Just run them as Meltas.

How is the c-beam on chaos contemptors balanced? I can take 2 and basically use it for everything. It smokes backline units with its range and power, it smokes blobs by getting 2d6 extra hits on a unit anytime it slays a model, and it only costs 30pts

Tacs can charge after shooting, hit with heavy weapons on 4s instead of 6s, and transports are much tougher now, they're certainly better now.

Holy shit, I only have one of these things, I can only imagine how much it sucks for the people who built Steel Rain armies in 7th.

Is there any unit in the game that got nerfed harder than the Drop Pod?

>>55131942
you can never move with it and shoot in the same turn, so your opponent can charge it with chaff and negate the gun entirely.

>>55131978
I know it doesnt count but can I say Chimera anyway? Or even Infantry Teams? I feel like alot of things are worse now if just due to redundancy

>>55131963
Wounding T7 on a 5+ doesn't suck

>>55131978
Chaos Dreadclaws are 200pts, lost jink, and can't hold its occupants anymore. But hey, it can sort of melee but it suffers penalties after taking 2 wounds, so...

>>55131978

>>55131978

>>55131998
As a long time sisters player, I've never felt more strapped for special weapons than I do now. I thought 4 Heavy bolters, 8 meltas, 4 heavy flamers, 4 flamers, and 9 immolators would be enough forever. I think I have one stormbolter. Maybe 2 somewhere.

>>55132002
Only being able to take 1 special and 1 heavy in a ten man squad is shit.

>>55132034
Which they'll rarely get to do since you need to light up a target like a Christmas tree to ensure you don't miss a ton

>>55132040
Long-time player too, but second-hander.

I have 14 Storm Bolters, 12 Flamers, 96 Bolter Sisters, 1 Multi melta, 3 melta.

No one wanted to sell their good shit when I got my 2nd-hand-girls, I guess. I didn't play them for a long time because of that.

Now I've brought them out and just spray everything down with bolt guns.

And turn-1 Seraphim+Celestine

>>55132048
Yeeeeeup.

>>55132045

With universal split fire tac marines are so much better.

No more having to "waste" eight useless boltgun shots on a target just so you can shoot a missile at it, for example.

Best Chapter Tactic in the new Marine book?

Was honestly thinking Fists...because that zero-cover-save shit.

Picking a new army.

>>55132078

Niche choice but Iron Hands get a 6+ FNP roll, which isn't the flashiest tactic but it's "always on", as opposed to the more situational ones.

Other than that, Raven Guard's -1 to hit outside of 12" is pretty fucking powerful if you're taking lots of ranged units.

Primaris Marines were the right thing to do. The new kits are fucking sexy. I love rapid fire bolt rifles and auxiliary grenade launchers. There's no need for devastators when you can just have a one-size-fits-all weapon system in the new plasma incinerators. Inceptors make more sense in their purpose and weaponry than assault marines with jump packs. The new dread looks like it might actually be functional and it has workable legs.

>>55132103

Regardless of how you feel about the chadmarines, the Redemptor is a fucking beast on the table. Go double cannon and spit out shitloads of dakka whenever someone is dumb/unfortunate enough to get in range.

>>55132071

You have significantly more bolters than I do. Goddamn. I've been playing since 4th and I thought I had a lot. Oh well. I've been thinking about trying out some metal recasters because at this point, I don't want to mix resin into my all metal army for obvious reasons. I have always loved the horde of sisters, though, and I'm a little annoyed that we only get a unit of 15 now instead of 20.

I hate special characters, and the fact that Celestine is as strong as she is makes me never want to use her. However, I don't really have a choice because I haven't been able to use my canoness with jump pack since they forgot to include it in the white dwarf.

>>55132097
Ultras; having leadership 9 (or 10 if you're within banner range) and being able to fall back and rapid fire is clearly a winner.

>>55132097
Terminator heavy, unfortunately.
Also running Alpha Legion as primary so don't want to replicate that army.

Or am I.

What are some fluff ways to explain away the 6+ FNP? I was thinking of having them be like Black Crusaders but EXTREMELY RELIGIOUS on Sisters of Battle faith tier. Emperor Protects, etc?

Best load out for Hellblasters? The standard incinerator looks most versatile but maybe heavy is better if I move them with Repulsor?

>>55132129
there is no "best" - but you can't go wrong with the standard version.

>>55132119

Religious fanaticism blinding you to pain from a wound is an excellent way to justify a FNP roll within the lore.

Faith, grit, bionics, minor gene seed mutation that makes them more durable than normal

I want to take some Custodes with my Primaris but it makes me wonder if I'd just be better off with more Primaris.
They are such a fucking beastly assault unit though.

>>55132116
Don't mix, it isn't worth it. Honestly, you can get sisters cheaply enough on eBay if you don't fall for the meme-lists. Or try army sales/swaps. Recasters are... yeah. I bought 10 repentia caste out of fucking, I don't know, aluminum? I can't even trim their flashing without their shit bending and breaking. I'm ass mad over that.

I have Celestine purely because I -NEED- her for that powerboost you know? We really get gimped in that department. I hate Named Characters too...

But take heart; Celestine is the only named character that has any 'reason' to appear in your battles. Unlike [NAMED GUY #414], she is just a warp manifestation anyways so it really isn't a "person" per-se? I don't know, that's just how I live with it.

>>55132097
>Raven Guard's -1 to hit outside of 12" is pretty fucking powerful if you're taking lots of ranged units.
That tactic is borderline broken. It completely fucks any type of shooting army.

>>55132245
I particularly love how the DG miss the campaign where the DG attack Ultramar.

Playing against leaf blower lists was not fun. I'm not really sure why some people prefer just sitting on the edge of the table and shooting or firing artillery.

>>55132150
Ebay is a fucking joke when it comes to sisters anymore. They often charge more than GW prices and hardly ever cheaper.

I've used several recasters for my other armies, mostly CSM for HH bits, and have had very little problem, though I've not ordered sisters yet because I've seen how shitty they are. There are a few that look decent, however. We'll see. I don't know. The prices are just depressing, possibly even more so because I already have an army. I feel like I'm 1 can short of a 6 pack with my army.

As for Celestine, I never feel like I accomplished anything when I take her, but why would I take a canoness when I can take an unkillable flying murder machine with free faith? She's everything I hate about hero hammer.

Fuck you. You are the worst kind of player.

>>55132287
Their jump packs make for great harass early game, and their concussion grenades are amazing for kiting if you have the skill to pull it off. They're not very useful mid and late game, though.

>>55132294
To be fair they rigged it the other way when they let chaos win a planet. Still badly organized from the start, they should have given the xenos a good reason to go against the imperium

>>55132149
The way the guy at our store plays, he has Custodes in Land Raiders, and Primaris holding objectives and staying in cover. It works nicely.

>>55132310
Oh yeah no doubt. Chaos wins one planet and suddenly it's as if Imperials hadn't won the last 3. Pretty retarded campaign all around.

>>55132302
Now now anon,I just want some feedback before I go looking through successor chapters. Haven't played marines yet so don't have any previous attachments.
>>55132308
Sounds good, didn't think about grenade tactics either

>>55132287
They're devastators that come with their own drop pod and don't have any move and fire penalty when they land. That's their primary use. If they don't die after, they're attack bikes.

White Scars, Salamanders and Imperial Fists are literally the only CT that affect them.

White Scars lets them advance at 12+D6" while still shooting at a 4+, Salamanders and Imperial Fists helps their damage

Ultramarines does literally nothing for them since they have fly

>>55132287
I had forgotten about these goofs.
Anyway, paint them as Black Templars, they really synergize

She also doesn't use the same Geminae Superior every time. The Sisters pick two of their own to (implied) commit suicide to join her for a particular battle as her chosen. (See recent book.)

>>55132281
I agree with you on Hero Hammer. I could run without her but...why not? I do like her, fluff wise. I tend to avoid using her unless it is a large enough battle, which I rarely do. Though I do fucking love her model.

As for eBay... You know the penitents? Pic related. Direct from GW. $35 a pop. I go onto eBay and they are $60-120 a piece. Wanna know what is funny about this? When I got mine, a shipping error had me call them. I had ordered 3, but the warehouse only had 1.

I asked "hey just send me the one, that's cool. I really don't NEED 3 anyways right?"
>Wait a sec...
>Hey, are these just from a warehouse until you sell out or are you still casting them?
>"No we still cast them. We have 40 coming in August. I'll send you 2 more."
>K thxn

So they cast 40. 40 Penitents for the entirety of North America. Yeah not a lot of sisters I know, right?

>Ebay in August
>Suddenly 'new' looking penitents
>Go to GW website
>SOLD OUT

TLDR: eBayers buy the 'SOLD OUT' models from GW as soon as they list them on their website. Then they turn around and put the items on eBay as 'OOP'

This is why I quit using eBay for anything I don't HAVE to have and CAN NOT acquire elsewhere.

>>55132323
i was making a joke that they are clearly influenced by starcraft's marines and the jump packs would make them reapers. I thought it was funny that blizzard and GW keep taking inspiration from/ripping off the other

>>55132315
I do hope we get more global campaigns soon though. Flawed as this one was it's still fun, and if they fine tuned the balance it could be great. Or go back to the 13th crusade style campaign, which had it's own problems, but letting factions band together and choose targets was wonderful.

>>55132328
Ultramarines gives access to the Scions of Gulliman stratagem, which lets you drop down and hose some fools with overcharged plasma without blowing yourself up.

>>55132347
I didn't play that, so I fear it was lost on me

>>55132328
White scars looks good, it'll be a footslogging force so the mobility is appreciated, especially as if I expand it'll likely be into aggressors

>>55132390
So are bolter aggressors objectively better than flamer aggressors? Seems that way to me.

Either one with veil of time look like a real hassle for any melee based horde.

>>55132342

>I agree with you on Hero Hammer. I could run without her but...why not?
I started using her in 5th edition with the WD because you were actively crippling yourself for now taking her. Back then, she was 125pts with infinity respawns and cost less than a canoness with any amount of gear. After that, I decided to go Celestine-free all through 6th/7th edition and won far more than I lost.

>I do like her, fluff wise. I tend to avoid using her unless it is a large enough battle, which I rarely do.
I like her fluff, too, but I just get autistic about herohammer. I remember the days when characters couldn't be taken under 1500pts AND they needed special permission to use. If I wanted every game to be about [Named character] vs [Named Character], I would play warmachine.

There are 3 characters I would play, though:
Celestine because she is the only special thing we have
The Changeling because the old metal model is possibly my favorite model
Tyberos because murder mittens and he's legit the only carcharodon left.

>Though I do fucking love her model.
I haven't bought her new one yet because I haven't found anyone to split the box with, and its not worth buying separate on ebay to me.

>As for eBay
For a long time, people were trying to sell immolators for like $120+ not realizing that you could buy an exorcist and get a full immolator. Ebay is such a cancerous place for sisters because of people trying to scalp shit. This isn't MtG.

>>55132414
I'm considering a fast attack detachment of renegade bikers and an exalted champ with a fist to rip and tear.

>>55132460
>Immolator Exorcist
If I wasn't broke, I'd of done this but... I got lucky. I ended up with a 2nd Edition Whirlwind, 2nd Edition Immolator, and 2x 2dn Edition Rhinos for cheap. I've been tempted to use them for my sisters for variety purposes.

Not him, but as some one else that doesn't much care for special character spam it's weird that two of your exceptions (Celestine and changeling) are two of mine too, along with the Phoenix lords; I guess because they're all easy to rationalize as showing up for any old random battle on behalf of their faction and because death isn't that big a deal for any of them either

Why are drop pods shit now anon? I don't play marines, and neither do any of the guys I play with, so I wouldn't know, but I would have assumed the ability to deliver your troops anywhere within 9 of the enemy with absolute precision would be pretty good.

>>55132537
welp, around the time when I bought basically a new army when I've already not finished 3 others

you got chinacast or original minis? I'll get the new Custosed termies once they come out but I just might get em off chinamen

>>55132561
They're expensive as balls, units inside can't deploy within 9" of an enemy, and half your army has to start on the table.

>>55132561
>90pts each

They can be good situationally, but generally they are way too expensive for much use

So. Tons-of-Marines dude here. Gonna try the 'your dudes' route.

Decided to actually use the Marine Chapter generator because I like random things. It gives me something to work with in telling a story.

Could be that they worship the emperor in different aspect, like how the ad mech venerate the emperor as the omnissiah

This could easily lead to heresy, but doesn't necessarily have to

Or they could just have some very unappealing ritual, like the flesh eaters or angels sanguine

This could also lead to heresy

The moment he dies chaos opens huge warp portals directly on Terra and destroy the planet.

This is why the Tyranids keep heading toward Terra, the Emperor is intentionally calling them there. Once they arrive their Shadow over the Warp will allow the Emperor to die but block chaos from opening portals into realspace from the immaterium. The Emperor can then reincarnate and destroy the Tyranid hive fleets, and launch a second great unification across the galaxy.

When he dies the amount of worship directed towards him coupled with his own power will create a warp entity that will dwarf the chaos gods.

But he's trapped on the throne and no one is willing to euthanize him, so he's stuck.

>>55132717

I like the concept of the Emperor trying to die so he can be reborn but no one will let him and he's just been waiting to die for the last 10,000 years.

>>55132708
But anon...

The Emperor created the "current" Chaos Gods.

No think about it. All the current Gods, except Slaanesh being fucked into existence by Eldar, were brought into creation during major periods of human antiquity. Every single event described (ie: plagues, etc) are post-Emperor. It's also been proven the Emperor will establish 'evil' things for the sake of gaining advantages (the dragon.)

I'm not saying Chaos is the creation of the Emperor but let me propose this theory.

>Chaos Gods of old are decimated in war
>Chaos itself is without form and direction, is just the Primordial Annihilator
>Shamans sense this evil and the power of humans to essentially create millions of dangerous gods
>Shamans become Emperor
>Emperor directs humanity to a series of events to 'collect' the chaos powers into individual Gods
>Individual Gods are easier to manipulate in the coming future
>Plan going well
>Technology at its peak
>Psykers 'suddenly show up' across the species (Emperor is a master geneticist & psyker remember?)
>Psykers suddenly bring about human-fucking-event
>Old Night happens as well, Emperor's plans get a little fucked by this, Eldar screwed things up
>Gets plan back on track by coming out as the Emperor and reunifying everyone etc. as we know

IF you think my idea is "stupid" then I ask you this. Why did the Emperor put "The Dragon" on Mars in ~1000 AD if he didn't plan to have a machine rebellion bring about a machine cult? A machine rebellion that (likely) was brought on by chaos.

>>55132731
Different anon, but after 8th dropped, my group couldn't even get through a single game of HH because 7th is shit. The game was only good because 40k was so bad.

>>55132748
I do. Then the scans came.

Such a mess.

I get that it's basically a historical war game, but that community has the most anal, difficult, OCD people to talk to

I made a couple of Death Guard lists and the first one they refused to critique because it had "too many tanks for death guard" and then the other they said was dogshit because it had too many marines - the exact thing they said I HAD to do with it for it to become fluffy - and whined that it wouldn't be competitive enough

I just wanted to have my little men

Seemed like a good idea at the time, plus 30k is generally a larger scale game like that other dude said. Ultimately, I'm going to make 20 of them raptors (pic related prototype), my MkIIIs are going to be chosen, and an arbitrary amount of Mkivs will be havocs or troops because I feel like that's what Night Lords would do. However, I've become addicted to my 10 man termie squad, and that's just a huge 500pt chunk of my army.

>>55132834
I'm friend with one of the LGS owners around here. He had a Calth that wasn't selling and sold it to me for $85. Then I ran a painting event for him and got $50 credit, which I then used to buy the other one neither of us realized he had just sitting in the window.

Oh definitely, though a lot of my dudes are in states sub assembly waiting to be primed or painted if they're already printed, and I have actually put together a large chunk of the deldar, about 1500pts worth. However, painting deldar is a fucking nightmare, and this is coming from a person who play night lords and actually paints lightning on everything (pic related), so I'm kind of in limbo there.

For my night lords, I could easily do more than 2000 points with what I have mostly assembled, which is mostly infantry. Like, I own zero dinobots/preds, and I feel like I don't have room for what I want at 2000pts.

I also have 2500pts of sisters mostly painted because they were my first, and some mediumish pile of tzeentch daemons I bought in 5th.

And as previously mentioned, a swapping a squad for a blob of cultists would let you use their stratagem for effectively even more dudes. Another hq would be good, probably a lord as you're going to be rolling lots of dice and rerolls just get better that way.

That crazy stuff in CC on the BW comes in at a cool 180 points, all on a 4+ save chassis. Every game I've used them the enemy has been able to focus them down extremely quickly.

Invuls on a squad that expensive very much matter, especially when they don't have a buffer of high wounds like say, Killa Kans do.

Running them in 7th meant using the Bully Boyz formation, which gave them all +1 WS, Fear and Fearless, which, combined with really cheap transports, meant you could just blitz across the board. Sure, if they brought tons of AP2 you just fell apart, but that's the same for regular Deathwing. Now the transports are too expensive, they're not Fearless anymore unless they're within 6" of a big Boyz mob and weapons they used to largely ignore like Heavy Flamers are now quite dangerous to go against. Hell, the Painboy nerf also means they don't have that easy access to 5+ FNP.

The army was by no means great in 7th (no Ork list was great in 7th) but MANZ were the go-to Ork assault unit in 7th, and Bullyboyz was the best formation we had. MANZ now are virtually unplayable by comparison.

Man, I've tried doing Greenstuff. I'll paint lightning for days, but I am just horrendous when it comes to sculpting. Good on you for being able to stick with it, though. I wish I had the motivation, but that is another kettle of fish.

Apostle allows you to use his LD (of 9) rather than the squad's. Also, he allows re-roll of all hits (I can't remember if that's just in the fight phase or in general) both of those abilities are within 6 inches, but if you paint them as Word Bearers you can get that up to 9inches.

>>55133274
If you're going to Horde deldar, go with Kabalites. They're cheap, quick, and surprisingly durable thanks to a 5+/6+++. Plus, they can actually plink away at things from more than 8" away.

>>55133296
I'm just saying, the icon of vengeance gives +1Ld to the squad how does that interact with the Apostle? If it doesn't, then the apostle actually hinders their Leadership.

>>55133274
Okay I suspect, but not great. T5 a d power from pain is good but you're still looking at low armor saves for your infantry, as well as little shooting. Better off with slightly less dudes but transports to get them into combat sooner, as well as for fire support.

>>55133306
>Icon of Vengeance +1 leadership
in that case you actually need the apostle to get to 10.
CSM are 7 by default, Aspiring Champion is 8. If Dark Apostle brings that whole squad up to 9 then IoV brings them up to 10.

>>55132482

Just mistyped there. They both have only 2.
Thanks for the notice.

>>55133224
I think that's legal, combat squads says the split happens before any models are deployed.
The main rulebook says that you declare what units are inside a transport the moment you set it up which is after the squads are split.

Clever tactic, be sure to get your explanation straight or people might give you shit for it

Bolter, but finecast.

On a serious note, no. Daemon princes are too melee rapey to waste guns on it.

I put 3 nurglings in front of that bitch boy and after all shots were resolved, I only lost one wound. His rolls were average.

>>55133367

I don't have the, hrm what's the best way to put it. Shit like that requires at least some degree of passion, of which I am incapable.

That unit ability
Treat 1 and 2 on d6 damage rolls as 3 will probably crop up as a CT for someone

I REALLY want to get good at sculpting blobby nurgle daemons.

Going to be trying to make my own "gigantic chaos spawn " in the form of a face oozing out of the base. I already ordered a 100mm base, doll eyes, and acrylic teeth.

Wish me luck guys

>>55133373
the other thing is conscripts come in batches of 10 so you cant have 45

i also dont like the heavy flamer demolisher because they are so expensive right now and you need to be in melta range to do anything with them

>>55133467
Weapons that roll for shots, roll twice and pick the better number. Another possibility. Both shooty and for things with some randomness so maybe Admech/Tau CTs

>>55131978
>high risk/high reward drops

Surely you jest, drop pods were never anything less than low risk/high reward

>>55133410
It's an assault 2 gun with some -1ap and 2 damage it's fine while your daemon prince is moving his way into melee or just before charging.

>>55132721
Nice Iron Warriors :^)

>>55133481
Would it not be best to practice making little nurglings and squigs and shit first?
>acrylic teeth
I don't even

>>55133410
It's 9 points for 24" Assault 2 S4 AP-1 D2. Considering a Daemon Prince is BS2+ with a reroll there is literally no reason not to give him a warp bolter.

You just got to find a source of passion.

For me, it was sculpting stuff that really embody what I want my models to be. Like this hordes trollkin that has gotten backstabbed by one of my Legion of Everblight, Nephilim Soldiers.

Just bought a Talons of the Emperor box to start up an Imperium army. How should I expand from there? I would like to get Celestine in the future but other than that I'm lost.
