Chaos players what are you doing to contribute to the war effort? codex bearing reinforcement is coming for the imperium. Find a grey store in your vicinity and cap that bitch! Every model painted is a fresh coat of icor for your favorite plague marine! Every battle won is another skull for the mantel of your best zerker! Get in there fight the good fight and provide a new bottle of astroglide for a slanneshi ass hole! Every strategem point spent for the effort is a "Just as planned." For your favorite lovcraftian blob/bird hybrid!

>>54622372

That's good but they'd get that anyway as all SoB units have the Ministorum keyword. It just means they get no benefits from most acts of faith, which makes them shittier.

Still pouting over color scheme on Wraithlord. And over the fact that its joints were all covered so I couldnt pose it the way I wanted and the pose I did give it while I left it to dry kinda drifted to a static pose.

>>54622296
I doubt it.
From the leak we got CSM codex will have 8 Legion Tactics. 1 for each Legion plus 1 for Renegades.

From how I read that. 1/8 of the tactics is Renegade while the remaining 7 are for Legions.

There are 9 Legions so 2 are being dropped. Death Guard are an obvious one and Thousand Sons for the other

>DG and TS are now Blood Angel / Dark Angel tier, CSM that live outside the vanilla codex.

>>54622400
That's actually pretty reasonable

Wont be the case though. GW believes IW have an irrational hatred of buildings

What's some good Forgeworld units for Orks and Deathguard? Visiting Warhammer World on a trip to Northern England so I figured I would get some stuff at the Forgeworld store there. Never used any FW models aside from the Big Trakk in 7th sometimes so pretty oblivious as to what to get.

Supposed CSM Traits

-Night lord trait should be : -1 ld by nl unit around you (6" and stack)
-Iron warriors : +1 in cover and -1 vs covers
-World Bearers : Reroll moral.
-Emperors Childrend : Always pile in first (WTF?)
-Black legion : +1 ld and a bonus for advancing and shooting (too small)
-World eaters : Pass all morale while in melee
-Alpha legion : Deep strike at 12" from ennemies.

It's basic but I really want a general angry mob option for the Ministorum. A huge army of shittily armed civilians to use as a meat shield for the Emperor's glory. It'd add a ton of conversion options and add some flavour to any Imperial army. Plus it'd be a simple way of adding Necromunda units to 40k.

Failing that, a Sister Famulous.

>>54622628
That sounds pretty damn fun/funny I'd rock with it.

>>54622497

I know for vanilla marines they're basically immune to it via high Ld, low model squads, and ATSKNF

Granted the SM codex already came out, so this would have to be in CA, but either one of two things:
Either give all the HQs the ability to take special and heavy weapons, or bring back marine field police, preferably clad in armor like the imperial space marine was.

We have the same leadership by no ATSKNF. Unless your taking cultists or big marine blobs it's still not really a problem because you're not taking enough models for it to matter.

More like
-Night lords: -1 to hit them with shooting if they're within 12"
-Iron warriors : no penalty for moving and shooting with heavy weapons, -1 model lost to moral to a minimum of 0
-Word Bearers : Reroll charge distences
-Emperors Children : Always strikes first
-Black legion : death to the false emperor activates on a 5 or 6 (4, 5 or 6 with icon of excess)
-World eaters : can advance and charge
-Alpha legion : When they advance in the fight phase they may advance in any direction they wish rather than towards the closest, even if it takes them out of combat.

Odd question, but since orks loot tech, can say, the Imperium re-loot, looted tech, from the orks if given the opportunity? I understand that manufacturing of many human technologies has been lost but the Imperium still has a number of things it knows well how to make, like many tanks, so if a guard regiment or a space marine deployment kills a fuckbucket of orks and disables a looted land-raider or two, or doesn't completely reduce the tanks to scrap, would id be possible to remove all the orky shit for reclamation?

Ork vehicles aren't really just modified stolen vehicles but more like:
1. Dismantle several vehicles.
2. Make a new vehicle out of several dismantled vehicles.
So not really.

It was fun, my only problem with it was that the Xenos side didn't enjoy the game. One Imperium player brought a list of pretty much only Vindicare Assassin's and abused the hell out of them. It made a few of the newer players not really want to participate anymore. Throw in the event being super unbalanced objective-wise and you get a goodie experience for them.

I like facing Chaos as long as they actually bring diverse lists.

As someone that read a lot of GW and BL content. Orks stories add nothing to the setting and do not forward your understanding on the setting. It's just mindless violence and bolter porn devoid of anything interesting. I avoid Ork purely novels except the Beast series which had to add in Chaos to make it interesting.

>>not more interesting than "My space daddy didn't treat me right, so now I worship space demons ans want to kill everyone, look at me I'm so edgy"

MUH DADDEH issue was invented by morons who don't read the lore. The CSM range from a lot of character archtypes. With one of one of my favorites being Kassar and Khayon who don't fight for power or for the gods but for their friends. Tyranid and Orks can never offer me a character as enjoyable and as well written as Fabius Bile in his recent novel.

Also the intrigue and horror element that the daemons being is very interesting. Also the whole mythology that they being to the setting by introducing entities like Drach'nyen. Fights with daemons are not just boring slugfests. They are as much philosophical as they are gorey.

Chaos is best villain faction. Necrons were the bestest for me in the past but they were ruined forever by Ward so the only good stories that feature them are the ones they are not talking in and those are hard to find.

I would prefer at least 1-2 heads off every Guard box be women. It would at a bit of variety. However, the question was about unit not models.

As for unit, I would like Guard to have a unit that throws out a reliable -1 (or -2) save like every other army has. If you want anything off the sort right now you're stuck spending points on heavy slots or paying extra for more bodies instead of weapons.

Quasi relevant, but I remember long ago back in an old White Dwarf (early 90s or so) there was a fluff bit about a Titan factory/force that was stationed more or less across from an Ork staging ground stuck in a protracted, years long stalemate of a war.

Over time the Titans and their Ad Mechs got more and more orky, to the point of installing giant sound systems into the Titans to out-shout the Ork Waaagh warcry with their own.

There are some interesting parts of CSM, but they simply fail to be a good main antagonist. They'd be more interesting and original if they were presented as what they are: fractured, selfish petty super powered warlords, who only care about expaning their own selfish desires, only aboe to work together for a short period of time before they fracture once more.

>>54623144

On the flip side, Celestine with two MSU squad of Seraphim and some random Crusaders and DCA for sneaky objective capturing worked like a charm.

Cheap Admech Alpha Primus like the other anon's Explorator, although I would add an aura of SOME kind. Maybe a purchasable "Targeting Nexus" that gives one unit +1BS or something.

As a different custom, Admech transport based on pic related.

About PL7, carries 12 infantry or 3 Kataphrons, three Fire Points. Moves as fast and decays like the Dunecrawler, fires two Kataphron-grade Phosphor Blasters.
Statline is relatively flimsy, just T6 W9? 4+/Dunecrawler 5++, but it has an alternate PL8 build that replaces the transport capacity and guns with a Void Shield Generator that boosts saves by 1 for Admech Vehicles within 6".

So you can run armoured phalanxes with Crawlers, Kastelans and transports all with +1Sv, making them hard as nails unless the Voidshield tank is destroyed, because you're running around with 2+ 4++ Dunecrawlers, 1+ 3++ Aegisbots and 3+ 4++ transports, but the actual void isn't that hard to disable. Meant to remove the problems with Kataphrons and such being really easy to down and provide the army with a bit more mobility. Now your doomblobs can be mobile at the cost of no Cawl rerolls.

Bad guys fighting for the power of friendship despite the temptations and hardships that the corruption of Chaos throws at them are very interesting. Fabius being the only true atheist left in mankind despite where he lives and what he does is hella intriguing.

What do Orks and Tyranids can offer that's close to that? Nothing but mindless violence. Genestealers cults MAYBE can mimic what Chaos does but the main Tyranids are awfully dull.

Here is an example, Khayon willing to die for Abaddon and his Xenos lady-friend out of devotion and genuine love. The guy forsook ultimate power and immorality for a man he respects. That's something new and fresh.

Kassar tainting his soul to save his friends , being part of the Emperor's plan, AND being possibly the only CSM on the path towards redemption is awesome.

>>actually liking the stupid shit that was Drach'nyen

I did Terran mythology being adapted into the 40K setting.

>Go read some actual literature and then maybe you'll understand why "my superpowerful unbeatable gods and their edgy servents are going to destroy the universe because reasons" is a really really shitty and overplayed concept for an antagonist.

Actually, it's a unique take on things. In most settings the good guys win. In the warhammer settings, Chaos will win. Full stoo. Because Chaos is a force really a force of evil. It's a force of change and entropy. Men perspective it as evil but what they are seeing it their own evils reflected back at them. Cool concept.

Dude. You are missing the point. They are so far behind the curve, their perception is completely warped.

It's like when you watch to much porn on the internet. In the beginning nekkid chicks are great. But after a while you need the stronger stuff.
So you end up watching Brazilian scat porn of people setting each other on fire, while riding a motorcycle, because you can't even get it up anymore to regular porn.

That's excess. Perfection implies that at one point you reach a peak, where there is nothing to improve upon. It's the antithesis of what Slaanesh stands for so it makes perfect sense and makes the Emperor's Children's downfall all the more tragic cause it was ultimately a pointless pursuit anyway.

That's my take on it.

I think his point is that he wishes this was more central to the portrayal of CSM. As it is, GW shows us a lot more of CSM as this monolithic force of chaotic-stupid. They arrive with fuckloads of troops and kill everything because they're lol-so-evil then get booted.

IMO the lore would be more interesting if every faction save nids were totally fractured. IoM is based on the Empire from fantasy, which is in turn based on the Holy Roman Empire, which was one of the most fractured nations that's ever existed.

I really wish IoM had less central authority. As it stands there's actually way too much standardization and structure in the AM or Militarum Tempestus. It would be cool if they played up how Ultramar was like Prussia, the ascendent and unruly state that thinks it's better than the others. Another bit is like Hungary, not technically part of the Imperium but more badass an devout than them anyway. Terra is Aachen, in the soft belly of the empire but perilously close to Chaos/Vikings.

Can Magi use their data processing to increase their combat capabilities, or is that just for logistics? I was thinking of having the Executor Fetial (Mechanicum liason with the outside world, so he looks like a normal human) of this Titan Legion being in an IG headquarters when it was attacked and going full Number Man on the Orks, since he can predict where all the bullets and blades are going and aim pretty damn well, thus leaving the Stormtrooper bodyguard who think he's just some random civvie Admech they had to protect a little stunned.

There was a rather good thread on "how would you do a 40k TV series" a little bit ago and one of the ideas was to slowly trickle in how fucked-up the Admech actually are, so to start with you'll have enginseers who are pretty normal, then this high-up gentleman who is deceptively good at commanding and shooting, then maybe a shot of him opening up his human face to do repairs, then you start introducing the freaky stuff like Titan Princeps tanks and Skitarii augments.

I'm sorry, I didn't realize having a different opinion was considered issues. I don't even hate CSM, I just hate the focus on the black legion and abbadon's quest to destroy the imperium because it's boring as hell. Are you really telling me that having every other major chaos character bend the knee to abby so GW can set him up as this terrifying and powerful bad guy is interesting to you?

I can't cope with the fact that my Patriarch would get absorbed back into the Hive Mind when his Genestealer Cult takes over the world and the Hive Fleet arrives. I mean I know they all get melted down into biopools for reconstituiton later, but I'm too much of a Your Dudes dude to like that if my guys win my leader gets erased anyway. I wouldn't mind it if they were like Hive Tyrants and their consciousness was retained as a separate entity to be put back into the field as necessary.

Don't play them. That's not even how Hive Tyrants work. The Swarmlord isn't a one-off dude. It's a hero-killer synapse creature. When it gets melted down, the Hive Mind might catalogue what it learned from that creature's experience, but it would only be incorporating that data into a new version of that biomorph on a new planet.

It's not his opinion that's in question. It's his perspective. I mean for fuck sake 8th ed shows that the only reason why Chaos didn't streamroll the setting when the Rift was born was because their unity fractured nearly completely.

>As it is, GW shows us a lot more of CSM as this monolithic force of chaotic-stupid.

That's one theme among many.

>IMO the lore would be more interesting if every faction save nids were totally fractured.

Lets see.

Chaos is fractured. Uniting into a setting ending force every 10K years or more. Usually this fails when they regress into infighting.
Orks are fractured for similar reasons.
Necrons are fractured into warring dynasties.
The Eldar according to the index Xenos 2 are more fractured than ever thanks to the Ynnari

Am I nuts here. Where is this fluff that has factions being all united and junk? Imperium united? It has intra and outra warring factions. We saw that the Imperium went into draining and destructive wars over the Imperial calendar. Bloody hell, half of the Imperium is now separated from it.

>EC legion trait is that they act before everyone else
>their preview was on Monday
Well played GW, well played.

>>54623685

It may take a shit on fluff a bit but there are ways around that. Make it so they somehow gained mental independance from the hive mind and their new goal is to blend in with the humans to survive while fighting off both humans and the other nids trying to absorb them. Maybe some freaky psyker shit altered their minds. It's your story.

I'm getting back into the hobby this week, gonna pick up some tools, paints, and one box of troops to get settled back into things. Which faction should I go with? I'm kinda stuck between Dark Eldar and GSC, maybe Tau but not as likely.

>>54623769
Dark Eldar are a more complete army that can stand on its own. GSC still need to borrow units from Nids and IG to really be a well rounded force.

>>54623787
I know it comes up a number of times in the Ultramarines Omnibus and Ventris' stories. Like...Pausanias? uses the whole eating brains thing to learn how Markerlights can fire missiles, and they use their sus-an membrane to ...do something on Medrengard I forget.

Read my other post.

>I don't even hate CSM, I just hate the focus on the black legion and abbadon's quest to destroy the imperium because it's boring as hell.

What focus? Abaddon's legions fractured and so did the Gods of Chaos's support. With each Chaos faction ignoring the march to Terra to do their own thing and carve out their own empires.

8th ED had Abaddon and the 13th Black Crusade swept under the rug and ignored in favour of the Deathguard and their primarch which have taken central stage in EVERZING from being on the cover of the new edition to being the main badguys in the current narrative. Abaddon did not get a single meaningful line of fluff about him since 8th ed was launched. Nobody knows where he is or what he was he doing in the past 112 years. He just vanished.

You are complaining about things that are not there.

From Lexicanum, so don't know how legit it is, but

>However Genestealers are notoriously independent from the Hive Mind and have a great will to survive. During a planetary invasion Genestealers wanting to survive are innately driven onwards and outwards from the Hive Fleet by infiltrating fleeing ships. Or, after the invasion, the Genestealers are reabsorbed into the Hive Fleet as pure bio-matter like all other life is. The infiltrating Genestealers go on to infest more worlds and then in turn lead the Hive Fleet to them. No one amongst the Imperium knows how deep and widespread the Genestealer infestation of the galaxy has become.

I'd like to think my Patriarch gets away.

Hello guys,I want to share a theory:

Vulkan was a white kid with white skin,but when he arrived to Nocturne his highly evolved skin got darker to adapt him to the planet.He probably can change his skin modifying his own cells(primarchs can do that I guess),but he does not do it because the salamanders marines have black skin and its a park of their tradition and culture.Also Nocturne people were white people but they evolved during generations getting a darker skin

In the picture we can check that Vulkan nose is a white person nose

>>54623760
>Uniting into a setting ending force every 10K years or more. Usually this fails when they regress into infighting

What timeline are you even looking at? The gods themselves aren't even so much older than that. Slaanesh is 12,000 years old dude.

We know the factions are split. We're complaining they don't use that in interesting ways. The fluff is always TEN THOUSAND FUCKMEN SEIGED THE PLANET OF FORGEASS AND KILLED SO MUCH THEY GOT MAD AND KILLED EACHOTHER UNTIL THE ASSBOYS ARRIVED AND FUCKED TOO

I don't care about this huge monolithic forces AT ALL. I want to hear about the petty kings and personal empires and tiny skirmishes going on in the EoT.

40k has interesting worldbuilding on a mythical level but it never manages to write the politics of the factions as anything but retarded and boring. I'd much prefer learning about a segmentum's local government, politics and culture, and how it interacts with a local rival, to another primarch.

Flesh shit out, GW

>>54623787
>Acid spit
There are a few examples here and there.

>Eat brains to steal memories
At least in Siege of Castellax this happens. Somebody has to eat an ork's brain to figure out how to fly one of their planes.
