Fate of Konor General

>>54359508

Sadly I'm in bumfuck Asia for the next few months and I'm going to miss it. I can only hope that the local Ig guy back home can hold the line since Mr and him are literally the only imperial players in our community and every one else is chaos or xenos and I don't think the xenos players will pitch in on our side.

>>54359508
>>54359508
The Tyranids of Hive Fleet Avidae are going all-in for the Imperium, purely because I'm fed up with Carnac and want to humiliate Chaos because of him.

>>54359678
Wait, what? Why the fuck are your Dark Eldar dudes helping Chaos? Have you no racial dignity after what happened with Slaanesh?

>>54359678

You mean are going to take advantage of the situation to fuck with the imperium and grab some slaves right? It's not like they'd be marching shoulder to shoulder with the Death Guard.

>>54359724
>>54359713
Well yeah we heard about this whole primarch business and decided we don't want the imperium getting too comfy.

>>54359508
Will the 500pts be the norm then? What type of lists do we need to bring to crush the imperium?

>>54359508
The Saim Hann craftworld happens to be travelling nearby, and several of our clans are eager for some sport

>>54359798
It sounds like it'll be an escalation league, so 500 in week one, but increasing across each week

>>54359798
Week 1 bonus is for Start Collecting! box units, so be prepared to see lots of baseline units.

Week 2 bonus points are for specifically Space Marine models. No word if this applies to Chaos Space Marines as well. So bring lots of AP on week 2!

>>54359698
My bugbrother, fucking same.

If Behemoth couldn't beat Ultramar, no fucking way in hell am I going to let Chaoscucks do it.

>>54359874
The Hive Mind guide you to victory, my spawn-mate.

Mechanicus of Forgeworld <shitty OC> will be fighting for the imperium, naturally.

>>54359976
>>54359698
Though your actions are misguided imagining an imperium/nid bro fist is kinda funny.

>>54359678
My Kabal is going to be aiding the Imperium, because as said in another thread "How can we steal their shit if they're dead?"

Chaos makes for poor slaves

>>54360026
Skirt the fringes swoop in after imperial victories and take them in their weakened state! Chaos controlled sectors breed more piracy and less rules and shit!

>>54360007
Pro tip, Konor itself is an AdMech world.

My Skitarii were fluffed from being from there long before I even knew this campaign was going to be a thing, purely because I wanted them to be close to the Ultramarines.

>>54359508
So far I don't really know much about how the campaign will go or whatever (my local manager hasn't had many/any details it seems like) but I plan on bringing my Still-Yet-To-Be-Named squat guard regiment.

>>54360075

You know what else chaos breeds? Shitty slaves who are already fucked up and tainted before you grab them that just bring trouble to your doorstep by drawing the eyes of the deamons to you.

>>54360098
Mine have purple robes, because I wanted to be super fucking special. I'm thinkign some kinda weird psychadellic world turned forgeworld with a big ol' datavault full of music for a backstory.

Yeah I was a bit confused lol. And that does sound hilarious, maybe I'll do that next. Mine are just green and silver.

>>54360219
It's been done before. Imperium just barely outnumbers Chaos+Xenos combined by a hair, and since more Xenos players are also siding with Imperium than with Chaos, and overall probably have the stronger factions balance-wise right now, Chaos is basically fucked for chances of winning this campaign. As it should be.

>>54360231
Who are you bringing to the fray OP?

>>54360247
OH SHI-

>>54360235
Different nid player than the guy you're responding too but, how much have you played against Tyranids that you think dealing a couple mortal wounds on 6's is ever going to be a problem for them?

>>54360251
Grey Knights. Yes, I realize 5 terminators with falchions only is 230pts. The Emperor protects.

Oh no like two of my two hundred models died. How will I ever recover?

Also pic related.

>>54360287
Damn son Well the best of luck to ya!

>>54360334
So I guess that stratagem would fuck over guard more than anything?

>>54360323
LOL

>>54360383
I think the Loebos stratagem is overrated. When used on a 50-model conscript squad, you can expect 8 models to die. It's also 2cp in a format that's very difficult to get battleforged in.

>>54360383
Deep-striking Scions says probably not.

>>54360410
It's only 1CP but it's still weaksauce against hordes. If anything power armour armies are the ones that should be scared of it. If some retard actually spends a command point to kill 5 of my 30 termagants I will laugh my ass off at him and then respawn them for free next turn with the tervigon.

The only time it seems like it would do anything to me would be against genestealers, but I just won't bring them within 3" of a forest if I don't have to. If my opponent hugs the forests with his juicy models so I have to get near them to charge, then I'll just use the stratagem on him.

>>54360410
>>54360400
Well free hits are still hits that's shit I didint even have to do anything really to kill I guess.

>>54360453
It's not free, you have to spend a CP.

>>54360249
Has Carnac garnered this much salt from /tg/?

>>54359508
>Play Xenos
I'm just going to cuck imperium as hard as I can.

>>54360523
Having to put up with his same autistic childish shitposting about belakuck and taufaggotry over and over for years will do that.

It's actually delicious irony that Carnac's autism about Chaos probably secured them losing any future campaigns because most Xenos players side with Imperium just because they're sick of faggots like him.

>>54360618
I play xenos and still have nothing but distain for tau.

>>54360579
>"gee why is the Emperor so xenophobic"

THIS

THIS IS WHY

>>54360579
>>54360675
Xenos players siding with Chaos are basically pathetic race-traitors.

Imperium has ALWAYS been the protagonists, but Chaos gloating this edition about being the main villains is insufferable. Watching them get btfo is a far better result for Xenos than the Imperium losing.

The Vanitor WARP SURGE Stratagem is ridiculously fucking good for 1CP.

>>54360523
Carnac is the bane of literally every fluff thread anyone tries to make, combining autistic Chaos-wank with an obvious gay crush on Be'lacuck, a character who only exists to get the shit beat out of him over and over again. He was shitposting on a thread about the Horus' opinion on Traitor Primarchs earlier today.

>>54360692
Agreed. Chaos must fall so we can reclaim our rightful place, and it starts on Konor. My Dark Eldar lend our strength to the Imperium.

>>54360732
You can't ruse me Vect, you just want more meat slaves!

>>54360692
This. Xenos can't have any major relevance until Chaos gets put back in the box. And Necrons have no love for Chaos, so I'd gladly march with the Imperials.

Isn't that basically a rap, how can Chaos even win at this point? Only issue are Tyranids who avoid Daemons.

>>54360941
Tyranids usually don't attack daemon worlds because it's unprofitable in biomass terms. That doesn't mean that they're scared of daemons, and certainly not of CSM.

You can tell when it's the genuine issue but people still act like stuck-up Chaosfags all the time.

It's actually very easy.
You just need to combine his talking points with your own latent autism.

>>54361102
Luckily for you Orks are overwhelmingly at an advantage for the first half of this campaign. As soon as we hit the higher points tiers, that advantage will be gone.

>>54361196
Nice try Abaddon.

>>54361196
No see its like this

>this campaign Xenos side with Imperium, btfo Chaos
>next campaign, Xenos faction whatever vs imperium; all the Xenos band together and Chaos being Chaos is too hung up on their loss years ago to get over it and fight against the Imperium as well
>Xenos win

and then GW ignores/alters the results to forge the narrative

>>54361196
Anon that just means the xenos will be fluffed as DOING SOMETHING. Losing as a credible threat is better than not showing up at all.

>>54361276
Pretty sure the next 2 campaigns with be imperium vs chaos either way, with it being imperium vs xenos after that no matter what.

The only thing that really matters is xenos banding together in all xenos campaigns to fuck whoever.

>>54361812

What is the next point increment after the 500 point week? I want to participate and might have enough for 1000 points but if it's 500, 1000, 1500, or something like that, I'm not going to try to rush 500 extra points of models and do bad paintjobs only to not even make it in time to begin with.

>>54361812
What can we expect from the missions? I see some tokens in the box spoilers. Are objective captures gonna be heavily emphasized?

>>54361812
When's it start? My LGS usually holds 40k night on Fridays.

>>54361812
How does the points thing work? Like the Start Collecting bonus, painting bonus, all that. Haven't done one of these since 3rd Edition

Ok, let's see what I can answer.
>>54361836
You mention point increments, but the only material in the packet hints heavily that the points and stuff are up to the organizer of the events, there's no dedicated schedule of events in the box; if GW proper has an internal schedule their stores are supposed to follow, we did not receive it. I might learn more once we're allowed to register for the campaign (email passcodes for registration haven't been sent out/ our store hasn't received it yet.)
>>54361845
I know only what's in the campaign box, which is mostly the swag for the campaign and the supplementary stuff. There IS a sealed envelope to be opened on the 27th that contains the first planet's mission rules.

I can confirm that there are strategems unique to each planet as well.

>>54361846
it starts the 27th which is a Thursday. You're good.

>>54361848
Hasn't been revealed yet, it's an online thing. I can say they stressed that the score from each planet does not roll over, so no faction taking an immediate lead.

>>54361849
weekly prizes are things like dice bags, wristbands, and buttons.

Out local meta is still settling. Horde seems good though.

I do feel it's worth noting the weekly themed unit types: Week 1 Start Collecting/Space Marines, Week 2 Elites, Week 3 Tanks, I don't have the thing in front of me, I don't remember week 4. Week 5 is Flyers/Fast Attack and Week 6 is Terrain/Lord of War.

Let's talk about the fact that week 1 is Start Collecting or Space Marines.

>Samafagging

>>54362449
The way the bonus works is that if you bring the listed thing in your army list that week, painted, you're supposed to earn double points for that first week. The fact that they made Space Marines as one of the things, basically guarantees Marines are claiming the first planet. Kinda bullshit in my opinion.

I don't know why you fretting too much. In Seasons of War, GW did special events in the campaigns that gave factions that were lagging behind soecial rules and abilities. GW will balance the campaign if there are issues,

>>54360158

That seems unfair. How will you use the planet's special stratagems then?

Nah

We want the Imperials to win, let them have another grand crusade or whatever it is they do.

And then I'm gonna steal their shit when they overextend and start pushing their boundaries again

>>54364146
There is no great crusade. The 13th Black Crusade was the Old Night. The Indominus Crusade was the Great Crusade and now its over. The Imperials are consolidating bow. If they win the war against Nurgle, the Imperium will be stronger than ever making the DE jobs a lot more harder.

>>54364190
nice try chaos

the monkeigh always try to expand, they can't help themselves; whether its a case of them leaving old worlds undefended or bleeding other targets like the Tau dry and leaving them easy pickings, either is good for business

Chaos is only good for softening them up and creating opportunities, if they win they make for slaves that are less than tractable

My DEldar are gonna be taking points from whoever is winning
I'd be most happy if it's a 0-0 stalemate, because I'm a salty bugger

>orks
>most likely gonna be attacking imperials

I figure they're most likely to win or be winning for GWs narrative. So making them lose will force them to forge a new narrative

Anyone thinks they won't pull a FoC with the results?
They want chaos winning, but since chaos players are shit unless they get broken rules they will lose, like the EoT.

>>54366565

the EoT campaign had chaos in possession of a monstrously powerful codex, chaos won almost everything while the imperium shat the bed and the eldar lost eldrad for being the only competent order faction and not rolling over for the forces of chaos

but geedubs didn't want chaos to win so they made up some shit about ground and space wars

Chaos won EoT - because the Imperials fought among themselves or wandered off.

Also, Ynnari Corsairs here, we chose Guilliman to lend hope to the Imperium, we will bring what aid we may - the Dreaming God's followers stand with the Imperium.

>>54366565
>Anyone thinks they won't pull a FoC with the results?

They definitely won't.

>They want chaos winning

If this was true they would release Death Guard before Space Marines.

>they will lose, like the EoT.

Chaos won EoT though.

imperials shat the bed and didn't even lose kell until the gathering storm came out

Rowboat to go full traitor if imperium loses!! Screen cap this.

>>54359508
My blood ravens will naturally be fighting for the imperium, dedicating our selves entirely to prove our loyalty once more

What list builders do you guys use?

>>54363039

I can confirm that Bloodbrides with +1S drugs are extremely dangerous in CC because they all have 3 attacks base. On that same note, Hellions with +1A drugs have similar CC capabilities, but are more fragile on the return swing.

>>54366823
Actually, the Chaos online community was very organised and 'gamed' the campaign system effectively by registering wins in swing marginals.

The Imperials had no coherent strategy until too late in the campaign. They were saved by the fact that in-store Battlefleet Gothic games were used to simulate the 'war in space', and that the Imperial fleet list outclassed the Chaos list at the time of EoT.

http://warhammer40k.wikia.com/wiki/Eye_of_Terror_Campaign - it's a good read.

>>54373664

My Kabal will be taking advantage of the chaos (hue) to raid both sides. The plan is to alternate dedicating victories to each side.

>>54359508
Hive Fleet Sirocco will be diverting all it's resources to peeling back those chaos victories. Can't devour all the biomass if chaos corrupts it all first

>>54374319
No. This was the one GW retconned.

It starts at 500 points and escalates right? Assuming I'm not wrong, this looks kinda fun for throwing some inquisiton into the mix;

500 points of Inquisitorial Redaction:
>Stormtrooper prime
>Stormtrooper command squad: 4 plasma guns
>Paladin squad: falchions
>Doomglaive dreadnought
>stormtrooper squad: 2 plasma guns

Dominus Èstevan Castilo is leading the 23rd Martian Experimentory Cohort to the Forge World of Konor, in order to support his brothers in the faith, as well as to test the new data network implimented into his army and the variety of technologies enstrusted to him to test.

Accompanying him are a variety of followers, first most of them his Daughter Izabelle Castilo. A Magos in her own right, she is a fanatic believer in the machine cult, rivaling even the Adeptus Sororitas, and had the Electropriests of Ahzermec at her command.

Also joining their retinue is the lone dragoon rider Alpha-23, otherwise known as Sir Roland the Swift. A failed neophyte of the Knightly House of Razorclaw, he was rejected from the Throne Mechanicum, and sent away to serve the omnissiah in another form. Yet, he still bares his prior homes colors. Other characters include the pessimistic Datasmith Kalen Dorvo, the Mad Lady Hellatrix of the Sicarian blade pack and the whimiscal K-ON 324 of the Infiltration clade.

My totall collection, so far, is:
1 Cannoness/Izebelle
1 Primaris Psyker/Psychic Cogitator to Izebelle
1 Datasmith/Kalen Dorvo
1 Sicarian Dragoon/Roland
2 Dominus/Èstevan and his body double
2 Kastellan/w Phosphor guns
3 Onager/w Neutron Laser
3 Kataphron Destroyers
5 Fulgurite Electropriests of the Static Spelucher Order
10 Infiltrators, 5/w Taser and Flechette and 5/w P-Sword and Carbine
10 Rangers
40 Vanguard


We shall bring holy order and blessed forcd to the disgusting entropy of Nurgle.

>>54377026

Yeah, but one of the guys who did an "ask me anything" yesterday said the exact escalation is up to the store owners.

I need to know how many weeks I'll be able to participate in because I have only have 1000 points mustered.

Would this be a good time to get back into the game? I haven't played since 3rd but my army is good to go.

>>54378654
Depends will you be bringing chaos a victory?

>>54377907
I like the gusto Anon! I'm rooting for the other team but I hope you have fun.

>>54359508
>500 point escalation
Oh thank God.

I have 3 penitents I'm trying to assemble. Should I rush them in or is 500 points to low to utilize them?

>>54378077
Now that I think of it, it'll be most likely 500 and popping up 500 to a final week of all-out madness at 3k, or go up 250pts to end at proper 2k. Dunno which

Though having just played a game with that list, it'll need revisions.

>>54378671

I will if I lose!

Both of these arguments are good. What is a xenos player to do?

>>54379910
Defeat Chaos. If Chaos declines, that leaves more room in the spotlight for xenos.

>>54379930
You know it's just gonna be the Tau right.

>>54379910
For now, go with the Imperium.
The more Chaos gets shit on, the better chance Xenos has of being a credible threat again.

Wouldn't it be smarter for chaos to have a win? At least to make the campaign interesting. Does anyone know how the games are recorded? Is it like the old days on a website with a battle report or what? If it's old style, seek out fellow members of your race and forge a narrative. Like if you're dark eldar always mention say a slave taking contest between the archons or a head taking contest among the wyches.

As the orks my narrative is my krew was sent by ghazghkull to 1) ensure a stalemate that way neither side will be strong enough to challenge him. 2) organize the incoming orks into ghaz's Waaaaagh. 3)waaaaaaagh

46KB, 697x350px

So quick question, do I have to run a start collecting box or could I field a patrol detachment of thousand sons with Ahriman at the head for Kanor?

>>54380729

I don't think it matters, you just need 500 points. I think I remember the GW writers mentioning Start Collecting sets in relation to the campaign, maybe you get extra points if you start with them or something? I'm not too sure.

>500 point sisters

>Canoness with Eviscerator + Inerfno
>1x3 Repentia
>1x Penitent
>1x Preacher
>2x5 Dommies with 8x Storm Bolters
>2x Storm Troopers with their hotshots

Opinion on my 500-points-exactly list?

Preacher + Repentia + Canoness follow the Penitent Engine in. Dommies provide bolter spam. Storm Troopers deal with anything else.

Mostly meant to be fun, but I do want a chance at winning. I guess I could drop my repentia and get another dommie squad...but..feels weird not to have them in with the Penitent.

>>54380228
Why not just submit as many wins as you can be bothered submitting, and not actually play any games

>>54380927

You have too few guys and you got some pretty squishy guys too, like the Repentia.

Just for example, if a cheeselord rolls up even with an average army like Space Marines, he could be rocking 30+ marines.

>>54380988
Yeah but with the dom's I'm putting out 48 storm bolted shots a turn assuming he gets close. Even at range I would out gun him. The scions help with that too. You are right I'm weak on bodies. Repentance and preachers can go for more sister bodes I guess?

>>54381078
>Even at range I would out gun him
>-1 BS
But what if he's Raven Guard :^)

>>54381078

At 500 I would certainly thing more primary troops is a good choice for any army. You definitely don't want 2 HQs at 500 unless you're IG. MT are really good but I'm not sure how good they are at 500.

>>54381088
No one here plays raven, almost all eldar, chaos,guard, or ultras

>>54381117
>Not playing Ultramarines as a blue-coloured Raven Guard successor chapter

>>54381104
For one point more dominions get that turn one extra move and more special weapons... but the MT are weaker but shoot harder for same cost.

>>54381117

Eldar definitely aren't in the top 4 played here

>>54380014
lolwut? When was this a thing?

>>54381117
>almost all ultras
>No one here plays raven

They will.

>>54381334

5E Deathstrikes had Range: infinite so people would prank other people by firing their deathstrikes off the board to someone on the other side of the store, or not even in the immediate area.

>>54381396
An army that's composed mostly of deep strikers that aren't Grey Knights IS tempting, I'll give you that

I'd like to participate in the campaign, but is fully-painted army a mandatory? I don't think I can paint 1850~2000pts army till the campaign start.

>>54383360

No, you simply get more points if you're fully painted.

>>54361221
Yes but his autism is a noticeable brand.

Did they announce on what limits are there? Like, which books can be used, points limit, and so on?

>>54380954
Because you report to your store who then reports to GW?

Where does it say you need to play at 500pts? Everything I've read mentioned that you just needed to play a game.

The ravenguard will teach the traitors to be afraid of the dark.
