Warhammer 40k General /40kg/

Why did Big E call the reconquest of the galaxy "Great Crusade" if he hated religion and a Crusade is, by definition, a war made upon religious beliefs?

Thoughts? Too many points into melee? Bad idea altogether?

Can infiltrate the entire murdergroup due to Warlord

As well as every other unit for that matter

Does anyone have Gathering Storm companion book?

I mean, technically it was a war on religious beliefs.

S4 base and fnp for all. Also, gib fearless on mobs of 10+

you have to go ultramarines since sergeant telion is ultra

Yeah well now that you say it, technically is true.

Yeah, that's why I said unfortunately the Red Hunters don't have a Scout HQ.

Because the Emperor is retarded. The HH series has made it clear that the absolute worst fate that could befall the Imperium would be the return of the Emperor. Motherfucker consistently fucks things up, usually in ways that anyone not a drooling retard could see coming.

> I think the Red Hunters chapter tactics might work
> Ultramarines 10th Company CAD 1,000 points.
Choose one

Screw Telion and go Raven Guard / Raptors?

Or use the 10th Company formation which is 3-5 Scouts or Scout Bikes. No HQ required.

How do I get Forgeworld in with my Chaos Legions stuff? Do I have to take an additional CAD with just standard stuff in order to get any Forgeworld?

You's tinks you's a cleva git eh? I'z gonna see how cleva you iz wit me choppa in ya skull.

>gib fearless on mobs of 10+
Fucks over aspekt boyz and other elite units, not to mention that Fearless proliferation is bad.

Just make it so that Mob rule grants leadership/stat bonuses based on unit size AND/OR the number of nearby units. That way a 30 man unit of boyz gains benefits, and a small squad of tank bustas hiding in the middle of scores of other orks also gains benefits.

It's the kind of silly shit that should have been left behind long ago.

Well the Emperor is a turk after all.

Nah, what I personally want is to go IF or RH. Red Hunters because they can get a nice slew of rules, most notably Skyfure, which means AA Missiles and Multi-Meltas for free, and IF because I like IF.

Also
>might work better, but unfortunately they don't have a scout HQ
Pls lrn 2 read.

True, but ObSec means that you'd have to shoot the Scouts and/or their Land Speeders to get them off the objectives.

I'll admit it's also because Telion's a pretty nice character who also has a really good model.

Ld=7/ Number of orks within 12"

The Orks have plenty of really grim moments man, there's a whole part of one of the books in the Beast series about how they farmed humans on a planetary scale.

Fair enough. End of the day its Obj Ultramarines or Formation other chapters.

There is also another formation with Scouts and LSS where the Scouts get Obj Secured (but not the LSS). Think the other bonus is Scouts can disembark after the transports move 12"

I agree with taking a CAD because otherwise you're going to find it hard to score points with an army of scouts.

You could always ask your opponent to let you use RH rules. I don't think people are likely to be too worried about it with against an army of scouts.

>farmed humans

Farmed them for what?

>Ork diplomat Bezhrak walking into the Senatorum on Terra and smacking the High Lords with his proverbial dick

You mean this?
>‘Useless,’ Bezhrak said. ‘Worse than snotlings.’
>He looked at his fellows. ‘No reasoning with humans. Break ’em, kill ’em, eat ’em. That’s good. Don’t try to make ’em think. Can’t be done.’
>He shrugged. He turned back to the High Lords. >‘Want to die, then? Last chance.’

To hear that sort of thing coming from an Ork of all xenos is just rubbing salt in the wound.

I'm not saying Orks should have been left behind, I'm saying Orks having the linguistic capabilities of a parrot should have been left behind.

Orks can do grim and scary, but the effect is ruined when they open their mouths.

>Farmed them for what?
Skin for clothing, client races to serve as cannon fodder that's a little more effective than throwing Grots at the problem. Y'know, that sort of thing.

Mind you, this was done by 32k-era Blood-Axes, and they're a bunch of untrustworthy gits anyway.

That scene was retarded and the idea that you're the kind of subhuman scum that I share this hobby with is sickening.

Seems inefficient. Hell they make Squigs that are probably more effective than humans.

Guess its for the whole Grim/Dark rating.

The formation requires normal land speeders, so does the speartip strike.

Yeah, Stormbringer Squadron (Angels of Death pg. 60)

1-3 Land Raider Speeders
1-3 Scout Squads
Scouts have to use Land Speeder Storms at dedTrans

Scouts get ObjSec and can disembark after 12" of movement. Storms also get +1 bonus to Jink

So just go like Ultrasmurf CAD and RH Stormbringer Squadrons?

scientists, cannon fodder that's stronger than grots, food, clothing

I don't mind humor, but most people stop finding silly voices hilarious by the time they reach puberty.

woops meant

Veridyan coming back. Celestine coming back. Sisters coming back.

Or lets not be fucking retarded and just make their Nobs LD8 and Warbosses 10.

That makes more sense than just Food.

>mixing Chapter Tactics
Hello cancer, my old friend!

orks stop being orks if they lose the silly voices. It doesn't ruin anything about them. also,
>waaah stop liking things I don't like

Have we ever gotten a canon look into human life inside Necron controlled space?

That's hilarious.

Hmmm... I dunno, I think I'll just keep with the UM CAD until the day comes where there's a generic Scout HQ.

Imperium also has connotations of divinity. It's possible that GW just chose the term imperium because it's Latin, but I'm sure they were aware of the connotations.

>Fabtady grognards are still butthurt over AoS existing

Holy fuck, that's pathetic

aren't orks literally modeled off soccer hooligans

Football you cunt.

Really? The tardspeech is the only distinguishing feature of orks? No wonder GW doesn't lavish support on such a boring army.

Yes, people have opinions. Good job, gold star. Any more statements of the obvious to regale us with?

Do we have Rise of Primarch pdf?

Soccer, short for association football.

Created to distinguish it from Rugby Football, the vastly superior sport.

You can find the books in the third link under 40k supp

I believe they call that 'death'

What.

Do you think that all the old WHFB fans will just phase out of existence at some point? Smegmar wearing the rotting corpse of their old game keeps the wound fresh.

Many thanks user

most die but some lords like having living subjects

>Rugby football
Thats not a real thing

Or just talk to your opponents like a reasonable human being. It's not like Telion is a Captain anyways.

Also, the dude stated he was interested in RH for the rules anyways, so fuck off.

Raynor's Raider has added a Drop Pod to their army.

They don't really have any reason to go full purge mode now.

It's just called Rugby, but it was the other sport referred to as football when they came up with the name association football.

Suddenly, and not unexpectedly,

Well, sometimes the boyz have to ditch the voices for boring humie Gothic just to rub it in Looking at you Bezhrak, ya silly git.

Itz Grotball, ya humie gits!

Relatively new player, I've dabbled in Tau, currently considering getting into Genestealers for a faction that isn't 100% about shooting things.

1. General genestealer tips?
2. Do we know anything about genestealers and the coming of 8th ed? Is it safe to get into them now, or should I wait to see what 8th brings?
3. Friends starting with 750pt armies. I'm looking at a Cult Insurrection with Brood Cycle, Broodcoven and Cult Mutants (Aberrants), with the only extra being ML 2 on the Magus. How does that sound for a start?
4. I'm aware that the Overkill box is one of the cheapest ways to get a bunch of the important stuff. Any other tips for cheaply getting neophytes, acolytes and metamorphs? These things are obnoxiously expensive, and I can't seem to find any used on ebay (just in-box a few bucks cheaper than elsewhere).

With the overkill box and the list from part 3 above, I'm looking at: Overkill box, Iconoward, and one box each of purestrains, neophytes, acolytes and metamorphs, looking at about $320.

Feels good man.

I feel like sharing my dudes.

Tell me what you think about them. FYI it is still a work in progress and English is not my first language so please don't minds the occasional spelling/grammatical error.

Now I'm thinking of a necron lord with ad-mech slave girls talking up how much he appreciates their mechandentrite.

Now with my blessedly good imagination, I require brain bleach.

Where I can get those models? I need to trigger someone

I'm okay with this

>orkfags unironically think "I was only pretended to be retarded" is the height of good writing
Every general brings me a little bit closer to not caring that you guys are getting soft-squatted.

blue/10, would add some colours or paint the whole thing

how well does it take paint?

Tank looks absolutely terrible and bunker is mediocre, but the rest are alright.

Because BL HH is pants on head retarded.

Theres a couple of good books, and the rest is trash. What's sad is many of the problems, like the one you pointed out, could have been easily avoided.
Rather than have emps be a fedora, they should have left that vauge. He's opposed to superstition because it powers the chaos gods and at some point that led to conflict with lorgar. The Emperor wanted to build a new galaxy spanning empire founded on reason and hope, not the ignorance and fear of the age of strife.
That's all we needed to know about the Early Imperium's religious policy.

HH should have been about the major battles, seiges and exchanges and not much else. But BL doesn't seem to understand that a good books or series of books should be like a skirt: long enough to cover the topic, short enough to keep it interesting.

what bunker, that's a supply depot

How is mob rule bad? I saw a game against orks where the guy failed his leadership, rolled a dice used the "boss pole" to think his guys and they just hung out after taking armor and fnp saves. At one point it even gave them stubborn at the cost of like 2 s4 ap- hits

Would want to see one of those marines close up. Can't see enough of their details zoomed in, but they look choppy.

I want to see Games Workshop do a historical World War II game so that they have to bring out "Start Collecting! Nazis"

You valued it enough to mangle out a response with your sausage fingers.

K.

I'm sure they look pretty crappy way up close, but they're perfectly fine from table-top distance.

You sound like an insufferable cunt irl

So two questions, mostly relating to homebrew and conversions.

The first is that I'm starting up rules for Chaos 'Devastator' terminators, essentially a Terminator squad with no restrictions on heavy weapons. My plan to balance this was to cap the squad at 5 men, and also make it count as a Lord of War option in a CAD. The way I see it, you can already get 6 heavy weapon terminators in a CAD if you take 3 full squads (unlikely, I know), so that would represent a Warband taking the Heavy weapon terminators from those squads and fielding them as one. In also unsure if such a squad should have a champion with a heavy weapon.

The second question relates to the first. Essentially, I had the idea to take the missiles from the Scarab terminator kit, shift them forward to be on the edge of the armor, and use them as 'horns' for Khormate versions of these. I don't have the kit though, so I'm not sure how feasible that is.
