THIS THREAD HAS BEEND FORTIFIED!

is Coteaz still top tier cheese on most tourneys as an ally?

Not really. Only 2+ armor, no invuln, ML 2 psyker for 100 points. Meh overall.

Well if the local meta is "All the drop pods all the time" then yeah. But if that's what you are running up against then anything up to and including using your regulation hammer is acceptable.

It's like the tau is having vietnam-style flashbacks to that time they went to the chicken planet.

Just got snipped out of 2 metal powerfist comissars for $6 on ebay in the last 10 seconds. Tell me a joke to lift my spirits Veeky Forums

The Ork codex.

I'm dying here.

6e Tyranids.

My last game I played

An old asian man goes to the doctor. after his checkup, the doctor says he has cataracts, to which the old man replies, 'no cataracts, i drive a rinkin'

What did the user say to the other user? It was me.

Oops, missed the new thread while double checking to make sure I'm not retarded. Where can I find this Inquisitor? It's not a GW or FW sculpt as far as I can tell, but it doesn't make sense to use it to show scale if it's a custom one-off.

tallarn vs slannesh

who wins?

How would you make a list against a 1000p Tau list that only has drones. No tanks, no fire warrios, no suits, just drones of every flavour

The rules are e-book only.

The Ultramarines

1) Lack of identity.

CSM aren't meant to be direct analogues of SM; Cool. Except their equipment and units are way too close to SM with all the nice shiny toys gone. CSM can only have 2 special weapons for some reason, Havocs can only have four heavy weapons, because reasons. All of their equipment is identical to loyalist stuff except for the Reaper Autocannon, but they don't get grav, or teleport homers, or drop pods, or w/e: All the good bits of loyalist equipment. What's more, none of the Chaos-specific stuff is terribly good. Each type of daemon engine has some pretty glaring problems; Possessed are no different than assault marines that traded their grenades and jump packs for a daemon save and S5, Land Raiders are the shittiest varient, etc.

2) Lack of special rules making them boring. Chaos' sole special rule is Champions of Chaos, a rule that is, at best, fluffy but doesn't ever effect the game because nothing ever gets something useful out of a challenge. Marks are a poor replacement for chapter tactics to begin with (Like half the legions aren't god-specific), and stat-line changes are boring. That's ignoring the fact that like two and a half of the marks are garbage, as are two of the icons. VOTLW is neat, but it shouldn't be an upgrade, and doesn't exactly represent veteran CSM the way it's supposed to since it's most expensive for the guys who should, logically, be more likely to be veterans.

((Inb4 someone posts the stupid 'CSM should have chapter master statlines' meme))

3) Points inefficiencies, and inability to get redundancies. Lots of shit in the codex is a lot more expensive than it should be, the codex has real problems with hitting all the bases you need a list to it. Fast assault troops? Objective grabbers? Really only found in fast attack. AP2? Heavy Support or super-expensive chosen.

4. Garbage formations. This one should be self explanatory.

Are you ? That's a dark angel librarian from the dark vengeance set.

>in the last 10 seconds

you were asking for it

This is good

Meltagun

Godspeed you! Black Avatar

Meltagun

There's having a bad day, and then there's getting headshotted with a melta weapon.

I modeled some regular Marine bikes yesterday and now I want to put EVERYTHING on bikes.

Help.

Five bean casserole

>Imperial knight using bikes as roller skates
I'm okay with this.

are there any female units in the game?

Yes.
You can be either female or male eldar.

...

Just shave off the Dark Angels symbol with a knife and he'd make a pretty good terminator inquisitor.

Allah and the ahkbars

Dark Reapers can dispense some good "fuck you" too.

>Unlimited interceptor with no drawbacks
>Can OHKO any Psyker/Daemon
>"lol fuck off with your seize roll"

I once killed ~750pts of battle suits with Coteaz in a IG veteran squad because my opponent deep-struck in Hammer and Anvil. Poor bastard forgot about the rule and thought it was just standard interceptor.

...

Wait, what's the order of operations there? Can you let him place all of his Deep Strikes while snickering quietly to yourself and then stomp him or are you supposed to shoot each one in turn?

>Can OHKO any Psyker
One perils isn't really all that bad...

How do I stop this? It's getting to the point where I don't want to play with him anymore because all he does is bitch.

Tell me about your dudes Veeky Forums. Who are they? What is their name? What have they done? What are their achievements and accomplishments, as well as their backstory?
alternatively, if you haven't got around to naming and fluffing your dudes, post about their achievements in past games and perhaps we can help fluff them out. God knows it would a better use of space and time than a great portion of last general

idk. I've lost to orks twice. Granted I've only played four games and lost 3....

It's done at the end of movement, so the former.

>How do I stop this? It's getting to the point where I don't want to play with him anymore because all he does is bitch
Remind him that you told him from the start that orks are shit, and as such he really shouldn't complain. He knew the risks. You might want to try and convince him to start a second army that he could use as his main one instead of orks (though that would depend upon financial situations, not everyone has the money to have more than one army, and very few can start a new one and begin with a large force), allowing him to relegate his orks to something played only in fluffy and for fun games

Buy him better units.
What's he got?

It's a leadership check. The model is simply removed on a fail.

Now that you mention it....

I can guarantee whatever he lists wont have enough boyz

How would you stat these things?

Eh, I prefer the way Space Marine made meltaguns be llike anti-tank shotguns

The Surian Desert Dogs. Formed out of a Tallarn regiment that was merged with a local PDF force, they're experts in lightning mechanised strikes, guerrilla warfare, and desert survival.

They've been fighting a guerrilla war against an Alpha Legion-backed cult, and were expecting to be reinforced by the Ultramarines, but the Ultramarines took the view that they've been hiding on a chaos infested planet for far too long to be uncorrupt. Now they're fighting for survival against both the chaos and Ultramarine forces.

Necron players, I keep seeing these itty bitty Scarabs about, not the ones that come with the Warriors but these little tiny ones, where are they from?

They were completely unfluffy in Space Marine.

is this... ps2 game?

How? A rapid explosion of super-hot gasses was basically what they were.

They also were subject to a horrible defeat at the hands of an Eldar Farseer and his jet bike swarm

Going all out and buying 2 units of 3 wyverns because a Stalins organ style guard army sounds great at 2.5k. My necron playing friend is telling me they'll only do 2 wounds against his immortals (all 6 firing). I'm not good at math hammer at all but this seems out by a very wide margin. Could someone confirm my suspicions and maybe give me some correct calculations?

I play Storm Wardens because I like their color scheme and I'm not creative enough to come up with my own (I like to write but color is my weakness).

I want to make my own color scheme eventually but I quite like blue and silver.

Clearly you haven't played a PS 2 game in a while, seeing how PS 2 couldn't hope to render that sort of graphics.

Because they were fucking shotguns. Meltas have always been described as beams of heat, not god damn shotguns.

the tesseract vault has a bunch of tiny scarabs, I'm pretty sure

ah ok, cool

>Going all out and buying 2 units of 3 wyverns because a Stalins organ style guard army sounds great

Then take off your little girl skirt and put on MAN PANTS! 6 DEATHSTRIKES, ALL FIRING, NOWHERE TO RUN, NOWHERE TO HIDE! FROM THE EMPEROR'S STRAIGHT INTO THE ENEMY'S LOINS!

That or 6 Manticore batteries for S9 AP2 7'' blasts. Fuck the enemy with your giant dick missiles instead of your silly micro size mortars.

If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

Shotguns in game role, maybe. They didn't exactly have any spread the same way a shotgun usually does. Short range insta-kill guns is basically Exactly how melta should behave.

I dont know, I could see a raygun acting fast enough that it looks like a shotgun instead of just aiming and waiting for the ray to do the work.

You guys know eBay has an auto bid feature right?

Sniping is useless unless you use a program to get in at the last millisecond.

Niiice! Kinda reminds me of my regiment that's formed from local PDF and a cadian regiment that was at about quarter strength. Sadly don't have much lore yet since I just started recently and haven't gotten any games in.

What if CSM got the Gal Vorbak statline?

What's everyone working on?

The quality of the painting some people in here display on their models fucking blows my mind.
Some of you guys are gods

You aint seen shit, m8.

Stip making me want to play/buy Tyranids. Stop.

HOW

Common, imagine 4 of these faggots flying around fucking shit up and pissing off everyone you'll ever play.

>Only 4 people have posted their models so far
>mine is one of them
>mfw

This shit should come with a trigger warning.

Holy shit is that thing pregnant?

Something wrong?

Its a Tervigon, so yes.

looks highlighted with a micro pen.

Did you make this? If so, how?

>Is something wrong?
Yeah I'm having an existential crisis just looking at thing, I can't tell if it's a 3d model or a 2d binder sketch.

>What's everyone working on

tyranids literally have the best plastic range in the game

they're garbage on the table, but the models are fantastic

I'm making a grey knight captain and librarian out of a grey knight termie kit.

I fell for the shitty resin one on their website so I also have to get rid of that somehow.

I wish, an user here posted the Tervigon picture a while ago and said he found it elsewhere even longer ago.

Search Cell Shaded Tyranids on Google.

Oh I know what you mean. Its the white background that does it.

Hey, I used to play to Warhammer 40k back in 2008-2010. I stopped around 2010 but I'm thinking about playing again since I'll have some free times next years. What has changed since 2010 ?

New edition, some new codices, Tau and Eldar are now top tier. A new CEO was named at GW and we're all hoping he can do something, anything to unfuck this game.

Good units m8.

That shit looks fine user. got any more?

Based Roundtree is trying to fix things. He even brought back the specialist games division, and I'm pretty sure is the one who gave the OK for the Start Collecting bundles that actually offer good deals.

Are Tau top tier because of cheese though?

Yes.

>New edition
Anything new in the rules ? (If I remember correctly, I was playing during the 5th edition)
