NL_Assault.jpg

Does anyone ever think that the Night Lords are actually incompetent at being scary? Space Marines don't really feel fear the same way we do, so maybe they're stuck with an extremely naive view of what ordinary humans find frightening? A view that entails attaching cheesy bat wings to their helmets, or putting skulls on everything even though the Imperium is already covered in decorative skulls.

They would shout battle cries like "The call is coming from inside the house!" They'd jump around corners and scream boo! And when that's all done, they will flay the skin of their still-living victims, not because they think doing it would be frightening, but because they're Chaos Marines and that's what they do. People would naturally still fear them for all the atrocities and brutalities, but in their heads the Night Lords are convinced that it's the cheesy plastic vampire fangs in their mouths that are making those guardsman shit themselves to death out of fear.

This will probably just be a hellbrute, but I'm considering refining it into a Contemptor or Decimator if I buy a second one; thoughts?

What unit or units has been consistently the best for you in this edition?

And what unit or units has been consistently the worst for you in this edition?

>Best
Bullgryn, Tank Commander Russes, Ministorum Crusaders, Yarrick and Straken
>Worst
Normal Russes, Mortar Heavy Weapon Squads, Nork, Death Cult Assassins

Basilisks and Mortar HWS feel so good on paper, but every game they do like 0-2 wounds a turn. DCA seem great on paper, but they are so fragile. They usually instantly kill a unit on the charge, then they die to a sneeze. Crusaders do okay damage, but usually struggle to wipe a unit in one go, but they also tank a shit ton of damage in return. They manage to kill units then move on to kill another.

That's not why people play normal marines. People like normal marines because they're relatable.

In a galaxy full of primaris marines, custodes and resurrected primarchs, space marines are nothing more than immortal gene forged space warriors with bolters, chainswords and power armor. And they will hold the line.

Tactical Marine loses 1 wound, dies.

Primaris Intercessor Marine loses 1 wound, lives.

Primaris Apothecary regens D3 wounds per turn; or can bring back 1 slain model to the unit.

Would you rather bring back a 2W model or a 1W? It's the same act but you get double the value from the same act by bringing back a primaris. Similary, by regenerating D3 wounds, you can keep primaris marines in the fight longer.

I assumed they naturally get filtered out before reaching the schola, but you have to figure some slip between the cracks and go on to to become proper Sororitas before their powers manifest. Given how zealous and loyal they are, I would assume they'd get picked up by the Inquisition and used as elite troops.

Tac marines are more diverse, able to field a wider variety of options at once. It's obviously the tradeoff for the greater wounds and higher cost of the Primaris.

The average primaris is not worth it, in my experience.

That's a commissar problem, not a conscript problem. Guardsmen and conscripts have both always been overpriced for what they do, jacking up their cost would not be the way to fix them.

I agree they are a problem right now, but that problem exists only because commissars are low-points no-effort methods of making them never leave the table. Either commissars need to be more vulnerable or their buff needs to be nerfed. It's a commissar problem, not a conscript problem.
>>
>>54930250
White Scars Bolter Agressors are fucking badass. Zooming around going 8-13" each turn with 6+d6 shots each. Plus a nasty power fist charge if anything manages to get too close or is too tough for massed bolter fire.

>>54930302
Models brought back by an Apothecary only get resurrected with one wound. And you can't target the same unit with more than one apothecary in the same phase.
So actually it is way more efficient to bring back 1 wound models than ressing multi-wound models who can't be healed back to full until next turn and must have unsaved wounds allocated to them until they die again.

That's her stand power.
>>
>>54930386

let's theorycraft that and find out:

>500 conscripts
>2 shots each at max range, 4 up close under perfect circumstances, average of 3 each
>1500 shots

>33% accuracy, 500 hits
>33% wound rate, 167 wounds
>33% armor fail rate, 56 meqs per turns

At 1800 points, a MEQ army can field 120 marines, so yes, in a vacuum where all the conscripts are in range and getting an average of 3 shots conscripts overpower MEQ.

However, you need to factor in the existence of transports, which soak up lasgun fire no problem. 100 marines with 6 rhinos stands a much better chance than 120 marines on foot. You can't beat guard in the bodies game, but their bodies only carry s3 rifles. I honestly admit you have a point, but the problem is more complex than just footslogging guardsmen dishing out more damage than footslogging astartes.

I didn't realize they were actually pretty fucking cool what with them being haunted by ghosts and shit. I actually read their book from 7th, and liked it for the most part. What the fuck happened with that Soul Cage thing anyway?

I love my Night Lords, but damn it I want to do some Crimson Slaughter now. I-is that wrong?

Aye laddie,
Nids are in a fucking great place. Super balanced codex both internally and externally(for the most part). Hormagaunts are one of the best units in the game for just tying up enemies and disrupting their lines with 6" pile in and consolidation. Use them to jump around and get their tanks into combat so they cant shoot next turn. Absolutely devastasting tactic

Oh, I meant to ask

GW confirmed 10 codices by christmas right

so assuming all the flavors of Marine get theirs (Space Marines, Chaos Marines, Grey Knights, Death Guard, Thousand Sons, Blood Angels, Dark Angels, Wolf Wolves) because of course they will, that's only eight. So what do you think the other two will be? Imperial Guard and?

I kinda feel like Deathwatch won't get a Codex to call their own, and will get lumped into an Imperial Agents book again with Inquisition, Astra Telepathica, Assassinorum, Ministorum/Sisters, Custard, and Sisters of Silence. But I also doubt that book is a high priority one.

Which Xeno do you think will get top billing? Will the Eldar suicide cult I forget how to spell get their own book and a bunch of units instead of being just 3 models?

They're alright. Hormagaunts are good at getting across the map quickly, though you might find termagants with spinefists are better for melee combat if you can get them in through a trygon tunnel.

Also, swarmlord special/psychic powers are good at getting units into close combat - swarmlord+genestealers is a great combo, though I know genestealers isn't what you asked.

There are a few nice combos you can pull right now. Swarmlord is one of them. Tyrannocyte with pyrovores is actually workable - they gave it a 10 inch range, so you can reliably shoot with it after it gets out. Yeah, pyrovores are actually okay now compared to 7th.

Old one eye is pretty strong too. In errata, they changed its aura to affect the CARNIFEX keyword, rather than just carnifex units, so that it would affect the forgeworld carnifex - this has the side-effect of giving itself +1 to hit, which is insane when it gets extra attacks on hit. It's worth messing around with.

it's difficult to assault, and even if you do it can just back up and shoot you since it has fly.

>>
>>54932236
>>54932229
To elaborate more, Alpha legion's infiltrate gives you pretty good objective control from the start, and you can use a lot of command points to set up a very powerful gunline. But the more command points you're using, the more squads your army has (most likely), and the lower your chances of going first.

People don't like that it's the only (plastic) transport for primaris as that feels like a cheap cash grab

The turret looks really, really busy if you assemble it per instructions. Looks fine with some moderation with bits useage

Ruleswise it's fine. It's a land raider that trades it's 2+ for more guns and is a pain in the ass to charge

The way people usually paint after a wash is to highlight the raised parts afterwards to contrast the darker recesses. It adds depth and brings out detail:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tQof5EjyzLw&t=608s

Drybrushing also works, but it has a unique texture to it that's hit or miss depending on what you are aiming for. IMO it looks pretty good on armor, less so on cloth.
>>
>>54932361
Specifically keeping primaris from using existing marine transports is really arbitrary
>>
>>54932241
Because it's use it or footslog you idiots tier, you have to pay almost a land raider to give them a transport or get fucked since chadmarines suddenly can't ride any other marine vehicle for that matter.

Upper mid tier. Strikes, interceptors, Paladins and purgation squads are god tier

Purifiers aren't great

Librarians okay but Voldus does nearly everything better plus is just a better grand master

Bro-caps are good and their aura is solid.

Just remember that power armor units are exactly as good at shooting as terminators for half the price, it'll help you recognize what each unit is good for.

Also remember interceptors aren't jump infantry and thus can fit in rhinos and razorbacks, for hilarious results

Thanks man i appreciate the info so far, i do wanna ask, since i think every raised edge for rubrics is gold how do you make the blue pop, its all in recesses, or should i not worry about that?

>>
>>54932744

Gold can be highlighted with a brighter gold, white, or even a bright silver if that's the effect you want. You can paint the blue parts with a thin coat of lighter blue and then wash the outside edges of it where it meets the gold metal trim to add emphasis to the armor color.
>>
