It'd be smaller for sure. The legions didn't split up too much after the Heresy and GW just doesn't give a shit enough to fluff up the ones that did. There's a lot of chapters and warbands in the fluff with no symbol or color scheme at all still like Skyrar's Dark Wolves.

I mean they already have "your entire unit can get rerollable 4+ to get back up as long as 1 model remains in the unit, this costs 0 points unlike everything else that creates models."

May as well have rez your entire army for 1cp since the codexes are looking to be strictly superior to the indexes.

It's open-play apparently. I'm amazingly tempted to bring my Leviathan Dreadnought for the first couple of battles at 500 points, just because of how stupid that will be to deal with.

Which does cost, because no single unit can do that on its own. RP is 5+, with no reroll.

Also, doesn't matter if you keep getting back up, if you don't have mobility, or damage output to counter any other army this edition..
>>
>>54456846
People just forget Necrons exist because they're the most boring, bland army in the game. No offense to Necron players but it's basically true.

That's not going to happen just because Imperium loses. All that would happen would be Chaos players gloating more about being the big bads and making more shitty NPC memes. The last thing we need is for 40k to turn into more autistic power armour loyalist vs traitor wank like 30k. If Imperium wins at least we keep status quo.

They're different models man.

As I stated, replenishing models doesn't cost anything. Adding new models does.

Take Tervigon for example. You can make a new unit of Termagaunts but you have to pay or replenish a unit for free.
>>
>>54456897
Basic Cadian IG are also pretty bland but they at least have a lot more ability to be customized and converted and played in different ways.

Necrons could really use some more expanding to other themes than just DEATH and SPOOKY SKELETONS and SINISTER GLOWING GREEN MAGIC CRYSTAL TECH.

They could start by bringing back Pariahs.

It'd be cool if GW did an event where they'd ask players to make up some new chapters and warbands for them and take the ones that are the least shit (because let's be honest 99% of them won't be good) and make them canon or something.

It's the same shit with Tyranids, they are called NPC because we don't know their motive and their players get pissy anytime GW hints at some form of individual thought amongst them that makes them interesting

No it can only go up from here Anon! Honestly DE have really good rules from the index already. So the codex can only make them more awesome. You leaning toward cult of kabal more?
>>
>>54456917
It should cost 500+ points. I mean shit, the Scorpion does less average damage than that to a land raider and costs at least 662 points.
Of course if it wants to just barely outshoot it it will become less durable(yes, less durable than something that costs half as much as it) since it wont even have the pittance of a 5++ or 2+ armor.

You could probably find it easily enough with enough digging. People like to use the same UN across multiple games and websites and if he's active enough he's probably left enough little pieces around those websites to piece together a bigger clue like where he lives or what his job is.

Chapter Tactic: Enemies have -1 to hit from more than 12" away.

Stratagem: 1CP, a Raven Guard INFANTRY unit can be deployed in reserve and set up anywhere more than 9" away from any enemy models at the end of your movement phase.

Warlord Trait: Can't be Overwatched.

Relic: Jump Pack that re-rolls charges and the wearer can Advance+charge in the same turn.
>>
>>54456942
Blue horrors are strictly inferior to pink ones, same to brimstone. This also only happens once and doesn't add models to the unit.

It does add models to the unit. Pinks split into two Blues. Furthermore there's no way to stop them from doing it. If you wipe a whole Necron unit or a whole Termagant unit they can't replace dead ones, but you can wipe a whole unit of Horrors and have them all split in that same phase. That's why it costs points.

Dire Avengers are terrible and overpriced. A lot of people think the cost was a miscalculation or misprint since they're so absurdly expensive especially when compared with their PL value.

Also Dakkadakka amusingly put Dire Avengers in their own tier, below bottom tier: Dire Avengers.

Rangers are okay. Too expensive for so little damage output. But at least they can snipe characters so if you get really lucky rolls (4+ rends on a volley of 5-10 shots) they might make themselves useful.

Hemlocks aren't stupid OP. They're solid but also self-balancing thanks to the rule of 1 restricting more than one of them casting conceal. If you take a hemlock you're also locking all your warlocks out of their best power. They also cost more than 200 points which really hurts the wallet for your limited damage output.

The Tactic is pretty huge for a gunline army, and you can always use one of the generic Space Marine Warlord Traits and/or Relics that works better for you and save your CP for Space Marine Stratagems. You aren't actually forced to play melee to make the most of their abilities.

The other gunline options would be Salamanders, Ultras, or IF.

Yeah, I've been surprised so far at how little information I can find about this.

Unfortunately it takes about 2 years for larvae to turn into adults, and after that the species will live for up to a year. Once I actually have the larvae I'm going to post occasional updates and maybe some lore building threads with a trip, so keep an eye out if you're interested.

>>54457305
Thanks for the info. I was personally thinking of leaving them unpainted, and painting the marines in the style of the beetles. They will be the species I posted in the pic, so tan with black spots.

My initial thought was using a head strapped to the front of a rhino or tank, and smaller pieces wherever I could. Similar to space wolves but beetles. It all depends on how big they grow, though. Can reach up to three inches. I definitely agree they would make good basing for larger models.

Turns out all of the special rules like Chapter Tactics, Stratagems and so on are Detachment based, not Army based. So you can actually mix and match quite effectively.

You can take all your shooty units in an Ultramarines/IF Detachment to be able to ignore cover or fall back and shoot, and all your melee units in a Black Templars Detachment to re-roll charges, and all your bikes in a White Scars Detachment and so on.

Kind of busted.

It's going to change every time a Codex comes out, once a year across the board for everyone in the Chapter Approved books, and possibly more often than that if absolutely necessary.

For example, if we still see Stormraven spam winning too many tournaments after this book is released, they might do something about it.

Nah I already have my color scheme, I'm just wondering which chapter tactic to use it on.

It's part of a chapter painting contest, I was given a randomly generated name and mandatory color. So I've got the Thunder Eaters that have to use Rakarth Flesh as an important color in the basecoat. I'm doing kind of a gradient, rakarth flesh on the lower legs and hands, then the upper legs and torso is done with a lighter blue (Either P3 Frostbite or Fenrisian, not sure which yet), and the head, shoulders, and backpack is done with lightning bolt blue.

WHY DOES THE REPULSOR TANK HAVE SO MANY FUCKING GUNS.

HOLY FUCK IT PUTS THE STORMRAVEN TO SHAME WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS.

>Turret Main Gun: Heavy Onslaught Gatling Cannon // Las-talon
>Front-mounted: Twin Heavy Bolter // Twin Lascannon
>Pintle-mounted: Ironhail Heavy Stubber // Onslaught Gatling Cannon
>Rear-mounted: Icarus Ironhail Heavy Stubber // Icarus Rocket Pod // Stormbolter // Fragstorm Grenade Launcher
>Turret-front-mounted: Two Krakstorm Grenade Launchers
>Turret-side-mounted: Two stormbolters // Two Fragstorm Grenade Launchers
>Side-mounted: Auto launchers // Two Fragstorm Grenade Launchers
>Co-axial turret mounted: Optional extra Ironhail Heavy Stubber

This means you could take a Heavy Onslaught Gatling Cannon, Twin Heavy Bolter, Onslaught Gatling Cannon, Two Krakstorm Launchers, Two Fragstorm Launchers, three Stormbolters, and an extra Heavy Stubber, for a total of 12 + 6 + 6 + 2 + 2D6 + 12 + 3 shots within 12", or 48 shots on average with more than half of those shots having AP -1 and S5 or better

Or you can swap some of that out for more anti-tank or anti-flyer

And it has PotMS so you don't get a penalty for moving and shooting all the heavy weapons

Originally I was calling mine the Kabal of the Severed Soul, but then after googling it to make sure it wasn't already taken, I found out that the Kabal of the Severed Soul was mentioned on a single page of Warhammer Visions. I didn't want to take the chance of GW writing them into some non-Marine BL book and completely messing me up. So I chose to go with the Kabal of the Torn Soul instead. Side note, I need to get more army pictures...I bet people are tired of seeing this one.

>Cool battle story
I ran them as Ynnari back in 7th and my Archon managed to wipe a Guardsman squad, get the Soul Trap boost from the Sergeant, and then Soulburst into the Commissar and murder him, too. Not sure if we could do that, my bud and I were still learning about Ynnari and how they just told the rules to go fuck themselves.

Necrons are really good. Their durability is the best in the game and their one and only weakness is lack of good tank killing guns. No idea why people are saying they're bad other than typical /tg/ stupidity or trying to misdirect people.

If you like Necrons you should be fine, they've been extremely good for over 6 years without any breaks.

I want a 40k game that allows players to join any faction in the lore, with the main objectives being to defeat outdoor raid bosses that are daemons, world pvp with other players, and donating resources you've earned that improves your faction homeworld granting you passive bonuses. All factions are able to attack other homeworlds, but must fight through their defense, while those aligned with Chaos can immediately enter the center of the strongest faction in the game, completely bypassing exterior defenses to set up a nuke to blow the base to smithereens and make them the weakest faction.

Why wouldn't they?

For fun, and maybe a cut of the profits.

The closest we have today is Eternal Crusade, or at least it would have been if the dev-team was actually competent. I just got finished with about 3 hours of "lascannon ONLY" gametime on my Ork Character.

You haven't lived until you've insta-gibbed 30 people in a single round with a dumbed-down lascannon that requires 2-seconds of continuous lock-on in order to fire. And then the 'end of round' chat is literally nothing but
> "Wtf was with that lascannon? This one dude kept insta-gibbing me"
> "Holy shit lascannon griefing OP pls nerf"
> "I got sniped while sprinting to another building. WTF"

So I'm confused. If I have two fast attack units, does that let me field two transports?
>>
>>54458781
Not anymore. The Codex overwrites them.
>>
>>54458812
Yes
>>
>>54458812
You can field one Dedicated Transport for each choice that is not a Dedicated Transport.

If you have an HQ, a Troops choice, and two Fast Attack choices, you can add up to 4 DTs.

pretty sure mutant primaris marines have already been mentioned. In the first article about them I'm pretty sure.

that aside primaris marines would be a good base for converting the Dragon Claws. They'd look less lanky after being made taller.
>>
>>54458807
passive buff circles would work well.
Psykers would be more than a little tricky
picking powers, warp charges, both generating/using and how does denying work? It opens up a plethora of AIDS to be fixed, though it could be designed like arty where to be used effectively it needs 24/7 micro to gain it's points back.
Also deep striking would be interesting, factions would need interceptor systems to deal with lists spamming deep strikers, adding in a new type of unit. Also orbital bombardments and other support abilities would be fun to have like C&C which are always cool.
And it'd be nice to have proper objectives like attack/defence maps and more than 2-way battles with certain factions being grouped for certain maps, though theses alliances would cause salt similar to cron+BA fuckfest did
>>
>>54458750
It's plausible, just not exactly 100% like what you describe. It'll be a lobby created game which main focus on PVP, get your squad, drop on map, complete objective, get out. It's Helldivers, but now with option to "invade" other player game, which work like a PvP mode.

>>54458859
I wouldn't ape the tabletop system at all for psykers. Each races psyker's would just have their own set of preset abilities, as the scale of the game just doesn't lend itself well to that kind of thing. Most AA could easily double as counter deep strike.

>>54458835
Thanks buddy. I have shit internet and can't display youtube at a resolution high enough to see the datasheet details.

So, non-Badab War Xth-Founding Chapters are forbidden from using any special characters now?
>>
>>54458946
no, assuming you had special characters for the chapter to use in the first place.
>>
>>54458859
There's no reason to really have any system for picking powers and warpcharges. Just a basic few powers for each psyker would work fine. Probably just give them "modes" where they swap between offensive powers, basically smite, and a buff mode depending on psykers like wyrdvanes and an active ability on more powerful individual psykers.

Or you could just disregard most psykers as units and must make them some sort of off map support or a support unit. There's plenty of large scale powers.

So I am reading the new Alpha Legion novel that features Celestine. Celestine descends on the planet from space and flies to the planet's surface. What the fuck is this ANIME bullshiz? The conditions of space and the planet's atmospheric forces should have rekt her.

So since the new space marine codex does indeed have price changes what price changes would you like to see for you army?

I'm hoping Obliterators and Mutilators cost less, if they don't flat out remake their rules that is.
>>
>>54458946

If you use your proper rules, yes. It's really dumb. So <Marines Errant> can't use any named HQs. GW says it's because "Calgar and Sicarius only lead the Ultramarines, not other chapters."

The problem here is why the fuck wouldn't you just call yourself <Ultramarines> to use those characters even if your army is painted <Marines Errant>.
>>
Why are the new things up for pre-order in aussie land and sheep shagging land, but not the rest of the world?
>>
>>54459174
You just paint them like Marines Errant and use the rules for another chapter from the codex. using <Ultramarines> doesn't mean you can't just call your guys Marines Errant.

Good, maybe the named character cancer will die down a bit.

They should still be banned without opponent's permission like back in the older editions.

It's based on the local time of the country. Generally 10am Saturday of the latest time zone in the country.
>>
>>54459199
Most of the named characters were nerfed to shit anyway.
>>
>>54458083
My average list is Celestine, 3 squads of Custodes, 2 Dreads, 2 Land Raiders, and 2 Knights.

All painted and they blend really well on the table. It's not a strong army but it's a fun one.
>>
>>54459198

HOLY SHIT.

Kharn has marked Celestine for a blood donation. Who do you think will win?

A price drop in Reavers; doesn't have to be huge, bit they're a little bit overcosted now.

I'm not sure if this has happened (probably not) but I think the Vindicator is a bit too expensive now too.

if you field 3 and use the stratagem you can deal an enemy HQ an automatic 3+3d3 Mortal wound.

>>
>>54459239
Even a point reduction can't save Reavers, they're just crap in melee and have fuck all for weapon options. I'm ripping the weapons off mine, putting dark lances on them and using them as FW corsair cloud dancers. The difference in cost will pretty much be like one dark Lance.

Fall back is a move and thus -1 to heavy weapons, Smurfs can fire after falling back with -1, so it's at a -2 and thus gets hot on a 3.

Though why anyone would ever overcharge then is beyond me.

Unless I'm mistaken, I assume that plasma only gets hot on unmodified *natural* rolls of a 1.
>>
>>54459622
You are mistaken. Why post when you don't know what you are talking about?
>>
>>54459622
No, the only time anything uses unmodified rolls is when it explicitly states "a roll of x, irrespective of modifiers". Things like overwatch uses unmodified rolls, gets hot uses modified rolls.

>>54459643
Fair enough
>>
>>54459668
In this instance, wouldn't the plasma only get hot on say a roll of a 2 (assuming -1 penalty)? Or can you not modify a dice roll below a 1?
>>
>>54459622

This is the common sense interpretation, yes.

>>54459668

However this is GW we're talking about.

So if an ultramarine falls back and shoots a Ghostkeel over 12 inches away at night with a heavy plasma weapon, he would theoretically overheat on any roll of 6 or less.
>>
>>54459638
Imagine how dead these threads would be.
>>
>>54459691
you cannot below 1
>>
>>54459698
kek
>>
>>54459691
-1 for moving and -1 for firing after falling back using smurf chapter tactics, so -2. Roll a 3, apply modifiers, the roll is now 1 and thus kills/injures the firing unit.
>>
what would be a fluffy steel legion army? are there certain units they use more of then others, and some units they dont use? do they use artillery much, or are they more mechanised infantry, rocket launchers, grenade launchers and sentinels? how about hellhound to russ ratio? im not too worried about flyers, or lords of war for the list right now

The base doesn't look like a regular 40k one.
I don't see the little nipple that the slotless ones have and it looks slightly too tall for its diameter.
>>
>>54459697
Conversely anyone firing with a +1 to hit can literally never get hot even though they count as having missed on a 1 because for some reason natural 1s count for hitting but not getting hot.
