First for VULKAN LIVES!

Post shots from your latest game!

Second for Tiamet

Hey Veeky Forums, what's your favorite Ordo?

How many survivors?

WE WUZ SPACE MAHREENZ N SHIEET

poor little Stealth suits. Getting assaulted by those Alpha Legion Marines.

Fly, you fools!

...

Hereticus

Chrome tau? I might try this.

Who was in the wrong here?

Xenos is pretty cool with their bad as spec ops marines. My opinion cooler than mallus' psychic marines.
Xenos > Heretics > Malleus

Xenos for lots of reasons, but mostly due to having more relatable characters like Kryptman and Eisenhorn (especially when compared to Karamazov).

I've been wondering, does taking an icon on a marine replace the marine's weapon?

Prepare, frilly xenos, to what it's like to get your shit crushed for 2 editions straight!

>flipping through the player uploaded Ghostkeel pictures on GW website to see how people painted theirs.
>See this
>Start having flashbacks
Why would they put this shit up on their Page?

Anyone done anything with these?

>tfw me and friends just put in for a combined order of $900 worth of chinese recasts and there is NOTHING GW can do about it

is there a more smug thing to walk into gws to play with 100% knockoff figures?

Ordo Scriptorum

Quick someone post a stannis meme!

Someone should tell the farseer that the tau are near by.

Please share rise of the ynnari pdf or epub if you have it

>third party shit
>ever ever

>recasts

>day 47: they still think we're Eldar

Hey does anyone have the new Eldar book?

Yea, walk into the store with 100% knockoff figures that are actually good.

What do you mean user? All Recasts are perfect and superior to all GW products.

Atleast it is keels and not tides

Pretty obvious bait here user. You might wanna try again in a couple hours.

It looks like shit user.

Dose FW only sell Earthshakers in set of threes?

That's actually pretty cool but the vehicle looks too squat for me. If they elongated the chassis it'd look fine but with how short it is right now it looks like one of those little mini snowplows cities use for sidewalks.

Don't know, but Victoria Miniatures sells theirs in singles.

Sttep One: go onto the forge world site
Step Two: search for Earthshaker
Step Three: find your answer

Which had the better campaign: Dark Crusade or Soulstorm?
inb4 Final Liberation

Alright I just had a game with my templars and I had my shit absolutely pushed in by Genestealers, which made my assault terminators a 500 point deadweight. My LRC and crusader blob actually went surprisingly well, so I decided to make a list more based around those aspects instead of alpha strike shit.

Battalion Detachment:
Troops:
> 13 man crusader squad (10 initiates, 3 neophytes), power sword on sword brother
> 13 man crusader squad (10 initiates, 3 neophytes), power sword on sword brother
> 5 man crusader squad, lascannon and plasma gun
> 5 man crusader squad, lascannon and plasma gun
HQ:
> Chaplain
> The Emperor's Champion
Heavy Support:
> Land Raider Crusader
> Land Raider Crusader
Dedicated Transport:
> Razorback, two lascannons
> Razorback, two lascannons

It seems really fluffy at this point, but should be able to put out a decent fight with 6 lascannons and 2 land raider crusaders, not to mention the chaplain/emperors champion supported crusaders (that ride in the LRC unless they need to bubble wrap first turn).

Stop asking that every thread you mong

>Tfw FW hates money so much that all their awesome HH stuff doesn't have 40k rules

Who is it? Who is it at FW that continues to be a dumb Fuck and insist on being as clueless and retarded as possible when handling all their products?

Xenos. Deathwatch is super cool and a great story telling vehicle, and Xenos gets a wider range of more interesting foes. Just Daemons and just human cultists would get boring. Xenos get everything from the adaptable Tyranids to the brutish Orks to the elegant Aeldari to the ancient Necrons, not to mention all the minor aliens running about.

Malleus

> 34 shell casings fired before they hit the floor
> heavy 6

The guy who was in charge of porting over at least some of the mechanicus stuff has died. This may slow things down

>giving chinamen a grand on faith

Kek. Good luck.

Wasn't there another guy though that didn't want any of the special stuff like volkite weapons to show up in 40k?

>what is abstraction

That’s pure hearsay. Nobody’s ever been able to link any evidence that he was upset with volkite.

Best loadouts for hive tyrants?

Your mother for not aborting

Rending claws if you aren't taking relics

relic claws if you are taking relics

relic talons if you are taking relics and are behemoth

Could've looked cool if the front was like twice as long. Same with every other bike varient the third party makes. Aren't they the artists???

you're either a decent baiter or a big fucking retard. You might as well had gone to the Casino and bet $900 on red, then if you had won used the proceeds to buy an actual army. You might had a better chance at getting a decent army that way.

Hopefully the britbongs who can't into math are still asleep.

Can I use a stratagem on a unit embarked in a vehicle or building?

(2/2)

>low gravity
>the shells are gently placed outside the chamber when expended

Xenos

Gotta spread dat BHC through the galaxy

Wings, two devourers, MRC (or relic claws),
adrenal

Four devourers if you have enough tank-popping melee

Grammaticus.

no

Why are they called Salamanders if their chapter badge looks like a dragon?

Rate my lava bases. Did I do a good job? Do you think I ought to put a texture paint on top of the black to make it stand out a little better? Thinking astrogranite washed with carroburg maybe to simulate the glow of lava.

Why are they called Dark Angels if their chapter badge looks like a sword?

I like Hereticus and Malleus a lot. I love the detective aspect of Hereticus, but the I'm going to go balls to the wall into battle with Terminator armor aspect of Malleus. Inquisitors fighting alongside Grey Knights in crazy battles seems awesome.

that sounds like it'd make them look better. as they are know, the color looks a little...flat I guess. not really sure what the actual term is, but giving it a layer of something to make the lava pop would probably make them look a lot better. even still, that as it is is still very well done

I had an idea for a repentant warband of csm who seek to redeem themselves in the eyes of the emperor through glorious martyrdom

Does that sound cool? Have any ideas to expand the fluff?

Why are they called Blood Angels if their chapter icon looks like a blood drop with win... oh wait, never mind.

A salamander is a fantasy lizard that breathes fire.

I don't think there are any examples of chaos marines redeeming themselves in the lore.

The closest we have are chapters that found themselves on the losing side of a conflict and seek penance.

Is the Stormtalon any good this edtion? Seems like a flying predator except t6

But anything thats going to shoot at it is gonna wound it on 3's anyways

Oh yeah I didn’t mean to say they actually found any redemption just that they pretty actively seek it

>All these plebs saying Ordo Majoris

I am an Ordo Chronos man myself. Basically time cops

based off of what i've read on it's dataslate in the dex, it's a very good gunship as long as it doesn't get hit. thinking about fielding mine to test it out, but I haven't painted it yet, and it'd look out of place with the rest of my army being painted

Any Exorcist players? Do you ever see one? What rules do they use? CSM or loyalists?

anyone here put yarrick in a mono tempestus scions list.
just wondering if he was worth taking .

What is the official-fluff status of Squats w/r/t the Imperium?

Can I have a Super Heavy tank battalion made up of Squat crews, possibly as a remnants unit from other under-strength regiments?

No fagging about with head cannon.

>Liking an ordo you can't recreate on the tabletop that well

There is pic related, how I play my NL, although I don't suppose this batman is doing it for redemption in the eyes of the Emperor

I've always thought Exorcists were essentially "Better-looking, less-retarded Grey Knights"?

Not going after future time criminals

He's not bad since you can save your orders for something else other than re-rolling 1s to hit. He also adds some melee to your army which is nice. He's hard to kill.

I plan to put him in my Scion and Bullgryn list. Air Beef in Valkyries with Yarrick and Psykers, Scions dropping in, then gunboat Taurox. Might do an Inquisitor in Terminator armor and Assassins too.

>What is the official-fluff status of Squats w/r/t the Imperium?

Sanctioned Abhumans, they still exist and are part of the Imperium though their homeworld is still eaten by Tyranids. You can have your Abhuman Super-heavy regiment, it doesnt conflict with anything.

>tfw Silas Alberac model never

>Not things that are

Nifty, because those steampunk dwarf dudes they released for Fantasy look pretty fucking ace. And I'm not even a cogfopper.

The Imperium has now erupted into civil war. Several of the High Lords have rejected Guilliman's rule and have rebelled

The war sees:

*Faction 1: Senatorum Loyalists
-Imperial Guard
-Imperial Navy
-Inquisition
-Ecclesiarchy/Sisters of Battle
-Adeptus Arbites
-Officio Assassinorum
-Grey Knights, Red Hunters, Black Templars, and Deathwatch (I can't come up with an excuse for them betraying their own chapters but w/e) and lets say the Unforgiven because they're usually dicks

*Faction 2: Guilliman loyalists
-All remaining Space Marines
-Adeptus Mechanicus and its forces
-Custodes
-Sisters of Silence

Who wins?

I'd convert him from the primaris captain.

my current list is 7 10 man plasma squads 4 plasma guns 1plasma pistol each
3 tempestors each with their own relic or warlord trait
and then yarrick being out in the open escorted by 7 taurox primes with gatling guns hotshot volley guns and storm bolters
i just dont know what to do with my extra 7 pts
Fun fact i was born on the year my of my current army points

>imperial navy and guard in its entirety
Uh, take a fucking guess kiddo.

Have any of you ever actually ordered chinese minis?

Nobody wins. Faction 1 stumbles upon Faction 2 blowing each so superhumanly that it causes everyone to vomit upon seeing it. It's so intense and everyone's retching is so loud, it creates a 7th Chaos god called Big Homo.

That's probably the most boring and expensive list bits wise I've ever heard.

The novel Devastation of Baal has the Hivemind appearing as a silk thread set against the firestorm that is Chaos. Suffice to say that the Hivemind utterly blown the fuck out.

Can anyone explain how come Chaos is that powerful?

Can Yarrick order R&H around?

i got russian minis and they were ok

who is the dude in the pic?

With no forgeworld support?

You, from the future, get working on it.
