>3+ Genestealers
What kind of level of did I wake up to this morning?

>rumors indicate no major changes to nid warriors or nid prime
God damn it

Nth for anons saying everyone that disagrees with them is shit at the game despite not even owning an army themselves :^)

Choose my army. Nids or Genestealer Cultists? Sub faction?

Marines

Post spooky 40k stuff!

Their guns got cheaper for one thing

GSC, Jordmanguturgeurghe however its spelled

Thats nothing compared to some of the anti-psyker shit going on.

Nids! With lots of termaguants!

I'm kinda glad I didn't jump on nids back in 5th when the Trygon box was released. I love the underground swarm idea and always have, a f it seems like that's the waac choice now. At least Jorg is.

Alpha legion Space marines disguised as gene stealers

With cultists you could expand later on with nid or guard.

>people declaring what the WAAC choice is
>before the codex or FAQs even release
It's guard all over again

Will GW fix autarchs?

all the time we put into this hobby is a waste and we will all die one day regretting all that time wasted.

>tfw gw doesn't give your army love.

Jorm is not the WAAC choice necessarily, that remains to be determined. It's definitely one of the better ones though.

>a waste to engage in something that helps me center mentally and allows me to engage in my otherwise stressful life effectively

nah

they already have!

Run a Matriarch using a pregnant model
Make it a breeder cult

user I was asking for like spooky skeletons
Not stuff that hits too close to home

Not him, but I'm a nidfag and even I can admit that jorg and kronos will definitely be popular with WAACfags.
That shouldn't stop someone from playing them, but to be unaware or denial about it helps nobody

having to waste time pushing little toys across a table instead of being healthy and productive.

fuck man, thats worse.

>
I'm ready. Preach it, sisters !

>Play Night Lords
>no primarch or special units
>not a cult legion
>moral is worthless
>mfw

Nids, Jormungandr splinter fleet.

>implying pushing little toys across the table doesn't keep me healthy and productive

Not butthurt, just enjoying the fact that I'm right and want to remind you of that :^)

>Exorcist can not transport model
>but they should
Also they should have indirect fire to justify the 160 points

i might be good again!

Stop this.

What do you mean by this

Now that flyers are just -1 to hit in 8e.
Would it be an asshole move to make a Phantine Airguard army that invests the majority of its points into Thunderbolts, say 5 of them?

No!
You will like it!

All in all, sounds like Nids are getting treated about the same as admech. No major changes save for some point cost reduction.

>talk to a guy on an anonmouyse image board dedicated to playing a game for hours
>somehow believe that someone doesn't have models for said game


Stop user, i can only take so much of your autism,

>No major changes
So many fucking options though.

Both, GSC with tyranid allies.
Behemoid undercult/Behemoth

Praise the undying Saint Old One Eye.

Still looking for an idea for the intoxicating elixir for my termylord.

So far the winner is that busty model with some booze bottles on her

except for biomorphs, "new" units, some major changes on units like tyrants, major changes to wargear like the rupture cannon.
So not at all the same really

you might want to read up on some of their leaks.

Warp talons and raptors are sorta your cult units, but you're right, leadership isn't as useless as last edition but it's pretty shit
I even had a friend claim NL were the best legion after alpha legion, I told him to bring the best he had and I'd bring my normal list, the LD drops caused 50 pts of a 2000 pt list to run away that wouldn't have already
>Entire conscript unit of 30 wiped but 3 guys
>they scream in agony as thier minds shatter from the sheer fear they feel
>commissar blows ones memories of childhood on the other and they decide to stay and fight the 8 ft tall guys with chainsaw swords

have fun being tabled when the enemy kills your ground forces

>No major changes
>completely reworked weapon stats
>statline buffs
>alteration of synapse and IB
>fuckton of new biomorphs and upgrades
>new special rules on a lot of things

What did he mean by this

All flyer armies used to be op, now that they don't count as being on the table for tabling matters and can't score objectives they are still good, I'd absolutely love to fight 5 thunderbolts and see what 20 missiles, 10 lascannons, and 40 autocannons shots does to my army's anus

Is this too much noise?

I really like the unit, but I don't know if I am relying too heavy on noise marines here

Not him but you'd be very surprised how many people on here mention how they haven't played since 5th, just like to collect, haven't played in a year, and stuff like that when asked
I'd honestly say it's a 50/50 split

theres a difference between haven't played and not owning a model, though.

but i've been stringing this autist for half a thread already.

The burden of proof is solidly on him, doesn't it seem a little suspicious he talks all this shit about how everyone on Veeky Forums sucks at 40k then won't even show his army which isn't even the one he was shit talking about?

Lore leak from the new nids book, Hive Fleet Kronos was adapted to counter the Rift and is an anti-Chaos specialist fleet that fucks daemons, thus the focus on shooting over melee and anti-psyker abilities.

>The burden of proof is solidly on him,
But what claims are being made?

I safely assume that someone posting here has models- it's a given, but I expect proof when someone makes a claim that someone does not have them.

>The burden of proof is solidly on him.

This is why he thinks you have autism, he can look at his models as he types and laugh at you.

>be the most technologically advanced civilization in the lore
>have the weakest shooting for a shooting focused army in the game

How does GW fix this ? Is it even possible at this point ? Crons are great at mowing down footslogged MEQ/TEQ but nobody plays that shit. They have no great answers to heavy armors and hordes which are the meta armies right now.
Maybe doubling the shots from tesla weapons and dropping H.Destroyers by 25pts a piece ? IDK.
What are your expectations for the Necron codex ?

Still waiting to see that army user
All you have to do is show one model and you can't even do that
You've already shown you didn't know what the you were talking about with tyranids but I want to prove you don't even play at all, I'm basically taking a victory lap already :^)

So basically its cool, but I should focus what ground forces I do have on not dieing?
Was originally thinking just some scions that could have grav chuted in, but perhaps I'll need something tougher?

Maybe they munched on a bunch of ordos malleus somewhere along the line.

lol, stop dude this is getting sad.

take advice.

Noise marines are not that great to begin with actually. If you want to run ECs you want Obliterators, plasma chosen and Havocs to abuse the "shoot twice" stratagem.

He could if he had any models
Besides he already proved himself a liar when he acted like he had top table intellect about a faction and then admitted to not even playing them, im just driving the point home by proving he doesn't even play 40k

Nids didn't get a complete overhaul like SM or buffed to the point of brokenness (kinda) like guard.

AdMech just got a few stat changes but was otherwise ignored. Odds are we're going to be in the bottom tier with necrons and possibly orks. Enjoy the buff man, but don't forget where you came from.

>no nid preview yet
>literally shaking
I know seeg "leaked" shit, but cmon

Alphariusssssss

I thought from the thumbnail that I was looking at a baby carnifex being held up as it walks for the first time.
Think I need some coffee.

>"t-this is getting sad!"
>knows he doesn't have a leg or model to stand on
It's getting sad for one of us that's true :^)

>Nids didn't get a complete overhaul like SM or buffed to the point of brokenness (kinda) like guard.
Are you even reading these fucking leaks, dude.

>What are your expectations for the Necron codex?
Tears. One way or another.

They're not too bad as is, with even the runtiest warrior hitting on 3+, and -1 rending on their base weapon, but I agree that there's something missing. I think tesla is already vastly improved over 7th, but maybe assault 3 would let it shine.

the face of autism, i almost feel inclined to post a photo, but i kinda like watching you spin out.

Fucking this. I even modeled my own genestealers so that some of them are coming out of their bases. Also, I wanted to buy some raveners, but they sucked until now.

Say hello to me, Raveners/stealers underground attack !

I have been, Nids are getting some good shit but they aren't getting the space marine treatment like I kinda hoped for.

Never heard of him

>space marine treatment
You mean having the most garbage and bland codex???

Nids are getting the Eldar treatment.

>"y-you're just so funny to laugh at!"
>nervously waits for me to go away so he doesn't have to admit he doesn't own any models
user I promise I'll keep posting if you post your models, so go ahead, I'm sure they're real :^)

i'd rather just keep you sperging for as long as i can.

>Old tyrant model
GW, you know what's left to do.

GW where the hell is the preview article

>be guard player
>have my weekly match vs a Tau player
>super close game, win out with superior tactics and get a concession by turn 5
>lots of fun
>realize hours later that I forgot to deploy my hellhounds and won with a 360-point handicap
>MFW

We were playing at 2000. Should I give him 350 points next week to keep it close?

>a war band from the alpha legion that got so into psychic fuckery and disguises after 10,000 years that they all forgot who the real alpharius is so they all think they are alpharius for real
Can someone do this?

Yes, at least while he's still playing with index rules.

I feel like that should be a general standard for index vs codex.

Probably in 15 minutes like yesterday

...

Oh come on, its fun watching someone melt down over an internet rando not posting a picture of his models.

Well yeah it's called playing alpha legion.

It'll be an hour later today, we've moved on Daylight Savings

Oh dammit

The problem doesn't come from Warriors. The problem is that Crons' anti armor is way overcosted and clunky and that they have no option to deal with large units. Sure they can melt a terminator squad with their basic troop choice at rapid fire range but what good is it if A : nobody fields those units and B: you still lose to any other shit out there.

Dubs of truth.
It can't be denied. No matter how much it hurts.

So you're basically saying you're never going to post your non existant models? Then it sounds like you've proven me right, your army doesn't exist and you're just a pathetic poser pretending to know more than everyone else here about 40k when you don't even own an army, go ahead and prove me wrong, but I know you can't :^)

Pretty much, especially when he's demanding it because he already lost an argument and this is just grasping at straws.

You mean 350 points or a percentage (about 17.5%)?

So a 1000 point game would be about 1180 for the index player, a 1500 would be 1770, a 2000 would of course be 2360, and 2500 would be 2950.

...

Alpha legion are like Anonymous, they think they're all working together in a game of 4d chess but actually they're disparate bands out creating their own objectives with no agreed stratergy. That's why they love crusades so much, it gives them a chance to use their skills for a reason. Until they get bored or frustrated, then they break off and do their own thing again

By removing all of their wargear options they are now fixed!

I want to paint my Scions up as Fallschimjager. Anyone got any guides on how to do this?

>Avatar, Autarch, and Rangers in an Alaitoc Battalion detachment
>everything else in an Iyanden detachment
>custom craftworld so everything is painted the same

Are you doing anything related to Halloween for 40k this year- like a themed match or something?
Don't open this by the way.

This is basically it, necrons are very very good at one niche and that's it
If you're running an elite footslogging marine army that comes towards you ( Khorne berserkers played by a retard?) you will absolutely melt them down and be very points efficient
If you face anything else be prepared to feel like you're given half the tools even index players have
Honestly I'm close to selling my necrons and picking up dark Eldar as my Xenos army

Nah don't tell him user. He will just come here and bitch even more about Guardfags.

Why dont crons have a flamer equivalent?
