Does in that include shooting phases? Space marines shooting 19 pistols + d6 frag grenade vs 40 sluggas

Why are dark angels so homosexual? I get their primarch is named after a gay painter or some shit but why did they decided to make them all gay?
Connor White
For some inexplicable reason, GW will allow to rewrite or retcon as much fluff as you want. What do you rewrite/retcon?
Blake Sanchez
Bad thread. It's time to stop posting.

Why all the talk of fsm? Has something happened that I'm not aware of?
Xavier Hernandez
If CSM get brought into close combat by the boyz they're not going to have a good time of it. Best to fire bolters while moving backwards to keep out of close combat until you've killed enough to turn the combat in your favor and it also matters then who gets the charge off
CSM are given certain advantages over boyz, if you don't exploit those advantages then you should not be surprised if they underperform.
Dominic Moore
That Chaos is completely unstoppable. Ensure that we're back to the recently retconned 'if everyone dies, they die,' logic, but play up the moral conundrum that as long as the Imperium/galaxy survives, so does Chaos, and even if society or indoctrination suppresses the emotions that feed them they still lie there, watching and waiting in weakened form for disaster to strike once again, like some sort of horrible, parasitic cycle.

still mad
Jaxon Anderson
hey /40Kg/, where again did gw state that there'd be codices as well as the indices? i've been trying to find the post but i've had no luck
Samuel Butler
Female space marines are the AIDs of the 40k universe. Only a few people like them, and they won't just die so they stop spreading it to everyone else.
Isaac Ramirez
>le mad xd Kill yourself
Jayden Kelly
Naw. A lot of people just like to use them as a slippery slope argument for what will happen now that the Primaris marines are a thing.
Leo Ward
So between the Leviathan Siege Dreadnought and the Gorkanaut-Morkanaut, which one puts out more damage?
Gavin Ward
I'm never leaving home without a Callidus assassin ever again. It basically just erases a non named HQ from the game for 80 points.

It's just autism. Pure, uncontrolled autism.
Ignore and move on.
Chase Scott
Almost everything from the start of 5th edition onwards.
Give every single Faction major victories and get rid of all the shit fluff of armies jobbing in their own Codexes (especially Nids and Orks, failed Black Crusades, etc.)
Refluff Space Marine Chapters to be larger and give every Chapter a homegrown IG Regiment that escorts and supports them (ie Baal Devils, Fenrisian Shield Maidens, Ultramar Regulars, Orphans of Caliban)
Humans are distantly related to Aeldari to explain why they look so similar.
Bring back the heavily gothic overtones of the setting with more tragic but heroic deaths instead of comic book superhero shit.
Adrian Walker
Is it cost effective against commisars?
Jaxon Kelly
Yes, but good luck getting to him behind his wall of conscripts.
Xavier Harris
This, why do people think they'll ever be able to charge a commissar?
Benjamin Long
Would you care to explain? I don't have the inclination to go and read their rules at the moment.
Jonathan Jenkins
I kinda like the idea of 5 Storm Bolter Dominions. That's almost as much dakka as flamer Dominions but with more range and flexibility at only 70 points for the squad.
William Martinez
Because ">having enough conscripts to blot out the map" is never going to be a relevant strategy, and the more common approach will be daisy chains, which will allow room for charging.
Cameron Martinez
Once the mob gets dropped to around to less than 20 you should be good be good to melee.
>Just don't fail your charge. >Shooting your bolt pistols should drop 5-6 Boyz. >On Overwatch 20 Boyz do 0-1 USWs >On charge your 19 CSMs should do kill about 10-11 more Boyz. >But those "5" Boyz will drop 1-2 more CSMs
Rule of thumb 3 Sluggaboyz should on average drop 1 MEQ.
Plan accordingly.
Levi Richardson
Objectively correct verdict on Female Space Marines: fuck it.
Fluff your armies however you feel like it, I don't give a shit. It literally does not affect me in any meaningful way, and if you enjoy your own efforts and enjoy playing the game, good for you.
Mason Jackson
What is the best Daemon Engine for a World Eaters army? The Maulerfind has piss-poor offensive power but is very fast and tough, while Helbrutes fare better in combat but they're complete glass cannons (only 8W and M8" vs maulerfiends M10" W12 heals one per turn, but only A4 WS4+ and degrades).
Defilers just suck. Expensive, innacurate, relatively slow and only 3 attacks. Then you have Heldrakes which are quite neat but don't have any real anti-vehicle options.
Gavin Moore
Can "deepstrike" within D6+3 and charge.
Is a melee assassin, meaning it owns any dedicated melee (but get slaughtered by mass attacks)
Asher Bailey
Serious answer, there was a huge hubbub over pic related on tumblr recently. The creator had made an all-female space marine chapter called the Daughters of Persephone. It's actually not bad - an awful lot better than many homebrew chapters I've seen, and even several canon ones - but the amount that it contradicted the fluff triggered a lot of fanboys, who got very loud very fast. Trolls took notice and realized this could be used to their advantage.
Juan Ortiz
I just need 4 conscripts to make a commissar unchangeable, maybe 3
Aaron Young
I wanna know why they expect to be able to shoot a commissar. I mean, a couple Leman Russes, chimeras, tauroxes, or even wyverns parked between the troop lines provide perfect cover for anyone on a 25mm base.
Jose Martinez
is, "Meh, whatever their your dudes." acceptable?
Logan Lewis
I had a conversation with someone the other day and they said they hated the 40k community and blamed them for the lack of Female space marines.
Kevin Bell
The fact that so much effort was put into the chapter, in fact, only seemed to make the autists even more angry. She had a well-painted group with names and backstories, like many people do for their homebrew chapter, and had even designed a symbol for the chapter, akin to the ultramarine U or the Crimson Fist.
Logan Adams
but why would you ever not load dominions with the holy melta? (okay I admit i'm just saying that because that's how mine are currently built.
Brandon James
Diagram it out. Remember that multicharge is still a thing.
Lucas Bell
I will allow this.
Nicholas Jenkins
CADIA WAS A FALSE FLAG
Justin Torres
Well damn. Those look pretty good.
Daniel Campbell
Don't forget the d3 mortal wounds pistol that wounds if it beats the target's leadership with a roll of 3d6. Few characters survive through that and her close combat attacks. I've taken down Warbosses and Chaos Lords with ease.
David Gomez
Top fucking kek. I hope they keep hating us, and stay the fuck out of my hobby.
Matthew Cruz
will there be codexes in 8th edition or just indexes?? indexes seem barebones
Asher Adams
You don't need enough to blot out the map, you just need enough to prevent enemy models from being able to get within 1" of them. Stick the commissar smack in the direct center of a 50model conscript blob and he's untouchable, there's literally no reason not to do this unless you're hiding him out of LoS from snipers using method.
Logan Walker
>flat colors >well painted
Joseph Barnes
Of course, pic related being posted didn't precisely help the matter, and tumblr being what it is, the people who posted there are almost as bad as those here when it comes to letting something go. Neither side was blameless once it got going, but the creator didn't attempt to instigate things or post outside of their own circle. Ironically, this exact phrasing was brought up, and the fact that they weren't dudes was the counterpoint
Andrew Fisher
More than that. Remember they just have to get within an inch, not base to base. And you need to surround that fucker two layers thick against someone with fly or harlequins.
Carter Nelson
"Your dudes" is always acceptable. Doesn't make it good, but it is acceptable.
Christopher James
why do people want oldcrons back?
Asher Thomas
well yeah cos tumblr hair that alone triggers neckbeards with 100% accuracy
Jacob Butler
Sticking your commisar in the middle of a unit prevents it from affecting multiple units. If you want to keep coverage, you've just increased your commisar tax and decreased your conscript density.
Levi Howard
Read the fucking rulebook maybe
Michael Ortiz
They are barebones because they need to hold us over till the Codexes can start rolling out. I think I heard Space Marines in July.
Austin Miller
yes there will be codex's you retarded mong, they just aren't out yet.
Luis Roberts
My only problem is that these seems to have to feminine of faces.
John Campbell
Is it legal to run Khorne Berserkers in a Chaos Undivided army?
Tyler Martin
They were better than space tombkings with Pokémon.
Nolan Butler
>Want to buy Ork Weirdboy >Out of stock online >Go to ebay >Only one is 65 dollars
Being orks is still suffering sometimes.
Ryder Ortiz
GW could probably just put one line in a SM book that says female marines exist, then never make models for them, and 90% of players who want them will be satisfied. They wouldn't exactly be difficult to convert and 3rd party stores would probably start selling them like they do with female guard.
Brody Hughes
>groin has female symbol on it
Asher Allen
Jesus Christ that freehanded circle makes me so damn jealous!
Isaac Lewis
>fuck it
Oh I'd fuck her all right
Liam Williams
Also it dies to sniper fire if you just place it in the middle of the unit.
Jackson Brooks
Is it really that bad? A buddy of mine was saying the same thing a few days ago.
Carson Brooks
What is up with the terrible tiny face and weird spell thing.
Camden Barnes
Yes. You can put any and all units with the Chaos faction keyword in the same FOC.
I feel ya. The Ork Weirdboy model is fucking amazing.
Chase Diaz
Celestine is op
Henry White
Its Nurgle. Its purpose is to be disgusting
Blake Gonzalez
no they weren't. How are emotionless terminator clones are better than space versions of the best faction is WHFB? And sharding the C'tan makes a lot of sense, otherwise they are either stupidly underpowered for gods or not able to be playable.
Cameron Perry
Buddy you're hearing hooves and assuming zebras
Matthew Turner
I'm very glad I still have ork shamans from whfb. Weirdboyz went from unused previously to basically mandatory 1+ in every ork army.
Noah Smith
Objectively, all of this is a non-issue and will continue to be for as long as GW doesn't start making it canon. Granted, I would never play with someone so incapable of controlling their SJW autism even for a second that they committed blatant lore rape over it.
It really activates my almonds when a snowflake rapes the already inclusive fluff because he can't contain his desire to be special.
Caleb Torres
Cadded it up, it's 6
Still easy to do
Xavier Thompson
>they don't even have bare female heads or greenstuff tits
The fuck? Just treat it like any other lost founding homebrew, they're all equally unfluffy. No point in sperging out over it unless it's some dumb SJW who unironically wants to force GW to change official canon.
Eli Bell
He's casting Plague Wind, hence he's blowing the warp bullshit at his enemies. Does look a bit odd, though.
Ethan Mitchell
What do you mean they are totally dudes. Look, their tiny people with guns and rule of cool supporting them.
"Your Dudes" is a phrase independent of sex and gender. If you have a way cool staff working for you, and they are all women, they are still your dudes because they are dudettes. Much like a Princess when referred to in the general is a prince, a dudett in the general is a dude.
Hudson Martin
If I do a terminator army allied with a knight, will i get poopoo'd on?
Samuel Taylor
Are you talking about a full surround?
Matthew Myers
AutoCAD is the 5th Chaos God
Juan Moore
What exactly is the draw of female space marines above sororitas? I am genuinly curious. If it's the rules outside of waac fags nobody is stoping you for proxing sisters for marines armies.
Gabriel Rogers
This art is shit. But I'm a fan of these models.
Zachary Nelson
If your way of thinking was more popular, the world would be a better place.
She actually designed her own primarch for them as a response to people telling her that it didn't fit in. I believe her opinion was "Canon is only useful as long as we find it entertaining", or something of the sort - basically that the world should serve the players, not otherwise. This was well after many people had come out of the woodwork to yell at her, however.
Isaiah Gonzalez
Is an Eldar Ghost army viable in 8th? Thinking approx 1k points, with some wraithguard, blades, a spirit seer, and maybe a big guy? Or some travelling rangers joining up. Anyone got any idea how that can fare?
Xavier Howard
Aside from perhaps Knights, 8th edition is looking horde-ish meta wise. Conscripts with Commissars, Cultists with Abaddon, Orks, Nids. All fearless Hordes and seemingly top tier. And even against vehicles meltaguns are no longer the god weapons they once were. Some meltaguns is no doubt still good, I think all meltaguns is a mistake. Flamers likely are still superior, mainly due to overwatch. But I like the fact that Storm Bolters can be considered a non-crazy option now. New storm bolters are one of my favorite bits of 8th.
Jonathan Phillips
Space marines are so genetically and cybernetically modified that they don't qualify as human anymore. People look at that, and think it's stupid the same can't be done with women for reasons.
Easton Martin
Sororitas are too sexualized and Space Marines remain a maleclusive space. So of course radicals want to make Space Marines For All, which will open the way to the next advancement in the fight for equality tranny marines.
Jackson White
Sisters are consistently shit on in the fluff. Marines consistently win in the fluff. People want to have the ones who represent them not just be there to lose.
James Sullivan
Sisters of Battle: > Lose every fight > Old metal models > Bodices and high heels in combat > No real lore presence outside Celestine
Space Marines: > Win every fight (often with Heavy Casualties, but they don't matter by next fight) > Current and updated lore, involved in all the major battles > Consistently updated and available minis > What everyone thinks of when they think 40k, so creators' minds go to them often
Kevin Lewis
I played a 1500pt game with 2 spirit seers, 2 units of wraithblades with sword, 2 units of scythe guard and a wraithknight with cannons against Genecult Lost cause it was too slow in the end for objectives, but otherwise it held up rather well defensively. D-scythes while powerful as fuck, still aren't as amazing as last edition wraithknights will still amazing, are now 200pts more expensive, and aren't as unmanagable as before wraithblades are *really* good runes of battle is *really* good
Jaxon Campbell
I'd make a Nids comment but, yeah they get fucked all the time too don't they?
