>>55045821
true enough. its a long shot but im hoping they release a warlock titan so there is an eldar counterpart to the warlord titan.

>>55045782
how do i into thousand sons? do i more space marines or more demon or equal amount? should tzangors be treated like cultists?

Were do chapters get their vehicles from? Do they just tell the nearest forge world to hand stuff over, or is there an actual process?

Thinking about building a mech IG army and I need some help here, how do I make this 1572pts list 2000 ?
I'm thinking maybe one more squad and some Hellounds, but I feel that I'm a bit short on both big game hunting and horde management.

Ok lads red pill me on Chinese resin, will I actually get cancer or is that a meme? the main threat is small particles right so it doesn't matter what resin you use as long as you use a mask and are careful?

>if you ran a local tourney would you ban forge world or allow it?
>what one unit in the game would you like to see buffed?

>>55045879
You probably already have cancer due to using 4chan at all. Didn't you ever read the fine print at the bottom? If you're posting and not wearing a mask now, it's too late.

>>55045879
Nah, with Chinese resin they might make it with dangerous shit. You'll know because it will reek of petrol.

>>55045878

You are troops light, and your troops are just standing around with their dicks out while your tanks make up the bulk of your army. They look like an afterthought.

Pay 225 to buy 3 chimeras and put your infantry in them at the very least. Pay another 120 for a 4th squad and chimera, another 30 for a second company commander so you have enough orders to go around for them, put hunter killer missiles on everything.

>>55045908
>>what army do you play
Deathguard, eldar, and tyranids

>>choppy, shooty, or a mix?
mainly choppy but you got to bring shooty a little

>>do you own any forge world?
Yea, CSM line is pants on head retarded without legion upgrade kits

>>if you ran a local tourney would you ban forge world or allow it?
I allow it, its all one company

>>what one unit in the game would you like to see buffed?
swooping hawks

>>you have to kiss one member (male or female) of a xeno/imperial/chaos faction, what do you choose?
Macha

How do I do orks without hundreds of boyz or dredmob?

>>55045908
>>what army do you play
Marines (main army), crons, daemons, 1k sons, orks, gaurd
>>choppy, shooty, or a mix?

>>if you ran a local tourney would you ban forge world or allow it?
Yes.

Death Guard, am new so go for one of the starter set guys.
>choppy, shooty, or a mix?
Mixed
>do you own any forge world?
Nope, don't plan to. That shit is expensive and gives you cancer.
>if you ran a local tourney would you ban forge world or allow it?
I'd probably allow it, FW is not for me but I guess other people can fuck around with it why not.
>what one unit in the game would you like to see buffed?
Soul Grinders. They are terrible at shooting and unreliable at melee. Give them power of the machine spirit at least.
>you have to kiss one member (male or female) of a xeno/imperial/chaos faction, what do you choose?
I dunno, Eldar or something?

>>55045908
>what army do you play
GK main, with BA, Orks, DE/Ynnari, Necrons and Imperial Fists in various stages of development.

>choppy, shooty, or a mix?
Primarily choppy. Learning how to do shooty though.

>do you own any forge world?
No and no plans to in the forseeable future.

>if you ran a local tourney would you ban forge world or allow it?
If you have easy access to the rules and the FW model for it, sure.

>what one unit in the game would you like to see buffed?
Paladins. They need to be cheaper. Okay, I kid. In all seriousness? Wyches probably. They are still very very meh.

>you have to kiss one member (male or female) of a xeno/imperial/chaos faction, what do you choose?

Scarab Terminators are quite good, everyone gets a 4 shot s4 -2 gun. Soulreaper is like a grav cannon for 15 points, Hellfyre is only 22 instead of 50 like a cyclone. You get one of each per 5 guys. No penalty to fire with moving. All is Dust is better for them since it keeps them at 2+ vs heavy bolters and assault cannons. They're only 40 points each with basic loudout. I'd bring 10.

Some chapter forges are capable of producing some vehicles. Otherwise they order them from forge worlds through their Techmarines. Remember that Techmarines have joint allegiance to their chapter and the Adeptus Mechanicus.

If I take them into chimeras, shouldn't I just ditch the Autocannon teams tho ? I just don't really see the point in putting my dudes into transports other than making them more durable. They can't shoot from Chimeras and the Commander can't issue order either. For the price of 3 chimeras, wouldn't it just better to take 4 more squads ?

Also, thoughts on giving more than the bare minimum weapons to the Battletanks ?

>>55045863

1st of all, you need to have a company or platoon commander in your army for each command squad, but also those command squad setups are a waste.

Scrap 2 entirely, and have 4 squads of 4 plasma/melta (plasma is better due to range, but have 1 squad of melta too)
Take 2 chimeras and put 2 command squads in each along with a company commander in each. Then with your freed up elites slots take 2 platoon commanders and use them to order your infantry squads. Consider putting special weapons in your infantry squads too.

>if you ran a local tourney would you ban forge world or allow it?
Allow it. FW takes me to flavor town (unlike 90% of vanilla).

>what one unit in the game would you like to see buffed?
I assume out of my own faction:
Trazyn stands up with 1d3 wounds after replacing a full-health 4 or 5 Wound Lord/Overlord. Why is he my Warlord? Trash.
Honestly, I feel the crons are pretty balanced this go around. Flayed Ones cost too much, but that has been since forever.
Deathmarks suck, but that's because almost ALL sniper units suck.
Doom/Night Scythes suck and don't have hover? Issues.
Tank is expensive... ehh... not sure what needs to be done to it. I wont field it till I feel its worth it.

>you have to kiss one member (male or female) of a xeno/imperial/chaos faction, what do you choose?
Again, I assume out of my own faction: The Silent King. He needs to feel the love.

>>55046166
Oh and it does not have the Transport Key word so no moving you unit(only one unit at a time!) After they get out.

>These God-engines, properly classified as Terranic Pattern Warlord-Sinister Psi-Titans, were each rebuilt around an Emperor-designed psychic amplification matrix device called the Ciricrux Anima. In place of the standard Titan configuration of Mind Impulse Units, it was this which controlled and empowered the Warlord-Sinister and in place of the Moderatii that would normally crew a Battle Titan, the Psi-Titans were instead crewed by what might be considered the damned -- bound psykers surgically locked in place and slaved to the will of the Preceptor-Intendant who mastered the God-engine in place of a Princeps.
>By direct cortical control, the power and spirit of the bound psykers were siphoned off and focused by the arcane technologies of the Ciricrux Anima, the baleful device that truly makes the Psi-Titan what it is. This energy was controlled by a techno-arcane interface quite unlike that of a standard configuration Mind Impulse Unit, while much of the Psi-Titan's other functions were slaved to sub-automata systems and Machine Spirit homunculi. Set at the heart of the storm of these energies, the Preceptor-Intendant sat in a shielded command crucible in the Titan's head. But even this was insufficient to entirely protect them from the psychic forces at play, and so each Titan commander of the Ordo Sinister was a psychic Blank, an Untouchable

Not currently, but that's the benefit of playing Orks, you can kitbash anything.
>if you ran a local tourney would you ban forge world or allow it?
That's a tough call. There's a lot of flavorful stuff in FW, but a lot of broken stuff too. For instance, I have a list of Snakebite Orks, and Squiggoths are a big part of my strategy, so if I banned FW that'd be gone. I guess I'd allow it and hope it doesn't get too bad.
>what one unit in the game would you like to see buffed?
I'm still pretty new to 8e (I've only played one or two games.) but looking at my index...Stompas. Poor poor Stompas.

Either your friends are shit players, you broke the rules or most likely both.
Any army like tau, AM or IG shoul aleays have bubble wrap to their heavy hitters to prevent T1 charges.
That said, I don't think there is any single unit in the game that could wipe out half of any-non hyper elite low model count army T1.
Which means you either broke the rule of 1, or even worse, brought a list designed to spam Da Jump in a narrative or open play game.

I'd say have is a bit of a stretch. It was a 2v2 1k point match. I destroyed two of the Mech's units in shoot and in charge. Then went to town on what little he had left while my partner dealt with the Tau until I could trukk my Nobz to the other corner of the table. To be fair, the Mech player doesn't know what bubble wrapping is I think, so I was able to easily gut the heavy hitters in his army.

Thinking of running ten Hellblasters with standard plasma weaponry.

Is this efficient for a Primaris heavy force? I really like them but ten plasma weapons are insanely expensive.

>>55045908
>what army do you play
Grey Knights and Thousand Sons
>choppy, shooty, or a mix?
Mix, leaning towards shooting
>do you own any forge world?
The FW GK land raider redeemer. When I use it (which is almost never) I just use it as a regular redeemer. No regrets, that tank is just damn sexy.
>if you ran a local tourney would you ban forge world or allow it?
If I'd ban things I would ban specific units, rather than banning based on where something was bought.
>what one unit in the game would you like to see buffed?
GK Librarians. There's just no reason to take one ever right now, they cost more points than a Brother-captain but have worse stats and no buff aura.
>you have to kiss one member (male or female) of a xeno/imperial/chaos faction, what do you choose?

>>55046458
Well the normal ones can take a lascannon so that isn't a big deal. I guess its probably this co-axial thing but that adds less than 1 average damage to its gun if its within 24". So maybe they should have made it 15 points for expensive, not close to as bad as the SM Leviathan being about 80 points under-costed.

>>55046517
They were already overpowered motherfucker, 3 points for a fucking 2W 4++ model would be utter bullshit.
Even a gun that hits and wounds on 2s with rerolls to hit and to wound would need either 4.47 shots or 4.47 damage to statiscally kill just one model.

Looking to find a new army for when I can eventually start buying and building again, trying to decide.
Main decision is aesthetic, after my last army was nerfed into oblivion I just want to enjoy painting and making fluffy lists.
Help me pick between:
Orks, for their character, kitbash ability and just fun.
AdMech because of the bits of Skitarii I already have, conversions and lore as well as awesome FW models.
Or Chaos, for overall customizability?

You might as well ask if conscripts are good for guard; yes hellblasters are one of the really nice things you get as primaris and you should take a healthy amount of them.

I would say Admech because I'm biased as fuck and love converting Admech things, but if you outstrip me in patience you could always wait and see what the Admech codex is like and decide then. If it fixes our problems or there's news from Cyraxis by then go Admech, if it leaves us fucked go Orks.

Does anyone know any third parties that produce Not!Dark Eldar blasters?

I know I can scavenge from various kits/convert from blaster pistols to create blasterborn but I was wondering if I could get something professional before I start fucking around with clippers and greenstuff. I bought legion plasma guns from Forgeworld to equip my scions with a shit-load of plasma and that worked well, was hoping to do the same with my Trueborn.

>>55046875

We have, what, five unknown codexes left this year? Eldar, Tau, Orks, Dark Eldar, and Necrons all deserve updates more than Thousand Sons. Not that faction size/importance matters that much (Grey Knights).

Repulsor has fly. Does that mean I can park it on top of a building? Seems unfair to my opponent.

All AsMech stuff at the minute is far too bland for my liking. I wanted to play crazy janky robotmen, not imperial guard.

It's different. Significantly simpler than 7th, and the games go much faster.

I prefer it, even though the psychic phase has been gutted.

>>55047006
They threw out lots of old, cancerous rules and made melee half decent but it does feel very simple at time with not many wargear options.

But arbitrarily decided lots of wargear load outs were no longer valid. Expect anything without a model to be removed from your codex, even simple things like the ability to give archons blasters or the ability to give the imperial guard anything but power swords.

Do we know how Primaris chapters recruit? Do they have scout equivalents? Trying to create some my dudes but I don't know how they recruit. Has GW bothered to tell us, or are they not bothering to tell us important, potentially interesting fluff.

>>55046949
I don't see why not. It's not like charging it is easy anyway, since it has that field around it and it can just fly out of combat and unload on everyone.

Are you supposed to thin Typhus corrosion?

>>55047006
It works pretty well. FWIW people have been flocking from HH to 8th Ed. Rather than the other way around. Try going back to the archives on warhammer-communuty.com from about the start of May and reading the preview articles. They do a pretty good job covering the high points of the new design. Alternatively there are plenty of reviews around online.

Ok that kind of triggers me. I was gutted when they took out most of the deldar special characters because they didn't have models, even if they were a bit shit.

Still don't even have modern Vect model/rules

>>55046957
Yeah, I have looks on Ebay/Bitz sites, unfortunately blasters are a really sought after weapon and our kits don't provide many of them so they're rare as hell/expensive.

So I have these guys, and kinda want to start a small Deathwatch force. I figure a start collecting set and a Corvus Blackstar would be the base of it, is there anything else that a Deathwatch army really needs to be at least semi-decent? I'll probably back them up with Primaris of a homebrew chapter and/or Sisters of Battle for bigger games, so just looking for tips for a real small force.

Would you play against an unpainted or just primed army?

Do you think the Adeptus Mechanicus will get new models with the codex release? My gut reaction is yes since they are the first non-Space Marine codex release, that has to be a good sign right?

>>55047187
I guess, wouldn't want to though.

>>55047187
Absolutely, I will admit I would get progressively more annoyed the longer they went without making progress on the army, anyone that tells you they would outright refuse to play them are liers and autists

>>55047187
Yeah, but then again I am looking to get some friends into the hobby. I'm going in expecting it'll take them forever to actually paint stuff, if they get started at all.

No real big models recently, other than Guilliman and Magnus, and Mortarion in the next few weeks.

Most of the new models are updated versions of older stuff, or are primaris marines.

>>55047192
They release shortly after a big release, like GK+CSMs did, so I wouldn't count on it to be honest. Might be a buffer release between DG and next release with models

Sure. If they bought some new toys and haven't had the time to paint there stuff, I see no reason to be annoyed. If they make no progress ever, and are clearly never interested in getting their force painted, however, I'd probably prefer to play someone else, but I'd never refuse a game just for that reason.

AdMech are my favorite Imperium faction but I know they need more models to fill in the gaps in their army.

>>55047173
It's even worse, they're taking out wargear options that don't have GW model representation.
No more chaos lords or sorcerers or any chaos characters on a bike anymore and no mounts, no juggers or palanquins.
No more rifleman dreadnoughts.
I'm pretty sure someone said razorbacks are no longer allowed lascannon-double plasma turrets or double assault cannons anymore.

Expect the same treatment when the codex of whatever your army is comes out.
They'll get rid of the warboss on bike, they'll get ride of the mega armoured warboss, they'll get rid of daemonic heralds on mounts and the like.

Here's what I run at around 500 points.

Frag cannons will most of the heavy lifting, xenophase blades aren't necessary but I play against tau regularly so they're useful and combi-weapons are fucking rough. If you have to, feel free to advance and fire if you get within 8" because that's when the DEATH AND FIRE mode of the frag cannons kick in and they're assault autohit.

Eldar would be interesting, but they have... issues. Otherwise, a female Imperial iterator would be safer than a Sister, and she could actually hold an intelligent conversation.

yes, normal marines have tactical flexibility whereas primaris have staying power. Both have their uses and both are a fine choice, that said normal marines have a ton of support that pure primaris lack so take some time to read about the differences.

Half the fun of that shit was converting your own Lord to represent wargear there weren't any models for.

They're Assault 2, S7, AP-2, D2 from 24-12". Assault 2, S9 AP-3, D2 from at 12" and Assault 2D6, S6, AP-1, D1, autohit at 8".

Spamming them was the name of the game in 7th, it's sort of toned down now since they were the only thing in the codex to actually go up in points and you're paying around 50 points for a 1 wound space marine.

>Chinese resin, will I actually get cancer or is that a meme?
I sadly don't know. The other Anon is right about it smelling foul, so they should be aired outside overnight at least. When working with potentially dangerous/cancerous chemicals/substances, the sensible thing to do is to treat it as if were highly cancerous. So when you handle it, clean your workstation often, wash your hands after working and wear a proper mask (there are different quality standards for particle filtration, so chose the best)

At the moment you can use Agressors in a deathwatch army but like...

Is it a bad idea to set them up before the codex comes out? What if the valid primaris units for deathwatch radically change?

Turn him on to a youtube channel with any really quick painting tips, or even just painting in general. I started painting again recently in part due to the Tabletop Minions channel (which got a whole thread bitching about it because the guy like AoS), mostly cause the guy has a soothing voice and gets me wanting to paint all my plastic toys. Also show him shit like pic related, painting doesn't have to be too involved unless you really, REALLY want to make every guy a showroom piece. Even if all he does is put a few base colors on, I'm sure it'll look pretty badass to see a whole force.

But if he's not actually playing, he should sell that shit. There are other gamers out there that would love to buy his hand-me-downs.

Yeah, they wanted to get back to basics so they gutted the rules and gutted ALL wargear,
Rams, spotlights, and all that other vehicle stuff? gone. They only kept hunter killer missiles and shock prows for DE. And that was just the index.

In the codex they proceeded to remove everything BUT Lord, jump pack lord and terminator lord, same deal for sorcerers but they added characters called "Exalted champions" which are like miniture chaos lords/dark aposals that allow all infantry near them to reroll to wound in the fight phase.
As much as I'm bitching about all the stuff we lost I actually really like chaos now, they're acually powerful and useable as a faction and are really fun to play.

They're basically chaos lords but they cost 4 less points in exchange for losing their 4++ and their BS goes from 2+ to 3+. They're less efficant as a single model when compared to the lord, they're support characters.

And besides, the lord already has a rerollable 2+ with the murder sword and he doesn't need to reroll to wound with it.

He has a 2+, rerollings 1s. He rerolls ALL hits all the time regardless and because of the way modifers work you're not allowed to rerolls hits of 2 with a power fist on an EC (rerolls before modifers).

Rerolls to wound doesn't matter with the murder sword but is much better for supporting units in the fight phase while being less versitile than the lords reroll ones for everything.

It did mention that Zeth had augmented herself to accentuate her looks, though. I guess it depends on the Magos, since I know that some Imperial Liason Magi sculpt their bodies with an eye to aesthetics. The Legio Invicta Executor apparently obtained some fangirl Tech-novices, and Zagreus Kane was apparently pretty ripped before he went full mechanical monstrosity after becoming FabGen.

In previous conversations here and elsewhere, no one's been able to determine if the fumes are harmful or not. It's probably not bad before it gets to us (it's the recasters taking the real risks) but air them out.

Resin dust is the more common danger and that's true no matter who cast it. Not a problem if you're using a knife, but sanding and sawing creates dust that you don't want in your lungs. Some people do that under running water instead of using a mask, or both.

>>55047855
There's a little bit in Mechanicum where Kelbor Hal decides against including Kane in his plotting because (essentially) he spent too much effort on fleshy gainz rather than just making a metal face-mask and carapace. Hal was completely right there for a whole bunch of reasons, but look at it this way. Kane changed the political landscape of Mars by not skipping leg day in favour of cybernetics.

That's a pretty neat interaction with Noise Marines tho. Reroll aura works on any shooting they do in the fight phase as well.

Planning a melee squad of Plaguemarines for my Deathguard army. Assuming all options and costs are the same as their entry in the new CSM codex, what seems to be the best loadout for this?
Are bubotic axes worth it at 6 pts each over just dual knives for free? I'm thinking two of those flails, two of their (plague) flamers or heavy flamers (not sure the heavy variant is worth another 9 pts as they're not likely to fire them very many times per game, though they do seem quite powerful) and then the rest just having dual knives to keep them cheap. Waiting for the codex to see if the champion gets any other interesting choices, but a fist isn't too expensive.
Maybe one or two with mace+axe would be worth it? Just a bit strange that they need to take them together.

Planning on having one of those squads together with a bunch of pozwalkers and melee characters (absolutely with Typhus if he stays this cheap). If I screen them with walkers, will my opponent be able to target the marines? Not sure about the shooting rules this edition

Trakta Kannon. It's significantly worse than both the other mek guns, even vs. air targets.

The hurricane isnt going to do shit this far inland. Its going to fuck Houston up the ass and most of the smaller places near the coast are going to get smashed, but Austin is too far inland to have major weather issues. It is just going to rain a bunch, which I suppose will make I35 a killzone but its always that way anyway.

I bought my paper from http://www.micromark.com/. Normal clear inkjet decal paper. I just have a recent $80 inkjet printer, Grab the decal images from Bolter and Chainsword. They have just about everything. http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/topic/143757-ye-olde-decal-project/.

You set the printer and printing properties to glossy paper and have the image print at actual size. Once it prints, spray the paper with a light coat of whatever acrylic clear coat you use to seal your models. GW's stuff works. Once that dries you can use the decals like any normal ones. Cut them out, dunk them and apply. They are a little thicker than commercial transfers I think so you can use some solvaset if you want it to hug detail more. http://www.micromark.com/Solvaset-Decal-Setting-Solution-2-fl-oz-bottle
Finally seal it with a spray or brush clearcoat.

The one thing to mention is that white is tricky. Since your printer cant print white you need to make sure to paint white under any white portion of the decal before you apply it. Trivial in my case for the chapter symbol. But could be tricky depending on your symbol. For this reason the borderless white fast attack symbol on the other shoulder wasn't actually printed. I'm just using the on from the normal Ultramarines transfer sheet you get in each box with my own printed squad number applied as another transfer on top.
