Warhammer 40,000 General /40kg/

Necrons are the worst in all those categories.

Wow, rude.

nids are supposed to be getting their codex soon, so I would wait until it comes out and go for them. Most of the armies with codicies have been more competitive.

They are also easy to paint and can be made to look good relatively easily.

>nids are supposed to be getting their codex soon
It's already on pre-order and basically all the info is leaked.

That is a fucking awesome costume.
I'm not he, and I also think the Deathshroud are shit, but they are 100% NOT for Mortarion. They're way too slow to keep up with his 12", and their main ability explicitly excludes Morty, Deathshroud are exactly what the lore sells them as, Morty's eyes and ears. If you are hellbent on using them, have them guard your weaker Lord, Sorcerer, or go on a footslogging rampage with Typhus or another LoC.

...

Jokes aside, what should I get after the SW start collecting to round out to 1000pts? Some user asked about Deathwatch SC + Dark Imperium last thread. Would it work here too? Also how are Space Yiffs doing in the 8th edition?

I suppose they are a "all or nothing" unit, perhaps?
Like you have to use 5-6 of them and 1-2 characters to take the maximum advantage from the situation...

For Yvraine and her husbando Bobby G.

Let's play a game, fa/tg/uys

>Best chapter
>Worst chapter
>Needs more lore chapter

For me:
>Blood angels
>Yiffers
>Howling Griffons

Since you're saying chapter rather than faction I'll say:

>Lamenters
>Space Yiffs
>Lamenters

They're niggers, just like you

>Like you have to use 5-6 of them and 1-2 characters to take the maximum advantage from the situation...
I guess, if you suck. Build your army with the goal of crippling as many units as possible, as many HQ as possible and giving out as many debuffs as possible. You're sure to win.

They've done a ton of damage for me. Only used them twice so far. 1st time they destroyed a Redemptor Dreadnaught in 1 fight phase. Today they destroyed a rhino.

They basically get the same number of attacks as power fist terminators but without the -1 to hit. Also Plague Weapons.

Very killy imo.

Is there anything worse than a furry nigger?

>chapter
Snooooooooooooore

>Howling Griffons
>Marines Malevolent
>Raven Guard
Right, but you could spend around the same amount of points for Blightlords and get double the amount of attacks against the knight. Not to mention trading in those shit-tacular hand-flamers for actual guns.

Id go with Dark Eldar. They look like fun to paint and look like fun to play

>get double the amount of attacks against the knight
Less likely to get kills though.

A gay, pedophile, furry nigger.

Sorry this is a very generic statement and not of help at all.
See here as an example
>Build your army with the goal of crippling as many units
what the fuck does it even mean? You mean morale bombs?

2 furry niggers

Tyranids are awesome, codex is great and there's a good range of viable fleet tactics. Almost all their range is beautiful plastic with a unified scale and aesthetic. Go with them.

Blightlords have 1 more attack if comparing 3 DS vs 5 BL.

Also DS weapons are better.

Blightlords are for shooting mostly. They have decent melee sure, but it's not their main thing.

How many did you use?

>imperial fists
>space yiffs
>mentors

Are the Lamenters still around or are they an extinct Chapter?

Fun to paint depends on your preference
Easiest is Necrons
Complex is DE
Most colour variety is Nids

>Are any of them fucking horrible this edition?
Don't hedge things on rules. Rules change, your models won't change into something better.
Buy what you want to build.

>Space Wolves
>Dark Angels
>Exorcists

>tfw win my first game with pure primaris

a gay, trans, pedophile, furry, brony nigger

>Hurr 40k community is so fuckin cancerous - we need new not-waacfagging players
>le ebin nigger replies

My marines have green weapons, should they have blue or purple plasma coils?

Drop morale, boost your own.
Double tap with rapid fire at 18" with DG rapid fire weapons to draw the enemy in to their own rapid fire range and then pin them with terminators and other TEQ's.
Use Myphitic Blight-Haulers for improved saves for everyone in range.
Tarpit with everything you can.
Remember your rerolls
bla bla bla

3.

10 str 8 attacks is nothing to scoff at.

I don't think they are officially extinct, but I'm pretty sure they are all dead apart from the dreadnought in deathwatch.

>praetorians
>space marines
>squats

>BAngles
>DAngles
>Raptors

>Dem pointy-eared eldar gits
>Da greenskins could always use more o' dis lore fing. Lore's like dakka roight?

DIS LAD GETS IT!

The points are limited, you cannot do the three of them.
Good termies, good double tapping plagues+Mephitic, good swarms.
If you want decent antitank and drones, you can choose only 2 of these, tops.

nobody cared who I was until i held the line

You're a big guy

>Best
They're all the same, they're all boring
>Worst

>Needs more lore
None of them, space marines should be squatted

>Chaos
>Guard
>I wish Necrons had more character-developing lore and less "and then these fuckin robots woke up and killed shit" lore to be honest

For youya grot

40kg is toxic shite most of the time

A forgeworld customer.

>tfw Tau keep getting nerfed

>Imperial Fists
>Space Wolves
>Sons of the Phoenix (combining the best of Dark Angels, Black Templars, Blood Angels, Emperor's Fist, and Word Bearers all in one shiny new Primaris package)

I dunno, a big guy just made a veiled reference to wulfen... I think?

Plus 'ebin nigger' replies are always good for a laugh (even if you're on the receiving end)

>he doesn't convert his own characters

Someone gimme a quick rundown on why people hate space wolves?

> roll over a knight in a single turn!!!
Yeah. Maybe if you max out the unit, and have an HQ near by to give them re roll all wounds, and a plaguecaster to be +1 S... and all that ends up more than the Knight
Deathshroud can not normally just 'roll up a knight dawg'.

wulfen niggers are cool

They're basically the special snowflakes of the setting. Also, furries.

Space Wolves
Grey Knights
Every Primaris founding chapter

They were cool space vikings in 3rd, but then GW made them into space furries, that ride into battle of wolves.

How would you anons fix deathwatch in their codex?

They were cool when I was 14. Then I grew up.

They are still horrible Mary Sues

Yeah, I noticed this during the 7th edition but other generals are usually getting their shit together and trying to help newcomers because fresh blood is always useful. Here I got super handy nigger jokes. Guess I will find other place to ask or other game to spend my money on

i wish i didnt have a backlog so i could buy tyranids

i regret not starting them but everyone said they sucked in 7th so i went with chaos

chaos is cool though

but look at this happy little termagant

hes like a alien veliciraptor from space with a alien velociraptor from space gun

Dubs decide whether I go with Imperial or Renegade Knights.

Definitely look into the playstyles and decide what you want to do. Play some games with other people's armies if you can.

Dark Eldar are quick and deadly glass cannons
Necrons are tough as nails and fairly shooty
Tyranids are about swarms, giant dino bugs, and often a lot of psykers

For painting, necrons are the easiest, nids have the most flexibility, and dark eldar are sleek and scary. Look at potential paint schemes on google and see what you like. All 3 are pretty distinctive and cool in their own ways.

>Gee Brother, how come the Chapter Master lets you have TWO Power Fists ?

>WAAAAAAAAAh
>MOOOOOOM
>40KG WAS MEAN TO MEEEEEE
Back to le reddit kiddo.

renegade

If you go with Imperial knights they must be Mechanicus aligned

Orange.

Nobody cares, fuck off.

This is pretty much why 40k players get the worst rep

Have fun kids

though I personally do enjoy 40kg your comment is as braindead as an ogryn servitor

nigger

Congrats user, I've won 3 in a row with just Primaris and a 4th yesterday with a Redemptor thrown in.
Refine your list if possible, Primaris get crazy optimisation when it comes to re-rolls.

I tend to do it like firing lines when it comes to my infantry because it means re-rolls are put to use constantly. I'll be changing things up once I get a repulsor.

Once anything crosses the 12" mark I make it rain Inceptors and Reivers from the flanks and behind. Fun times.

>Pssh, nothing personnel, kid.

They have all the benefits of being a space marine with none of the drawbacks. they get to spit in the eye of the setting and get away with it while being complete mary sues. Also furries

Any ideas lads?

Probably just make them cheaper.

My reason is, too much wolf.

youtu.be/ihskUz0obzY?t=987

Pic related is litterally supersonic balance.

Get out!

you guys think that a lot of wounds? I buff my defiler to do about 20 wounds a turn. Hit him with prescience, blades of putrefaction, and virulent blessing and he does double damage on 5+ wound rolls and hits on 3+

I want regular deathwatch dudes to be able to take stormshields for like 10> points

user FOR PRESIDENT

Get buff bro, I appreciate your killyfiler

We'll see with the codex

They break too many rules of the setting, and they're way to heavy with the wolf shit.
