What are you hoping for Chapter Approved?

Templates

my dudes > your dudes

Looted wagons

Nerfs to Primarchs and Special Characters in general

Buffs to flamers and rules to create your own vehicles.

Jokes on you we play the same dudes

Do IG put their regiment badges on their shoulders like Marines? What do guard players paint onto their IG for squad markings or badges?

>Make template obsolete
>Everyone throw theirs away
>6 months later reintroduce NEW and IMPROVED template for 8th edition.
>Diameter is 3.5" and 6"
genius!

So how is he gonna feel about the current state of the Imperium when he wakes up?

I literally just threw mine away like a week ago.

It's dead, Jim.
They may improve artillery weapons however. "+1d3 shots for every 5 people over the 5 first in the unit", something like that.

Fix GK.

Like almost any question about such details in 40k, it varies place by place

Giving wargear options back for Priests, access back for axes because it is butts for people who converted shit in 6th and 7th, and in the index era to suddenly lose options that in many cases you had for years because of GW's new found autism of "Codex's only support models that we still sell" while supporting models that they don't sell in oh so many places.

>Glares at IG Shotguns
>Glares at IG Autoguns

I fucking have Veterans with shotguns and it bugs me.

I am curious as to his reaction to RG having become defacto Emperor after all the shit that happened during Imperium Secundus between them.

Making melee better. It won't though.

Special rules, specially for blast weapons, I would rather have a single shoots that causes multiple impacts in the unit than rolling for each shot.

He'll secede
Unforgiven will be a faction of loyalists-but-not-too-Chaosy

What ever happen to the weapons Sanguinius used during the Great cruasde? I know that his spear was taken by some guy impersonating him but what about the sword you see in the pictures?

Does anyone have the Rise of the Ynnari: Ghost Warrior Epub?

xD3 is basically that. There should be more of them as well, given that each D3 is at least one, maybe even move to xD2 for high consistency.

He will suck Guilli's cock after he becomes the new Warmaster of a large Crusade.

I believe they're in his tomb buried with him.

Idiot, how are you going to play shadow war Armageddon without it?

>He plays Specialist games

>It's not even a specialist game.

What would happen if the Nids managed to take the tomb?

Me, too, friend.

Well user think of it this way. Storm Bolters are better than Flamers.

because its a dead game

I hope he calls out Robby G for his hypocritical stance on the 1000 marine limit, his obvious bias towards the Ultramar system, his chapter ruling over more than one world, the close connection his First Founding Chapter has with their successors, and the simple fact that Roboute is pretty much a Warmaster in all but name similar to Horus that he often claimed condemned the Imperium. Also, that he's turning religious and almost believes the Emperor is divine. The Lion should kill all the religious people in the Imperium, as the Emperor intended and once applied.

How will BL screw it up?

BS3+ OR a serious reduction in points for Crisis Suit Teams.

At least you didn't have IG with combi-weapons and storm bolters, laspistol & CCW vets, etc. IG options have always been like gender on college campus.

They put Sanguinius into a coma instead of killing him. They take away the cool guy who stands up to Horus and gets absolutely BTFO.

>They take away the cool guy who stands up to Horus and gets absolutely BTFO
They already took him away and made him immortal.

I don't even remember combi-weapons being a thing for IG. Good god that would make me salty.

Whether or not it has a chunk of tau rebalancing will determine if the codex is early 2018 or not

Smite spam nerf. Other ways to get CP.

He's dead according to Gav Thrope so not a lot.

That seems like a waste. Could they not give it to Dante or something? No wonder Nids fucked them.

Why is it that FFG managed to write a better version of this story and actually keep some of the mystique of the HH, something the BL writers seem to have missed the point on entirely.

>tfw 3e was 47 years ago.

It's hard to write a 500 book series and keep some things mysterious.

>keep some of the mystique of the HH

That flew out the door the moment they decided to write a 194 volume epic detailing every facet of the Heresy and all the people involved with it.

That right there is Heresy. Now let's talk about Heresy. Can we talk about Heresy, please, Roboute? I've been dying to talk about Heresy with you all millennium, OK? “Omegon,” this name keeps coming up over and over again. Every day Omegon’s superluminal communications are getting sent back to me. Omegon! Omegon! I look in communications log, and this whole box is Omegon! So I say to myself, "I gotta find this guy! I gotta go up to his Fortress-Monastery and put his superluminal communications in the guy's goddamn hands! Otherwise, he's never going to get it and he's going to keep coming back down here." So I go up to Omegons Fortress-Monastery and what do I find out, Roboute? What do I find out?! There is no Omegon. The man does not exist, okay? So I decide, "Oh shit, buddy, I gotta dig a little deeper." There's no Omegon? You gotta be kidding me! I got boxes full of Omegon! All right. So I start marchin' my way down to Aldus Col in the Adeptus Astra Telepathica and I knock on his door and I say, "Aldus Col! Aldus Col! I gotta talk to you about Omegon.” And when I open the door what do I find? There's not a single goddamn psyker in that office! There...is...no...Aldus Col in the Adeptus Astra Telepathica. Roboute, half the employees on Terra have been made up. This Imperium is a goddamn ghost town.

Fellow Nidfags.

Here i am trying to come up with interesting armies, just to find out i should still spam more genestealers.

How about not covering something that didn't need to be covered in the first place.

Yeah I know they just couldn't resist.

Need help figuring out what unit I should add with the remainder of my points. Any ideas?

Hemlock

So i just checked it out on Lexicanum and it seems that it was given by Sanguinius himself to the first chapter master of Blood Angles, Belarius. He then managed to lose it to an Ork warboss, He was then exiled till he found the sword. He and some other exiled marines follow the Ork Fleet to find out that the Warboss is a host for a Tzeentch Daemon. He then follows the Daemons Traitor Marine Allies into the Eye of terror to get the sword. He gets it but manages to lose his soul in the process. The last 2 remaining Exiles return the sword to Dante but refused to rejoin the chapter and go to try and Free Belarius's Soul from Tzeentch.

>they just couldn't resist

When you have people screaming for more with fistfuls of cash in the air, and they don't care about the quality enough to stop buying... John "Games" Workshop got kids to feed, man.

Thats 200pts.

Give me some AP on my damn Metamorphs. As it stands there is no reason to use anything other than their rending claws. Which makes them overpriced genestealers.

What are they up too?

Bloodquest was a good comic if silly at times

no but i hear there's a mexican stand off between the visarch and yvanine

Latest HH book already has Sanguinius knowing he's going to die before Horus but nonetheless deciding to confront him to try and convince him to stop being a fag.

nah, I'm glad the HH is a story being told. It's the most discussed thing in 40k and the primarchs are the most discussed characters.

That is literally how its always been. I dont think that was a change. Its one of my favorite parts of Sanguinius's character. Unlike a certain other person who could see the future who just became a total pussy afterwards.

Veeky Forums How do you build lists? Do you do it before you buy the models, or do you build what you want, and see what sticks?

I'm currently having a problem with wanting to keep with an army theme and the units I really wanna bring, but not knowing how to both make it fun and competitive at the same time.

om nom nom

>tfw you unironically enjoy the HH series for the most part

Fight me, I agree with pic related

Are acid maws free for genestealers?

Generally I find something I like fluffwise in the army and build an army around that then start collecting models. Sometimes I will pick up a model I just like the looks up, but, generally it is due to I already know it is something I want to build around due to I like how it looks.

in the past it was never clear he knew he was going to die (i.e. having visions of it).

In Ruinstorm a daemon straight up tells him if he tries to confront horus he'll die but can save his legion from the black rage, or not confront horus but his legion will be saved from it. There's a whole vision of his death on the vengeful spirit and everything. Sangy still chooses to go to Terra and Guilliman/Lion are on board too and cover his path

Anyone have any idea how much a Carnifex with 2 devourers w/ worms, +1 BS, and the -1 to hit carapace will cost in the new codex? Just want to know how viable it would be spam those in a semi-fun list.

infested sang?

115pts

This works better than it should.

I really need to pick up Fear to Tread. I really wanna know what happens on Signus Prime and that looks like the book for it.

you buy one for every 6 genestealers i think
???

>he'll die but can save his legion from the black rage, or not confront horus but his legion will be saved from it.
What?

For every 4 genestealers you can take essentially a power sword for free.

DBZ fight between sangy and a bloodthirster

if nids nom sangy's tomb
will they make primarchfexes?

>Imperial guard with combi weapon sergeants
>ALL THE COMBI PLASMA
>Every guard squad now has 2 plasma, vets have 4

We cannot be trusted with this kind of power, I would abuse the shit out of that if it was an option in this day and age

I know that much, I wonder how often Ka'Bandha gets reprimanded for not being able to kill off the Blood Angels. First he gets his spine broke over Sangdaddy's knee and then he gets dropped from the atmosphere by the Sanguinior and explodes into a mass of gore.

Eldar are the best race in 40k.

Fuck Chaos.

its been 10,000 years man

Vets would be Combi Plasma with 3 Plasmas, Combi Flamer with 2 Flamers and a Heavy Flamer and the rest with shotguns, finally Combi Melta with 3 meltas. It would be glorious.

The other day an user posted a compilation of Nid points costs, anyone have that?

Actually, the way vets are worded now, there is nothing stopping you from taking a heavy flamer in addition to 3 special weapons. So you could have combi-flamer, 3 flamers AND a heavy flamer.

I would then have to buy another dude to do that is my main use with that, but, yes, more fire, more tunnel rats!

>Bloodquest was a good comic if silly at times
It also seems to be the only cannon knowledge of what happened to Sanguinius's sword.

>What would happen if the Nids managed to take the tomb?
You know full well what would happen

That's very generous.
At best the better books are a decent read. There is really nothing great in there.

Wait, Nemesis is good?
I've got it from the library currently, but was considering returning it unread as it looks like trash.

>47
Tell me about the future, user. Do you have flying cars? Did GW reintroduced templates in the 11th edition? Did tjeh resurrect Sanguinus? Can you give me the winning numbers of the lottery?

inquisitors not making a army lose its special regiment or chapter rules like other special characters dont

I want this with Assassins as well.

Have the one i just updated

A guy on Tyranid Hive also adjusted the points of the battlescribe file for 8th. It doesn't have the rules but it does the job till the book is out.

Well now I don't know what to think

I have to wonder how he keeps turning up. You'd think Khorne would have relegated him to keeping the Nurglings out the Two Handed Axes (Leather Grip, No Chains, Medium Skull Content) chamber by now.

Why do they always get the good boxes?

If only i forsaw this problem and added a version number next to the header!

;_;

Oh nice, cheaper Raveners with Spinefists, that is going to make my list have 24 more points to play with on top of figuring out what to do with the hole of possibly dropping both Tervigons.

Any thoughts on this Ynnari list ?

HQ
Yvraine
Farseer on jetbike

Troops
5 X 5 Corsair skyreavers (jetpacks) w/ lasblasters and pistols

Elites
2x 10 hekatrix blood rides with hydra gauntlets
1x wraithblades with ghost swords

Fast attack
2x 5 scourges w/ 4 dark lances each

Transport
2 X raiders with lances (for wyches)
1 X wave serpent ( Yvraine and wraithguard)

Well he recently BTFO some nids and Blood Angels on Baal Prime. That had to earn him some brownie points.
