first for Ork codex never

POST NURGLINGS! (seriously, I keep forgetting to save them)

reposting from the bottom of last thread.

Hey guys, getting my new (almost all Dark Eldar) Ynnari army together. Let me know if this list is fun/playable.

1499/1500 points
Ynnari Battalion

HQ:
Yncarne (Warlord)
Yvraine

Elites
Bloodbrides (10) (1 Agonizer, 3 Hydra Gauntlets, Adrenalite)
Trueborn (5) (2 Darklances, 2 Blasters, Venom)

Troops
3x Kabalite Warriors(5) (1 Shredder, Venom)

Fast Attack
Windriders (3)

Flyers
2x Razorwing Jetfighter (2 Dark Lances)

Is there a way of equipping Hammerheads that is just outright superior or are the two main guns more sidegrades?

neat, someone finally made one. Not a bad translation of the original list either.

Railgun with submunitions.
Ignore the Burst Cannon upgrade.

Has the release order of the rest of the Codexes been revealed?

With FW you get a few more options

Thanks.
Also I agree with What the fuck were they thinking.

No but its probably going to be CWE>Nids>IG

Craftworld Eldar, Tyranids, and IG are next. Followed by more marines.

how do you take a detatchment of assassins? They have no HQ. What do I do to take them in a list?

An inquisitor, duh

Auxiliary detachment

Best weapon for a shooty Terminator captain? Storm Bolter?

Primarch's wrath or combi-plasma.

(OP)
Finally built up a 2000pt army.
>2x 30man cultist squads
>2x 10man berzerkers squads
>chaos Lord with power sword and plasma pistol
>chaos Lord in terminator armor with lightning claws
>helbrute with twin lascannons
>30 bloodletters
>6 blood crushers
>skulltaker
>Herald on throne
>skull cannon
Total of 1996pts
I want to add a rhino or two and drop the Lord in termi armor down to a normal Lord though. Still need to prime and at least wash all of them.

An Inquisitor, I'm fond of Greyfax
A Tempestor Prime is a very cheap choice
I take a chaplain dreadnought for them to hide behind as it's a tough character with Iron hands tactics
You'll need several HQ choices but remember that you can actually only use 3 detachments for matched play

Combi-weapon. Plasma's probably the best since he can give himself the re-roll to 1's on overcharges, with flamer being in second.

That's suggested rules. It'll vary by local meta/tournament standards.

dont auxilary detatchments subtract from your cp?

They do, but most of the time you'll have an abundance of them.

If you aren't playing a codex army you can just bring them in another detachment at no extra cost.

Could you fire Primarch's Wrath and the combi-plasma in the same turn? Battlescribe is letting me take both so if I can stick a gun in each hand and dakka dakka I will

Ynnari lists never look like they have enough models to me

yes, you can fire all the guns you got but firing both modes on the combi guns has a -1 BS penalty

I forget, was it Martellus or Avitus who was the canon traitor? I know it was Martellus in my playthrough, and I can only assume this was the catalyst for his betrayal.

>Battlescribe
Read your codex

that's 31 infantry minis, 3 Jetbikes, 4 Venoms, 2 flyers, and a monster. That's not bad at 1500. I run similar numbers in swarmy Nid lists.

Stupidly no, you cannot take both, because the Cap starts with a MC bolter, which he can swap out for either Primarch's Wrath OR the combi-plasma. If it was legal take both though, yes you could fire both.

However if you're in the market for a shooty HQ and you don't mind special characters, then consider Lias Issodon, he's the best shooty Captain (actually Chapter Master) I know, bar none.

this. while it is a convenient list builder it is not faultless.

Looking to build a list around my shiny new Lord of Skulls. Thoughts on where to begin?

Jump Pack Sorcerer - Prescience, Warptime/Death Hex (Use Chaos Familiar to Swap Smite for one of two?)

2x Havocs - Lascannons all around for eliminating anyone trying to snipe the LoS from long range

2x Berzerkers - Do I really need to explain this one?

3x Cultists - Meat shields and deep strike denial, probably throw in an Apostle if points allow.

What am I missing here?

They need to have these for free with codices along with some english lessons so that WAACfags and idiots don't act so stupid.

Or maybe a tech marine? Cant they get like 3guns+beamer?

Any tips for equipping chaos terminators in a squad of 5 in 8th edition?

Combi-weapons.

that would require GW to brush up on thier own english.

Shit yes, that's awesome. Now, final question. What's a better melee weapon if you can only bring one? Lightning Claw or a Thunder Hammer? I like the reroll on wounds but Thunder Hammer hits like a truck

Oh, well shit I'm a little confused now. I'm gonna go reread it to make sure

I was just slightly confused because of the relic. Plus I have a book allergy

How do you fix the MBT versions of the Leman Russ to make them worth playing?

So you guys think there will be a new plastic regiment for IG?

oh

Yeah but anything even to do with melee or marks? Was wondering if there was anything else people were getting up to.

Quick, what is the most WAAC 1250pts 7th ed Necron list I can run without flyers?

>I was just slightly confused because of the relic.
Relics replace a similar weapon, which you would know if you reasd your codex

>Plus I have a book allergy
Hopefully it kills you

Wow the new Primaris Primaris model looks great.

All but the daemons yea.

Well, one new strat with Scarab Occult terminators is this:

>have C:CSM detachment
>have 1ksons detachment with Scarabs
>use Chaos Familiar strat (1 CP) on the Aspiring Sorceror and give him Warptime instead of smite
>deepstrike
>Warptime next to thing
>shoot thing
>charge thing
>whackwhackwhack

Why an ATS on fusion weapons...?

of crose hw needed new englishes. but is' slight faults of waacfags porpoise fully misses readied like within fly stormed strategiem

I really need to get these damn things painted. Might be a while. I don't feel like they're very strong in 8th. Only gave them a couple shots though, so maybe I'm wrong.

Combi-Plasma with a flying sorcerer and Lord to reduce a vehicle of your choosing to slag. Their melee weapon is largely irrelevant, but axes are usually a good choice. Personally, I like Lightning Claws, but I'm a night lord fag. A unit with axes and plasma is 250pts. Meltas are more expensive, but have more wound potential to harder targets, however they're not as good against multiple models. Combi-flamers are literally unusable without warptime, but combi-bolters are CHEAP and put out a ton of shots against infantry.

Paint pls

>ynnari
>not a faggot
Pick one

Ynnari are the Ultramarines of Eldar.
Dark Eldar players don't want to side with Craftworld.
Craftworld thinks it's probably a trick.
Harlequins don't really give a shit and are either trying out Ynnari for the sake of trying it or sticking to their faction.

For some reason I thought they were -3. Amending.

Is bringing multiple captains a bad idea or no? Would I be better with another HQ choice to with a captain?

He's a big Abhuman.

UUUU

What's the rest of the list like?

He's not wrong

No Supreme Command Detachment/10

It's not done yet, just kind of poking around with ideas. I'll post it in a bit

Normally I'd say it wouldn't be cost effective, but again it depends on what else you're bringin

If The emperors children ever get a codex like Deathguard did, what new units would you like to see? Obviously Fulgrim as the big centerpiece, and new noise marines, but what else could they do with a slaanesh codex?

So Kromlech is pretty great. Got 10 of these things and they are pristine. Price+shipping was reasonable too.

Do you ever use dual lightning claws on a 5 man squad or just run one with combi bolters or some sort of combi weapon? The sorcerer strat sounds fun as fuck.

pics or you're a shill

It's not like I'm running cheese. I'm just asking if my somewhat fluffy/thematic list would work. The only reason there's even a craftworld unit in there is that I had a 60 point hole to fill and little else made sense.

Ref.

An eldar army of nothing but Warlocks and farseers in wave serpents flying forwards and piling out and casting smite like mad

Avitus according to the last expansion.

Blood angels boys

I'm running this guy with some death company because I can

take ten seconds and convert your own, goddamn

Is that good or bad, I can't tell.

It makes no sense foe me to have 6 fucking commanders.

It's certainly not as broken as Ynnari can get. But Soulburst on its own is cheese as shit.

>vespids

You're good man, bless you

>Beating up a turtle
>hi-ya kicking a titan

great """art"""

good for your opponent, bad for you.

Well, with the Deathshroud brought into 40k, I could see similar treatment for the Phoenix Guard. Maybe Fabius Bile's experimental Marines, though he doesn't really have much to do with EC Legion any more, I suppose.

It's sort of a problem for the Children as a whole, given IIRC it's one of the most fractured Legions, that I don't see units like the Palatine Blades or the Phoenix Guard staying together, and they've never really had anything else defining in the lore. I suppose a Cult Terminator unit of some sort, but that's basically just bigger Noise Marines.

Commander lists are a meme.

"I gave her the HI-YA, and an OO-WA. And then I kicked her, sir"

What the actual fuck? What book cover is that?

New units?

>New Noise Marines
>Pleasure Cultist of some type
>Phoenix guard termies for sure
>Would love to have some cultist riding some like... robot chicken with sound guns or something.

Bring it on.

Sonic Helbrute, Palatine Blades (melee specialist chosen, capable of taking advantage of Excess of Violence Stratagem), Phoenix Guard Terminators (melee specialist, faster than standard Terminators, special power spears with high AP)

>But Soulburst on its own is fun if you aren't a powergaming faggot
fixed.

Noise Marines
Sonic Helbrutes
Fabius' New Men, though he is not EC or Slaaneshi
Cult Terminators
Marines riding Seekers or half-marine half-seeker
Various characters.

I want to see Slaanesh given a model now that its living inside a psyker and enjoy the pleasures of the flesh.

If you aren't a powergaming faggot, you just don't run Ynnari.

Slaanesh is... living in a dude?

Are Lightning Claw vanilla Terminators outclassed in almost every case?

I feel like Tartaros are just straight up better than tactical terminators and Lightning Claw assault Terminators

Hammernators seem like a huge gamble even with a vehicle

They could put it in the trash obviously

Yes, Abaddon bought the loyalty of Fulgrim and his legion by gifting Slaanesh a Pythosian psyker capable of being a vessel for Slaanesh.
