What should I add or remove, anons? I'm liking the list so far. Once I think it's complete, I'll start buying, building, and painting them up as my first army!

Anybody got any cool Rogue Trader Space Marine paint schemes?
Like yellow and black tiger stripes, that kind of thing.
Eli Brown
I remember a picture of a painted marine captain who was white with red stripes. I could have sworn I saved that image but it's gotten away from me.
Grayson Campbell
can we all agree that Dark Angels players are, as a whole, the most largely moronic player base of any faction? Is it the Dark Vengeance thing or just too many new players?
Juan Martinez
>Arvus beat filthy xenos faglord to first
Glorius cute
Lucas James
As shitty as they are I still want one. Too bad even recast prices aren't worth it.
Andrew Young
the stubby wings make it look cute

They're not too bad in Solar Auxilia lists.

More Imperial Agent leaks?
Anyone?

Get a load of this entitled poorfag.
Joshua Harris
I didn't imagine the Arvus would be so beloved. Are its stubby wings really that cute?
Although I want one, too, even if it is just table decoration.

Jaxson Fisher
At what point value is it okay to start using detachments? I'm getting my GSC up and running and I'm really excited to use all the cool detachments and stuff, but my group is pretty casual and I don't want to be destroying them at low point values. It seems like it's not even possible to do the Uprising detachment at anything lower than around 750 points.
Also, I'm not totally clear, but it seems like I can do a GSC detachment without having a warlord, since you don't need to bring an HQ. Is that correct?
Juan Hall
Ah, whoops! Still, S6 is a good strength, and can glance/pen AV12/AV10-11. Rending lets it do even more, and buffs it as well. Razorbacks and non-standard Land Raiders being able to take them Twin Linked is a nice bonus.
Hmmm, let me think, if you removed Foe-Smiter with a regular Storm Bolter, got rid of the Deathwind Launcher, and the Extra Armor on your Ven Dread you could probably afford another dread in a pod, or some other unit, like some Preds or something.
A shame you aren't running MSU. TL Assault Cannon Razorbacks just look so great.
Anyways, if you want to shave some points down even then, see if you can replace the plasma cannon with an Assault cannon. Iirc, the Assault cannon is cheaper, though the Plasma Cannon is better for hordes, I think the Assault Cannon is better simply because it lacks Gets Hot, and therefore doesn't ruin it's chance to fire.
Then again, I just like miniguns and other guns that have that distinctive look/style.

Automatically re-group, cannot be swept, immune to fear.

get a load of this assault cannon shill who doesn't even know the statline of the gun that he is literally fellating with his posts
Noah Bell
rhino rush was a fair and balance tactic
Easton Allen
Need inspiration for kitbashes and conversions. Show me your dank ass conversions. Bonus points if they're made from toys.
Kevin Jenkins
It's like it was made for a style of gameplay that doesn't exist, some kind of civilian escape scenario and that is pretty cool.
Jose Diaz
All orks get feel no pain.
Change mob rule to the old mob rule(fearless if over ten models in a unit,)
Boss pole lets you refill failed LD
Up everones initative by one, and give them the old furious charge rule(+1 str AND +1 initative on charge)
Point adjustment on the nauts and stompa
There, we now have a solid book.
William James
Fish of Fury took skill and finesse
Brody Evans
Why do people like AdMech? They are the lamest army in the game, every single model looks exactly the same.
Joseph Barnes
>Kill Team uses it as an improvised escape vehicle in a Zone Mortalis boarding/infiltration mission
Tyler Evans
Hey man, I just like the color scheme and fluff of the Angels of Absolution.
I just would prefer to run a fluffy list over a more WAAC-y one. It's not fun if one of us keeps winning/losing all the time, nor is it fun if user brings all his cheese in a single game.
user, you love Assault Cannons too much. I think they're cool too, but I'm going to keep the plasma cannon termi, though. I like it too much. Might go for a second dread though, but I don't know. Will need to look over everything and see what's available. Maybe some Black Knights.
Oliver Ward
no, dark angles were bad before DV
James Roberts
t. butt blasted Fenrisian savage.
Ayden Myers
user, I bet you just wish that the Assault Cannon was S7. That would be great.
Imagine, a S7 AP4 Heavy 4 Rending weapon.
Aw yeah. Popping vehicles and everything else in it's way.
Zachary Baker
youve done it
Eli Peterson
hq =/= warlord. you can make anything a warlord but only characters get the warlord trait. most tend to make the warlord an hq because the're usually more powerful or tougher then basic troops
here's most of my daemons setting up to fight blood angels at 3k i believe

Is it okay to use rules for a chaos legion if you're army is a custom chaos warband?

Eli King
I don't see why not.
Wyatt Davis
Glorious.
Give that man a baneblade! Failing that, an army of Leman Russes!
Christopher Price
Legions are often made up of different warbands. They aren't entirely uniform. I mean it's fucking CHAOS.
Chase Lewis
sir we've just received a report, the scheduled tau army refuses to land to oppose the baneblade, they're leaving the system
we've won but feel hollow inside, their departing message was "fuck off WAAC faggot I don't come to play against super heavies outside of apocalypse if I see you again I'll shove that baneblade up yer arse sideways"
Elijah Anderson
>people calling other anons armies shit Post your army, then.
Parker Moore
Yeah of course.
If you want an in-universe explanation just say they're a splinter from the legion. 90% of the current renegades are probably descended from the original 9.
Chaos Lord still needs to be fleshed out. Talisman of Burning Blood? Axe of Blind Fury? Can only take one, right?
Luke Williams
>Is it okay to use rules for a Space Marine Chapter Tactics if your army is a custom chapter of Space Marines
Yes
Blake Sullivan
Draigowing was an amazing feat of tactical ability
my army has a lot of metal, kinda old at this point, and at one point i was setting up to play whfb with my daemons. notice the 2 keepers that are metal and oop by at least a decade
as for the bases it's road markings. the exalted chariots are about the size of a land raider. i was gonna do cobblestone but the greenstuff didn't hold well
Any suggestions to change this list and what should I look to change as I move to 1000 point games?
Brayden Myers
Well, the Word Bearers are still a legion. The Iron Warriors are mostly a legion. Angron keeps trying to gather all the World Eaters and form them into a legion. He's getting really mad since he keeps finding more everywhere.
Hudson Lewis
>road markings
have you honestly ever seen a road?
that looks like you tried to paint with mac and cheese sauce
Ryan Jackson
No anti-air?
Dylan Butler
Cool was going to make them traitor blood ravens from end of dawn of war 2 retribution that fled when loyalists won.
Joshua Flores
>STILL doesn't post his large, well painted army
Connor Hill
sticks and stones may break my army but meet me offline for a game at 1501. also mac and cheese is delicious so thank you for the compliment
Easton Flores
I'll take it your using Thousand Sons?
Pretty good, they've come full circle.
Gavin Howard
Seperate units now one formation with acolyte tax brings them together
Josiah Morales
Why would anybody not like AdMech? They are the coolest army in the game, every single model is gorgeous.
Easton Cooper
I agree.
Brandon Walker
Don't think that'd work, though it'd be funny. The ones from DOW2 were pretty Khornate.
Parker Nelson
Yeah I dunno if I want to use the thousand son's rules though
David Miller
I find them creepy. Creepier than chaos.
Jose Miller
Meant to reply to
Cameron Nelson
I don't got them myself but they are gorgeous models
Adrian Jackson
Man, I really wish I saved it, but an user in the /wip/ thread painted his 30th anniversary Imperial Space Marine like the Space Marine police scheme, complete with the line of hazard striping on the beak.
Also check out the Salamanders old scheme.
Leo Scott
Space Phyrexians
All glory to the Ineffable One
Connor Parker
True but there obsession for relics and the prominence of psykers implies they're descended from TS gene seed.
Isaiah Hill
Their*, Jesus I need to go to bed.
Evan Baker
Are the fw blight drones any fun to play? They look like the kind of thing Id want three of.
Cameron Martinez
how is the warp hunter? on a scale of guardians to wraithknight how does it rate?
Alexander Young
>World Eaters >Templars
when did 40k general get so MANLY?
Angel Evans
>lasplas
Doesn't really work anymore. If you're going to bother taking a heavy weapon, take a gravcannon so you can move and shoot at full BS.
You'll need transports. Rhinos and Drop Pods, Land Raiders depending on how hardcore you think your meta is; if it's too strong your LRs will just get toasted early game.
Benjamin Collins
Using this colour scheme to work from what what colour should the metal be? Silver gold or bronze?
Matthew Adams
I've seen all that, I mean the datasheets.
Angel Wood
silver
Blake Harris
I think the cherry red glaze that FW paints their pre-Heresy TS with would be cool. I know it's a cunt to paint though.
Nicholas Anderson
My old 'nid army, who have been sadly left untouched for many years.
Robert White
Made a list to give me a project to get off my ass and actually have an army to play with
Wanted something to focus on using bikes
Planning bikers and rhino squads take offense with devastators provide support
I was thinking maybe adding some Furioso dreads to cause chaos behind enemy lines
Jackson Reed
I still only own one. Haven't used the poor guy in a while, but I should dig him out. I recall enjoying it in the games I played.
John Mitchell
So after Fenris will we finally have "13th Black Crusade" event?
Luis Stewart
Thanks for all the help in the previous thread, truly you are all doing the Emperor's work. I just want some final opinions before I start making purchases.
Christian Perry
It's like a more mobile, longer ranged but less reliable and less durable Vaul's Wrath D-battery with a D-scythe up its sleeve for emergencies and-or toasting covercampers nicely. I like them a lot.
Also Guardians aren't shit.
Hudson Cooper
Just remember that without relentless those devastators do very little on the turn they arrive.
Henry Hill
You could even have a weird inner circle that worships the Thousand Sons and thinks Magnus did nothing wrong...
Oliver Cook
>Lets take the basic unit Orks have had >That they have always had >Which was doing fine, but really got hurt by the latest Mob rule change >And give it free FnP >And some initiative >And more initiative on the charge >And revert the Mob rule to previously really good version after all that >And call it balanced Jesus, do you work for Blizzard? You could balance their games to Tee.
Give bosspoles +1 Ld. Make them fearless if within 6" of another unit with Mob Rule. Let them take a Nob per 10 models. And it wouldn't hurt for Trukks to be able to deliver them safely again. They'll be as good as they were, require just a little bit more thought (or just more bodies to let you link the whole army), and can frontload on Klaws to really pile on the hurt.
Anthony Richardson
You bet your sweet ass we're getting there. End Times 40k and straight on into Age of Emperor.
Chase Stewart
Here is my updated list of changes to make orks killy again. I will be sending this to GW. Thanks to everyone who provided constructive feedback.
ORKS
1. All dakka weapons now have their rate-of-fire increased by 1.
2. All orks now have Feel No Pain 6+. This can be improved with Wargear and Painboyz up to a maximum of 4+.
3. Boyz are now I3, Nobz are now I4, and Warbosses are now I5.
4. A successful ork charge grants +1 Strength and +1 Initiative during the first round of combat.
5. Bosspoles now allow a reroll for all morale and leadership tests.
6. Characters now have access to non-Mega Armour wargear that grants a 4+ invulnerable save.
Julian Perez
What kind of list would one run for an IG army based on Imperial Japan? Catachans?
Leo Moore
Does Dante scrape and lick to get his blood?
Owen Perry
But user magnus did nothing wrong Im thinking of giving a lord some feathered wings and making them like a raven's as well
Aiden Ramirez
actually i'm slowly building a guardian warhost, it's just hard to rate the eldar stuff since everything is powerful. i really like the idea of some bakers doing weekend war missions
Benjamin Powell
I have one. Its basically a flying battle cannon which is pretty cool, and you get to make vomit jokes because its weapon is literally puke. The model is also disgustingly beautiful.
Aaron Martinez
Who's the Priest shack up with? Can't fit in a rhino, can't keep up with bikes. Is he there to give a 60 point FnP to your devastators?
Caleb Bailey
Point
Any changes I could make?
Hudson Williams
Probably.
It would be infantry heavy with lots of heavy weapon teams.
Commissars for fearless.
Maybe some light tanks like the Hellhound variants.
Grayson Morales
I'd say skyhammer but BA can't take it
Christopher Bennett
Are Bolt Action models the right scale? I'm sure they have some good bits to work with for kitbashing if they are.
Mason Sanchez
I would need to read up more on Imperial Japan's war doctrine. I assume IG has enough toys to fit whatever the preferred tactics and combat doctrine were.
