Last Thread:

I don't even normally care about tactical rocks

but man that one is some horseshit

at least he isn't grabing her croch. would be too Trump.

I actually just noticed tactical grope for the first time.

Has the Legate always had such massive gropy hands? All of a sudden I feel like at least 2 levels of their Martial Arts is just them having big meaty paws to pound people with.

What the fuck even is that. Why is it so huge. Joan standing on a dead Legate would be cool. Why the tactical grope? Its like that old school super cheesecake trying to worm its way back out. I guess I get that. They must be a little frustrated. With greater popularity comes greater scrutany. They just wanted to have a dead gropy alien. They didn't wanna piss off players. But it kinda pisses me off.

I think they were just trying to make it cool and dramatic, with a dying enemy reaching up to her in a final display of defiance or something.

It was just executed incredibly badly, and the giant Umbra hands (which yeah, they've always had) certainly don't help.

Sure is. Pose is stupid too, but least that could be fixed. This is pure garbage.

The idea was to make it looks like the umbra still alive and fighting even after getting cut in half...looks fucking retarded as fuck in execution.

>old school super cheesecake trying to worm its way back out
Don't be stupid. That cheesecake will never leave (pilots, tech bee, etc etc), and god bless them for it.

Also I'm almost certain that they dont want to piss players off. What would be the point in that? I think they felt like they needed to do something special for an such an iconic character, and it had to be "epic". It obviously fell completely flat. It probably did piss people off because of how long it took to make this trash considering CB already had made her 3d sculpt for Giraldez's Painting book, and all they really had to do is to change the pose just a bit.

What did you say, punk?!

How can we fix it Veeky Forums?

> I want a new badass Joan miniature!

Lets' be honest with ourselves... Even if the tactical grope sucks, at least this monstrosity is finally getting retired.

Also I kinda wish I had LE Joan unpainted, I'd do a headswap with flowy hair Joan. And I put too much work into her to strip and repaint.

>First you throw that shit into the dumpster cad files and all.
>Stick to the dossier (hair, backpack, shoulder pads)
It was revealed long before the miniature, and it's what first drew people like myself to the new Joan - why change it?
>Pose without a super specific context
Saladin, Sun Tze, Miyamoto, the fucking book exclusive Joan, etc etc. They all work because they're not overly dramatic - unlike Kusanagi jumping backwards while shooting or Wulver vaulting over a jersey barrier everywhere he goes.
>Tactical Rocks are fine
As long as it's not interfering with the subject. In this case, it's literally grabbing back

That's like comparing two ugly bitches and being happy that at least the barely indistinguishably prettier one didnt give you AIDs

buying the limited edition joan instead and giving her a helmet

I said....
BIG MEATY PAWS!!!

WELL, THESE PAWS AIN'T JUST FOR GROPING KNIGHTS

The tactical grope received such a terrible feedback that I'm wondering if someone is going to lose his pay raise

Would that be difficult? How's the model cut?

I wondered which Grunt profile has a Light Shotgun. Turns out it's the same ones that have Heavy Flamethrowers.

I guess I already hate this guy.

Probably not, but it probably won't sell as well as it should. In their wisdom, CB doesn't resculpt things that already sell well (like JSA and MO starters), or resculpts if it doesnt (like ISS and Shock Army). So maybe CB will redo Joan to not look like shit if that's the case.

Honestly, I though she was going to be a 2-pack like miyamoto with a v1 and v2 mobility armor. That would've give us both options in 1 box and saved those precious SKUs.

No, the head is a separate piece; in fact the alternate head option for that new joan is the same piece as the the LE version which is pretty lazy to me. Also that alternate head's hair is blowing in the wrong direction

But all you'll need is the helmeted head.

>Light shotgun
But that spec-ops is holding a boarding shotgun.

Oh wow...Yeah tactical grope is way better than that hot garbage.

>But all you'll need is the helmeted head.
Getting an appropriately sized one might be difficult.

infinity knights are relatively chunky

Welp. Guess I have to use Molotok option instead. Wouldn't want to be WYSIWYG breaking WAAC -faggot.

It looks like a lot like a Nomad light shotgun. I didn't even know Ariadna one is a double-barrel.
It would actually make more sense for Ariadna BSG to be double-barrel, one for the shrapnel round and the other for AP. But I guess Light Shotties are Burst 2 as well.

Fuck off, those models aren't overly dramatic.

How is Bandit so based?

He's a smooth criminal.

If you don't have a medic and someone goes into dogged on your turn, is it pretty much a good idea to blow the rest of your orders on that model since they are going to for anyways?

>I didn't even know Ariadna one is a double-barrel.
I don't think it was redesigned or modeled until the new Volunteers. Previously it was a level-action.

Medic doesn't fix a model that chose to go dogged

Maybe by flipping the blade so its pointed at her sexual harasser. Also by switching the tranny Achilles head to Seibah's.

>Noticed the tactical grope right away.
>Apologists telling everyone "N-no no it's a-all cool m-man"
>Model is released.
>Looks like absolute trash.
Really wiggles the pickles.

>Also by switching the tranny Achilles head to Seibah's
I like her head desu

He looks like a dismounted Maverick.

Reminder that worthless, psychotic Teutonic sheep are not welcome in glorious secularist Varuna.

>WAHWAHWAAAAAH

Look user, just accept that sometimes peoples see things differently than yours.

Jeeze, tryhard haters are worse than apologist sometimes.

Yeah I mean like if I don't have a medic and I choose to go dogged.

>secular
I'm gonna go full animist on your ass, boy! Spirit time, yo!

Like always, depends on the exact situation. Blowing all orders on a single model is rarely worth it. Typically if you activate your dogged during your active turn you want to go aggressive, but more than a few orders is excessive. Often the trooper takes a hit and dies anyway.

Even if you have the best doctor, going dogged can be worth it if you're certain you don't get an opportunity to heal it and vice versa.

Sounds like a sunk cost fallacy. I don't see any reason to focus on them if they're not the most optimal model to use for your plans.

A girl has to do what she can to get by, neh?

>neh
Why is this so annoying?

>CB apologists
Literally half the thread is talking about how shit that model is Carlos you flaming faggot.

Go have another siesta and dream of another way you can pimp out your IP for some cappuccino shekels.

We all noticed the grope you idiot, and everyone said it was disappointing. There has been nothing but ambivalence and some open dislike for the model, though it is improved vastly by the Saberface head.

I think those oceans of yours are already salty enough without your own contribution m8.

Each time I find a CB miniaure disappointing, I remind myself about Games Workshop to feel better.

Jesus christ that's bad

She's a big girl.

Who is this carlos?

Okay, that is fucking badass. You have shit taste.

Its ass bad,you mean

Depends. With my Kum I wind up executing on a plan that I intended to execute on turn 2. Especially with chain rifles they can punch up like crazy

>model looks like trash

You just got into the hobby, haven't you?

I say what I mean, user. Your reading comprehension is as bad as your taste.

It's not because the hair doesn't flow with the clothing.

lmao you're gonna have to apply yourself chuckles.

>lmao you're gonna have to apply yourself chuckles.

Hey, stupid bitch. If you've actually been in the hobby then you have seen models that look like trash.

...

...

Based ORC is all of us.

>seething
So? That model is trash as well you cuckfag.

Once again, by you judging that model as trash then you prove you have not actually seen trash models.

...

That second panel makes the sergeant look like a woman.

Every time I read one of these, it fills me with joy.

Women can like women, Father-Knight.

Good articles don't care about gender.

Hmm, sounds sinful.

Tell me more.

lmao

join a debate club, you're really bad at this

I don't think the paint job is doing it any favors

Nah, it's shit and you're shit. And I'm not even him.

...

Do Asawira even need fireteam Core? You lose out on them being a ridiculous pain train but 4 of those bastards is definitely a caravan of pain.

>BTS 9

They were BTS 6 before Nomads started to porn hack.

>Do Asawira even need fireteam Core?
Not really, no.

>WYSIWYG in Infinity
Why? There's plenty of loadouts that still do not have models and the game requires enough implicit trust in your opponent that just having the appropriate model for the unit is enough, nobody here is counting through the grenades on the model's belts.

That looks pretty murrican, I thought there wasn't a murrican faction

Yeah, they are called USAriadna and they are fucking rad.

Wew, no giant robots though

Blackjack is pretty damn close.

They're a subfaction of Ariadna. No but they have the blackjack, which is pretty fuckin cool.

For you

WE

>giving your mechs giant combat knives
What a bunch of memers. I thought Ariadna was supposed to be the practical faction?

Giant knife is always useful for opening "cans"

> the practical faction

Where did you hear that?

She likes it in case of close encounters.

The other guns are super-long range iirc so its better to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it.

Aside from the SMG, chest mines and heavy pistol.

Giant machetes are useful sometimes but BJ has pretty much no reason to use that one.

In case of antipodes

see how I know you are trolling? Either that or you have completely lost perspective. Which amounts to really sad trolling.

Low tech does not mean practical. But it does imply it ill admit.

That's really dumpy lookin

Actually no, the LE head and this one is different.

Looks the same to me...unless I'm missing something.

I mean, he's already full of guns and explosives and he still had a free hand.

the bangs man, it is the bang that saberfy her. Without it joana is not joana.

...

cant do much about the quality, open it in an image viewer and zoomn in there to see the difference.

CB is rightfully punishing all the fools who don't have the LE one.

This looks like a paint job difference.

>The Avatar opened his claws to reveal first an empty palm, and then a diabolic CrazyKoala in the other. But before Angus could decide between “Trick or Treat”, the CrazyKoala jumped at his face.
kek

Stupid, only alien players will have an avatar. Most people won't even have a proper proxy, because tags suck.

Instead of doing stupid holyween stuff, they should write up some kazak sectorial rules.
I mean, I get that this maybe be part of a craze, when holloween is not a realy religious fest of going to graves and paying respects, when rain and cold wind beat your back.

Cry more faggot
