How does one come up with good fluff for their own army?

Read as much as possible about them. Pick the one thing they hardly do. Make this the character choice of your army.
Remember: You are special, fuck the rest.

I want skitarii that go around the galaxy picking fights in a privateer fashion to learn. Is this too far?

Remember the Yncarne is not Ynnead. It's only an Avatar. And Ynnead is a weakened god since the Eldrad was disrupted in Death Masques. A successful awakening of Ynnead in full power would have roiled the warp across the galaxy and quenched the Astronomicon.

>rogue trader skitarii
YEs please, sounds good now flesh it out.


Also, rate my list
Feedback would be nice

Nth for AdMech beep boop.

What are some required 40k novels a good tech-adept should read to really have some robot fun?

Now with 80% less space wasted

That's basically what an Adeptus Mechanicus Explorator Fleet does. It's an established part of the fluff.

Help me make this work.

Any suggestions on what to change/switch around?

Next general should have the original Horatio and not just another beautiful clone

can someone tell me what portion of 40k games are played without a turn limit?

Still doesn't change that much. The Yncarne isn't even as dangerous as most Culexus Assassins, let alone a Primeork or some of the other Xenos of the week from the HH.

Doesn't change that Eldrad's still a weak Psyker but the Eldar's best and that Phoenix Lords are even't Chapter Master level but some people insist they're Primarch level

I guess what I'm asking is why are Primarchs pretty much bettert than everyone at everything? Seems stuish that they beat everyone at everything pretty much

>The Yncarne isn't even as dangerous as most Culexus Assassins, let alone a Primeork or some of the other Xenos of the week from the HH.

Based on what exactly?

When's the next Global tournament?

Since it cannot kill anyo e, except eldars.

I would like to see chapter master try to beat Jain Zar lol.

The way I see it, there should be something that sets your force apart, but it should not be overly different from what the faction as a whole stands for.

Last one I did up was for a Tau force I did for a Tale of 4 Gamers. I wanted a force based around desert warfare, with no heavy suits or vehicles, focusing on hit and run raids. I've got an idea in my head for my Ork force which is far, far larger, just haven't gotten around to penning it yet.

They need to gather a set of swords to awaken Ynnead now.

Also the PL's hour is in the Rhana Dandra. This isn't the Rhana Dandra so they have no purpose in the narrative. Quit bitching about them. It's like wanting Primarchs in 40K.

>it's not a killing machine so it's not dangerous

It has control over life and death and killing any of its Eldar will just result in them possibly coming back while making everyone stronger. The Ynncarne has huge potential to be fucking busted in-universe, not as a killer but as a supporter.

1 Melta, 1 Plasma, and a Demolisher cannon is probably not going to get the job done vs. armor and MCs even at low points. Sure you have a lot of bodies, but most of it is extremely non-threatening. Just piles of MEW that aren't even ObSec so It's not like you can try to hunker down on objectives,

Either turn some of your squads into cheap effective Castellan troops like MSU Melta Scions or abandon Castellan entirely.

It killed a lot of daemons and weakened the position of Slaanesh.

aaand i also want penal legion guardsmen, they will be the "Test Rats" of our force, I'll even hang corpses from the dunecrawler, for.. decorative and ballistic test purposes. Gotta see how normal men work under pressure.

Did someone called me?

>Since it cannot kill anyo e, except eldars.
Huh? Where are you getting that exactly?

Gotta love that tiny blade at the end of the TL autocannon

>It has control over life and death and killing any of its Eldar will just result in them possibly coming back while making everyone stronger.
Nope, Ynnead consumes souls, and somehow empowering Slaanesh.

never noticed that forehead on the Horatio
and now they look even more ridiculous

Well I mean she's died to random Night Lords before. And Karandas died to a Dreadnought. Other than Maugan Ra Phoenix Lords have always been pretty pathetic in-universe.

>and weakened the position of Slaanesh.
>since 6th edition fluff says that Slaanesh will be undefeatable if somehow manages to create own avatar
>in Fall of Cadia Abbadon gives Fulgrim innocent alpha+ psyker.
Destruction of Biel-Tan.

Ynnead gonna bitchslap his whore sis in her place, and then they gonna fuck all the lesser races.

Well nope, he already have one big problem.

You have the book?

If they ever combine the AdMech into one actual codex I'd love for them to do sub-armies like the AdMech has in 30k. Except instead of the Legio Cybernetica they could have Explorator armies or something. Though I guess the current Skitarii codex is basically that.

That's bullshit, user. Source and quote.

>It's like wanting Primarchs in 40K
Y-yeah that would not happen

And this WD months says that the Ynnari inflicted heavy losses on Slaanesh and due to his weakened position the other Chaos Gods the turning on Slaanesh. Using Slaanesh's current weakness to sit him up for a fall.

WD, somehow Ynnead and Ynnari actions empowering Slaanesh presence in real space.

Well, only vehicles anyone uses over here is 1 Dreadnout, 2 Drop Pods and a Necron Ark so I figured I might get away with it. See where you're coming from, though. Gonna see how I could otherwise maybe get a working kinda-fluffy Templars list going.

That's not what the WD says.

Quote, user. Gimme a screenshot or picture.

Are you one of those people who were saying "Ynenad is corrupted because he is pink" or that "Belisarius blew Cadia by messing with pylon" before the books came out?

Cawl didn't blow the pylons you fucking idiot, Abby crashed his space station in to.

Bullshit

Can you fucking read?

user, please learn to read.

Triggered.

I just reread all the FoB sections in my copy of WD. It says nothing of the sort.

We'll see. In-universe I don't know many times a 'support' being gains the advantage over someone who can punch harder.

Fuck off, retards.

Maybe if you actually read the book instead of regurgitating memes you would know how fucking misinformed you are
>Le armless warnaster xDDD

user, if you're not trolling, you are one of the dumbest motherfuckers on this site. Holy shit.

They aren't saying Cawl blew up Cadia you idiot.

Let me guess, the next posts, you start posting bullshit like "it's just average tuesday in 40k"?

I read in a GW article (maybe on the blog) that special characters need to be exceptions and paragon's. This might apply to your own fluff for your army. They should be paragon's if that army style but also have a unique exception

What are you even talking about?

>tfw really want to make a huge set of interchangeable trench pieces

About GW-defenders, they will say anything to push new products forward.

Remove Ynnead

Get the fuck out, user, holy shit.

Can't wait for a Great Crusade 2!

Xenos should be our servants or be dead.

Make me, fanatic.

What does that have to do with calling out completely uniformed misinformation about fluff? GW does enough pants on head retarded stuff all the time without you needed to make up bullshit.

Are you the guy who keeps whining incessantly about Eldar not winning or something?

You could stay if you didn't shit up the thread with mad ramblings in barely legible english.

so i just bought my first 40k models in a decade. 10 ork boyz and 5 nobz.

why do i do this to my self. i was almost a normie.

You shouldn't have started.

Orks are so shit,they have their own tier in the power rankings.

>Are you the guy who keeps whining incessantly about Eldar not winning or something?
Nope, why should I care not-existed faction.

Go and stay go.

Could I reasonably make a guard regiment whose entire purpose is to hunt fallen marines?

I'm sorry user. I hope 8th ed. will be kinder to Orks. By the way consider purchasing the "Trukk Boyz" and "Start Collecting" boxes if you want more Orks. They're much better deals then buying the boxes separately.

Convert the nobs to be squad leaders, they look much better and nob squad nobs are shit.

But user its not exactly what some of the eldar players wanted so playing eldar is still suffering.

Eldar players, they have an army that will allow them to do anything in 40k including bitch about being shafted.

Why should I care about the whining a of a non existent aeldari player.

You cannot make me leave, facist.

Rate my list. Name of List should be Templar + Skitarii but whatever.

>Nope
Fair enough. Still my point remains, you seem to have some major misconceptions about the fluff.

>old warhammer minis were out of metal
>bulky, hard
>could withstand beeing handled by men
>new warhammer minis are packed with fiddly extensions like feathers and shit
>soft plastic
>can't touch, let alone transport the new centerpiece models without breaking them

when will they stop to design for girlish hands

any gaps in list, unnecessary redundancies, etc.?

Make your stand on Veeky Forums, user.

Ally in an Inquisitor and you're set.

Aside from that? Could work in a major battlezone, where Traitor Marines are encountered more commonly. Like a specialist force to go after them.

Greyfax seems a bit obsolete.

Also, what's that point limit?

The cheese get's cheesier, the neglected stay neglected, true for all armies, and eldar as well.

Watch out, he'll think you're telling him to stand on his computer.

Why would you take transuranic arquebus on the dominus maniple? You can only twinlink units within 18 inches so that kinda defeats the point of taking a sniper rifle with a 60" range. Also split up the vanguards into smaller squads to force your opponent to either split their fire or risk wasting fire overkilling single squads.

I chose greyfax for her psychic abilities; I thought denying the enemy overwatch would be a powerful tool when playing templars.

In regards to points I wasn't really thinking about that, the list is more so representative of a general strategy than a finely tuned list. Assume I would be playing at 2,000.

Best fortification for orks? Im thinking a skyshield to park lootaz and mek guns on.

Thanks for the advice, I will implement it.

Dude a Chapter Master could easily kill Jain Zar. Phoenix Lords can't even beat Dreadnoughts

i doubt it matters in a very causal setting.

ok thanks. the start collecting box looks pretty nice.

that was the plan. the old nobz in the boy set are just terrible. the regular boyz look great though.

orks got so many units i dont remember at all. what the fuck is a gorkanaut?

>Ork beard

TELL ME MORE.

>gorkanaut
mini-stompa

...

I want to buy Nids. Best way to start on them? Is Start Collecting good, what about Armoured Assault?

Hair-squigs

If i wanted to make a fan codex or dataslate, is there a template? or would I have to make mine own?

Why would you ever do such a horrible thing

Revised roster. Any unnecessary redundancies, gaps in list, etc,? Point limit is 2250.

Slaanesh is angry at/scared of Ynnead and so sends a lot of Daemons at the Ynnari. It says nothing about "empowering Slaanesh presence in real space.".

That doesn't say anything like what you're claiming.

I seriously wish the other factions could get characters as strong as Primarchs. Seems totally biased for everyone else to be shafted

This because Im retarded and posted in the wrong thread
