Warhammer 40,000 General /40kg/

The interceptors are posed terribly desu

The poxwalkers on the other hand are amazing

THESE GUYS ARE SO FUCKING HAPPY

And so am I

Man... I.. really dont like these, it's like some nightmare Deviant art style MK 200 power armour, with the generic sci-fi filter turned to 11

Yeah.

Those jump packs look really weird...
Good god that nurgle drone though...

>there are now space marine lieutenants
Good
>the space marine captain and interceptors look fucking stupid
Fuck
>Most of the Death Guard miniatures look like shit
DOUBLE FUCK

I feel bad for that poor Nurgling...

>>Most of the Death Guard miniatures look like shit
kys

Suprising amount of consensus on the Assault marine being awful

Sweet Emperor how are you supposed to painted those ridiculously-overdone Death Guard units? There's such a thing as too much fucking detail.

>primadonna marines get BTFO by nurgle on thier starter set release

And what the fuck are those footsoles with the Inceptors? That's something from the Kharadrons they didn't need.

Maybe he aæways wanted to be popped?

But that axe man.. it's like a reject from the Ork codex.
Gonna gave to fix that garbage.

CHAOSFAGS BTFO

>Death Guard look like shit
n'wah what
He's probably having a grand old time.
also that fucking helmet, i didn't know excalibur had fallen to chaos

I like it. Wonder what the rules for the lieutenants will be.
Also, a fucking 280 page hard back rule book with all that shit and something like 50 models? This shit is either going to be really expensive or an amazing fucking deal

I don't even play Nurgle and I love how they, along with the other DG stuff looks. I also like how they went for more of the formerly human zombie look
I wonder how restricted those new HQs will be when they're released outside of the set- I hope nurglefriends get some customizability like exalted sorcerers got so they can have a bit of fun making their own characters and stuff.

...

Yeah, sad to admit I like litteraly nothing that is specific to those sculpts. The hood, the guns, the jetpack, and the soles are all terrible. I really loved the Tacticals but what the fuck are those.

Death Guard look incredible bro. NuMarines flying edition look pretty stupid. There wasnt really any need to bring out a new wave of marines, pretty glad i dont play marines at this point

Forgeworld had the perfect blight drone, why not just make that in plastic? And the plague zombies or whatever-the-fuck look shit too. The sorcerer might be the worst of them all. Plague Marines are pretty cool though, as are the other two heroes.

>tau in the same book as orks and nids
Top kek, tau confirmed not civilized enough to be with crons and eldar

Is that a plastic blight drone?

I keep hearing $160 rolling around.

They're calling it a "bloat drone".

Any word on price yet?

I wonder what Questor Traitoris is? Chaos Knights?
I'll get used to them eventually, but they're definitely the worst of all the new models they've teased. Hopefully the gun-shields on the bolters are separate bits.

You'd think they'd swap tau and crons over.

That is clearly just a bad kitbash. People will fall for anything these days.

The Nurgle aesthetic definitely seems to have some Rogue Trader elements mixed in. Particularly in the plasma weapons. And I love it.

Yeah, I recognise that old friend.

>all the decent xenos armies in book 1
>all the shit xenos armies in book 2
pottery

I'm just glad to see that they appear to be correct, our current marines will still be useful.

So far, not seeing anything resembling an assault marine so my Blood Angels will continue on.

Wait a minute
>jetpack marines dualwielding pistols in a state of constant flight
Oh fuck these guys are Reapers from Starcraft

>

>Questor Traitoris is? Chaos Knights?
Considering Imperial Knights are Questor Imperialis, most likely.

No Black Templars. No Vows for the Emperor's Champion

How much better is this?

Looks like flamers will ignore cover bonuses

It's like Centurions all over again.

So how about that captain in Gravis Armour?

So the core rules will be free on day one but will the indexes for the armies be free/digital too?

My only problem with them is the generic poses. If they were posed shooting, or swooping, or doing something other than hovering a few feet off the ground with their guns at their sides like they're riding in the Dreadknight baby carrier, they'd look much better.

I think they're solid. The tacticals look sweet, though. Getting the starter box with a buddy, some Howling Griffon marines will really pop against my drab, mudstained IG.

looks kinda goofy but i guess they're going for a hovering look, could probably look pretty neat in a more dynamic pose
Neat. The lieutenant's power sword seems to be broken, though.

Damn I want that nurgle half, especially the drone. Nurgle sorcerer looks amazing as do the marines.

>7 plaguerines
it's the little things

>assault on BLACK reach
>DARK vengeance
>DARK imperium
Is GW trying to send us a message here?

>Nurgle
>9 plague marines

Also, no troll face terminator to be seen, so I assume that was from a proper plague terminator kit.

Love the fact the rulebook looks to be a hardcover version.

>no thyphus
>no death guard terminators
What did they mean by this?

Wonder what the symbols on these command dice mean. Possibly hinting at some of the marine stratagems?

He looks goofy. Like he's leaning forward like the current ork boyz model.

I dunno what it is about these dudes, but it's hard to buy in to the knightly pomp and knightly shit with this new armor. Maybe its because I just grew up playing this game when I was a kid, so my mind is just inundated with it, but the hi-tech armor and then the old school Astartes knight shit just seems to clash really hard.

Also why's everyone got librarian hoods? Looks like shit.

Or Kastellans
Frist 6 months after release the top google result is "how do I unfuck X"

H-he's ok I guess.

That captain's armor looks straight up like the ultras from the Dornian heresy.

I'm loving the veteran command squad (space marine lieutenants are a thing now? what?)

I'm undecided on the assault marines. They make a lot of sense design wise from a "guy who fights in outer space in a vacuum" standpoint, but I prefer the original assault marine flavor.

The death guard models are fucking beautiful.

I havent heard fuck all about 8th really and havent played since 4th. Anybody want to tell me what is the point of these books are if we just buy codex's?

>gw using that meme deviantart image
WHAT DID THEY MEAN BY THIS

Because they aren't releasing codexs at launch. Hell we don't even know when they're releasing codexs other than 'later down the road"

There is one thing, and one thing only that matters about this boxed set...

...and it's the "so stupid looking that they are cool" retro 2nd ed style plasma guns on the chaos dudes. Holy shit I love those things.

Also, (again) holy shit is there a lot of plasma in this boxed set.

This generification reminds me of the Damocles Pattern power armour

Stand-in for codexes until the proper books arrive.

Because you might want to be able to play your army before your codex comes out

Where can I find a recaster if they all decide to be so secretive?

>DG butthurt SW stole their scythes
>proceeds to steal ork choppas

That's not an assault marine, no chainsword anywhere.

So is this the new termie or artificer armour?

Can't say I'm really big on the hood or the power fist, hood has the same pronlem as the Assault marines so I'll see.

Are Space Marines officially independent or are they technically subordinate to the High Lords? I know that in practice they do their own things but what is the situation on paper?

That's it's the Grimdark future ya dingus.

Right cheers user. Im scared at the potential cost of these faggots

New objectives
>that genestealer containment pod

Artificer analog, GW said it's a new type.

no

So, does the Primaris having Ancients mean that they upgraded the best in the Chapter?

If so, where is Sicarius?

>babby drop pod

G U N D A M

A S S A U L T

M A R I N E S

They said during the live Q&A that they'll be priced below the cost of a normal codex but with GW who the fuck knows how much that'll be.

Dead I hope. Fuck that guy.

huh.
looks like the primaris marines are organized into squads legion style.

i wouldn't put too much stock in that genestealer desu
he hasn't got a leg to stand on

What's wrong with his face?

A wild guess:
>1. Pinned
>2. Deep Striked/Disembarked
>3. Moved
>4.
>5. Go to Ground
>6. Charged

Well, I was going to fap to porn but then they released these images....

Marinelets btfo

It means they know their audience.

It's just the standard title. A bit bummed he's litteraly an Tactical with a banner arm, but oh well, that's how they always were for conversion's sake.

Those marines are so terrible. It's disgusting to know so many people will actually buy space marine space marines.

On paper they are below the high lords and the munitorum.

CUTE!

I like that he has a boner hanging between his legs.

Imperial authorities can petition (or beg) Space Marines to intervene in their pet war zones. Space Marines can either show up, or tell them to fuck off. Their "independence" is a big deal because it means that a crazed nutter like Goge Vandire can't compel Marines to go along with his bullshit.

Their audience is tumblrtard socjus shitheads?

Are Primaris marines even good? Don't they just have one more wound than normal and will probably cost a fuckton more points?
