I've done a bit more since this pic, so a fair amount is painted, but I'm putting together some more burnas, lootas and tankbusters later, so those will all need to be painted up.

Working on my GSC as well, two deathwatch overkill boxes, a box of Neophytes and two Chimeras. Neophytes are almost all done (except the cult guardsmen that came with one chimera), so I only have a few aberrants and acolytes to finish up. I'll probably take a pick of them when I'm about to do a battle, since I'll need nearly all of them to field a decent force.

Honestly, I paint in spurts everytime I start playing again. A few back in 2nd ed, a big group back in 5th, and a lot of stuff getting finished up now. I might actually catch up if I stop buying shit.

Power axes, and a pair of LC on the champ. d in some chainsword chaff and a rhino, and they do the business.

alternatively you can give them special weapons, and get an extra one over havoks. if you give them flamers, give the rest of the squad chainsword, and kick some arse

Just dragging this from the other thread, talking about global campaign general

>>54671626
I just want to see the Global campaign have repercussions.

It's cool that the story has (finally) shifted in time-line, and action is once again upon us. And thank the gods for a global campaign (I remember playing in them every other summer, back when I started), but I want to see the campaign impact the world.

Last global was the defense of Cadia in the Eye of Terror global campaign. Imperium won, and Cadia was left alone. But it's stagnate when the Imperium wins, Chaos is the one who creates friction and movement in the story.

I want to see Chaos win so we can clearly see the impact that happens /because of games we played/. If Imperium wins, status quo is maintained and the "did it matter?" is so much more abundant. Unless there is some massive outcome in the possitive for the Imperium from this event when they win. But simply defending and protecting a system (No matter how important) just creates a feeling that the battles we submitted never mattered, despite that the "outcome" was aligned with the winning results.

Yeah, I guess if it's all just "this planet and STORY STUFFF" or whatever. Like all just meaningless text they write into the game because of the campaign.

I dunno. I suppose GW isn't going to be restructured or different enough that they are doing something radical like introducing a named character, or miniature. Or an item or something, even if it could only be used in non-Matched play. And with their more free-friendly mind-set, they could easily offer free rules to allow players to have random characters added to their imperial or chaos armies. Or an item or battlezone effect.

Granted there are weekly missions, with stratagems being issued, so at least there is that, which I suppose could be compiled into a little booklet for "reliving" the campaign.

But just.. I dunno. I mean Wyrd miniatures offers "alternative" sculpts for the winning faction of their yearly global campaigns. GW could do cool little character models to commemorate each year, or something.
>>
>>54671777
Yeah they learnt their lesson with EoT campaign. This one is more like the even more ancient Ichar V campaign.
>>
>>54671543
So /40kg/, I want some feedback on my homebrew Imperial Guard Regiment:

The 41st (Insert name here) Toxin Troopers

The Toxin Trooper's homeworld is located within the Ultramar system, and was originally one of the 500 worlds once under its domain. For centuries, it weathered the threats of the galaxy, the omni-present Ultramarines always there to help protect and keep order on the small rainy planet; The planet, classified as a civilized world, produced both food and manufactured goods to the rest of the sector and beyond.

This peaceful and productive world however, gained the Ire of nurgle for its peaceful, stormy glades and happy workforce offended the pestilent plague god. Thus, when the Plague Wars struck the Ultramar system, this little planet became a prime target for the marauding warbands of the Death Guard. With the Ultramarine's defences wearing thin, few units could be rallied to defend the world, leaving it's fates in the hands of its people. For years, the weak PDF suffered at the hands of Nurgle; Their world quickly transformed into a horrid matt of sickly vegetation and poisonous air, the bedraggled population fighting to the last, for they knew there was no surrender. It was by some miracle of the Emperor that they held out till the return of Lord Guilliman, and the bolstering of a relief fleet of veteran Imperial guardsmen.

With the tides turning, the PDF, their moral returned by a speech directly from Guilliman, began a heavy assault focused on purging the Death Guard forces once and for all. And with the need of their might needed else where, and the world mostly ruined, the heretic Astartes were content to let them have their polluted planet, before grumbling away in a sloppy retreat.

I keep trying to fill the void in my life with overpriced plastic models but it isn't working. I never have any time or energy to play with my toys. I'm a horrible painter it seems no matter how much I practice. I had nerve development issues as a child but that's no excuse. It feels so awful that my 15 year old collection of manlet marines are just about invalidated. It may be years I guess before they are fully phased out, but this hit me harder than I ever expected. I can't even sell my old collection any more, because nobody will want to buy 200+ old micromarine models. I didn't want to be upset about this and I actually like some of the new models, except for lazy design in a few places, but it hurts to know my old models are now nothing. Worse than nothing, since they are still taking up space. I want to be able to play. I want to be less stressed from work. I want to have friends. I want to not be so ugly it hurts to look in the mirror.

>>54671839

The last time GW had us fighting over a named planet, namely Cadia, they retconned the whole result so it turned out the way GW wanted. GW simply isn't going to turn the direction of the fluff over to us, fun as that might be.

Still, the formative "Toxin Troopers" Learned well as they enacted their revenge upon the slower Nurglites they could catch. Years of dealing with the horrid plagues of Nurgle had hardened the survivors from his viral infections, and taught them ways to counter the Death Guard's tactics and unnatural durability. They became masters of mechanized warfare, striking fast and furiously, before retreating from the slower Plague Warriors. They also began to employ higher amounts of both blessed Flamers and Chemical weaponry designed to kill off the disgusting life of nurgle.

To cement their expertise, they have even donned a partial semblance to their enemy's color; Their cloaks the peelish green, they were originally used to hide themselves in the swirling green fogs left in the wake of their foes. Now, they wear it as a badge of honor, showing their homeworlds strength, at the cost of some minor friendly fire.

A mixed regiment, the Tox Trooper's are formed mostly of veterans of their own war, who lost loved ones to the horrible diseases. They now strike out upon the stars, seeking to enact revenge on their tormentors, and perhaps find a new homeworld, untouched by the blight of the accursed grandfather.

Now all I need is a name for their planet!

Pic related is the mini's I am going to use for my troopers. Their robes are going to be painted death guard green, their armor Waagh Green, and their lenses Red, their lasguns gunmetal grey.

I originally thought it was to release new GK Primaris for you guys since you are the only Space Marine faction with no access to the new Primaris stuff, but now that we know there are no new models coming with the book it looks like it really is just to get you out of the way to be ignored for another 4 years.

Konor has been listed as being in Ultramar since at LEAST as far back as 3rd ed.

Yeah, the amount of mucus makes me think Nurgle. The jaw makes me think Orks.

>>54672271
They would have been teased or announced already, either on the site or the White Dwarf. We have teasers of Death Guard stuff that is still a month out. Also they're releasing the GK and CSM codexes at the same time, which is pretty much a sure sign it's not coming with any new models. The pattern so far seems to be codexes with models get standalone releases, codexes with no models get dual-releases.

I wonder if that's the rumoured nurgle big monster, the one in the bottom left of that artwork with morty.
>>
>>54672416
No, nothing official. Just deduction based on what GW has said + what is known to come out. Perhaps the most telling thing is that GHB is due out this month. Once the GK/CSm codex drops on the 12, we have 2 weekends for the GH to drop. It is possible we see a 1 week release for both GK and CSM on the week of the 19th assuming GHB drops on the 26th. Now if the GHB goes on preorder on the 12th and drops on the 19th, then any hope of a model release accompanying these books dies

What kind of dumbass thinks they'd kill off their main source of income? Normal and Primaris play vastly different and each have weaknesses, by all means they are independent of each other.

Depends on how far on the metallic/black scale you want to go. If you just want glossy black, black with sharp highlights is probably the way to go. Otherwise, a basecoat of leadbelcher and then several very thin layers of black would probably get you there.

The Emperor's private guard who are the hand made master crafted equivalent to the mass produced marines are minor?

What's the reasoning behind making flier lists illegal? If fliers were too strong, need them. No need to make them illegal.

If certain heavy support were a problem like say Leman Russ tanks, would it make more sense to nerf Leman Russes or to effectively invalidate the entire heavy support slot?

A lot of people still scoff at fliers but their models are great and they have good fluff. They are a universal unit type available to all armies and the recent FAQ baffles me, it's like GW regret 6th edition and I don't know why.

Imperium will always win for several reasons

As a whole, they're the most popular faction. Mostly because GW can't stop sucking Smurf dick, but also because it's an amalgamation of multiple factions

GW won't let Imperium lose.

>>54671571
Overall it's a lot cleaner , faster and simpler and the balance is overall a lot better as generally everything is good now and there's a lot less RANG shitting things up.

Things I do miss however

>Cover and terrain mattering.
Most units simply can't get cover and terrain doesn't slow units down at all.

> Positioning mattering.
Vehicles don't have faces anymore, you choose what models you remove from a unit instead of having to position them better.
Most jarring models line of sight doesn't really matter. I can position my landraider so it's front track is poking out and shoot your hive tyrant of which I can only see your wings with all my lascannons. I can then fire my heavy bolters directly behind me at another unit. Or I can position my basilisks so they're all back to back in a corner of the board and fire at whatever I want. Or I can make a good old parking lot of vehicles, chimeras, russes etc, all of which can fire through eachother and 360 degrees around eachother.

It's ripe open for abuse basically and needs some serious thought.

>Bubbles

The game encourages you to clump your units together to get buffs from characters that coupled with closer deployments means games end up with everything just smashing together in a big angry mosh pit in the centre of the board until whoever rolled dice better wins. This goes against the general aesthetic of the game and limits interesting tactics

>First turn problem.

Basically if you get the first turn 90% chance you win. Obviously bit of an issue.

Otherwise it's fine. Command points are quite nice too.

>>
>>54672782
Cover and terrain in general is kind of fucky. Thanks to the generic ruins rules you can charge through solid walls and having a unit half poking around a wall doesn't count as cover unless the terrain has a base and the models are wholly within it which makes it a bitch for vehicles to get a cover bonus.

>>54672821
It depends on the terrain piece really. Tanks can freely move through tank traps, it only halves their advance distance, and according to the rules for ruins you can freely charge through them.

I never said tanks could move through ruins? I said the could move through tank traps, which they can.
"There are two kinds of obstacles:
tank traps, which are obstacles to
VEHICLES and MONSTERS, and
tanglewire, which is an obstacle
to everything else. Units are
slowed when they attempt to move
over obstacles. If, when a unit
Advances or charges, one or more
of its models have to move over
an obstacle, you must halve the
unit’s Advance or charge distance,
as appropriate (rounding up).
TITANIC models are not slowed
by obstacles."
>>
>>54672891
This. The Grand Heterosexual Alliance will not stand those vile insults.
>>
>>54672807

No, if my chimera is directly behind another chimera it in the old rules would block it from firing. Now since all I have to do is draw line of sight from anywhere on my model to anywhere on my opponents model to fire all my weapons and then I can draw line of sight from the top of the turret or one of the tank treads poking out the corner and fire all of my weapons.

The Los block penalty would only apply if say my space marine was behind my landraider and couldn't see at all.
>>
>>54672921

Spikers because they already have all sorts of beasts and weird aliens, and their mix of units can easily represent savage warriors with dinosaurs instead of gladiators and mad science.

Well no, my hull mounted weapon by any logic and how the old rules work can't fire over a vehicle the same size as it. Nor magically fire through my tank treads but in 8e it can.

>>54672948
Remember to give all your vehicles retractable antennas to raise on your turn and lower on enemy turn.

This actually raises an interesting point, we know from the Dark Imperium book that Cawl has access to all 20 of the original geenseeds, and likely has been given access to the various chimeric geenseeds used in various foundings.
Do you think this means he has been given access to the Grey Knight geenseed also?

Does Papa Smurf have enough sway to actually pull that one off?
>>
>>54672956
Literally nothing in the rules to stop this. There used to be a clause that meant you couldn't draw LOS on extraneous parts of the model that were obviously for decoration but now players with cool models are either punished , or rewarded if they decide to abuse it.

Sure retractable antennas are silly. But if I model my Daemon prince with extra large wings why is the game punishing me for it? Likewise if I choose to carefully position my tank so it actually can see o fire with all its weapons at its target why does the game not care and reward the player who doesn't care about skillful positioning and is just firing from his tank treads?

>>
>>54672873
Not sure if this is correct but I wanted to fuck around with it myself

A squad of 10 berzerkers contains 1 champion (3 attacks) and 9 zerkers (2 attacks)

The zerkers can replace their chainsword (which gives +1 attack) OR pistol with a chainaxe. This means that optimally a zerker will want to make an attack with a chainsword (+1 from the sword's ability), and one with the stronger chainaxe, making each zerker attack 3 times. If we take a chainaxe on the champ, that's 4 attacks on him, so we get 31 attacks total in one fight phase.
Now here's the fun part: the zerkers have a neat ability called Blood for the Blood God, which makes it so they can fight twice in the fight phase. That gives us 31 more attacks.
If we use the stratagem that lets them fight another time, that's 31 more attacks.

Sums up to 93 attacks - I dunno if I missed something, or you quoted it wrong - a unit of 15 can get 130 attacks I think
>>
>>54673042
30. 10 models fighting 3 times.

>>54673084

>It's the players fault for following them


We're not talking about abusing weird rules loopholes. We're talking about following the line of sight rules RAW and as intended by the designers of the game. The designers intended for drawing line of sight to be even more abstracted and for vehicles not to have arcs anymore and for Los to be 360 degrees for everything. They want you to be able to fire from your tank treads.

This however means tactical positioning is meaningless which is a sad shame considering it's one of the main tactical elements a miniature wargame can offer over say a video game and it's lost now.

This is a red herring. I'm not talking about antennas anymore. I'm saying my land raider doesn't care about firing arcs anymore , nor if the actual weapons on the model can shoot their intended target. If I postion my unit so it's weapons can actually draw LOS and my opponent does not bother we both get the same in-game effect. So why bother ?

Likewise the targets I'm shooting only need to have part of their wing poking out of terrain and I can fire at them and they get no cover bonus at all from that positioning by RAW. So if I position my unit behind cover and my opponent does not we get the same in-game effect so why bother?

Couple that with the rear of a dreadnought being identical to its front and being able to remove whatever units you wish from a squad. Meaning that if I flank your unit to try to take out the plasma gunner hiding at the back it's irrelevant you get a game where tactical positioning does not matter.

Yet this is meant to be a wargame where in theory one way to outplay your opponent is to out position them but the rules don't care if you do. Hence the game has been severely dumbed down by this rules change.

>Tanks pivoting is represented in the movement phase, however now when it comes to shooting you don't have to think about how you move a unit to best maximise it's firing potential. Skill does not matter now. This is a detrimental thing in a wargame.
>Ironically actual glancing shot rules have been removed as have cover bonuses for the most part to further represent shots glancing off of cover.
>You can make whatever fluff justifications you want for had rules it doesn't change the fact that cumulatively positioning is relatively meaningless in 40k now which removes a huge and key tactical element that belongs in every wargame.

I still don't understand this argument, just because people want more in-depth rules doesn't mean they don't want to have fun and people liking the game for fluff doesn't have any bearing on the rules.

>>54673566
I'm glad you agree with my point that 40k 8th edition is dumbed down, overly simplified and doesn't reward skill.

I personally am quite proud to play wargames to tactically outthink my opponent and through skill achieve victory. That's the entire point wargames after all.

Granted if you want a game that caters towards people with brain damage then you have it. Enjoy giving games workshop even more $$$ for the privilege of playing a game designed on the back of a coaster.

Let me know how dumb of an idea this is

9 Reavers, 3 Blasters and 3 Cluster Caltrops and Painbringer

16 inch move and 8 inch advance along with 18 in range on the Blasters, would simply flying over the enemy and pew pewing any vehicles they have or badly positioned characters have any counters? If they get charged, just fall back, deal some mortal wounds and keep shooting targets of opportunity thanks to the FLY keyword.

Its expensive at 330 points, but with 2W T5 and a +4Sv it seems like it'd be really hard to stop without applying a lot of fire power; they've got a decent amount if S4 -1Ap attacks in melee too.

I'm sure there is some obvious unit that is going to walk all over them, what is it?

The basic rules were made with fun in mind but if you dont care for them, homebrew some more advanced rules to your liking and play with like-minded people but do not expect people who are happy that the rulebloat is dead to be happy when you demand those rules that plagued the game to return.

You wouldn't be playing 40k if tactical depth and "skill" were your reasons, even with 7th rulebloat and necessary reading rivaling a small library it was still at its core a fundamentally easily exploited system and waacfags like you are just disappointed you cant spam riptide wings with your eldar without some kind of resistance.

So my Marine gaming buddy has started the vehicle arms race among our gaming group by putting together a gatling Redemptor. Since I have nothing but infantry atm, I want to grab a Vehicle for my CSM to act as its nemesis.

Trying to decide between a Helbrute and a Hades Forgefiend at the moment. I want to dent the Redemptor but also do double shift on the infantry in his gunline.
>Forgefiend has a good bucket of S8 dakka and will 1shot Primaris afterwards
>Lascannon Helbrute with missiles will smoke it off the map but isn't much use afterwards.

Which would you pick, /tg/? Games are 1000pt to 1500pt at the moment.

Leviathan with stormcannon and gravflux. It is nearly the same height and will put in work all while matching your aesthetic with little effort

>>54673826
Heat Lances are nice if you know youre facing an army with plenty of characters and you think you can weave in to get them. Hitting on 3+, usually wounding 3+ then d6 rerollable wounds is nice
>>
>>54673890
Huh so good against characters neat. I'd used them a couple times and didint have to much trouble but everyone said to stay away from them.
>>
>>54673848
The Redemptor is so hilariously OP that nothing in the chaos arsenal stands a chance 1 on 1 really.

Deep striking combi melta wielding terminators might do it. Or charging it with a helldrake at least to tie it up and get some hits in as it sucks in cc.
>>
I'm tempted to sell my GK army I've had since I started playing in 4th Ed (so all 3rd Ed metal models). However, I'm not sure if I want to part with them.

I've got:
18 GKs in PA
9 GK terminators (2 leaders)
2 Dreadnoughts with THICC paintjobs
1 Landraider Crusader with THICC paintjob

Do I ditch them or keep them around to supplement my guard?

I haven't seen the Redemptor's stats I'll admit.

But My Helbrute with 11 S8 attacks with dobble Scourges are doing just fine at wrecking shit at a fair price.

Chaos' real problem from my experience is we have nothing with snipe. Granted I play against conscript spamming meta with vendettas that wreck absolutely anything i have. But the real problem is I have no way of getting through those 150 dudes when I can't even pray for good leadership results.

I'm currently trying to find room for a group of Renegade maruders since atleast those can take up to 3 snipers but that's about it.

So what I'd do is set it in the 41st (e.g. before 13th black crusade and primarus) and make it about a company of guardsmen being hilariously murdered by a CSM unit.

I'm going 5W 1D with my CW eldar so far, although my group isn't hyper competitive.

I play Saim Hann tho, so I suppose I'm crutching a bit on Windriders and Shining Spears.

Autarch Skyrunner
-Lance, FG

Farseer Skyrunner

6 Windriders
- 6 TL Catapults

6 Windriders
- 6 Cannons

4 Shining Spears
- Exarch with Star Lance

5 Fire Dragons
Wave Serpent
TL Bright Lances, Cannon, CTM

10 Guardian Distractions
Wave Serpent
TL EML, Cannon, CTM

War Walker
2 EML

Horde armies are the new hotness, and it's great against them, while strength 9 is only marginally better than str 8, since you'll be wounding most things on a 2 or 3 with both, apart from toughness 8 vehicles, which aren't super common.

>Try as they might, the Chaos invaders could not break the defenders’ spirits, nor scour them from their fortifications. Their rage and frustration was only exacerbated by a series of lightning attacks by the Aeldari of the craftworlds, who emerged from the hidden labyrinth of the webway to slice into the rear of the Chaos formations. There was no formal alliance between the Imperium and these deadly raiders, but the Aeldari ever follow their own mysterious whims. Fusillades of shuriken fire and pinpoint lances of searing energy tore through the unsuspecting ranks of the invaders, and even as they regrouped and reformed, the xenos disappeared from whence they came, leaving nothing but the smoking bodies of their victims behind.
Was this interchangeable? Would it have been dick ass dark eldar if chaos had won? What other Xenos do you think will pop up on the campaign trail?

It kind of difficult to justify as you loose that near-guaranteed wounding ability in exchange for an alternate fire mode best described as "very expensive mortar".

If you want a case where it's better, I could see it's best use against a mixed imperial guard army that doesn't use Leman Russes. Which isn't hard to find because the Russes damage output is so low for its cost that many players are learning to ignore it.

Not him. Motherfuckers how long how we been doing this dance? open the "Path to Glory" mini-game in the AoS and 40K version. The goal of the game is to get your Chaos champion to become a daemon prince. There is only four paths to daemonhood for the four Chaos Gods. Guess what? There is no pathway to becoming an Undivided Prince.

But a better evidence is the new 8th ed lore (picture related). This outright says that Be'lakor is alone within the brotherhood of daemon princes not to have a single master. This means he is the ONLY UNDIVIDED PRINCE OUT THERE. This has ended. Accept your L.

What's there to question? There are no other non-aligned princes, they're aligned if they're not Be'lakor.

Except that explains nothing, because they STILL EXIST AND HAVEN'T BEEN EXPLAINED.

This is akin to saying that Horus was the only one who received all the gods blessing while Abaddon still exists. It doesn't add up, because you can 'retcon' all you want but until you actually explain the others, you're still in a bind.

So actually, you have to deal with the fact that until it's explained, Lorgar and Pert are still unaligned daemon princes.

Being The Spirit of Chaos Undivided is an intrinsic part of Be'lakor's lore ever since he was originally introduced. The others being Undivided weakens his character and impact on the setting. Taking from him what makes him unique. Stop trying to ruin his character. Lorgar and Pertweaboo won't get ruined by being singular. Being Undivided isn't an essential part of their character.

>>54674371
Except for Lorgar and Perterabo (and others, incidentally, that existed but are less important players,) who are major characters who have existed long before Be'lakor came on the scene and need to be explained.

Making either of them aligned destroys much of their character. Perterabo maybe can get away with some of it but not really, but Lorgar specifically cannot. There is no way to make him aligned without destroying the entire point of his character and legion and it being focused on the entire pantheon.

Not DP, but wasn't there daemons that are not aligned with any of the gods living on the warp waste or something? What are they?
>>
>>54674385
Nope.

Notice that there isn't a single piece of lore ever since Be'lakor migrated to 40K that mentions Undivided daemons. No mention at all that Lorgar and Pertweaboo are Undivided. Heck, even when the White Dwarf was asked about Lorgar's daemonic allegiance, he didn't give a straight answer.

And Be'lakor's text explains that the Chaos Gods only made him as the Chaos Undived Prince refusing to make anymore ever again. It's over.

>This is akin to saying that Horus was the only one who received all the gods blessing while Abaddon still exists.

And if there is fluff like that, then Abaddon status is revoked. It's simple as that. Accept it like an adult and move on. You ain't gonna ruin Be'lakor with your wishes.
>>
>>54674388
>Being The Spirit of Chaos Undivided is an intrinsic part of Be'lakor's lore ever since he was originally introduced.

Yes, long after other characters already existed.

>The others being Undivided weakens his character and impact on the setting.

Good, he's dumb and never should have been in the setting. He HAS no impact on the setting, he was just introduced and has no real major part at all.

>Taking from him what makes him unique.

If that's all he's got than it stands out exactly why he's so bad. Him being the first apparently isn't enough.

>Stop trying to ruin his character.

Can't ruin what is already terrible.

>Lorgar and Pertweaboo won't get ruined by being singular. Being Undivided isn't an essential part of their character.

Yes it fucking is. Perterabo somewhat but Lorgar ENTIRELY. The ENTIRE POINT of Lorgar is his devotion to the entire pantheon, it's actually a key aspect of his writings! It's literally a punishable offense in the Word Bearers to follow one god too strongly and neglect the others. Making him singularly aligned fucking destroys that and makes it nonsensical.

Be'lakor was the first daemon prince that the gods created together, they decided to create no more like him. What further explanation do you need?

How so?

>>54674405
>Except for Lorgar and Perterabo (and others, incidentally, that existed but are less important players,) who are major characters who have existed long before Be'lakor came on the scene and need to be explained.

What needs to be explained? They're aligned, end of. What could be revealed is their alignment, but it's largely not necessary.

>Lorgar specifically cannot.

Yes he can, he just needs to take immortality from a god that offers it.
>>
>>54674414
All lore says they are daemon princes. Be'lakor is the uniquest in their kind since he the only one who has four masters instead of one.
>>
>>54674431
>Heck, even when the White Dwarf was asked about Lorgar's daemonic allegiance, he didn't give a straight answer.

Which is flatly not a statement that he's aligned, and only raises more questions.

You're so obsessed with defending your daemon waifu that you won't even admit how nonsensical it is. No, actually, it wouldn't revoke Abaddon's status unless they actually address the fact that Abaddon is still around using those fucking powers.

>>
Belakor was a problem because they didn't sink their claws into him and ended up with no control.

Lorgar would be pretty easy to bind into oaths of perfect devotion to the pantheon. Yeah, he's not a tool of an individual God, but like hell is he a free agent.
>>
>>54674456

Because they're STILL IN THE LORE AND UNEXPLAINED.

It leaves massive holes, ones that are fundamentally unexplained. Just saying 'Be'lakor is the only one' doesn't answer 'but it's intrinsict to Pert and Lorgar that they are also unaligned, and nothings says they aren't. Saying Be'lakor is the only one doesn't explain Pert and Lorgar at all.'

>What needs to be explained? They're aligned, end of. What could be revealed is their alignment, but it's largely not necessary.

This is why you're dumb, because you think the primarchs of two legions suddenly having alignment when it makes no sense and ruins much of their character is unimportant but your poorly written waifu somehow is important and can't be 'ruined' by explaining how his bullshit created plot holes.

>Yes he can, he just needs to take immortality from a god that offers it.

That you don't understand how this destroys his character far more than making Be'lakor not the only one is the just more evidence on how much an idiot you are.

Fist+scourge are better than the maulerfiend this edition and since the khorgorath fills that role you are good to go. However if you do feel the need to have some big-thing variety, I don't know how you feel about these.
When it comes to turning the AOS to 40k make sure you do change the weapons to chainswords+chainaxes (which is what I did to avoid any salt). I didn't bother putting pistols on the revers but did change them to 25mm bases. I also equipped all the heroes with power weapons and use the skullreapers as chosen, possessed and/or spawn.

Doesn't matter. They infringe of his themelogy. Be'lakor purpose to the essence of Chaos Undivided. The vocal point of Chaos and the only one with authority to name the ultimate champion of the gods.

The others are just knuckleheads who ascended to daemonhood and never did anything with it. It changed nothing when they retconned their Undivided status.

>Good, he's dumb and never should have been in the setting. He HAS no impact on the setting

Except he fulfils an essential as

1)Herald of the End Times
2) Crowner of the Everchosen/Chaos Ascendant
3)Abaddon's rival
4) A devil behind the curtain

>If that's all he's got than it stands out exactly why he's so bad. Him being the first apparently isn't enough.

Not all but the most important part. He is the Firstborn of the gods.

>Can't ruin what is already terrible.

Subjective.

>Lorgar

And it's established that Lorgar is weak willed and foolish. He would fall into a trick of being a singular daemon. Be'lakor on the other hand is smarter and has infernal will power that allowed him to become be the UNDIVIDED.

>This is why you're dumb, because you think the primarchs of two legions suddenly having alignment when it makes no sense and ruins much of their character is unimportant but your poorly written waifu somehow is important and can't be 'ruined' by explaining how his bullshit created plot holes.

Stop projecting onto me. I'm merely telling you the fluff that Be'lakor is the only undivided prince.

>That you don't understand how this destroys his character

You fucking idiot, that theme was already done by both of them, so in reality, he infringed on both of them. This is particularly why he's such a stupid as fuck character in 40k.

Also, none of the things you listed are 'essential.' The Everchosen isn't even a thing in 40k, and doesn't NEED to be a thing, and neither does the Herald of the End Times, and Abbadon doesn't need a random Fantasy transplant as a rival, and there already are plenty of 'devil's behind the curtain.'

That you acknowledge the whole first thing but are so autistic about him being the ONLY ONE is stupid.

And that you also seem to want to wank him off that he's so much better than Lorgar and Pert just really shows how much you're just a waifufag for a terrible character. You're entirely ok destroying other characters in nonsensical ways so long as you can maintain your stupid wankfest.

The Chaos Ascendant is 40K's version of the Everchosen. Guess who guided Abaddon to being the CA like how he guided Archaon to being the Everchosen. It's BE'LAKOR!

>nd neither does the Herald of the End Times,

Yes, it does. It's an epic moment when Be'lakor proclaims the end of all things and ushers Armageddon like the biblical angels he is inspired from.

>Abbadon doesn't need a random Fantasy transplant as a rival

Yes, he does. It adds a much needed inter-factional conflict to Abaddon's storyline.

None that can do it better than Be'lakor.

>And that you also seem to want to wank him off that he's so much better than Lorgar and Pert just really shows how much you're just a waifufag for a terrible character.

I am not wanking him. I know for fact that Be'lakor almost always fails at everything he sets a up to do usually at the final step. It's part of the characters charm how hubris and pride are his greatest flaws. You know, like Lucifer which he is an expy of!

Well it would work because once Tyranids ate the whole galaxy they would die from starvation but still leave biomass for new life to grow.

Abaddon is a shitter. If I worked in GW I'd kill him off and let the chaos forces loose without a leader, that would make for a more interesting setting.

I'd also make an imperial civil war, the Emperor (which has no say) and the radicals vs Guilliman and the new empire

This is not a necessary thing in 40k. It was just transplanted from fantasy when they introduced Be'lakor. That isn't essential.

>Yes, it does. It's an epic moment when Be'lakor proclaims the end of all things and ushers Armageddon like the biblical angels he is inspired from.

This is also not necessary for 40k and again misses the point. It's just another transplant to justify Be'lakor but that does not make it essential.

>Yes, he does. It adds a much needed inter-factional conflict to Abaddon's storyline.

Except that already existed in the politics and conflict between legions. Plus, the primarchs would fit this role way better that Be'lakor, being established and having reason to actually claim this. Hell, Perterabo and Lorgar actually fit it WAY better than transplating Be'lakor in.

This is not something that Be'lakor does alone, it's not something only he can do. Indeed, he's not even the best suited for it.

>None that can do it better than Be'lakor.

Why? That doesn't make sense. It's been a thing for chaos long before Be'lakor ever showed up. Hell, Alpharius does this better.

>I am not wanking him. I know for fact that Be'lakor almost always fails at everything he sets a up to do usually at the final step. It's part of the characters charm how hubris and pride are his greatest flaws. You know, like Lucifer which he is an expy of!

>Not really having the siege god on your hand is kinda helpful if you're the siege legion

Except Nurgle is not 'the siege god,' and making more than one legion aligned ruins the balance, and also makes no sense for the characters.

As written, I'm inclined to say both; its still "the subsequent fight phase", they're just getting another go at it.

Actually, it makes Abaddon less mary suish. No mortal being could have risen to the highest Abaddon reached without help from an insider who mastered the Great Game of Chaos.

Horus received daemonic assistance from a two named rogue daemons. Abaddon getting help from one rogue daemon is fine.

Yes, but if you're using their fist, you're not using their plethora of ranged weapons, which means you're not using a bunch of shit you spent a lot of points on. This is the eternal issue with units that are versitile, because if they're good at everything, they're broken, if they're average at everything, you're better off using dedicated platforms, and if they're good at one thing but better at another you're better off just using them for the one thing and having the other as a backup just in case.

GW's bits situation is pretty consistently garbage.

It's impossible to build a good Crisis Suit team with one box. Hell, if you want to run Cyclic Ion Blasters, the only proper way to get them is via the Commander box. Which comes with ONE.

I mean, anyone sane kitbashes them or buys third party bits, but still.

This is so ahistorical I don't even know where to begin.

Sieges are both more complicated than that and have been actually complicated since literally the Bronze Age. The Assyrians called, fucker.

Incidentally, the terror tactics and supposedly piles of skulls and bodies make Ashur a good fit for a Khorne daemon.

Nothing gets good damage against infantry and vehicles without having a melee component, and the redemptor is fairly efficient at hitting vehicles using just his fist. Compare him to something decent at melee only like a blood slaughterer, he gives up 1.3 average damage against t7 sv3 for all his shooting. He's paying under cost for his guns.

You compare him to dedicated lascannon platforms hes bad, but most things are. Anti-vehicles options are in general to good across the board in most armies.

Space Marines are their main source of income and Primaris ARE Space Marines.

Manlet marine support is going to be stopped and Primaris are going to get a steady stream of the better , shinier, bigger and more powerful toys. Grey Knights and other specific marine factions will also be brought in line. This will take a bit of time but is inevitable and simply the same process of selling the same models to you again and again and again. GW have been doing this shit for years.

The sheer delusion of SM players to think their tiny old models aren't going to become obsolete is hilarious. Primaris marines are a new model line that is going to replace an old model line simple as.

Manlet marines will be relegated to 30k( which nobody plays anymore now that 8th is out , so will only be vaguely supported by forgeworld, no more cool 30k box sets for you ) and that's it.

By your same argument GW should still be selling all the models in this picture when infact they are selling none of these models anymore though you can if you have them still use them in games. (Arguably with 40mm bases for the terminators )

nah they're not actually world eaters, they're fallen using the world eater rules. Head canon is that they a breacher team that lost their marbles tumbling through the warp without a gellar field. The chaplain/dark apostle there is trying to keep the crazier one in line.

Bolter havocs are ablative wounds mostly and hopefully will discourage smaller units from trying to deep strike them
