got the starter set and the loota/burna combo


what kinda build should i go for?

>>54708448
the CSM codex review says 12th august
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W069dPLTXg0

>>54708467
No I mean like all the ones for the year,
Like how it was Space Marines release, then CSM, then it will be Deathguard etc. I meant like that and any specific dates if any.

>>54708471
One with an HQ model since painboyz are that no longer

With EC CSM always fighting first and Possessed now having two wounds, are they viable now?

>>54708479
>54708479

yeah, been meaning to pick up a war boss and a truk for awhile now

>>54708471
An HQ like >>54708479 said, Warbosses are versatile and good so I'd go for that. I personally prefer Lootas over Burnas for the combo-kit but that's just me. As for other things you should get, more boyz are always good (you can get some cheap from ebay) and perhaps some fast attack stuff, the 5th edition? set, Assault on Blackreach has all of this, a Warboss, boyz, and Deffkoptas if you can manage to find that. Also the newer Battle for Verdos has that and nobz in the set so if you can find those that may suit you well.

Chaosfag here.

Help me to chose a warband as I can't made up my mind:

>Night Lords
Always loved them, and the possibility to model gruesome shit is very tempting
>Word Bearers
My first conversion was to GS long hair and beard to Abby and make him a Dark Apostle. Still very fond of them.
>Red Corsairs
Well, I love space pirates. And skulls.
>Dragon Warriors
Love flame and melta weapons, badass armor scheme.

Please help!

>>54708517
Dragon Warriors, but I always like seeing the obscure warbands/chapters see someone give them some love.

My chaos bro needs help. He's getting tabled to almost tabled by our friend's Tyranids every game he's played since 8th. I'm seriously worried about his fun levels. He's been running Death Guard since way before 7th when they were just resin FW conversion pieces for chaos marines. Other dude runs mostly a regular spread of Nids with a few Carnifex, a Flyrant, two Broodlord and assorted Gaunts and Denim-Thieves.

Are there any Chaos units that are SUPER NICE against nids in general I can set him up with for his b-day? To my recollection he's got:
The DG half of DI
Two FW Plague Drones
Helldrake
Plague Hulk
About 12ish regular Marines that could fly as such OR Plague Marines
Typhus and about 20 assorted zombies we made out of leftover Catachan pieces
Two Las Preds

I know Jack shit about Chaos so help would be appreciated.

>>54708527
Also forgot the Demon Prince. It actually did some fine work against me last game.

>>54708525
That's one of the reasons I want to field them too

My fledgling Kabal is going to need some more anti armor soon, as a bunch of Reavers with Blasters won't cut it.

Whats the best choice:
Ravager with 3 Dark Lances
Scourges with 4 Dark Lances
Razorwing Jetfighter with 2 Dark Lances

Or is there another good tank buster I'm missing?

>>54708547
ravagers are always a safe bet

>>54708527
Spawn are pretty legit all-rounders

Typhus is pretty decent too if he's running a heap of plague zombies, who are also likewise pretty darn good with Typhus (and okay otherwise)

What habbend to Lion El'Jonson?

from what i can gather it seems like hes just locked himself in his room watching anime

am i wrong?

>>54708527
Helbrutes?

>>54708517
As a word bearer i want to tell you to bear the word, but for realsies, i think night lords look awesome and like a fun legion to model. never heard of the dragon warriors.

>>54708609
Or Leviathans if youre doing FW.

>>54708547
Unrelated but I don't play DE and I love Kabalite models so much, they just look so fucking awesome.

>>54708609
I thought they were hot trash? They could stand up to Stonecrusher? He'd still have the SC! one at least so maybe I can get him another box.

>>54708577
He's either a potato on life support, having a longer sleep-in that gulliman did, or dead and Luther is the one down there instead.

>>54708638
It's OP. If Slaanesh, they can shoot again, Sorcs can give Prescience, Lords can let them reroll 1s, etc. Its to strong

Help me out /tg/ - I have a Death Guard army (some marines, 5 termies+lord, hellturkey, daemon prince, a rhino, a rhino/pred, 3 oblits, 2 hellbrutes and 5 raptors/warp talons).

The thing is I have an urge to finally build a Jugger Lord like I always wanted. He's gonna be accompanied by some spawn and 10 (for now) zerkers - blood warriors conversion.

Here's the kicker: the two tanks(a rhino and a rhino/pred), two hellbrutes and 5 raptors/warp talons (unbuilt yet) are all unpainted...
Which things should I paint as Death Guard, and which as World Eaters?

>>54708691
Raptors/Warp Talons are definitely a World Eater unit both thematically and rules-wise.

This is ADB the best author in BL and best writer of 40K lore in general. Say something nice about him.

>>54708722
Yes. There is a funny and goofy CSM character that I quite liked.

>>54708728
Master of Mankind brought tears to my eyes. I don't think BL will ever publish anything that amazing again.

>>54708728
You look like Matt. I hate him the least.

>>54708691
Everything but the raptors as DG

>>54708517
If you're going to do night lords, so them right. That means lighting and shit. If you don't want to paint lighting on every model, I wouldn't recommend them.

>>54708527
Decimators with soulburners kill everything

>>54708728

>>54708728

>>54708691
If your main army is a death guard army, paint it all death guard and 'proxy' your colour scheme when you play world eaters.

Unless you think a bit of variety will look good (or you just really want to paint something else).

>>54708738
The tanks too? I was wondering what will I more likely put in the rhinos - zerkers, or green boys.
>implying I'd be even running 2 rhinos, and not a pred

>>54708763
What do you mean by "proxy color scheme"? World Eaters lending Rhinos for DG?

>>54708547
Scourges with lances a shit, you'll be taking -1 to hit on arrival and they won't survive to shoot again.
Ravagers are a always safe bet.
Razorwings/Voidravens if you want a more versatile platform, as they kill all the things and not just armour.
Blasterborn are always efficient.
Scourges with blasters likewise.

Post ending with 0 names my warlord.

Dubs name my cabal.

Strip down the shoulderpads, the double shoulder is kinda weird. Since bulking up the legs would be very hard, I suggest instead trimming back the pelvis a little to make the legs closer together so they look less spindly.

It's bearable if your okay with the fact that it rather sloppy work and something just makes no sense, for example there is a scene where one of the red corsairs fires a plasma cannon, that he had strapped on to his back at a vindicator while he's driving a bike at high speed to avoid getting hit by the tank ...

Did you already paint them? Because Primaris look great as Alpha Legion.

The codex seems like a disappointment so far, but night lords could be cool. Take them and a death guard detachment with some chaos spawn. You can get a total -6 penalty to leadership.

So I really want to play Black Legion, but I cannot edge highlight at all. Is there any easy way to get black armour that looks decent?

Wraithlordbro here again.

My magnificent Wraithlord was charged by the big bad Swarmlord himself. The Swarmlord landed exactly 0 wounds, allowing the Wraithlord to strike back and deal 6. The next turn, the Wraithlord bailed and let a Wave Serpent lance the Swarmlord to death.

This is the second time he's played a major role in the defeat of the Swarmlord. Does he deserve a name at this point?

For Reference: Plague Weapon means reroll 1s to wound.

New Rules: Champion can take fist and plasma gun separately, no longer worded to take them together. Can't take combi-weapons though.

2 Plague marines can swap to Melta Gun, Plasma Gun, Blight Launcher, Plague Belcher (Flamer with Plague Weapon) or Plague Spewer (Heavy Flamer with Plague weapon)

Any Plague Marine can get 2 attacks if they swap to a 'melee' load out. Any can swap to two Plague Knives, which is just a normal melee attack and Plague Weapon. This is probably just a cheapo option.

Any can also swap to a Bubonic Axe which is +1s, -2ap and plague weapon. Seems decent.

2 can swap to Bubonic axe AND Mace of Contagion. Mace of Contagion is +2s, -1ap, 3 damage, Plague weapon and has -1 to hit. Seems quite poor desu, I guess if you want that 3 damage reliably.

A further 2 can swap to flail or cleaver. Flail is +2s, -2ap, 2 damage, does D3 attacks per swing (so d3 per plague marine), plague weapon and the damage spills over, so great at cleaving stuff like Guardsmen. Cleaver is Sx2, -3ap, d6 damage, plague weapon and -1 to hit.

Flail and Cleaver don't count toward the ability to gain +1 attack, so they are at 1 attack. Which seems quite bad.

No special troop choices this edition, the best you can hope for is a stratagem that allows it to get obsec for a battle round.

How is this for a Plague Marine rush squad?

2 Rhinos. Stick a flamer on top or whatever you like.

In each Rhino you have 2 identical 5 man squads so you end up with: 4 Heavy Flamers (Plague Spewer), 4 Melee Weapons and 2 Champions with Fist+Plasma Gun.

First one on right. Second on left. I'm pretty happy with how they're looking so far. Going to paint the sorcerer last so i have the most experience by the time i get to it.

Constructive criticism welcome. I fucked the first ones tabard but i think the second is generally neater. It was probably dumb one of the most ornate and detailed troops as a first thing to paint

>>54709476
Do something about your lighting. Hard to make out what you did when everything's so dark. That being said, shade your metallic bits.

>>54709394
Do they have access to the powers though? Or is Ahriman and Magnus still stuck with the dark hereticus powers from the index?

>>54709476
I'm tempted to call bullshit. That looks a hell of a lot better than most first models.

>>54709476
Looking quite good.

You plan on adding any detail to the top of the head? I'm personally mixed on that, but I know a lot do.

>>54709108
Is there any reason to load a bunch of plague marines with melee weapons? they have move 4 or 5 or something pathetic

>>54709476
Look up edge highlighting.

but gratz on the brass gold look. Much better on the rubrics IMO.

>>54709476
After your wash, go back and clean up the more raised surfaces with your base colors. That will give you a nice depth and shadow and fix your tabards.

>>54709454

Let's be real here between the real life effects of steroid use and the fact that the emperor wanted marines to be unable to reproduce it'd be an utter miracle if a marine of any type can maintain even a 1 inch erection without resorting to Slaanesh's aid.

>>54709504
They could be quite good with a Rhino.

Plus they also have some handy flamer options.

>>54709498
im going to do yellow bands like in the advertised picture, but the guy at my flgs told me to come in when ive finished painting them and he will show me a way to do it, so for now ill leave it as its a bit finnicky and i dont want to mess it up.

>>54709485
not exactly a photographer, i saw a infographic here about how to make good photos easily but dont remember what the steps were. i did shade my metallic bits so maybe that didnt come across with the photo but also i didnt go overboard with shade because i wasnt too sure how much to use.

Can anyone identify the Aux Grenade Launcher on the Intercessor sprue?

>>54709459

Dunno but you can take Bloodthirsters as troops and they dropped to 7 points per model do that's pretty good.

>>54709535
If you take them you lose your legion trait.

Can someone give me a (you) ?

Thank you, feeling a bit blue.

With fist and power scourge they get 5 fist attacks and 3 scourge attacks, that's enough to kill a carbides and he can put a heavy flamer on the fist.

Spawn are good for their points, I can see them munching through any t5 or less multi wound units.

Typhus is a criminally undercosted character.

Speaking about the book series, the main protag is like super cool. You know how he fights? With daemon battle cards. He has a whole deck of daemons. In each card, is a bound daemon. By drawing card and placing it in attack mode, the daemon of the card is summoned at this command. I dunno why he isn't so popular yet.

Your opponent sets up an army painted like this. Do you play?

>>54709971
MSU Is good for them. Only concern is having enough orders for the lot of them. I figured you only had 1 prime that's why I said a 10man plasma squad.

>>54709988
Sure why not.

>>54709988
Yeah why not. 11 years old have to start somewhere.

>>54709956
They need to sell all their old Typhus models before they can make another new one like Ahriman.

>>54709998
I do have one prime but he's got the 2 order swag stick. I figure he can drop behind the Melta and plasma while the Volley Guns reinforce whatever flank the Gaunts/Boyz end up going to.

>>54709971
>Can three really do much though?
You need about 5 with a priest to start killing deff dreds or carnifexs in one charge, but they make a good screen against melee infantry.

Whisper "even in death I still surf"
Shout lol enough to startle him. Actually vocalize the letters L O L
Forget setting up and go up to everyone in the store doing the same thing

>>54709980

Ghost axes ramp their cost up considerably. Are they really worth it? I suppose against bone swords and rending claws the force shields would be really sweet. If only they could take force shields without the axes.

Yeah, it'd be funny.

>>54710140
Because customization you faggot. Did you even read the answer from NEW GW tm?

I took the front off a venerable dread and cut it to size.

Had to ruin the whole front piece, but luckily I have a few spare furioso dread fronts. With 12 box dreads I probably have enough Castaferrum pattern for my dread army, so I'll probably make the spare up as a Deathwatch dread once a conversion idea springs to mind.

>>54710309

you're welcome

>>54710245
The blades are a fair bit cheaper and give an extra attack without a penalty to hitting.

Though I suppose a warlock/spirit seer could counteract the axe penalty.

Though for ~210 points, 20 attacks hitting on 2s at strength 5 ap-2 is pretty brutal.

Start dark grey and wash to black.

My LGS ran an apocalpyse game for the start of Konor, but one of those shitty everyone goes at once and has 20 minutes to do their turn apocalpyse games. It took up the entire gaming area, so nobody could actually play 40k that night.

Second week the campaign is apparently running at 6pm, so I show up 4 hours early, start modelling at one of the hobby tables after a while of nobody to game with, then at 6 people come in in a huge rush and pair off rapidly whilst I'm trying to pack my hobby stuff away.

So 2 weeks in a row this shitty campaign blocked me out of actually getting a game.

Fabius is neither Slaanesh nor is he Emperor's Children.
He's a renegade amongst heretics he does his own thing.
If Fabius gets a special warbound of Chaos Primaris it will have very few players buying into it, and Fabius is not one to share.

It does mean shit when the model granting that auto-pass morale shit gets turned into a chaos spawn, which is another -1 to leadership.

Considering the Primaris too, what are the better options for anti tank?

Las-Preds seem good, but they've only got a couple of shots. Those new heavy Hellblasters have the same profile near enough as a Lascannon and have more shots, though lower toughness and 2 wounds less. Land Raiders? Expensive for those 4 shots.

What else?

>>54710503

For the Telemon?

Probably a leviathan with even more wounds, S18 in melee, a plasma flamer, an anti-horde missiles setup up top and I'm not really sure how the Gattling lascannon would convert over, but it'd be brutal regardless.

>>54710525
And how are you going to do that with how prevalent bubblewrapping is?

>>54710471
Any other setup would be less efficient, that's just shooting yourself in the foot. The problem is they have the same 4 attacks.

>>54710482
I dunno I see lots of armed forces guys that play guard because muh military knowledge. They have all been pretty cool guys and uber sportsman like. There is no proving your opinion wrong though that's not how those work friend-o-.

Honest querry: so, what do I need to Primaris-e older kits? Maybe its just me, but wouldnt it be sufficient just to add Primaris-legs? Upper half of the SM models seem compatible/same.

>>54710455
They could at least give them a tribune as HQ, or make the one they released not just a limited/special edition.
And I'd like to see a model for the Captain-General, as Guiliman-tier LoW/HQ unit.
It's quite ridiculous anyway that the personal guardians of the Emperor are stuck with a single, barely customisable troop option and a reskinned Land Raider and the plastic Contemptor for 40k.

I just want my small elite army of golden banana boys.

>Any other setup would be less efficient

You are really, really bad at this. Just take a Kheres and a stormbolter, you don't need to shoot the same target you're charging at anymore.

Is it pronounced WAGH or WAG?

>>54710592
It's pronounced "Please be patient I have autism"

Just fucking end my life lads. Have any of you regretted purchasing an army?

>>54710550
Psychic attacks are not shooting attacks and this do not obey the law of not attacking a character unless he's closest, Smite still kind of does but some powers just target the closest enemy unit. Gift of Chaos is not one of those powers.
Daemon Prince with wings flies within range, and makes your character into a spawn that can charge into the bubblewrap now.

I don't want to be laughed at for saying it wrong.

You'll be laughed at for saying it at all fuckwit

>Really like the idea of Noise Marines
>Really dislike the usual Slaanesh colour schemes
Are there ANY Slaanesh related legions that don't dip their armor in pink?

Why is chaos losing Konor so hard? Why do you guys not deploy more artillery? Perhaps even.... Soul Grinders?

>>54710592
The first one Anon god speed you beautiful ork player.
Also in my experience fantasy/AoS players yell this more why is that?

>>54710617
Holy fuck.

I love (You)

Count the points, faggot. All table quality, painted.

Its only 20 legions. All other shit is warbands and chapters

>>54710601
I doubt chaos is getting primarised anytime soon, the codex has no new models in it. Abaddon didnt even get a new model
