OK then, although I'm still a little sceptical.

Mostly I'm just sick of my faction always being either irrelevant or incompetent. No priests exist in BL books that aren't dogmatic idiots that cause problems, Forge Worlds never manage to deal with shit themselves and are always taken down by stuff that they shouldn't even consider major threats, like 1/1000 the minimum Skitarii garrison for a major Forge World's number in Orks or a few thousand Marines and Imperial Army like on Mezoa, where the writers cut the defenders for an entire planet to less than 15 thousand and said the FW was crippled for decades because one Magos died and one forge was shot up with bolters.
Fucks sake, at least the Nids are given the decency of being killed rather than just ignored completely whenever we might get in the way or having every single battle we're in stolen by the Astartes. Would it kill the writers to have one or two books where they actually spend ten minutes to get their maths remotely close to proper scale? Or point out that the Imperium would pretty much instantly collapse without us so some Admech must be good at their jobs?

Yes, orks are everywhere and Ghaz is uniting them bit by bit, having that as a unified force would break the Imperium even further because at this point they would not be able to take an organized threat coming from an enemy that outnumbers them, they barely managed fighting off the Beast and thats when the Imperium wasnt being fucked by Chaos, Tyranids and had the Tau nibbling at their tits.

Enjoy any games recently /tg/?

I got a game in with my new possessed, raven guard vs crimson slaughter, they managed to run and and chop up lots of venguard veterans while tanking lots of wounds.
That was on the first turn of the game even, I think we lost half our armies on the first turn shooting each others to bits and slicing each other up in melee, after that he killed all my units but lost so much he didn't have enough to get off my end of the board before being shot down.

>>55141461
Fucks your problem m8?

>>55141496
>How do you defend from a boarding action?

By defending the boarder's objectives, the main bridge and power source or gellar generators. You dont need to hunt them down when they'll come to you and if they just wanted to fuck your guns up then you can fight them there.

>>55141493
They already have arms.

>>55141514
Fuck's yours m8?

>>55141469
The imperium is stretched quite thin as it is at the moment to have a fuckhueg ork waagh in their hands too though.

>>55141493
Fist and scourge or double las and missiles for maximum efficiency.

Fist n scourge better on melee legion tactics like world eaters or renegades while las n missiles on shooty legions like alpha legion.

>>55141676
Elevators don't run through the lenght of the ship. And you didn't answer the other questions.

>>55141636
I assume since they're big they can act as the "big guys" in your army that aren't magnus or transports without being overly costed.

>>55141690
Brace for impact, block off that section of the ship.

Luckily, they sent berzerkers who are not equipped to break bulkheads and are too stupid to hack the door.

>>55141679
Ah shit, found the pictures. Ok fair enough it's a Lord of Change conversion but the head WIP shows an actual ornate owl's head BEFORE the greenstuff. What's it from?

>>55141582
They're kind of squashy and can't do their job as well as regular legion brutes without the free bonuses.

Use them to fill in gaps you have? If you're running lots of rubrics then you're pretty shooty and vulnerable to melee, maybe give it a lascannon and scourge so it can join the gunline but then lurge forward and counter attack any approaching melee troops.

>>55141677
It literally was a nonissue and a mild bug. Anticipated and fixed in so many applications that barely anyone remembers it today. They wouldn't even regard it as anything but a bug.

>>55141579
>Which is?

At the core of the ship, the power source and main engines should be deep inside the structure at the end of the ship and its not impossible to build a 3 dimensional perimeter around those locations as soon as boarders are confirmed and its not like they are using all personnel to build that when they can potentially send the rest of armed serfs to push them away.

>>55141630
Yeah basically.

My current idea is that he was unknowingly in a time loop set by a daemon prince that he had banished as revenge, forever doomed to get torn apart trying to keep an important imperial world (and his trusted companions) from being eaten by a daemonic apocalypse. Each time he would fail horribly in some new way until he accidentally encounters an alpha level null that brings him out of the loop and restores his now thousands of years of torturous memories.

Also to rub it in, leaving the loop essentially erased him from time, causing him to lose all of those precious companions he had thousands of years of memories with, as they'll never have met him.

I don't know, I hope it sounded 2000 AD enough.

>>55141731
Oh fuck, he's clever.

It's literally the left over LoC bits

>>55141690
Shotgun equipped armsmen, tarantula sentry turrets and "Murder Servitors" hidden in secret compartments.

FW's Death in the Void expansions details this a bit.

>>55141716
The bridge and sometimes auxiliary bridge are usually on the top of the ship with giant windows

The thing powering the ship is the plasma generator and probably the most well-guarded portion of the ship.

There is no up or down in space but even if we assume all the gravity generators are facing the same way they could takes trains through the ship and the men at arms on board probably spread out through the ship to consolidate on specific parts when shit goes down.

How do naval battleships defend themselves?

>>55141890
Still more infantry. Lasguns are done but the differing nature of all the specials and officers is making me abandon batch painting. Instead I'm just doing a "per squad" basis. Take out 8 lasguns, pick a special to paint, pick a sgt to paint. Much more relaxing this way.

I ran a Meka-Dread on the weekend in a 3 game tournament. No rules for the Mega-Dread yet.

Overall, he's not brilliant. He sort of stradles the line between a Deff Dread and a Gorkanaut, both in terms of points and killyness. T7 is a big downside; makes him much squishier than the Gorka. I ran him with 2 Ripper Klaws because that's how I built the model, and they're pretty killy; Str 12, Ap-3 and D6 damage. But it's still just 6 attacks, meaning they're only really good vs elite stuff. The Gorka on the other hand can get 18 attacks, all at Str 8, Ap-2 and 2 dmg each, instead of its 6 big smashy attacks. That makes them very versitile. In all 3 of my games my Meka didn't really accomplish much, whereas my Gorka, whenever it got stuck in, was a real blender.

The Ramshackle Monster rule is pretty pointless overall; sure it sounds kind of useful but I'd trade it for a flat invul save any day of the week. I think it saved 2 wounds the entire day, and I mean I rolled poorly, sure, but you can't count on it for much. Mega Charga is very good however; effectively it guarentees you a first turn charge with a 16" move.

Fluff-wise, my Exalted Champion idolizes him and wants senpai to notice him (lord is full-on anti-vehicle with a combi-melta and chainfist, champ has a powerfist to try and be like his crush). ExChamp is holding a skull in his fist so thinking of giving the lord a skull head. This make it seem like the ExChamp has a bust of his head like a tsundere schoolgirl with a shrine to her crush.

In theory, yes, if Ghazzy gets enough Orkz together (and there's no real reason why he shouldn't) the Great WAAAAGH could take any faction in the galaxy comfortably. In practice, it's gonna be Imperium versus Chaos from now on, because Imperials are the only True Heroic Good Guys and Chaos is the Ultimate Evil that's Destined to Win and everything else is window dressing. Hope you enjoy being comedic relief, though.

Yep, they either fed real information to the Inquisition via this guy and then had him killed or he was an operative feeding false or real information to the Inquisition and he was found out. Actually both work in that now the Inquisition knows nothing about them and cant trust their own information even if it was real, now they are effectively looking for lies when they already had the truth or they have nothing on them.

>>55142930
This is why you have 2three primarchs for the alpha legion instead of just 1, Dorn

>>55142735
Boston doesn't look that bad just from that map. Had a friend who took me on holiday to Italy once, and some of their towns were probably designed as tributes to Tzeench with the amount of tiny side streets and random inconsistent mazes there. Kinda fun just to wander, though.
Then I visit New York and all the directions are instantly obvious and easy to infer. Sometimes I wish Britain had got the chance to forward plan everything, the local castles we get in return aren't really an exciting trip anymore and our attempt at a ringroad is a horrible monstrosity of evil.

>>55142735
Restricted space vs. not, I assume.

Go research how urban development can literally fuck with the collective psyche of the inhabitants. Humans don't like monotony, despite their desire for order in a chaotic world. Bored humans become depressed or destructive.

A lot of old European cities were built back when they had fortified walls around them. Usually city centers are a mess while further out you get more modern straight and wide streets.

Does anyone have the files for the eye of night or hand of darkness audio dramas?

>outplotted
Dorn out-stupided Alpharius by not getting the message he was trying to send after Alpharius purposefully refrained from killing him

And yeah Omegon honestly was the more competent one, considering he stole the primaris goop from Corax and gave half of it to Cawl while tricking Abaddon and Fabius Bile

Why bother anon? You know took all this time screencapping shit, but you must know what people are going to say in response. You know it, and you probably have some counter arguments prepared, but in the end, you can't really definitely, conclusively say it's wrong, because the setting is too broad, too bullshit, and the character in question is designed to get this response. So I'll say it just to get it out of the way:

>He's as dead as disco.
That's what Alpharius wants you to think.

>Dorn can easily see through Alpharius shenanigans
That's what Alpharius wants you to think.

>Omegon believes that he's dead
That's what Alpharius wants you to think.

>This is cheesy bullshit you can't just ignore everything
That's what Alpharius wants you to think.

>Canon matters not your fucking meme shit
That's what Alpharius wants you to think.

>>55143167
That and the other AL fluff bits in the codex are pretty great. GW did a good job with CSM book writing.

>>55143123
I don't have to, I can just look at some 80's and 90's construction projects around where I live, where whole blocks have been built by the same company on the same template, resulting in scores of buildings that looks alike with no distinguishing features.

But aren't Hive Worlds the result of thousands of years of building and repairs, which should make the structures far less monotone and much more varied, as pieces are falling apart and being repaired with thousands of years of construction knowledge, skills and philosophy between them. I always picture them more like old Mega City One with all the goofy buildings and shit, rather than a monotone grey blocks like in the last movie.

>>55143181
Honestly it's basically confirmed Alpharius became a demon prince gestalt that can manifest in any alpha legionnaire, it wouldn't really surprise me if he came back with Omegon going loyalist(ish) like Cypher

A lot of them still have the walls, and there's a few in Britain like that too. Bunch of random wall sections around Exeter, for instance, since at some point in the intervening years between the rest being knocked down and now they became History, and therefore sacred. We can't do new towns, though, since we always try to build them like a natural rambling town and it looks kinda uncanny valley since everything is new. Looks normal from above and then you go there and everything has the exact same level of weathering and such, it's wierd.
At least we don't have those huge empty cities like you see occasionally, where they were a bit optimistic with their population estimates. That would be creepy as hell to live in.

They're more like cities like Rio or São Paulo. The richfags build their glass spires and the scum build their favelas around the bases. As the filth breed more, they build their favelas taller, and then the richfags build higher to avoid them. They'll close off the lower levels of their swanky buildings and the scum will swoop in and create more shanties, or the richfags will turn the lower levels of their buildings into factories so they can get richer still.

>>55143234
30k Raptors don't have the two extra organs (the steel muscles and the Cawl furnace) but they are noticeably larger and quicker than normal marines, implying that they had the 3rd special organ that mimicked the Primarchs own demi God organ, which the primaris have exactly half of.

Early on in the hobby, I bought a huge sack of wine bottle corks because I wanted to try my hands at making relatively nice looking bases. But it only got people mad at me constantly because it was "modeling for advantage".

>>55141514
Sent to his room without bitty.

>>55143330
if you really want to appease the cunts just give him a banner so he's taller

>>55143471
Basically I cut the wine bottle corks into short little strips, and then glue it on top of the base, then the model on top of the cork. The model and cork gets primed and painted together, then I add a bunch of basing material.

Honestly it's a pretty simple and neat way to make the model look a lot better if you're starting out. Just paint the cork in some kind of concrete colour, and then add plants. But the problem with competitive people is that it makes the model like 2 milimeters taller, which apparently gives you a small advantage in "True Line of Sight"

>>55143479
You aren't the first to do this. Sorry.

Quick question but is the chinaman more cancerous than fw resin or is it about equal?

Originality doesn't exist anymore, there will always be someone who did it before you. Still, It's the first time I thought of it myself, so I'm happy with the result~

>>55143513
But the reverse applies. If your model can "see" an enemy model, that model can see yours. The advantage you gain is lost by virtue of the opponent seeing yours as well.

No it wasn't, faggot. People wanted the vehicle wrecks to remain, but you didn't want that to happen because it relies on TLOS. What you didn't seem to understand is that nothing fucking changes because vehicles ALREADY block line of sight. Ergo your issue with the vehicle wrecks remaining on the board is moot by the very fact that the rule applies regardless. You introduced the secondary argument only when you got called out.

Make your mind up for a color scheme, get base, shades and highlights. Get washes! Recommend GW color for washes and Metallic paints, alternative is army painter or vallejo, but I personally stick with gw nowadays
Plastic glue
Something to cut sprues

Vehicle wrecks remaining is bad because it is TLOS. The TLOS rule is a bad rule and it is a bad rule choice to make/resurrect a rule that is founded on the basics of the bad rule

If the wrecks are to come back, it must be done so that LOS rule itself must be fixed first. Make the vehicles actually hold a volumetric space of defined dimensions. Once the LOS rules get fixed, every LOS interacting rule, including terrain effects can be implemented without issues.

Removing TLOS and actually having vehicles on bases also brings back the option of having facings and fire arcs on vehicles since those arcs can be put on bases.

Since GW refuses to put bases on their tracked vehicles, we can't afford to bring in more LOS based vehicle model interactions.

>>55144570
You do fucking realise that by making vehicles occupy a volumetric space does nothing to solve your TLOS issue, you fucking retard. You make it worse, since the vehicle occupies a larger space than it physically does, because, and this might shock you, you need TLOS to see the fucking BASE THE MODEL OCCUPIES LOOOOOOOL

Fucking hell.

I'm almost glad they got rid of firing arcs. I always wanted to be an asshole to my gaming buddy who parked his Basilisks completely sideways to stuff them into cover then fire them like that.

Never realized how badly vehicles fucked rules up, glad we're past all that shit

No you don't, you've obviously not played any games using bases and volumetrics for LOS. If you stopped cackling like a hyena and actually acquired some experience or literacy, you would know this.

The physical model should have no bearing on LOS. Modelling for advantage should never be an option. Volumetric LOS creates definable area where LOS can be restricted from. GW already creates multiple base sizes that facilitate this already and also has the benefit of allowing hobbyists to do more elaborate or bigger conversion works without being disadvantaged.

>>55141909
>has to pay people to keep them in his life
lmao

>>55144732
You are talking nonsense. If it can see a base you can see the model, so if you can't see the base you can't see the model, correct? So what fucking difference does it make?

What should we do about the Repulsor tank, then. The base it is supplied with is considerably smaller than the physical model. And you fucking speak of "modeling for advantage" lmfao you're fucking retarded.

Seriously just end your life before your genetic material further pollutes an already fucked gene pool.

The imperium should always be at least tangentially related in large scale events. Too big to ignore kinda deal, both in and out of the lore.

Mind, there's a lot of mileage in (imperium) versus (xenos), because of how many factions you have to choose from. Theme the narrative around (mechanicus) versus (orks), (deathwatch) against (necrons), (Imperial Guard subfaction #37821) against (eldar), or something. Set it on a random slab of rock, and then add the result to the ongoing history of the setting. Sort of like what they did with the ichar IV and armageddon (even if they handled armageddon's ending exceptionally poorly).

>>55144852
No.

Xenos fight each other all the time. Chaos fights xenos all the time. Chaos even fights itself.

>>55144816
>So what fucking difference does it make?
Volumetrics matter for height, mostly relevant for hovering models since as of now, TLOS means that any model flying on their bases are much easier to spot on the table due to them being likely taller than their peers.

Repulsor will need to be rebased. It already happened with regular Marines to 32mms anyway.

Anyway, you really got not much to say besides insults, so whatever. Play some other games, learn how LOS matters and calm down.There's other games besides 40k.

>>55144944
>j-j-just play other games h-ha
Oh come on you faggot, you can do better than that. You talk a big game but you fall flat where your retardation carries the most weight lmao.

Marine bases were not changed because the model needed to occupy larger spaces for LOS reasons, since the game utilizes TLOS, not this volumetric shit you talk about. The bases were increased in size as a buff to marine units. It meant template weapons would hit less models in a squad. It meant marines could occupy more space in order to control more of the table for the same overall model investment.

Why do you keep talking about volumetric shit being of relevance, when it's not even part of the game's ruleset? It is absolutely pointless. You are pointless. Kill yourself.

>>55144942
Ive literally never even said anything like that.

>>55144712
Paint whatever you like (of course) based on lore and/or color scheme. I recommend giving a quick look at the Loyalists' lore and general tactics, although the chapters are homogeneous enough (exception: Black Templars have no psykers) you can just roll with any list.

>>55145084
I never said that Marines changed bases because of LOS. I said that they have been rebased. Meaning that there is a precedent for models getting rebased.

>Why do you keep talking about volumetric shit being of relevance, when it's not even part of the game's ruleset?
Why is wrecks being talked about when it's not part of the rule set?
I refer you back to >>55144393

The talk is about rule changes. Ofcourse that will involve talks about rules not in the game and inclusions of said rules.

New York was initially bought in parcels which were neatly organized. In fact, it was one guy doing nearly all the buying because he knew this place was going to blow up. Organizing them in squares and rectangles was the neatest way to parcel them for the sale, and very easy to define.

Boston grew organically as a colonial city, and as such has these weird shapes because of its long history of asymmetrical expansion as needed.

>>55144852

There is no confirmed or denied precedence made by marines being rebasef. You are just conjecture for based on a want you have. You dislike TLOS and want volumetric, and the bases of marines got bigger, so it MUST confirm GW's intent to switch to volumetric, right? I mean the precedent is totally there! The bases got bigger for a REASON, anon. And that REASON is VOLUMETRIC LOS REEEEEEEE

>>55145184
>I said that they have been rebased. Meaning that there is a precedent for models getting rebased.
But there is no fucking rule about it, retard. You'd REQUIRE IT, and make the base the entire way LOS works in 40K, meaning there would need to be rules for bases. Stuff like that works in games like Infinity because it's much smaller scale, you can take the extra time to determine shit like that. 40K you need "I can see you over my guy's head, so I shoot you" because anything else would bog the game down.

Fucking leave the vehicles on the table if you want in friendly games, but don't be a fucking idiot about it. People will agree with you about vehicles staying if they don't blow up, but anything else you're spouting is just idiotic to see in the thread. I'll assume you're just shitposting, but lay off.

Alpharius IS his Legion. So long as there's an Alpha Legionnaire, there is Alpharius. At least, that's what I glean off this theory.

In a sense, other Legions take boons from various Gods, make pacts with various Daemon Princes, or worship some anomaly or artefact that gives them power. In Alpharius Omegon's case, they worship him, and the tainted Chaos boons they receive are Alpharius himself, spread amongst and living within the whole of his Legion.

In that instance, Alpharius Omegon is Alpha Legion. As he was one soul in two bodies, he is now one soul amongst the whole of his gene-sons. Which would make sense in how they can organize so well, they each have a part of their Primarch within themselves which allows them to cooperate as if they were of one mind, because they are partially of a single unified soul.

WE FUCKING KNOW ITS NOT IN THE GAME. THAT'S THE WHOLE POINT. WHEN YOU SAY THAT IT WOHLD BE RETARDED IF THEY DID REMAIN BECAUSE OF HOW THEY AFFECT LOS, YOU WERE TOLD IT DOESNT FUCKING MATTER BECAUSE THEY ALREADY DO. THEN YOU START TALKING ABOUT VOLUMETRICS AND BASES AND ALL OTHER MANNER OF NONSENSICAL SHIT, AFTER BEING TOLD TO LEARN TO ARGUE.

My god this is both the funniest thing and the most depressing.

>>55145372
I'm not sure what the AM codex will do about Knights, they were vague when people asked if it was a combined codex

>>55145327
>You'd REQUIRE IT,
that can be done.
plenty of games have base size as part of model's stat. Why are you operating on the assumption that rules can't make that happen?

If you want to talk about time saved, I guarantee that measuring distance and knowing predetermined height is much easier than bending down at everything and having to go back and forth.

>>55145383
Start with the metal, then the cloth, then the details, then my ass.

>>55145392
They're probably going to include a couple of basic variants in the codex that barely change shit from the index aside from tinkering with the points a little, and then they'll release a fullblown Imperial Knights codex with all manner of broken shit, that will let kids use their existing knight model but encourage (force) them to butl new ones! Yay capitalism!

>>55145387
Hey man, I'm not the one typing in all caps like it means anything. You do you.

apparently anything vs. orks is classic.

>>55145453
Probably.

Knights and other big models no longer carry the cancer stigma. I mean there would be bitching because we don't even have all codex releases, but Knight codex getting another box wouldn't really shouldn't piss anyone off right now.

>>55145453
Ask Forgeworld.
Although, they're probably too busy with HH stuff.

>>55145453

Are there any models for R&H that don't fit neatly into guard/imperial soup?

>>55145403
Then you remove from the game a lot of tactical nuance since if everything is predetermined and readily measurable then there can be no exploration of the mechanics, which in this case is maneuvering and model positioning.

You're just a faggot because you think by spouting shit about volumetric LOS it makes you seem clever and you imply that you're adding depth when you're doing the opposite. And the whole reason is that you lack comprehension beyond the immediate mechanic you want to shoehorn into the game. Bending down and checking for LOS is a fundamental part of the game. Why do you want it removed so bad? Try to put that brain of yours to work and explain for us what the changes will accomplish. How and why will they improve the game?

>>55143693

They've made mention. Might include a few pest species like Ambull in Necromunda, and perhaps a select few as Dogs of War. Still, most of these rumors are coming from BoLS's speculation on the matter and translation of the leaked WD text.
