Almost done with my Harlequins list, just need some advice for finishing touches:

1 Troupe Master - Embrace, Fusion - 73
1 Solitaire - 117
2 Death Jester - 150
8 Harlequins - Embrace, Fusion - 232
8 Harlequins - Embrace, Fusion - 232
6 Skyweavers - Zephyrglaive - 264
1 Starweaver - 99
EMBARKED
1 Shadowseer - 134
5 Harlequins - Fusion - 120
1 Starweaver - 99
EMBARKED
1 Shadowseer - 134
5 Harlequins - Fusion - 120

This comes to 1774 points. Do I throw in 7 more kitted out clowns, or do I throw in another Starweaver with 5 Harlies and fusion pistols? Either way I'm gonna have ~10 points leftover.

for the 7th to 8th edition buttblasted:

I want to start a new army for 8th.

I've been playing Eldar until now. The problems I have with Eldar are the following;

1) Limited Conversion Options
2) Overly "clean" making them very hard to paint. One small mistake ruins the look of the model.
3) Related to #2, but its hard to pull things like drybrushing, or washing or "quick painting" techniques on Eldar models well. Doing so makes them look ugly as fuck.

Is there any army that you guys can recommend that can scratch my itch?

>>54563088
CSM or Orks. You can pretty much do fucking everything conversion-wise on them and it'll fly, they're very detailed while still having some flat spots, and those details shine a lot more with techniques like drybrushing and washes.

I’ve always wanted to do a Ordo Hereticus Inquisition army after first seeing pic related but I’m not sure what models to get exactly. So far I’ve got Greyfax and two squads of Tempestus Scions to use as inq stormtroopers. I was thinking rhinos for transport but I have no idea what else I would need. I only really want a small force of about 1k points or so.

>>54563209
use chimeras instead of rhinos
also get a hellhound or two because fire

>>54563088
CSM, specifically Nurgle if you want to try converting models with green stuff and you can really have lots of fun painting things dirty. I got back into 40k a year ago because of Nurgle conversions.

I have been advised that Exorcists are shit, so I tweaked this list a little. Any other feedback?

I'm looking to start a CSM army and can't decide between Iron Warriors and Black Legion.

IW are easier to paint and I feel I can get away with less chaos spikes and frills on the tanks.

BL however have Abaddon and I like the idea of playing the poster boy force, plus it's more thematic for them to be old school composition with a squad of Plague marines etc mixed in.

Thoughts?

Wtf did they do to these guys and why are they so utterly zaney? Its too much even for 40k standards.

what is pic related supposed to be? why are marines riding wolves? wouldn't the size and weight of marines break their backs in two? i remember wulfen being these eye of terror dudes corrupted by the warp, but now their models look terrible.

Honestly, he's going to be just a bloodthirster in stats anyway,

>>54563491
It's because wolf players are degenerates and GW will cater to those degenerates.

I always forget just how bad that model is. Count the wolves /tg/ I dare you.

I think some of it is fine. Like the thunderwolves or wulfen. Wulfen being like some crazy bersker going too far stuff. But everything being called "wolf this" or the wolf chariot is just retarded.

GW just decided to rub it in your face and make them completely ridiculous, even a little embarrassing to collect.

I don't agree with that choice of gold. It's too yellow, especially if he is going to paint it as beaten metal with that much dark spots on it. There's nothing wrong with the paintjob itself, just that one choice of color. Should've used a more orange or dark gold, or bronze or something.

Had a 1000 pt game tonight against Tau who had two commanders with fusion blasters, several squads of fire warriors, a single missile broadside, and six squads of drones. I was surprised he didn't bring more broadsides.

I had a Tech-Priest, grav servitors, sniper Rangers in a tower, plasma Vanguard, Infiltrators, a neutron Onager, and three dragoons. Even though as Imperium I was defending, I still managed to seize and started wiping out drones with Infiltrators and stripped most of the wounds off the broadside Turn One. The infiltrators charged into the commander and after that it was pretty one-sided, though the second commander dropped in mid-game and took out the last of my grav destroyers, Vanguard, and Tech-Priest. However, the sniper Rangers took him out in turn. The dragoons spent their time wiping out fire warrior and drone squads, being a huge distraction well worth the points, but if I hadn't gotten first turn, I suspect things would have been quite different for me.

Did anyone play any Fate of Konor games today?

We did a 3v3, 1000 points each player game today. On our side it was Custodes and Primaris, next guy was some Supreme Detachment of Celestine, Draigo and other Terminator Librarians and me as Guard. Enemy was Orks, Necrons and Eldar.

The Custodes and Primaris guy lost like a couple of Custodes and took some wounds on his Land Raider. The Supreme Detachment guy lost the Celestine twins a few times, but otherwise didn't get hurt. Lots of my units either got killed or severely hurt. Eldar were completely wiped out, Orks still had a lot left, but it wasn't going to help them because it was all these grot artillery type guns that were S8 and stationary all game. Necrons had a good amount left, but I had pushed them pretty far back with Conscripts.

Highlights were me burning a command point to re-roll the seize after someone else failed. Rolled and didn't even look, just heard everyone go "OOOOH". The Necron guy rolled 10 out of 11 Warrior reanimations on a 4+ thanks to his lord guy. An Astropath used his 1D6 Smite attempt and killed an Ork Warboss. Custodes had an epic battle with a Wraithknight that I couldn't see at all thanks to terrain, but I heard it was cool. The Custodes then proceeded to sit in a Land Raider the rest of the game and the Primaris Marines sat in cover and took pot shots all game. Once most of my stuff died, all that was left was the tall boys to be victorious.

>>54563826
I use to believe that but then GSC came back from death

>>54563804

IW are super easy to paint because non-bright silver is super easy to paint thanks to Nuln Oil and decent metallic acrylics. It's only hard when you get to the hazard stripes. Compare IW to Lamenters and tell me they're not easy. IW are the Necrons of Space Marines.

It was actually a tight game. I had a lot more trouble with his blight drones than I anticipated, and they wound up eating my Inquisitor and the Custodes I brought.

Did you fucking read the image

>>54564047
Gurantee you that the "renegade chapter" is the Crimson Slaughter.

>>54563906
Did you beat him to death or did he flee? Also is the game still going? What's performing well in your game?

Everything performed pretty well, but I was targeted by 2 armies most of the game so some stuff got crippled early on like Pask and the Manticore, so they still did well enough all things considered. Conscripts still have proven to be a fantastic nuisance. Astropaths did way better than I expected, especially with 1D6 Smite. I decided to ditch infantry squads in favor of more Conscripts and Heavy Weapon Squads and I'm very happy with that decision.

>>54563953
Oh wow. DG are going to be my second army and I have 2 Drones. They look pretty neat. Glad to hear they are tough. Was he running a pure Dread list? What kind of stuff did well for you?

>>54564076
Aren't there like 12 guys left

And a helbrute

>>54564072
Yes and that didn't answer my question. Death Guard are getting their own codex; Thousand Sons will likely as well. Therefore EC and WE might get one or they might not.

>>54564076
Yeah I think it is. Kranon got rules.

>>54564083
>implying any of these CSMshits will take a drop pod in its current incarnation

If you'd notice, once 8E dropped all of them suddenly went quiet after bitching about not having drop pods for years, even though they had dreadclaws and kharybdis and other shit already.

alright 40kg, ive finally chosen the army im going to get. after thinking for ages and finally having the money and time for it ive decided i will go for thousand sons.

that being said i was also tempted to buy the start collecting age of sigmar box (yes i know this isnt aosg) and using painting up the stormcast eternals and probably selling the chaos half.

would someone be able to recommend a set of paints and shades for thousand sons? i was thinking they would use some of the same things as stormcast eternals like retributor armor and reikland fleshshade as they are both blue and gold minis overall.

>>54564088
Not until he becomes a Primaris.

>>54564095
I wish more factions stayed barely alive like this

How fucking easy would it be to paint 12 guys and a Helbrute and have "the" Crimson Slaughter army. Or paint like 2 dudes and a Dreadnought and have the surviving Lamenters.

Fuck this hundreds of guys shit. Let me paint like two units and I'm done.

>>54564106
Aren't dreadclaws just better drop pods anyway? Why complain about having to use better gear?

>>54564083

That hair style is the most stupid shit I ever see in my entire life.

>>54564144

But that head has been there as a regeneration option for the 'fex since long before OOE's model was squated. Tgey literally just took a behemoth showcase model and slapped OOE next to it. Not that that's a bad model, but still, an alt 'fex model would be killer.

>>54564161
Normal marines can be upgraded, GW said so on a stream.

>>54564076
Nah, its just gonna be a <renegade> keyword to make your own shit and represent crimson slaughter AND red corsairs.

Quick question; when theres a new founding of Space Marine Chapters, who decides the names and colour schemes in universe?

Is it something the founding Chapter does, or it determined by some pencil pusher in the Administratum? I would like to know for Your Dudes reasons.

>>54564121
Because a Dreadclaw is 200 points and a Kharybdis is 300 for drop pods.

>>54564125
yfw it comes out smaller than the index list.

>>54564131
He'd never go in Gravis Armour, but I'd love to see him with T6. If buffing him up to Primaris does what it should, he should be S6 T6 W7 or something. Rockfist should be S6 T5 as a Primaris. Mephiston isn't anything special. Or wasn't. He's special cause he got buffed by the Black Rage event. If a better skilled dude conquered it, they'd be better than Mephiston. As it is, Mephiston is just a slightly tougher Marine. He lost his Flying power and Fleet. At leas he gained a good FnP type buff. He was shit without one in 7th.

>>54564146
That Mephiston book where he comes to terms with it has him think that conquering the Black Rage is part of the goal of all Blood Angels and it unlocks the true potential of BA's by doing it. I can't remember how it ends, something like 'just be urself!'.

I'm pretty sure the Chapter decides it if they are successors from a specific First Founding chapter. Their daddies usually give them a few veterans to lead the chapter which helps influence the color schemes and naming conventions.

What's performing well are the Infiltraitors and Dragoons, both very fast flanking assault units that can potentially grab objectives, disrupt gunlines, or at least demand a certain amount of shooting to address which means squishy guys like Skitarii can move upfield and into range.

Nobody (maybe not even GW) is sure yet whether chad marines will entirely replace classic marines or not. Either way it's gonna take a loooong time before it happens, because GW is not gonna retire the molds for those recent marine models, that would basically make them wasted money.

Battalion +3 CP
Chief Librarian Tigurius 130
Captain (A) 80
w/ power sword and storm shield
Apothecary 55
3xTactical squad 77+77+77
Sgt w/SB+CS
3 marines + 1 HB
3x Razorbacks 102+102+102
W/ twinAC, SB

Spearhead +1 CP
Captain (B) 80
w/ SB, PS
Predator 201
w/AutoC, LC sponsons
Devastator Squad 237
Sgt w/ SB, Ammo Cherub

Devastator squad 170
Sgt w/ bolter, Ammo Cherub
4 ML

Vanguard +1 CP
Primaris Lieutenant 74
Apothecary 55
Company Ancient 63
Venerable Dreadnaught 153

Should come in just under 1850, and net 8CP. Plan is the battalion rides out to objectives while spearhead and vanguard castle up. Dev marines cushion the lascannons and characters, company ancient helps Ld and lets dudes shoot when they drop, Apothecary gets them back up, and the Cpt. And Lt. reroll 1's on to hit and to wound rolls.

Drop psilencers for psycannons. Psilencers are funky and no longer steaming hot garbarge, but still don't outperform a Psycannon.
Purgation squad should have 4 Psycannons.
One Grand Master is usually enough, GK are such a small army you don't really need two of the same support characters to spread the buff around.
Razorbacks can't have a twin linked autocannon.

not true

Dumb army I'm thinking about for 100 PL defending konor:

Spearhead detachment
Captain with combi grav, jump pack, relic blade

4 full devastator squads with 5 bolter marines each, and split between the squads are 4 lascannons, 4 heavy bolters, 4 missile launchers, 2 plasma cannons, 2 grav cannons

Vanguard detachment
Chaplain
Apothecary
5 cataphractii with heavy flamer, 2 chainfists, 2 double LC, 1 power sword
Relic contemptor with kheres and chainfist
Stormraven with AC, HBs, and MMs carrying the detachment

The scenario this week is biased heavily in favor of imperials. Hopefully next week is the opposite or this whole campaign is going to be a fucking slog.

>>54564965
No doubt. Might actually give the raven typoons to throw more frag missiles around. Can split off some of the bolter marines in combat squads to be speedbumps.

Is there a limit to base size size on miniatures? I'm not sure if I can mount something on a bigger base or not

>>54564021
Vect, Drazhar, and fucking Tigirius. Tigirius's mini is a steaming pile of re-digested dogshit and smegma. I want to slap whoever approved that atrocious mini design and said "Yeah, this looks good. Ship it."

>>54564992
>biased heavily in favour of imperials
Is it though? seems like the attacker just needs to keep at least half their units alive, and with the 1CP stratagem that allows them to advance and charge, they should be able to alpha strike super hard

The current ghazzy is a warboss for ants. He needs to be at least 3 times larger. Considering his stats are now dreadnought-tier I think his size should match.

>>54565087
Yes.

Well... depends. A trend I've noticed is that really fat players are the WAAC tryhards who copy netlists, while the players who actually create those original lists and win tournaments with them are all /fit/ chad looking assholes.

Your opponent has to kill 50% of your army and not get tabled to win. You on the other hand are playing to keep more than 50% of your army alive or table your opponent.

Assuming equally powerful armies, you will never have half your army alive at the end of turn 5.

Your opponent also has a very large deployment zone. That hugely benefits them if they're playing melee and works out
slightly in their favor if they're shooty.

Attacker's advantage is advancing and charging, this is only useful if you're a melee army and don't already have the ability to do this. Tau aren't going to get shit for this week. And to balance it out the Defender gets rerolls to hit on overwatch and penalties to charge range.

As the attacker you are looking to get an overwhelming victory via curbstomping your opponent. As defender all you have to do is not get curbstomped when you have the advantage. ergo the scenario favors defender.

>>54565124
Lasgun. Get hype. Now if it was a gothic boobplate, we'd blow up.

Oldmarines aren't worth the resources it takes to support them so they were ordered to turn in their wargear and join the Guard.

As best I can tell there are no rules for base sizes anymore

duncan lays down a fucking huge list of paints so i was expecting to have maybe 5 or 6 paints for thousand sons,
something like:
retributor armmor,
thousand sons blue
nuln oil(not sure if necessary)
reikland fleshshade
imperial primer (cant spray where i am)

can someone suggest what to use for the tabards and the metal parts on their weapons? probably a dumb request but i want to be able to know exactly what im looking for when i walk in.

Hate is a strong word, but I don't like how it looks like an inflated regular boxnought.
At least it doesn't have a beergut obscuring 50% of it's vision

>>54565180
Imba scenarios are fun once in a while. As long as GW mixes up who they favor or provides enough interesting variations you can't really complain too much.

I think what I liked least about playing this scenario was that the special rules all cost CP. Like unless you're bringing a brigade or more to your game, 2CP for the stratagems is expensive. I would have preferred a ONCE PER GAME cost or a passive buff instead. The flaw of once per game though is just that you declare your counter-charge ability in response to the supercharge and it's all a wash.

>>54565225
If you don't want to throw down for paints consider mixing. Like you can get Light blue, neutral blue, and dark blue from a pot of white, black, and blue but Duncan is just going to tell you to buy Baharroth Blue, Enchanted Blue, and Night Lords Blue because that will guarantee consistency and he doesn't give a fuck about painting budget.

His guides are still worth following even if you don't bring the exact colors he suggests.

Ghaz isn't offensively bad. Its just too small.

>>54564997
I suggest you combat Squad it up just so your enemy is more likely to waste shots on a near dead 5-man unit versus letting those shots carry over to the rest of an only half-dead 10-man. What's more than that, of you're running combat squads you'll never have to worry about moral, since at that point the squad is wiped anyway.

>>54565411

The issue with combat squads is you do it before deployment, which means you deploy them separately and therefore have a larger likelihood of going 2nd

My list doesn't have them in transports, so

>>54565530

Actually, transports don't have to be assigned. You just deploy the transport and say what's inside.

>>54565558
Yes, I know. My list does not have transports for these devastators. The only transport is a stormraven and that's already full.

>>54565446
>>54565427
Well it depends on the cover available and what enemy you're fighting, but going second isn't always terrible. The only time any of my ideas work though is if you have good cover or a place to hide your troops without sacrificing mobility.

First off, of you're going second then that means you should be able to figure out your enemy's plan just from his deployment and first move. This'll allow you to use your first turn to cockblock him as hard as you can, while he spent his just trying to get a volley off at whatever looked scary.

Also, you'll have a cover advantage while he'llprobably have none, assuming he moved everything up. You'll get to pop out of your cover and be able to fire at anything you want without worrying about cover while he had to do the opposite (in the best case scenario).

To say it as clearly as possible, if you can hide all your good stuff then if you go second you can waste your enemy's first turn while still being able to utilize yours to its full potential. It's a great way to run out the clock against attrition-based horses, or to neuter shooting-based armies since now you're playing 5 shooting phases against 4.

Yeah, try that theory against tyranids. The difference between being charged at the beginning of turn 2 and the end of turn 2 is the difference between winning and losing the match. And hell, sometimes it happens turn 1 anyway.

>>54563620
>rifling on that massive bore cannon

It would be fucked after one shot.

>>54565632
The idea is to neuter the enemy shooting phase, so yeah no never try that against a melee-heavy army.

how viable are nidzilla armies in this edition?

I hear a lot about gaunt spam, but less about carifexes, trygons, and hive tyranids (and to a lesser extend, warriors)

>>54565656
Well, melee horde armies are the current top armies in the meta. The only top tier army that would help against is guard.

>>54565668
I've lost every match vs genestealer spam and won every match vs nidzilla.

Just shoot flyrants with lascannons and they die easy enough. You can only invest so many points into tyrant guard.

>rest of points in close range tanks, maybe a baneblade variant or something

>>54565124
Marbo ripper gun

>>54565798
The problem with nidzilla is the best defense against big guns is tying them up in melee. If you've got some flyrants and hive crones or whatever going around charging stuff, the few things that got engaged can fall back and the rest of the army shoots you. You really need some 20 model genestealer blobs around to do some work. 30 model hormagaunt units will do in a pinch, they won't kill things but can spread out to engage a lot of units which limits return fire.

>>54565679
Well who even cares about tiers? It's not like people can switch armies at the drop of the hat so what you play against is going to be all over the place, unless you're going to a tournament or something. Basically, if the enemy is shooty, and you've got cover, then you can pull this. If you can't fill both of those criteria, don't do this.

>>54565833
I hear you there
