Eldar are supreme

second for btiching about an extra 4 inches

Smol bugs best bugs

#th for Necron power creep when codex drops

Stop comparing yourself to your ex's new BF, user

I want to buy some new brushes as my current ones are quite old and shit. Anyone have any suggestions? I'd rather not buy Citadel as they seem kinda overpriced for the quality.

I look at you all
See the death there that's creeping
While Maugetar gently reaps
I look at the floor
See the corpses are heaping
Still Maugetar gently reaps

OFFICIAL CODEX TIER LIST

discuss.

All bugs are beautiful.

Except the fucking dimachaeron. That abortion needs killed with fire.

Winsor & Newton series 7.
pricey but worth it

Alright guys, maybe I was just salty of all the other unique stuff the other codecies got while admech got a copy and paste. So how do I build a tactically sound Admech list?

Windsor newton.

-ly delicious.

Negative to-hit modifiers are breaking 8th and making Orks real fired up!

>Lictors
>Being used by anyone
Hahahahaha

INBF mob rule and WAAAGH!!! lets orks get bonuses to hit.

I think in the grand scheme of things guard are still on top over all.

>That tiny little scythe

Damn, are lictors bad?

I kinda wanted to make the Nid army my 10 year old self always wanted back in 3rd, so mostly avoiding newer things.

>tfw play GKs and Nids
>tfw one army at the top and one army at the bottom
Huh.
I guess it does balance out after all.
Now I wonder where my Bobby-less Marines ft in....

A good Eldar player losing to a Tyranid player. Topkek.

Reminder to ignore and avoid playing Trannynid players this edition.

The cries of your death satiate our thirst to end your filthy race

>He hasn't read their new strategum

It's a gun with an artsy bayonet.

Meanwhile Morty unironically brought farming equipment to a war.

wow rude

Personally a fan of the nickname Feminids

I don't play cringe worthy ww2 autism.

>1d4chan's first day on Veeky Forums

>Can't even fuck enough to maintain a population
>Thinks they stand a chance against the endless swarm

Think Alpha Legion's Forward Operatives.

Its bullshit desu. Their psychic should be massively buffed. Regular dudes' smite should be increased in range. I hope TS are not their level of bad...

haven't played since 5th lmao, just getting back into the hobby

That sounds like female Nid players which there aren't any. It's just trannies.

>tfw tyranids have always been the most diverse and inclusive faction

Any fellow DEldar players hyped to be the hard counter to WAAC 'nid lists?

>He doesnt even have pointy ears for maximum hearing efficiency
What are you, gay?

Turns them into a deathleaper. Beginning of movement, may be placed within 1" of an enemy unit. May fall back, shoot, and charge.

Shit, didn't mean to reply

>salty guardfag shitposting about tyranids
Who knew Robin Cruddace was a /40kg/ regular?

Filthy tyranid hordes cannot stop my concealed alaitoc hemlock wraithfighter

Can we get loud yet?

THINGS WILL GET LOUD NOW

Not until you get a codex and new plastics in 2025.

>Having vulnerable exterior ears
>Not having ultra-fertile females that birth dozens of offspring hours after copulation multiple time a day
Do you even adapt, bro?

Of course I can.
I'll just charge it with my 2+ to hit flyrants

Honestly, it's far more doable for Mortarion.
He's taller than everyone so using scythe as if he's harvesting is pretty effective.

THIS SILENCE OFFENDS SLAANESH

Are you calling traps trannies?

Is that a generous estimate?

Not really, I am just hyped that the changes to 8th make Deldar actually playable at all.

I am really worried about how and will work though.

This saddens me

>not having your ears on your neck and gills set into holes on the side of your head
ishygddt

Traps are wannabe trannies. You ever notice how many traps end up transitioning a couple of years later? Also they love Nids because pregnancy fetish because they can't get preggers themselves.

...

Why would that be useful? Didn't they already DS, or is that now removed?

I am sorry sad user. I didnt mean to make you cry. Would you like a hug or a tug?

They better give our units rules to ignore shooting penalties, we are the true gotta go fast eldars, also ap-4 huskblade because we don't have fucking powerfists

Can't wait!

I did my best to make my 'ard as nails samurai elves

I'd like to tweak it to be as SAMURAI as possible, which I guess would probably mean dropping the prisms, but I'm not sure what to add. The Banshees seem pretty good for webway strike, since Acrobatic pretty much makes them a sure chance to hit melee, and eithout buffs they can eat a small Devastator squad, with buffs they can chew up larger threats and clear out hordes?

I plan to throw away my CP early and often on things like Supreme Disdain, Lightning-Fast Reactions, and Linked Fire, so the Autarch is to try and mitigate that, with Rangers (guardians would work better aesthetically, maybe? Eldar dont seem big on long-ranged infantry) as a nobunaga riflemen sort of deal to get me a Battalion. I'd like more Banshees or Storm Guardians, but Storm Guardians seem like theyre the opposite of 'ard as nails samurai

>Implying Tyranids are op
Neck yourself

Latest tweak to my NM army, any thoughts?

Have 4th game ever tomorrow.

Game 1, got obliterated by two LRs, so I added meltas/fists to the terminator squad.

Game 2, I alphad a knight warden on my first turn and opponent rage quit. Success?

Game 3, a good game against a tau player, he got completely obliterated because all of my NM units were great against his army of infantry in cover.

Are you high? He's implying the opposite.

yes

but i didn't?

682 points baby

>Pretending Trannynids aren't op so you can still have an excuse for losing

>akkoposter is dumb
Never a surprise

...

Are any of the new bugs (Maleceptor/Toxicrene) worth? I stopped buying Nids after the 7th book and the stuff that was released after that is basically the only stuff I don't have.

I would like a fug

how do we play blood angels

Well, at least you make our waifu proud.

Well, he is an akko poster objectively worst girl, best girl is pic related

What is this meme anyway?

Is one of you from Germany? If so, did you and the other German user fuck eventually?

I prefer Barbara but you have great taste user

Will Lictors be good?

Seriously just stop giving them paper armor and aluminum claws and they'll be worth taking

Its no meme.
Its war

Would you rather be fucked in the arse with a 1" wide strapon or a 5" wide strapon?

/a/ and /pol/ please leave we're trying to have serious discussions about which kind of plastic army men have the best rules in a game about fictional battles that is predicated on the rolling of dice

What is the silliest "rule lawyering" argument you have come across? Pic related: The debate was whether an Ultramarine could roll dice to refund CP for the "Chapter Relics" stratagem.

F-Five inch

>/a/ please go
>He says while posting on an anime imageboard

Do we know what Kronus, Jormungandr and Hydra's schemes are yet?

...

Hydra is dull gray greens, Jormungandr is BEEEEEEES

Ah, my favorite thought experiment: Schrodinger's Space Marine Captain

Are you doing anything 40k related for Halloween? Costumes, game modes on the table, or maybe paintings/conversions?

Reminds me of the old "is a model in a transport 'on the table' or not," which I believe went back and forth through the editions.

Still, I'll give my vote for either 3e Necron Monolith gaining +1 shot on the Gauss Arc Flux per Weapon Destroyed result, or the 4e model can't fire a pistol and charge, if he's carrying a bolter.

...

Read their new strategum you mong.

Nah, spent a couple hours hollowing out pumpkins to carve and have to hand out candy tomorrow, so I probably won't have time

People still hollow out pumpkins?

Daily reminder that 1 Zoanthrope > 1 Craftworld.
