Would the Warhammer 40k Battle Journal Be the stupidest 40k purchase i have and will ever make?

Yes. Absolutely. Use a fucking notebook ya dingus

>Warhammer 40k Battle Journal
most likely yes

Looking at getting a Hive Tyrant into my list just for the sake of I like the model and want to use Fleshborer hives for Deathspitters and melee weapons (it is a pretty cool looking conversion). Image isn't my work, but, I just love that conversion style and wish to emulate it if I can find a list that works with Raveners and gaunt swarms with it.

Hive Fleet Jorm, 1750 points, 6CP.
1xFlyrant, Warlord, 2x Deathspitters, Monsterous Boneswords, Adrenal Glands, Toxin Sacs, Infrasonic Roar, Adaptive Biology, Horror, and Smite.
1xNeurothrope Onslaught, Smite.
30xTermagaunts w/Devourers
30xTermagaunts w/Devourers
30xHormagaunts w/Adrenal Glands
30xHormagaunts w/Adrenal Glands
1xThe Red Terror
6xRaveners, 6 Deathspitters
1xTyrannofex w/Rupture Cannon
1xHarpy w/2xStranglethrone Cannons

Depends on how much you play, and how much you love /your dudes/, my dude. If you play a ton and love your army, get it. Why not? Record your dude's history.

Why would you post something like this as the first post in a brand new thread?

Are you a monster? Do you have any empathy? You couldn't wait even for it to begin to autosage?

Such barbarism.

The requirements for my 4th year dissertation book are pretty lax, should I hand in my work on invertebrates as a bio-indicator of water contamination in a warhammer 40k battle journal?

Carnifex w/ 4x Devourer, Enhanced Senses or Acid Maw, tail weapon and Spore Cysts is 117 points.

Can humans even compete?

I have never played a game yet. I still have to to finish my god damned army. So much painting still left to do.

Anyone have the page like this but for Hydra?

>Not Jive Tyrant.gif
Come on, son.

She's talking like GW's already decided to produce female space marines.

I could use these and boneswords to represent quad devourers and acid maw I think...

This one is the Jive Tyrant

@56352537
Don't take the bait

>bright red lipstick
>dyed hair
>partiall shaved head
>trashy tattoos
>fat
>ugly

She's got the retard feminist uniform down.

The Carnifex has an Acid Maw in the kit though, it's the head option with the long tongue + the venom gland underneath it.

Posting from last thread, Tyranid point values

How do you all stay/get motivated to paint?

I can only seem to paint for like 10 minutes at a time once or twice per day. It's utterly unfun for me.

So, I'm giving my Night Lords some Icons of Despair for extra spooky effects, but I'm aiming to keep them largely "purist."

Any of you anons have a recommendation on what to use that isn't particularly Chaos-y to denote which Marine has the icon? I was thinking about maybe painting something on the bare pauldron that could resemble a Nostraman gang symbol, but I'm not sure how to go about that. Taking other suggestions as well.

Does anyone have any experience selling their models to FrontlineGamings second hand shop? I got some shit I want to sell off before I think about starting up a new army. Getting extra value to use on their shop sounds like a nice fast way of getting rid of some shit.

>deathleaper 90
>red terror 75
Wut? Those are some of the cheapest special characters I've ever seen. And it says that even includes wargear.

I guess GW really wants to sell those models/get people playing those SC.

You're missing the second power on the Flyrant and the Neuro, take Catalyst and Psychic Scream.

Monstrous Boneswords are shit, take MSTs or MRCs for the Flyrant melee weapon.

One of those devilgant broods will be footslogging, so I would cut 10x devs from them and add some Fleshborers as chaff to eat wounds for the expensive guns.

2 units of Horms is too much, they suck at killing anything they're just for holding it in place until your killy units can make it into combat, I would swap one of those for 15x Genestealers. Alternatively try and grab a second unit of Raveners so you can Deep Strike both Devilgant broods or something.

An impaled corpse, something gruesome like that.

Just greenstuff two or three smaller Devourers together with a bigger arm.

Why would you do this, the thread is just a baby?

Or they aren't that good and need the boost.

But you could just as easily record it in a notebook...

You can get the same number of Devourer shots out of gants for almost half that price, despite them being only S4.

Devilfexes are a fucking waste, put melee weapons on them so you actually get the benefits of their special rules.

just report it. Enought reports and the mods will delete the post and issue a 3-day ban.

doesn't matter what they did, the mods don't even look because they're lazy. Enough reports and they simply issue a ban.

can a kindly user post tyranid color schemes from the codex?

They're garbage and overcosted even at those points cost, user, fuck off.

Oh, yeah, that's a good point. I could probably use the left-over bits from my Skeleton Warriors and stick some bones on their armor. Thanks, user.

Exactly how exclusive is the excelsior kit?

Maybe some wurd on a possible future release?

that's not a good thing, nothing you just posted is good

>primaris rhino/land raider
But what about the hover car?

Is that a satellite dish on that tank?

A standard made out of flayed skin?

So why didn't GW simply buff them in their new codex? That's literally the time to do it.

Also does the red terror still kill models outright? I remember back in 3ED losing a space marine chaplain to one because he was "swallowed whole"

Are you telling me you dont like the fact that mods are lazy and will just ban anything that people say is wrong?

Are pic related helpful for soup cultists?

>So why didn't GW simply buff them in their new codex?
Because they have no idea how to write a melee army these days.

90% of the new Codex buffs are just for shooting.

Of course it is. If enough people report the /pol/baiters they get banned. Simple as.

/pol/ warned you, Veeky Forums. But you didn't listen. Why didn't you listen?

As a matter of fact I don't like that.
That works both ways you absolute retard.
And 70% of /40kg/ was confirmed to be /pol/

We just have to complain about it enough on facebook and i am sure they will fix melee.

because /pol/ needs to go back to it's damn containment board and stop trying to derail conversations about plastic models with their stupid. Don't think there is anything stopping /pol/ from doing a 40k thread over there and circle jerking there, would make life easier.

I'm trying to think of a centerpiece unit for my Minotaurs. Would pic related be too much?

Yes, but that's not the problem. The problem is the quad devourers in the kit look really awkward.

yet more character models for my space marines.
Soon my characters will outnumber my tactical marines

What have you mooks done?

The girl at my flgs is super hyped about more female models. It's cute. This girl is weird looking though.

I do it in a store.
Makes it easier to stay motivated when I've got people to talk to that are doing the same thing.

Oh yeah, I could probably make something out of green stuff. Thanks for the suggestion.

One squad at a time.

It's ok, shit is not eath shattering OP.

Hover car too pricey, too many guns and all

we need more details user

>That works both ways
Yeah but what incentive would a bunch of polposters have to report an arbitrary post?

None. So abuse the system, report their posts and laugh as the uncaring mods are tricked into doing their job for once.

It's not lined paper, it's a template.

You strike me as a total cunt, I wish you a bad day.

>Look around ebay
>Find listing that has everything out of their boxes but still on spruce
>spruce is primed
Wait. Do people prime while it's still on the spruce? I've always assembled my models them primed.

Can I get some feedback on my Space Wolves?

Yeah I know what you mean, I made this guy last weekend and his quad devourers look really weird.

I know we arent suppose to you know discuss this because it will some how destroy the thread but like 58 seconds in she all but says that GW is releasing female space marines and i dont know if i just missed an announcement or this woman is stupider than she looks.

WIP Eldar Ranger conversion

I goddamn wish.

You'd think they could have at least just got Lictors right.

Also not a hq choice so. No real appeal

Really stupid people prime their sprues, yes.

Yeah I really don't get what GW was going for with the repulsor.

The only vehicle capable of transporting primaris, and yet expensive and full of guns.

If it had variants where the transport variant with some lesser weapons like a single heavy onslaught cannon weighed in at 175pts, while the dakkadakka one lost it's transport capacity and was dropped a good 50pts it would be more enticing.

>putting the lower arms on the outside
You just suck at posing user.

>reporting offtopic bait posts is cunty
You must be one of the /pol/posters. Enjoy.

Next you are gonna say people paint their sprues.

So the list is perfect.

>I am a God

Night lord Nids

I mean i wish they would just fix how cover works. Just make it work like the old system. If the model is obscured by terrain then it gets a +1 to its armour save its not that fucking hard.

So I've edited the list, but I might still keep Voldus in there instead of the Chaplain. Really depends on the mood. Not much has changed though. I also considered putting Draigo in there instead of Voldus, but shit that's two Grey Knight heroes in one list.

So here's my mishmash list. I tried to split the Paladins and the purifiers kinds equally but granted a GK are expensive, it looks a little uneven. I'd have liked to have more purifiers but I don't think they'll do much of shit without a brother captain. Either way I'm pretty happy with the list. It has a lot of fun stuff and strong stuff as well, and I love the a Vortimer Redeemer. Everything is S6 or higher. Good shit. #

I can't seem to find a chinaman with Crowe that isn't Mirandairene. I ordered something from her ages ago and it never came.
Suggestions?

Not guy but you're a literal faggot, stfu.

Is that scenery or furniture, is scenery post full table.

>spruce
>not a typo, says it 3 times
user. It's "sprues" or "sprue" for the singular.

Actually! I put the lower arms on the inside first, and it looked even worse. The poseability of those arms is godawful.

user how is this post Off topic? Its a post about some one talking about the game. Its like saying when we talk about who is the most insufferable fan base is off topic.

What's their names again?

It's not off topic but it is pure bait.

This is kind of less cool than the original version which implied it was a future Hive Fleet that got sent BACK in time.

An old Hive Fleet that jumped forward in time is kind of meh.

They aren't
she sticks female heads on her marines and pretends it's intended by geedubs
also seems confused between sisters and female marines

So I've edited the list, but I might still keep Voldus in there instead of the Chaplain. Really depends on the mood. Not much has changed though. I also considered putting Draigo in there instead of Voldus, but shit that's two Grey Knight heroes in one list.

Suggestions?

Since you're stupid I'll explain it to you in simple terms.

Post stupid offtopic baiting bullshit that has an entire board it can be posted on, get reported.

Acting indignant when you're called out on baiting just makes you more likely to get reported.

It's not scenery

You do know that abusing the report system based on your personal views is actually against the rules right?

That doesn't do jack shit to fix Tyranids melee, user, the fuck are you saying.

Choppy Shooty green spore cuties.

What the hell is it for then?

it is the board

She's kinda tall and kinda chubby. A wannabe amazon basically.

Hey i prime on my sprue and i take offense to this. I sorta just prefer to build sub assembly every thing. Probably why it takes me for ever to paint one model.

So is that supposed to be a giant robot, or simply architecture styled as if it were a giant robot?

Help me t/g i can't decide between 2 lists. i have a tourney tomorrow and i'm torn.
