FIRST BELONG TO DA ORKZZZ!!!

Dat long fucking neck.

>aiming at a fucking huge primarch with unmistakable baroque shining armor and giant flaming sword is too hard unless he's directly in front of your face

Characters info.

>horde armies are going to be able to protect their characters efficiently
>Orks, Nids, and Guardsmen actually getting something nice
Okay but what about armies that rely on small specialist squads?

Nth for Magnusstar with over. Dozen wounds

Just think of it as all the dudes around him lining up to take the hits for him, like an automatic look out sir.

welcome to second edition bitch

It's only for certain characters with ten wounds or less. They give the example that Magnus can still be targeted anywhere because he's big as fuck

>tfw a few Psykers could rip a titan in half with a few Smites
Oh boy I can't wait to be the only Daemons player not running Tzeentch.

>Nids, Orks, and IG not BTFO by today's news

The natural order has been tampered with

Specialists work alone.

Only the tyrant guard will get to protect the hive tyrant. Gaunts are too small to do it, just fucking watch they'll do;
>Hive Tyrant will have 11 wounds
because fuck nids

One smite per turn doesn't seem scary.

3rd you could just take a leadership test to ignore target priorities.

heroic intervention looks like one of those gimmicks you don't get to use often

what do you all think?


post kino colour schemes

It's a bunch of really angry blue pauldrons shooting if your general direction. Aiming is hard.

I wonder if they'll give snipers a special rule that let's them target characters anyway.

>implying anything bigger than raveners/warriors wont have exactly 11 wounds

>Kroot Shapers are now HQ

The time of Kroot-only armies has come

What would be the point of snipers otherwise?

So what's the general consensus on 8th Ed so far?

>He thinks you'll be able to cast the same power more than once.

I know the average Grognard on Veeky Forums treats AoS like a Vampire treats garlic, but if you just glanced at the rules you'll see a lot of things to expect in 8th edition.

tl;dr: calm down autismo

I thought it just meant that HQ fight together with their armies without the need to make charge rolls for them too

Wounding on 4, rending?

NOBZ IN A NAUT

discribe your favorite independent character in 40k with "muh [blank]"
ill start
>Ahriman
>Muh Tragic downfall

Kroot uprising soon?!

>Magnus
>dint do nuffin

Lets not.

ahrimans story has been well handled, and hes had good character development.

>one smite per turn
>per psyker
Pink Horrors and Rubric Marines are going to be stronk
Tell me where it says two different psykers can't cast the same power? Because I just double checked and it looks like they implied the exact opposite.

i think it can be described as excited but nervous
i for one am mega hyped and haven't seen anything that doesn't excite me

>betraying your bonds of loyalty
We're not humans.

>a few
>implying
Titans are definitely going to be in the 100 wounds range. Assuming you can get a 10+ on every smite and always roll a 6, you're still going to have to cast it 16.666... Times.
Statistically you'll need to cast it 50.7 times, and that's assuming that titans don't have something like a 2+ save against mortal wounds, which they undoubtedly will.

I assure you user, daemonspam downing titans is nothing to worry about.

They're memeing about Sigmar because they're salty about Fantasy.

>both my juggerlord and flying prince will be impossible to target unless they're already on my oponent's face

but how?

if they don't charge they will be several inches away from a fight, probably more than the 3" of consolidation
if they charge after an infantry unit this last one may have already covered the front to come in contact with
if the charge first they will get a full overwatch

It seems very situational to me

we're what we eat

It's basically extra charge range for your characters if your other dudes made it to the fight without him.

>implying
You all are fools if you don't realize this change means sniper weapons will have a special rule allowing them to target whoever they want.
Which is both fluffy, and actually gives people a reason to feild ratlings, vindicares or sniper scouts.

Never mind, it's free counter-charge for your characters.

>we're what we eat

Wait, does that mean that if you have a GF you become a pussy ?

They have not stated as the rule exactly work, but for example it can work if the unit with the HQ is assaulted
Your opponent may not want to fight that HQ, because he's hard as fuck/is extremely strong
With that rule they can't avoid it easily, because the HQ can reach combat on his own

Unless every army has a sniper unit I don't see that happening.

Go back to plebbit

>he haven't seen krootmittens

>muh spooky scary snipers
top kek

I wonder if that also works in your own turn. Like :
>Unit charges enemy
>Character is very close but didn't charge
>Can still pile into the combat, without any overwatch coming his way.

If they're surrounded by dudes, which considering the bubble of buffs they should be, there's a good chance they'll be right behind guys getting charged at some point. That's what it's for. 3" consolidation doesn't matter when they're behind a row where you physically can't get to him. I'm not sure why you'd have a guy who's invincible unless he's the closest model to the enemy and put him standing in the front right next to your guys instead of behind them.

>he really thinks that there will be no way to counter the "you can't shoot ICs unless their closest" rule

>Durrrr step into a time machine and reveal the rules for 8th edition right now

Okay i will.


Kroot Shaman know every power of the psykers they kill in cc

BECAUSE 8TH IS KROOT EDITION

Anyone have any ideas on how to build a better looking Noise Marine out of GW parts?

>tfw Tervigons will become impossible to target
I wish they had acess to Fleshborer Hives.

No, one per turn, full stop.

Rule of one.

>strawmaning this hard to avoid looking retarded
sides orbiting jupiter right now

I'm ready for Commissars to be squad upgrades like in 5th and I'm ready for Straken to be a beast and giving out combat buffs. Gonna be 5th all over again for Guard.

Yes, snipers will have a retarded as fuck gimmick to shoot at ICs, they'll also be like a -1 AP and one shot each, which means most ICs won't give a single fuck

So they start with Smite and are barely ever actually useful?
What rule of one?

Tell me about your dudes /40kg/

If that happens I'll take it. I'll go from 4 wounds to 11, which doesn't particularly make sense considering Girlyman went from six wounds to nine.

Use forge world parts

>implying
Please user, do explain why you think sniper weapons and other forms of precision shot won't keep the only thing that makes them even marginally worth taking, especially when that benefit is actually useful now.
Go ahead, explain why you're such a tard thst you laugh at sniper weapons doing what sniper weapons already do, except now that's useful

>Kharn will now be immune to shooting unless you're already on his charge range

They're red

my dudes > your dudes

girlyman gets to hide behind scouts. Hive tyrant only gets tyrant guard.

My dudes > your dudes in certain ways, but my dudes < your dudes in others because we all have weaknesses and strengths that shine in different ways

Dudes that I don't play but will pretend to to make people mad>dogshit>>>>both your dudes

>he is still making assumptions about thing i didn't say because he's this desperate to look good on a taiwanese gift card market
top kek

They go fast, I wish they were the yellow guys but they don't go fast at all.

Kroot with sniper rifles >>>>>Fabius Bile>>>> Your dudes

>they go fast

Dude just stop trying to poison the thread with such a bullshit speculative argument

AoS rule of one. Only one can cast a specific spell per turn.

>Fabius Bile

Say goodbye to your titans :^)

The fuck is wrong with her belly

>ICs get an area effect
>commissars can boost the leadership of multiple squads at once
>mfw

Are there any girls that play 40k at your LGS? What army do they play? Are they cool?
>someone tell me what it's like to meet a girl in general

Jojo reference?

Man just stfu already

Well that's even stupider.
Two psykers know the same power.
"Quick, cast smite on the enemy."
"I can't, someone on our team already cast that power!"

I guess you've never seen a Veeky Forums girl before

>S3 wounding T5 on 3+ and being wounded by S5 on 3+
>5+ saves will actually be taken against small arms now
>IG officers will inevitably keep their command squads

AGE OF IG

Yesssddd

I think commissars will squad upgrades and commissar lords will be characters.

Why insta death isn't a thing and moral is off models killed not wounds dealt. Even if he magically kills one they will have a led 7+ so even if they roll a six the rest of the squad is fine.

How did Jolyne Get out of prison?

She looks like she got hit with a machete.

Don't like it play open or narrative, they don't have that restriction.

>Tau Auxiliaries Codex

YES

Good news everyone! The commissariat just learned a new tactic that lets them shoot anyone for cowardice! They're no longer confined to the 10-20 people they squaddie up with. What do you think of that?

>Every guardsman in the mess vomits in terror

There was one at my last LGS, she came in with her husband and played nids

Before that i knew a girl who came in with her boyfriend and played necrons

One of my coworkers has a girlfriend who wanted to play space marines. They never showed up in the LGS though.

Do we know if wound-allocation is still 'closest to attacking models first'?

Sometimes you have to sacrifice fluff for balance dude, it's why space marines aren't T5 with 3 wounds each

No, she looks like she has a correct distruction of fat and muscle.
git gut fatty

>MFW I deploy 2 10 man ratling squads to deal with ICs

Nope, no idea what it will be.

It's like all of he best parts of tau and none of the bull!
