Is the DualGravFlux Leviathan really worth it for 309 points ?

hehe wrong pic

Requesting an example of a recast knight from Z.

And the FW Bloodthirster

Previous thread is a requirement of making a 40kg

kys

...

BL Canon

>"Somewhere in the lashes of the Eye of Terror, Lelith Hesperax flicked open her eyes with a slow smile, the serrated perfection of her teeth glinting lightlessly...(upon killing an underling) This soul she would offer to the Satin Throne, its twisted and unrestrained hedonism would please the dark lord of pleasure and fulfill the continuing terms of their ancient compact." -

>moralfags

Lurk more faggot.
Half 40kg dont have the previous thread.
You're just assmad nobody can see your SJW Buzzfeed shitpost

>if the company dies from people not buying models it's way better than the company dying because people bought from recasters!

>So they confirmed that moving forward, should a marine need to be put into a Dread, that they will be put "into the new better ones, because they are better". And "that doesn't mean there wont be old ones around, just not as many"

>Planting to seeds of what many fear to have been true, know your fate and embrace it, the inevitable is coming.

So my local FLGS is doing a PL tourney as kind of a gag, they literally want us to try and break the system as hard as we can.

So with that, what's the nastiest way Orkz can abuse Powerlevel?

Let's face it we all know what's coming

Boyz, Gorkanaut, Nobs with a stupid amount of upgrades, mostly shit that can take a silly amount of upgrades.

Nobz are literraly the best way to break PL

so snipers are basically worthless inn 8th.

they don't do enough damage to kill big characters, and the characters they can kill are cheap and spammable.

assuming your opponent hasn't just hid them behind los blocking terrain while enjoying their buffs.

If you dont think the next codex SM will be Codex : Primaris you are literraly retarded.
They will probably get 3-4 more tanks and at least 5 units within the next years

Killing Nobs with the WAAAGH! Banner is important and they're about 79 points each.

I am pretty new to the hobby but grey knights were always one of my first choices if I did start and now I have an opportunity to buy pic related, I just need help identifying the wargear on them and what kind of offer I should make.

lel forgot picture

What are Primaris tanks gonna look like?

How do you make a tank THICCC?

...

But their Effectively a waste because their point/firepower efficiency could be spent on killing 'Da Boyz' instead of killing the Nob Behind them, then dying in combat anyway...

You guys are adorable.

I want to carry you on my Mark X shoulders and buy you an ice cream.

>half of the OPs are fumbling retards so just deal with it

Yeah no sweetie

I don't have a pic but my knight porphyrion was nearly immaculate, I have zero complaints.

what this guy said, my buddy swore off of PL for good after I brought my 20 man blob all with Power Klaws and Scorchas

Reminder that female techpriests are gay and BL canon is shit. This has been a public service announcement, thanks and goodbye

Anyone Else tried cork-basing their models because it really works and can be both rubble/ rocks (also because you can compensate for the manlets size difference)

8E and the playerbase remind me of a girl going back to an abusive ex-boyfriend because he did some bare minimum changes to improve his behavior. He's trying really hard! He's gone to two AA meetings and found a part-time job!

People were starting to branch out in historicals, Infinity, Dropzone, etc and now everyone I know has beelined right back to 40K.

Deathmarks with an Overlord putting My Will Be Done on them begs to disagree with you.

Also, at ATC this year, a Guilliman at full health was taken out by a couple squads of Ratlings.

>dont even try to deny "XE" is a tumblerina working at Buzzfeed

No females allowed here, it is a safe place.

there's already some shots of one tank, the repulsor? I think, it's a big mess with lots of guns and missiles all over.

I'm expecting one without the turret that has a transport option, maybe an assault gun variant like the vanquisher?

If you could take a picture some time I would seriously appreciate it.

Huh, so Chester Bennington killed himself.

Sad.

Sheeple gonna sheeple my man.

You've got draigo, brotherhood champion, brother captain, 4 psycannon power armor knights, 6 incinerator power armor knights, 2 psycannon terminators, 1(?) incinerator terminator, 6 storm bolter terminators and a lot of storm bolter grey knights

>price

well I like the metal models a lot and those metal psycannons look cooler than the plastic ones.

Also keep in mind those metal power armor dudes were $35 for 5 even in 2003, so if he's asking like $150-200 for this army its not unreasonable

Oh of course yeah, I think I tried to erase that from my memory

go on

it takes a statistical average of 27 space marine snipers (not counting mortal wounds) to kill a single fucking nob. even if you get lucky and kill it with only 15 snipers, that's still 210 points you could have spent on something not shit.

snipers would still be useful if they allowed you to choose the models that die when you shoot a normal unit (special weapons etc.) but since you can't do that they only exist to sneeze at characters.

Well its primed now but I didn't have any problems with the fiddly details nor any excessive warpage.

Even DLFG and Miko?

I can feel the space furries/faggot marines coursing through my veins like slaaneshi viagra right now youtube.com/watch?v=Fh1sjpL-WAY&list=PLrlDWoJ_NK4ZEwOCnArCGaJT9kRJb4s-a&index=3

>People were starting to branch out in historicals
No they weren't, the only people who were ever going to go from 40k to historicals were the people doing that anyway

>Infinity
Infinity is shit, I hope 8th kills it

>Dropzone
This game deserves more love and is cheap enough to get into, if my local scene played it at all I would totally play both

GO GO SHITSTERS OF BASSHOLE YOU TRANNYFACED SHITSTERS OF BASSHOOOOLE

Sad. but were not in 2004 anymore.
(((They))) didnt want him to succeed anymore.

ill give that there might be some exceptions.

ratlings are cheap as fuck so spamming them doesn't cost much.

I'm talking about general purpose snipers.

So do you guys think CSM will get a Biggly Marines equivalent? Basically all of my models are HH and I'd rather not suddenly have giant spike men standing over them.

Your problem is that you're looking at scouts instead of good snipers like ratlings, command squads or vindicares.

TS and DG are already primaris sized.
As for the fluff, no since primaris are literraly immune to chaos

No, the new kits they are releasing are already upsized (see the new deathguard)

>since primaris are literraly immune to chaos

Literally never been established. And the fact that Cawl wants to mess with traitor geneseed leads me to think there'll at least be renegade primaris if not fully corrupted ones.

CSM don't need the 'Primaris' fluff excuse to get bigger models, they're all warp powered.

Can someone post the Vrosh Tattersoul stats

>As for the fluff, no since primaris are literraly immune to chaos

Since when?

Yes, women are triggering to some people here and we can't have hurt feelings.

Praise be to Slaneesh.

None of them have fallen to chaos yet but its only been 100 years and they've been surrounded by inquisitors, grey knights and Guilliman himself in the Indomitus Crusade. Now that they're out on their own, they may find their spiritual protection weakened.

>As for the fluff, no since primaris are literraly immune to chaos
They've said this nowhere. All they've said is cheeky "hrawhraw will the new augments of the Primaris be enough to overcome Chaos corruption? We'll just have to wAiT aNd SeE!"

Meaning yes, they're going to start replacing chaos marinelets with new chad models eventually because GW likes money and you faggots will give them money for taller models because you have insecurities about your masculinity and need to have the TALLEST MANLIEST PLASTIC MANS

I'll meet you halfway there, yeah. Tau Sniper Drones are trash because they also lack the mortal wounds thing and Marine Sniper Scouts are mediocre in general.

I'll still champion Deathmarks for as long as they keep doing their job in my games. And believe me when I say that the look on an IG player's face when every commissary is systematically turned into confetti is always worth it!

But 27 scout snipers will get 3 mortal wounds per shooting phase, that's not trivial.

Use more Snipers, then.

>he hasn't read the material but still insists on posting here
You should try reddit it's way more suited to your caliber of lifestyle

>Codex : Primaris
Nah, it will still be Codex Space Marines, they gotta keep using it since they own the trademark.

Manlet marines will be gone by next codex though.

Thanks for the breakdown, I think I'll make an offer

I am tempted to begin an Ork army.
What are the first purchases for a good 'ol Dread Mob army type ?

...

>muh headcannon is true guyz!

I'm sure you're the next hire at GW user

Dark Imperium says that they're resistant but nobody in universe assumes they're immune.

Honestly it could go either way, they could make primaris CSM for vanilla Chaos or they could treat primaris like Stormcast and never have them fall to chaos.

Stormcast at least have a good fluff reason for the latter (literally soul bound to Sigmar), Primaris do not.

I've read it all, dear reddit shitposter, and listened to the livestreams. GW has in fact been very careful to go out of their way to never confirm that Primaris are immune to chaos corruption. I wonder why that is????????????????? But keep being a triggered chaoslet.

>I am tempted to begin an Ork army.
You're doing 40k wrong

>Stormcast at least have a good fluff reason for the latter (literally soul bound to Sigmar), Primaris do not.

Clearly the new organ is a rod so far up the ass they can't fall.

Zog Off, yer juz jeluss.

Fuck it, I like it. Its a hover sicaran-razorback.

I hope the Heavy Lascannon isn't just STR10, I'd rather have AP-4 or 2D3 damage imho.

Fuck your safe space.

>having taste THIS shit
No he's doing it exactly right.

How's this look for a small blades of vengeance/dark angels army? Battalion detachment, 1000 points.

>Captain in gravis armour (sword & gauntlet) - 137

>Librarian (force sword) - 105

>5 scouts (4 sniper rifles, missile launcher, power sword) - 100

>5 scouts (4 sniper rifles, missile launcher, power sword) - 100

>10 intercessors - 200
(Or two 5s if their unit size doesn't go up in the codex.)

>3 ravenwing black knights (3 plasma talons, power sword, meltabombs) - 159

>Ravenwing land speeder vengeance (assault cannon) - 143

>Ravenwing dark talon - 188

>995 points and 59PL if anyone gives a fuck.

I guess the main question is, is a small unit of black knights worth it? Kind of wondering if they need to be a bigger unit to be worth taking at all.

Worthy of its Repulsive name.

>massive damage control
lol

I mean, for Stormcast it makes sense because they're so strongly bound to Sigmar that when they die their souls are flung through the realms to rejoin with Sigmar. Its not unreasonable to say that makes them extremely resistant to corruption.


Primaris have 3 new implants that give them steel muscles, bigger size and a last stand adrenaline rush. Not nearly the same thing. It would feel kind of stupid.

>Truth is damage control

Vengeance a shit, replace it with a Darkshroud. That'll keep your Knights alive because those are high profile targets thanks to 7e.

youtu.be/td3DvdrlCm0

Rate these Nids.

meh/10

I want the next Fate series installment to have Guilliman as the Seibah clone.

>feminine face
user please this is a blue board. And I'm out of sfw traps.

>CRAAAWWWWLIIIIINNGGG IIIIIINNNN MAAAAHHH SKIIIIIIIIIIIIN
Good riddance

>Vengeance a shit
Huh. Okay then, will rearrange stuff.

What's your favorite dreadnought fellas?

And take a Ravenwing Apothecary for extra measure. Also good for reviving anyone who needs it on the go.

Gimme suggestions for fluffy Bad Moonz armies, Veeky Forums

visually loud and uninteresting, like all 40k players

Looks pretty badass

At this point it'll just be an expansion for FGO.
I'd he okay with this.

I hate the colour scheme, but I like that Rob picked Nids for his entry into 40k and properly understood they are the horror faction. He's a good man.

I'm wondering how much those grav chassis bits will go for after release - I would think everyone will want them to add to their existing vehicles

Dorrito dread all the way

Yeah 15 scouts kill a nob over 2 turns, 30 boyz still left on the field charge and kill them all. 15 Wolfguard with stormbolters and chainswords instead just kill all the boys in one turn with 100 s4 attacks.

>avatar fagging pedophile
Isn't there a antifa meeting you are late for?
