The Drukhari strike first! For Commorragh!

Shamelessly reasking

Anyone know if Pete mentioned anything aside from no SoBs? Like about the existing Xenos or future Primarchs?

Dumb question, but I'm new to the army: Starting a genestealer cult army and I got some models from the Deathwatch Overkill set, including what looks like an acolyte hybrid with a mining laser. I'm looking at the index, though, and I'm only seeing neophytes being able to take mining lasers. Is it supposed to be a neophyte despite having 3 arms, or am I missing something?

>>55194443
He's a neophyte, he just has an extra arm to hold the mining laser. I think it's the difference between 3rd and 4th generation hybrids or something.

Game update
Called at turn 5 due to too wide of a VP gap but Aquilla Strongpoint "Peach Garden" still stood with 24 wounds left! I only had a command squad inside and a Tempestor Prime dueling a Lictor outside but I managed to clench the win by being a turtling asshole. Narratively, the command squad (who's commander King Nigger Jew bravely left the safety of the fortress to certain soon to secure two objective cards before getting eaten by a Carnifex) managed to purge all vital Imperial records and starcharts before escaping through a secret tunnel. The Strongpoint was then collected weeks later after the planet was rewon.

I've been having a real challenge fighting bugs, anon. Gimme some info on how to fight them.

>>55194548
different anon but what army?

>>55194548
Focus fire. Monsters and swarms of gaunts are infinitely worse when depleted of wounds. Fuck Genestealers and Broodlords as hard as possible the moment you get the chance. They charge, you lose whole units.

So, how certain is the lack of new models for the upcoming admech release? Is there any source that confirms the rumour?

>>55194652
>Has range firepower been your only viable solution?
You're not going to outmelee Tyranids, anon, unless they're bringing some kind of weird list and leaving the stealers at home. Genestealers are the premiere melee unit of the entire game, that's kind of their whole point. So yes, shoot them.

>>55194438
Any transcripts of what was said? I've pretty much given up hope on plastic Sisters in my lifetime, but I want to be sure. I want to have a SoB army by the end of the year, so I'm planning my stuff out.

>>55194664
Unless you get a really good reason to believe otherwise, assume every Codex release for the rest of the year will have zero models with it. Chances are you'll be right the majority of the time.

The rumour mill pretty much confirms this.

>>55194687
Fuuucking hell.

Okay.

>>55194664
Standalone Cawl only

>>55194715
Dunno about a transcript, hence my asking

>>55194719
Alternatively, if you're packing some seriously killy melee units like Berzerkers, you can totally win IF you get the charge and hit first. But that's much easier said than done against 8"move+advance+charge stealers who can also pop out of trygon tunnels and shit.

>>55194745

Bloodreavers, blood warriors, and Kairic acolytes have been painted dark skinned by GW, what?
That was just a minute worth of searching too.

>>55194766

Learn to bubblewrap foo. Bring cultists or brimstones or something. Space them exactly 2" apart in a wide net to stop deep strikers.

>>55194783
Not that anon. I'm the original anon asking about this.

I play word bearers. I aim to screen with a large cultist unit, then assault with possessed and summoned Daemonettes.

So, since plastic sisters from gone from the "ANY DAY NOW" bin to the "NEVER EVER" dumpster, I guess I'll be seriously looking at deals on old metal sisters. Was looking at plastic proxies, but the one ones I like aren't really that big a savings. It's almost nice just how simple the old metals are... almost. So what if every multimelta I get will be the exact same fucking mini, right?

Anyway, this is the color scheme I'm going for. Need to do the details and a light wash, but any other tips?

That's where deploying and positioning smartly come into play. It's the most important skill in the game, and one of the only ones that really lets one person get a tactical edge over another outside of being better at math and luckier with dice.

>>55194813
Most blog site shit is poorly researched, or purposefully omits stuff that shits on their "argument".

I think the problem he refuses to address is, outside of named characters, no mini should represent a specific race. You can argue they make hair too straight to be black people, but a lot of guardsmen are bald or helmeted, they could easily ALL be painted black and it won't raise an eyebrow for 95% of minis. Hell, I fully intend to have a black sister of battle or two, as wigs or hair straighteners can explain anything (and it's skin variation is one of the few things to add much difference to 20 year old metal minis).

What he probably really wants, but probably doesn't know enough about the setting to express, is a named chapter/regiment that is SPECIFICALLY not white. If I say all my Space Marines are black or latino, cool, but he probably wants something like "Space Luchadors", who carry the tradition of the lucha into the 41st millenium. Or something like that.

Technically speaking 40k humans are not humans.
They are "Humans made for colonization" hence why Abhumans and other crap exist. Super adaptable humans to colonize random planets.

Outside of a wall of text in the 3rd edition rulebook there isn't much detail about it. But it is implied that humans of 40k are Stone men and the good old regular humans are Golden men now extinct

>>55195145
SJW don't care about legitimate reasons like that, they'll tell you the writers are morally obligated to retcon that and rewrite parts of the setting just to artificially incorporate "representation" because muh feelings.

ALs: obnoxious memeing faggots who squawk for help all day because they still haven't managed to memorize a paint tutorial that only has three colors: silver, clear blue, and clear green in over 3 years.

DG: Hur dur jolly Papa Nurglefags, guys who wanted the coolest sculpts, guys who wanted marching unkillable walls. Unfortunately none of these plebs realized DG's best option was Zombies in 6E/7E despite Typhus's "tax", and that Typhus and rhino horn Terminator aesthetics are the toppest tier amongst CSM.

I'm set on doing a small Dark Eldar army for an escalation campaign/painting challenge we're having. I've only ever played Nids and Guard and never even played a game against Druk's so I have no idea where to start and focus.

Pretty much this, with a few exceptions. I dunno if it's just my area but there's like 3 NL players in my rather small meta and they're all total bros, like literally dudebrahs. Think the reecius frontline guy but even more so. I'm friends with them, and they're chill as fuck

I've only ever met a few 1ks players before (and this was pre inferno new stuff so idk), but they were all pretty fun. Joked about the stereotypical memes when appropriate, but not in an annoying fashion.

Which is odd, aside from a single Khorne player all the other chaos guys I've met are total asshats. Especially nurgle and word bearers, by sheer coincidence they've all been total dicks or memelords

>>55195218
>then whine about how bad their rules are so never actually played Rubrics until Magnus came out and now just cheese him hard

I still get murderous urges every time I read or think about bandwagon bitches who claim to 'play Thousand Sons' only because of Magnus, people who only now play them because their rules got some attention ... basically anybody that didn't stick with pure 1k sons from past 3.5 until pre WoM should not be allowed anywhere near playing Thousand Sons

Nightlords: Aka Edgelords. Love Curze too much, divided into two camps: those who love camp bat-wing helmets, or modern skull-face helmets. Batman fans but act more like Leto's Joker

Iron Warriors: Bitter, nostalgiafags, still cling to 3.5, enjoy simplistic but effective paint jobs, truly hate Imp Fists and may defend dinobots and heldrakes to the death if they enjoy the 'modern' chaos look

Word Bearers: OGrognards with big model collections. they like to use all their old as fuck sculpts, probably own some Diaznettes, claim to know all the fluff, proud of their neckbeards

Alpha Legion: These dudes own a Guy Fawkes mask at home. 99% of the time they come off as cringy fuckers spouting'I am Alpharius lel XDDD' memes. semi-shit painters. The Anonymous legionfag's choice. basically /b/: the army.

Crimson Slaughter: Newfags who own a DV starter box or two. Possibly got tricked into buying all the CS shit gw released and were too stubborn to change direction, pretty cool guys

Stop using the cheesiest of cheddar

Why are flamers so shit?
9 points for shitty 8" that can hardly kill an Ork boy. Is not really worth the points. Specially when for 2 Points you can get Storm Bolter that gets 4 shots at 12" and is just as bad as a flamer in regards of killing a single Ork boy.

Anon, immolators with Heavy Flamers used to be considered fast vehicles back in the day because there was no aiming required. It's a tank with a sister on top sitting between two heavy flamers. That tank doesn't give a single fuck about anything.

Does that mean that Necrons are an OK force to break out my riptides on now that they are shit?

>>55194682
>But he literally has pics of Tallarns, whose entire shtick is being Space Middle Easterners?

And yet Middle Eastern people are not 'Caucasian' skinned, meanwhile the models of Tallarn IG are typically painted as Caucasian by GW staff members. It's like watching Hollywood try to pass off John Wayne or Charlton Heston with incredibly bad makeup jobs as being 'Arabic' or 'Middle Eastern' in old movies.

Not the worst, but all their units are mediocre at best.

that way you have the heavier hitters for hitting and the shieldy dudes for tankin. remember in 8th you choose which model gets the wounds.

BTW the shield captain should get a spear since he has more attacks and is a better shot

>tfw have custodes from BoP but really I just want more SoS and no one around has any to trade

>>55196089
You can take anything you want against Necrons, if you are playing Tau. It's pretty hard to lose against them at the moment. They got the nerfs that Tau deserved...

>>55195527
Lots of ways. The hard part is getting all the special weapons they can take. There is no kit for them.

Popular to use Dark Elf bits. I've seen a lot of people use Corsair sea dragon cloaks. They look awesome (I used my corsairs to make Incubi and a Drazhar). It's a lot of work to get the cloak onto a regular kabalite warrior body, easier to just use the whole corsair torso.

Haven't converted my trueborn yet, but I'm probably going to do something simple like a headswap. Tragedy of being a DE player is trying to amass enough special weapons to kit out trueborn and Scourges with what you actually want them to be carrying. GW seriously needs to put more in the warrior boxes.

I like the armor very much. GW's scheme IMO looks almost pastel, where this is darker and even has variation throughout like you'd see from corrosion. (it also keeps it from looking monotonous since so much is green)

I figured as much. I'm glad, because I put a bit of effort into painting that model.

Thanks, anon.

>>55196118
your bigger question is how are you going to kit out the Sisters. Because they can be useful in different ways, depending on what direction you want to take with your army.

swords are a hard hitting unit without any range. also rather fragile for melee units and kinda expensive.

flamers are good for horde control but with 8' you lack the range to do more (but you can go 7' AND advance. they hit automatically) also rather expensive

bolters might be overlooked but in an army of hardhitting expensive models (custodes) some relative cheap models with medium range might be rather useful for holding objectives and stuff.

It depends truly on where you want to go.Oh and SoS do not allow weapon mixing within a squad

>>55196193
You got it, I'll start putting a draft together

>>55196177

>Deathwatch

You are forgetting that Deathwatch can take land raiders and other shit that Necrons can't kill. Good luck with that!

Sadly I don't have enough chainsword bits to go around, so my Crusader squad initiates are going to have to have bolters, the neophytes could be bolt pistol + chainsword though..

Did your local shops do anything interesting for the final Konor mission? South Austin did an Apocalypse game, it was really cool.

Chaos won a major victory that came down to a single failed re-roll and Necrons being a big blob of I NEVER DIE!

Yea, it's kind of annoying, really. Anyway, my big concern is how you plan on distributing your drugs. You could drop one set of brides down to wyches along with 2 weapons and give them +T to act as cheaper tarpits. The squad that gets +S will also be much better off with a power sword over an Agonizer in most situations. One squad should get +1A obviously, but then the the list gets kinda meh after that. The next best is Movement, which I like to give to the succubus. You always just yolo the last one and hope for a good repeat

loyalists can only take the standard configs, not the dual weapon types.

>aside from ol Sangy what makes the blood angels cool?
The flaws add a lot of flavor.
I like how the Red Thirst adds in an aspect of innate and utter barbarity to the Blood Angel's otherwise noble and self-sacrificing nature - it presents a black to the Blood Angel's white. Speaking of black, the Black Rage on the other hand adds in an element of tragic sadness to the Blood Angels. No matter how well they serve, no matter how much they try to overcome their flaws, they will eventually fall to their anger and sadness and be overcome by the rage of The Angel. This is even more tragic of an end considering that Blood Angels are otherwise the longest lived of all Space Marines, leaving them with little chance of dying a natural death (or as natural of a death as an Astartes can hope for). Falling to the Black Rage is nigh certain if you are not killed before it happens.

The Blood Angels, in my opinion, are a chapter of tragedy.
They want to self sacrifice for the good of humanity, but in the end they all-but-inevitably wind up hurting those they would care most due to the flaws that make them who they. They want to become something that they cannot be without losing who they are. Even worse, they can't seem to overcome their flaws (aside from, what, two people in a 10 thousand year history) either. The Flesh Tearers, who chose to fully embrace their genetic flaws, are slowly being eradicated by the very flaws that make them who they are. The Lamenters, who chose to abandon their heritage entirely in an attempt to leave their flaws behind, saw an almost karmic punishment dealt to them for abandoning their lineage and themselves.

Being a Blood Angels is suffering and choosing to become one is to sell your soul to the devil to serve the Lord.

Honestly I could go an edition where I dont have as many rolls before I play than during a game. That being said the randomness was sometimes fun.

>>55197850
This. I'm fucking sick of daemons being LOL RAAAANNNDDDDUUUUMMMB. I hope we get a warp table where we get to choose on a 2+ and on a 1, our opponent chooses.

Meet up with a player or two who have just a whole lot of Marines and reenact The Beheading (546.M32) like historical gamers do but with made-up space fantasy scenarios. I mean, that's basically what the Horus Heresy is; historical for 40k.

They could even run their lists as the Chapters involved in the fight.

I have a couple projects on the burner right now, looking for a little inspiration.
First, I need to port my Harakoni Warhawks codex to 8th, but I'm not sure how to make the vehicles work right.
Second, I have a very small army of Grey Knights that I'm not sure how to proceed with.
Third, I have a plan for an $85 kitbash that I want input on.
Wat do?

Holy shit, Arch Warhammer is BTFO'd the shit out of that GeekDad person from the article last thread. I can't paint I'm laughing so hard.

For starters, GK libbies are trash. Minimum squad size for Paladins is 3 and Interceptors is 5. So go and make sure that you can actually field those units legally before doing anything else.

>>55197537
There are so many minor chapters that it doesn't matter, almost every color scheme has been taken. I think that every time GW introduces a new scheme, some minor chapter gets it, too. I'm sure that there's a Leviathan, Imhotek, and a Viorla chapter sitting around somewhere.

I mean, with the codex they're alright. RIP stormshield librarians though, we ALMOST had a 2++ in close combat. I am aware they're understrength, I've been running the loner as a Paladin Ancient, and I'm using the rules for understrength units. What's the best way to use GK this edition? Stand next to a captain and smite spam/storm bolter/psycannon gunline? Deep striking termies? What should I be building my army for...

>>55198059
Depends on how you like your playstyle. I've been doing massed psybolt stormbolter spam using Interceptors and Terminators and it works pretty well. Guranteed an average of 9-12 saves on MEQ if you're in rapid fire range. Also note that understrength units can only be taken in auxiliary support detachments now and I believe you are only allowed to take a maximum of 1 per list.

Librarians used to be ok because they still had the standard non-gimped Smite. For some stupid fucking reason they're now stuck with it. I guess it's good that they come with 3++ saves by default now but I feel like a Brother Captain is the better support HQ.

>>55197954
>32 minutes

Hopefully he realized majority of players don't even play as humans.
Xenos+Chaos obviously non-human. Marines also can hardly be called humans. Literally like 90 percent of players right there

*4++ saves by default sorry. I keep thinking Libbies have Iron Halos for some reason.

I really want to pick up a new army, but I can't choose between Tau and Genestealers. With Tau, I'd focus primarily on mobility and BS reduction; and with Genestealers, I'd focus on Goliaths full of Purestrains, with some Sentinels and Neophytes for good measure.

>>55198246
It shouldn't cost that much. You can save a few bucks from buying non-GW paints (I prefer Vallejo), but I can't imagine how much you're thinking you need to buy.
Black, white/grey(hair?), leadbelcher, then two colors each of green and your uniform color should be enough, with maybe another color that stands out for accents or details; then a shade to add depth and you've got a good platform to work from for less than USD$50.
