First for the Guard

Second for more guard.

Third for Renegades

Why are space yiff players the worst kind of overzealous fanboys?

Played my first game of 8th today. Man Guard had a significant buff. 5ish infantry squads with heavy weapons, company commander and commissar are ridiculous. Bait the charge with an understrength unit, take some casualties, fall back and blow them to shit with the rest of your guys.

The multiple command squad in chimera strategy is fucking solid too.

You poor poor soul.

FW ruined your army.

cant ruin what is already ruined.

You know they ban for that now, right?

Vikings of course

don't leave out the mega links edition

8th for nids i guess. nids still cool.. arent we

Since when? It's not against the rules, is it?

Less than 12 hours to FW FAQs
Potentially

I'm a little apprehensive, I think it is going to be a disaster. Again.

If you don't know how to make threads, please just don't do it.

12th for shitstealer cults a shit and gw needs to fucking die

13th for you are a fag.

"Hey you know that army that's whole gimmick is being similar to Guard but with TONS more customization?"

"Yeah?"

"Let's take the whole customization aspect and throw it in the trash so it's only half an army."

10/10 FW

Is Karanak worth 116 points?

Since a few days ago. I got a warning, other dudes got banned.

Ok, thanks for the heads up.

>tfw both your factions names characters were removed from your faction.
Why FW Why?

How so. I've never really seen them on the TT, so I guess that's indicative, but they look cool.

Will Issodon get an Invul?

>Since when has shitposting been against the rules?

Furries are usually very emotionally invested into things related to their... um, mental illne- I mean hobby.

Whenever we get new mods they enforce rules with triple zeal to make it look like they're doing their jobs, then after a month or two it goes back to normal.

It counts as violating the Gets! rule.

Who?

Riever stats get leaked yet?

not rly

You know you're a faggot now right?

>Will Issodon get an Invul?

More like will they cripple another army with poor rules and incoherency

>now

Thinking it probably won't be until Wednesday or so. That should be about when the stores get their shipments, and one of the managers will likely leak it.

I finally started Nids in 8e because the weirder kits, like Maleceptors and Lictors, are viable and fun

Aiming to 100% 112 models in under 7 weeks

I heard there were some leaked pics of new Death Guard terminators? Any truth to this?

I've seen the Plague Shooter Siege Plague Tank.

Major Durra and Inquisitor Solomon Lok, Major Durra is gone entirely afaik and Solomon Lok now belongs to Ordo Xenos Inquisitor faction and nothing else.

30th for loyal citizens of the Imperium.

>HELLFORGED
>If your army is Battle-forged, no Detachment may contain more HELLFORGED units than it does non-HELLFORGED units of the same battlefield role.

Eh, Issodon is pretty stupid as is.
12 Heavy Bolters up someones ass is pretty gross.

They comin'

Icantseeshitcaptain.jpeg

He's so happy

36th for GSC A SHIT

TFW your opponent gets mad that you forfeit a match you're getting absolutely CRUSHED in instead of wasting another hour in the match.

That's the only pic I have. Last time the pic was brought up people said the Terminator tease was taken out of the youtube trailer.

What are the best units for fighting either Space Wolves or Tau as Orks? I'm looking to expand my decently-sized, but kind of monotonous Ork army.

Pretty sure Lok is Malleus.

They originally got the legion number wrong and when they fixed it, this guy didn't make it back in.

>Tfw your opponent fights to the last man even though you are crushing him.

boyz

So are a new Ork Start Collecting! or codex coming very soon since it's sold out online everywhere but 'merica?

Heh he's trying to say that the model can't see shit but I like the model lol, looks like judge death

>Will Issodon get an Invul?
No, in lore he dislikes invuls because the energy fields would make him more detectable.

Inceptors can do that anyway, he just rerolls to hits and can deepstrike next to them. Shrike would be able to do the same thing.

ANy link for a collection (other than Black Library) of 40k fiction? Im wanting to get the new Lorgar book.

can someone post the rules for these guys? Or are they just rolled into scions?

I already have 130 boyz. Please don't respond with moar boyz.

>You'll float too

They're just Scions, not referenced at all in the rules anymore.

They're just scions now. Maybe if we're lucky we'll get regiment specific units in the codex, but I doubt it.

>rotting body is no excuse for poor dental upkeep

Need some and tags in the mix to screw things up more

Kasrkin are just cadian stormtrooper equivalents.

Hard not to

LISTEN HERE YOU LITTLE SHI- er, I mean, you're quite right, fellow loyal citizen!

I hope Orks are getting new boyz sculpts. If they make them the quality of the AoS Orks I'm definitely starting a new Orky collection.
Kans seem pretty good for what they cost.

>>rotting body is no excuse for poor dental upkeep

You know it

>new boyz sculpts

I wouldn't be surprised if they get PRIMARIS'D. They're far out of scale now and right weedy--plus we have an in-lore justification for bigger scaled boyz already--Octarius.

Accept the truth brother.
We must sacrifice ourselves to summon more 10 point Genestealers!

Boyz are fun, but I wanna try something new.

I have 3 kanz already but they don't often see play, especially vs. Tau.

I'm just kidding, I don't think the horde meme is anywhere close to being as effective as people want it to be, they're just too easy to thin out

Ten nobs

With kombi-skorchas

In a trukk

That's ten times D6 Str 5 AP -1 autohits. How's that for a drive-by.
(I guess they could fire the other part of the gun too. Might as well)

That's because you need more kans. If you only take a few it's easy to focus them down.

Yeah, especially against Tau. They just get eaten alive while footslogging, and they're not worth taking as units of 12 in Trukks.

>10 nobz with kombi-skorchas in a trukk

I ran this last game. He wasn't happy. Very funny stuff.

Maybe you're right--they are cool models, too.

Tankbustas.

Nobs, ironically enough, in a naut.

try experimenting with deployment of your boys, some of them in wagons, some with weirdboyz. I love wagonboyz.

Is there a reason the mega link is missing?

yeah, OP requires special care & attention
mega is here

Lok is xenos
Rex is mallus

Why would Lok belong to anything els?

>playing league game at flgs

>get 30 more pox walkers
>game turns into pox walkers over run the imperial guard

No he's Ordo Xenos, he was fighting Nids in IA4.

I have yet to try wagonboyz yet, though I am a huge fan of da jump. Last game I had 75 boyz within charging distance of an enemy unit in the first turn thanks to Da Jump and a hefty force of Kommandos.

You're right, I got them mixed up.

Well he was a HQ choice for D-99 in 7th which were an anti-nid gland warrior detachment

Forgot to mention that the objective also said that you can charge and shoot without penalty after coming on

Since /wipg/ is slow as shit, I'll ask here. What's your preferred method of painting faces? Eyes to be specific. I see so many guides that contradict, some say paint them first, others say paint them last, some say paint the whites first, others the pupil. Is there one method that's better for someone who's very new to faces versus another?

Also, how the fuck do I into blending? My transitions are ass and I don't know what else to do to fix it. The paints are almost as thin as the water when I use them, too. Pic related is my best blends so far, but you can see the obvious color transitions instead of a smooth gradient.

What reason might a Knight house have an alliance with the Sisters of Silence?

They really love ugly man faced trannies?

They're specialists in hunting big psyker xeno critters?

Because the Inquisitor traveling with the SoS (let's just say the group is hunting some super dangerous psyker) commanded that the Knight House should assist him.

Rival imperial knight household has a few psykers on staff or in the family (not as knight pilots, of course).
The Imperium being what it is, this house went "Oh shit! If Out rivals turn traitor or try to take over or holdings or whatever, we don't have any defences!" and promptly cozied up to the SoS.

I get annoyed when they won't concede. I'd rather play someone who isn't shit than waste time on someone who is clearly masochistic.

Where is that rule?

It doesn't exist for Chaos yet

Ok so I want to run a fluffy list of the last 30 Astral Knights in 1500 points after the World Engine incident.
I'm using the FW chaplain in a dread to represent the AK chapter master being a dread, and was wondering what to do with 9 models and 313 points. I also own three tarantulas and was planning on running them as assault cannon tarantulas if there are spare points.
Also what would be a good loadout for the chaplain dread?
As for how they'd play I was going to put the dread, the assault cents, dread, techmarine and apothecary in the stormraven and fly them upfield to dump into enemy forces.
So feedback and replies would be appreciated.

Praise Tzeentch!

On a related note why would anyone take a Chaos Predator over a Hellforged one? Seems the FW one is significantly better for only a few points more.

All good suggestions, thanks.

Probably not. Lots of big-name characters don't have ++saves

Do it user, I believe in you. Yeah alot of kits are great and fun to use now. Altgough the malceptor in my opinion is not that great but thats just me

Is it just me or do sisters look really strong this edition?

>Cheap 3+ bodies
>Cheap 3+ bs heavy weapons everywhere
>Repentia are pure rape
>Penitent engines are pure rape

I guess the only downside is a lack of long range anti tank, but Dominions with meltaguns in a melta immolator will do the job fine.

>Lack of Longrange anti tank
Exorcists FUCKED MY SHIT UP.

I needed a synaptic lynchpin for my 60 hormagaunts, and a back up for the 30 man termies if the Tervigon bites it early
Aparrently they're dead hard

Th-thanks user i'll give it my best

Really? It's just a battle cannon with -2 more ap for 160 points, doesn't seem worth the points cost given you need at least 2 preferably 3 to reliably fuck shit up.

Has anyone painted or seen the Dark Imperium Death Guard painted in the Black Legion colors?

I've found they're great in a Guard list with plenty of HWT support.
