i have completely missed any tyranid leaks, shouldnt there be something official already because if i recall right next month is nids.

First for why does GW seem to hate the Blood Angels.

Warhammer 40k reply:

Hi Zerdon, thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts with us. We're always looking to expand and develop our ranges and we will pass your feedback on to our development teams.

Did the mods just nuke an entire /40kg/?

Not enough Sanguinalia themed armies. Paint your models with green pants and GW will like you more.

Yeah, they all get to re-roll morale while in synapse now. Very fluffy.

Yeap.

next week will start community posts like the eldar. with the youtube people spoiling the codex that weekend.

And now this question is stretched across THREE threads. Oh well.

Have a paintjob.

Best primarch, best legion

how does one go about finding chinamen? Not asking for the emails per se, but is there any tactic going about this?

Wrong on both accounts.

Tau melee is pretty cool.

Ask GW, they might help you find them.

nice try, GW!

FUG. forgot to link.

If he's going to be a new addition to your army and you're intending to use it in more games than just the one against a Thousand Sons player, then it's fine. If you're just using it against him, then you're kind of a gay.

i knew it was bad, but not that bad. lol

Well you can find out if the opponent's a WAACfag real easily if he demands you take the anti-psyker out of your list.

Fellas please...

Mortarion is:
>Literally autistic
>Strong and cool
>mysterious

It didn't seem any worse than normal, so I was very confused. I've seen these generals get way out of hand and they never get nuked.

They would be great if they weren't total dicks to the rest of Chaos bros. As it is, they are kind of low tier along with Fulgrim's pretty boys.

What did Mortarion do again???

I've had him for months but I don't usually bring assassins. The main reason it occurred to be was because it's fluffy to throw a Mindfucker against a psyker heavy army.

So I'm not a waacfag to include it? I always show my list before deployment.

The mods are slow to wake but when they do they mean business.

>Warhammer 40k general
>half of the thread isn't even remotely about warhammer or 40k
>wonder why it got deleted
Every time

Tips on building an all-Wraith Eldar force?

Who knows, but ADB needs to do a book on him, reflect the fact that Mortarion has had 2 dads in his life and how hating both affected him.

I don't think modularity is something GW is aiming at.

you act like it isn't the normal for this general

Don't

>literally called out by his own son
>still in denial about everything
He is right down there with Pert.

Those two things are covered by the 'literally autistic' section.

Must be nice to live on the equator

>2017
>still no platic Sisters

Mort is the perfect primarch for him.

Look, user, people will call you a WAACfag if they feel they can't win. It's completely hypocritical and should not be tolerated.

Nice.

Just bought my first Elysians. What am I in for?

Whats a decent loadout for CSM squads in terms of heavy/special weapons?

He has 3 dads, you're forgetting nurgle. who he also hates.

Well you already bought from FW the the worst part is already over.

Pain and suffering

Enjoying all that sorcery you can do now you're a being made of warp energy in the immaterium Mort?

Its hot and humid. Occasionally very wet.

Obviously, the question is should I do it because it's fluffy or should i do it contingent on it being necessary for an even match, like say if he brings Magnus?

mold lines

Does Morty have the biggest of daddy issues of the traitor primarchs?

...

Angry haters and spilt nades. You could just play them as scions in valkaries but you'll get the same thing.

Are flamers really that bad?

Is that why my wallet is currently trying to strangle me?

How so?

2 specialist weapons + a combi of the same so you don't have to deal with the -1 to hit for your heavy weapon.

Holocaust denial.

>Is that why my wallet is currently trying to strangle me?
Just be thankful you didn't choose death korps.

by volume, at the very least. I think magnus or horus has him beat via intensity.

It bothers me that you never used him before and only now decided it would be "fluffy" to use him. Thing about fluffy is that list tailoring is fluffy. It's not often armies go in totally blind, they have recon and intelligence, they have an idea of what they are fighting. Fluffy or not, people frown upon list tailoring.

Personally I would just put him in the list, who cares what other people think.

I like spamming plasma. Melta is prohibitively expensive and plasma fits in nicely with bolter ranges. Also primaris marines absolutely HATE plasma.

Range so short to where you won't even get overwatch consistently and like most AoE type weapons, not enough damage on hordes

>CSM squads
MSU with a heavy and combi weapon on champion

remember when people said we were getting them this year

If he brings magnus all limits are off the table, spam shadowswords and ogryns at that point.

> primaris marines absolutely HATE plasma.


I'm pretty sure everything hates being shot by plasma, this edition.

Let's see if this develops into something or they will just shit all over it.

They are total dicks to the rest of Chaos because they haven't drank the Chaos Koolaide and merely use Chaos as a weapon rather than worshiping it. That's part of why they are the worst legion to be captured by, because of how horrifyingly efficient they are due to their cold pragmatism.

WRONG. ALL WRONG.

Can confirm put plasma on my CSM Termies and everyone hates me.

...

>He is right down there with Pert.

Add in the Lion and you have the perfect Chaos trinity of autism.

What was the original plan for him, any speculation on that?

Fragile expensive resin sculpts

Wondering how to keep army theme when half your force is required to start on the table.

I've been hearing that for 15 years! Doesn't matter anymore since I have a nice sizable army of metal nuns with guns... would still be nice though.

Agricultural

"Plastic SoB soon" have been a thing since 2nd edition.

Any SoBfag that actually plays knows 40k is going to die before they get plastic models worth a damn

...

>That pic
>One chainaxe handle is literally under the teeth of the other
This triggers me. I feel like this idiot is going to cut his own shit in half. I feel like all those /k/holes who flip out over improper trigger discipline.

He was going to one day lead the Fire Nation but then the Emperor stole his honour.

So how do commissars work now?

nothing special, just the normal Pol Vs SJW death spiral.

I've used him before, just not vs Psykers. I haven't gotten the opportunity, there's a lot of Tau about lately.

You mean Bullgryns, presumably.

Decently

After they graduate from schola they are usually assigned.

>Lion
>Chaos

Only worth it on units with high mobility that can take a lot of them to mitigate the randomness of the amount of hits.
Just like meltaguns : the short range means that unless you roll that 6 having a single one in a unit is never gonna pay off.

For 10 Guardsmen or veteran squad they are a bad idea. For everyone else nothing really change in the long run. Just less broken

Maybe we'll get them next year...

Similar to the role he already had, just less insane.

If you fail a morale test, they shoot 1 model, then you re-roll. They are still nice, but no longer giving out iron will like before. I like having a Commissar Lord or Inquisitor because I play Catachan so the +1 Leadership near officers helps a lot, making my mens Leadership 10. Sometimes I put in Greyfax too so they are Leadership 11.

Chaos worshipping retards don't really deserve mercy. Chaos is either something to be purged or used as a weapon, that's why the IW and NL are the greatest of the traitor legions

...

Should I not be putting flamers on all six of my guard squads as clown repellent?

Unless you play SoB when a squad of 5 girls can run 3. Or the fast attack choice can run 4 and fly or 5 and have 36"+D6 threat range

But they are the expection

You don't get ld 10. Catachan's either use their own ld of 7+1 if they're near an officer, or they use the commissar lord's leadership of 9.

They're alright to keep smaller units in line, but huge units that take a lot of casualties will still get fucked by morale.
As it should be, one commissar can only scare so many dudes into being courageous

>"MY OWN CLONE!"

Summary Execution is essentially a tax, you buy them.for the leadership buff.

Commissars will break even in points if you have themnwatch conscripts and are lousy anywhere else. In catachan and mordian detachments they're even worse.

Lord commissars will save you men even if you make them watch Infantry Squads but they will never break even on their points.

At this point they are wholly replaceable with Commissariat Tanks or allied Inquisitors.

>not pol circle jerking with a false flag around its own disgusting dick

Because only low IQ waifufags care about the slutty space nuns in armour, and waifufags ruin everything

I just tuned in and missed the drama? Was it traps again? It was traps again.
How often do you guys play 40k? I try to weekly but sometimes it doesn't pan out.

>Summary Execution is essentially a tax
Only to blobs
