First for I don't even know if this is a good list.

This abortion of an army is no longer valid.

Why not?

What the fuck even is that?

cypher is looking pretty good there

Read the rules about battle forged armies.

It is I, Cato Sicarius!

I, Cato Sicarius, demand suggestions for themes for my Ultramarines list. I, Cato Sicarius, demands that they be fluffy.

Too bad Eldar are still strong as hell

Anything wrong with this list or will this be a good enough foundation for my army?

>smurfs in 2017

Hmm is Plasma a deathguard approved weapon?

Feels like its not their style.

Does anyone have a PDF version of the rulebook they could share? Calibre shits itself when I try to convert it and it becomes mangled up in other converters.

You can't have more than one faction in your army.

All 5 indices(indexes?) epub up.

Talking about gimmicky lists.

Tyrannic War Veterans, my man.

Eldar bike spam with Tau riptides, basically a good stuff army from 7E.

Shit on the table and call it a win. As fluffy for UltraSmurfs as it can be.

Been playing this list for a few weeks and I still feel like Im missing something

Chapter Tactics are going to make or break my army

Vulkan in the Redeemer with Librarian and Vets

So explain how you can have Space Marines and Astra Militarum?

FW Imperial Index when?

because they are both imperium

Same faction

Imperium Keyword?

A long lost Company, like the 9th Legion.

Why transcendant c'tan when the others are almost strictly better?

Also how are you dealing with melee rushes? Your list is decent against shooting but melee would pick you apart.

Needs Crypteks and/or Ghost Arks for reanimation boosting as well, this is the character buff edition.

THats not all 5, learn to count

>"I'M A SCAT MAN!"

He's still uploading. Don't be a dick, say thank you.

So you'll just get retarded armies fielding the best of the 'Imperium'.

Nice going GW.

It's Oldcrons. I.e. only original Necron Codex units only I think.

>Nice going GW.
word we love this direction

feel free to kill yourself or get out of our hobby to be quite honest with you

Do you hang out in any other 40kg? If so you'd know that as time goes on and they release books you'll be rewarded for playing more narrow armies just like in AoS.

Then at the very least the transcendant c'tan should be Nightbringer.

Why would you ever take Cataphractii over Tartaros or Indominus?

>7e psychic phase: communism
>8e psychic phase: capitalism
Prove me wrong

Anyone got the rules from the FW imperial index, in particular the loyalist contemptor rules?

reposting to new thread from In the next to games the marine factions and the necrons were unimportant to this report. This is due to the fact that in both cases these forces fought effectively a separate battle from the guard and plaguemarines which in both games consistently plowed right into each other without any contact with the other forces on the battlefield. The two games the important units were 3 to 6 bullgryns a 20 man conscript blob with commissar/priest support vs 20 poxwalkers/plaguebringer/Lord of Contagion and then Tiphus/poxwalkers in the 25 power game. In each game the Poxwalkers and conscripts were first to engage with each other, after which the bullgryns counter-charged the plaguebringer/Lord of Contagion/Tiphus in an attempt to save the consripts from the poxwalkers. Both game ended with the same result. The poxwalkers destroyed the consripts in combat. Not due really to their stats but due to the rule that allows poxwalkers to regain a model for any model killed in combat. Effectively they converted the conscripts into more poxwalkers. Meanwhile the bullgryn outright killed a plaguebringer/Lord of Contagion per turn while losing only 1 of 6 models and they killed Tiphus in 2 turns while losing 2 of 3 models.

My conclusion is that poxwalkers and Bullgryn are very good(disgustingly good) at their jobs while conscripts and plague marine HQs are good but not suited for the combat that they engaged in. That and it is worth noting that infantry squads and heavy weapons squads which weren't mentioned in the report all folded in combat to anything and everything that managed to charge their emplaced positions.

Also to >What was your Bullgryns' loadout?
Slabshield and Bullgryn power maul which is a +2 save and S7 AP-1 D2 with 32 attacks on a charge hitting on a +3 wounding on a +2 or +3 for 6 bullgryn supported by a priest.

Only the meme armies got dick over, Necrons, tau and ork. Everyone else can still mix and match.

The Orks not having friends to ally up is sad thou.

thanks dude

Are coldstars good? 20"-40" movement per turn is ridiculously nice but are the guns you're locked into even worth it? do they mesh well with the guns?

7 decides if my next army is Mechanicus or Scions

Yeah, nice going GW. Way to let us use fun and fluffy armies.

Thanks a ton, user!

Plus taking a cryptek would give him another HQ, taking him to a batallion.

Which Ctan is best?

Mechanicum. Their models will be available one day....

Admech

They a cool!

How much is GW paying you to shill?

I wanna get into it.

>7e few interesting psychic armies
>8e everyone gets three powers
Seems like eighth is communism.

OPERATORS OPERATORS OPERATORS OPERATORS OPERATORS OPERATORS OPERATORS OPERATORS OPERATORS OPERATORS

I friend of mine plays both at the same time.

Ad Mech

Have you seen the rules? The "best of imperium" lists will just be all guard. Maybe a predator, but probably not even that.

Both

i don't really know if the primaris dudes are relevant here, but they're cool so I wanted to include them

also, thoughts on pred autocannon vs twin lascannon?

>liking things is shilling

Leave.

Tis been decided then.

I play SoB how the fuck I can shill for GW? I can't even buy the models for my army from GW

Will people notice if I use a illegal copy of the Indexes or not?

Just wait for the codex to give you a full psychic list you chink.

>7e: everyone shares warp charges and only the biggest shot uses them
>8e: each individual is free to roll for their own powers which they all gain individually through their own choice rather than randomly imposed on them by the warp

rip searchlights, dozer blades, hk missiles etc.

You can use destroyers with T5 3W 3+ each to screen warriors from melee

Being flyers, they can then fall back and shoot, leaving the charging unit in rapid fire range of your warriors.

How can I make primaris interesting?

anyone else remember the legendary missing armoury page?

:^)

>w8 4 8
>w8 4 codexes

After finding some old models and buying a few, I have about 30 necron warriors. Is that enough for a big unkillable robo horde, or should I get 10 more for two squads of 20?

wait for gw to add more depth first

We always knew we'd have to wait for codexes. This is not news.

>no deathwing
>no ravenwing
>land raider crusader
why?

liking objectively shit things is shilling.

>10 more for two squads of 20?
that, warriors in blobs are great. Add in your bits for better reanimation and some heavier guns and you're good to go

I have a question related to my Bullgryns' +2 save and to a burnajet.

In my two most recent games the other players and I had a odd save question. When a burnajet is -1 to be hit by ground targets. A Aegis defence quadgun has a +1 to hit units.

The quadgun is +5 to hit ground targets. Now against the jet is it a +4 or +5 to hit? (so +5-1+1 or +5+1)

Equally a Bullgryn with slabshield has a +2 save, the highest you can get, but a Primaris Psyker can give it a +1 save. If a model with AP-1 hits the bullgryn I assume the +1 save from the Psyker negates the AP leaving the Bullgryn with a +2 still, do you think this is right?

I replied to you in previous thread.

May as well play vanilla marines/10

i fucking love that photo

>why doesnt everyone hate what i hate REEEEEEEEEEEE
loving every laugh. Neck yourself

yeah something like this

What could this mean?

>Will people notice
Yes

All modifiers are cumulative, so if its BS is 5+, it has a +1 and a -1. 5+1-1=5+ to hit

With your shields, a save of 1 always fails, so your 2+ ignores the first ap-1 to remain a 2+

We get it Mortarion, you vape. You really didn't need to glue 10 of these fucking things to your respirator just to get your point across.

that looks like a pretty shit army.

DARK ELDAR SQUATTED

I can't wait until Primaris get a melee specialist unit. I'm painting mine as BA successors, so I wanna try Death Company Primaris.

>ipad
>no funny tabs open about hats
Mediocre

Fuck off already.

Same Faction: Imperium

DELDAR SQUATTED BTFO

Deceiver is best because it lets you scout itself+d3 units, which is amazing abd abusable.

Nightbringer is the pain model, specializes in killing none-vehicle characters.

Trannys suck now. I miss 6E apocalypse transcendant.

Not everyone has to share your shit tastes.

All the primaris had their geneseed flaws fixed, even the puppies and vampires

Anyone have a guess at how far away the non-Dark Imperium plastic Plague Marines are?

500 pts left for wargear options. almost everything is blank due to me not being familiar with marine options.

Objective quality does not exist; people like things that are different than the things you like

Gee I wonder.
