I want to draft up a letter to send to GW’s rules dept as recommended to me by the community team on their fb page, even though it’s probably a futile effort, I want to see if any changes are made to GK. Most certainly at the top of the list will be the overwhelming disapproval of the beta smite rules for armies with diet Smites. But I want to write to them with the desires of more than just myself. So, tell me fellow GK players: How could Gw improve the faction’s viability without having to write a new codex?
Michael Williams
Which Chapter do you guys think would fit best in a sort of Inquisitorial Task Force/ImpSoup army? I was thinking Mentors but as a Necron player I'm not sure who has closes ties with the Big I.
Cooper Evans
Well it can go on a Daemon Prince apparently.
Jack Morales
>fucking why Because GW doesn't believe in Chaos Undivided (they call it Chaos Undecided). Codex Chaos Daemons is anthology of four small armies in a single book.
Just like Codex Imperial Agents (but for Chaos)
Julian Gomez
That Khorne warlord trait tho.
Anthony Morales

tfw best friend is in 40k and he loves slaanesh but is constantly upset at the thought of his army being squated
Ryan Long
Looks like I might be starting my 4th army sooner than I thought.
Mason Diaz
I just want slaanesh stuff damnit. Is there another place for more reliable 40k news?
Grayson Young
What was it before? I missed it
Brody White
Literally nothing.
Daniel Ross
>sooner than I thought. Primarchs are leaked well in advance.
Morty was teased before 8e.
I'd guess if Fulgrim is leaked now. He'll show up 3Q earliest, but 4Q / 1Q of 2019 more likely.
Grayson Lewis
Lady Atia or something like that on faeit212 is usually spot on. Someone correct me on the names if needed.
Cooper Foster
Because they don't want to cuck people for playing mono-god armies.
Wyatt Miller
grey knights if you are hunting psykers or heretics, deathwatch for xenos scum
Landon Hall
>wait a bit fug, if i wait for GW to release anything worthwhile i will get into hobby in 2025
Chase Clark
>not pandering to mono god fans and chaos undivided at the same time
I saw that but thought they'd put something up before it, realised what they'd done and took it down.
Jason Ward
I need some rules clarification in regards to some ancient leman russ tank varients and forge world armored vehicles. I've scoured my rule books and various FAQs and haven't come up with a sutible answer.
Can the Leman Russ Conqueror, Stygies or Gryphonne pattern Vanquishers be taken as a tank commanders tank? Can they have access to regular leman russ tank equipment like track guards or dozer blades?
Furthermore can the salamander scout or command vehicle, the destroyer tank hunter or thunderer siege tank take equipment like track guards or dozer blades?
I've been collecting these ancient things and I want to use them eventually to their full potential and not do things with them I can't. Any help is appreciated.
Benjamin Morgan
If true (bols does not have the best batting average when it comes to industry 'scoops') then I need to finish my 30k Fulgrim soon.
Aiden Nguyen
same as ever, they require too much effort and mono god is easy to push. i'll be doing multi god because i like a bit of khorne and tzeentch with my slaanesh. fuck nurgle, they're too slow for me
maybe allow smite to power up when near another squad? add d3 so 2 terminator squads near each other allow 1 to do 2d3 smite. i wouldn't be surprised if they got something this year since we're getting a lot of daemons in 2018
Anthony Brown
I mean if he wants to gimp himself by buying 2 stormsurges then let him. Damn things will die before ever making his points back.
Lincoln Price
Fucker like this is why I want to get a Falchion.
Jack Kelly

At least it's good to veto people.
Mason Sanders
I'm short about 4 grey knight Psilencers. How hard is it to convert a Paladin Psilencer into a GK one? Would I be better off just converting the lot of them like this, using Psilencers with the burst Cannon on the end?
Christian Hernandez
Think Khorne ever gets Khorny haha
Brody Perez
>chaosfag >Taufags >reasonable Let me guess everyone clapped too?
Chase Johnson
The patterns refer to cosmetic differences for the most part (except those coaxial stormbolters...)
According to the IA books they can indeed take the vehicle upgrades.
Wyatt King
Stormsurges aren't that good anyway and most suits are overcosted, so you guys are fine
Nicholas Green
Fug sorry, my laptop and internet shat the bed.
And yeah, I'm glad he made these posts cause now I can avoid this guy like the plague. He's either going to get his army stomped on the battlefield or he's going to get his ass kicked physically for being a fag.
James Barnes
>mfw he'll ragequit and sell his army cheap on ebay to get rid of em
Grayson Mitchell
what's the avg on 3d6? 10?
Blake Davis
10.5
Hudson Smith
Please let this be true
Ryan Diaz
2 stormsurges is a shitty army anyway.
Owen Hernandez
People are telling him to wait specifically because of Farsight. He wants an all-suit army, which isn't doable at the moment because suits are expensive and no troops. You'll have few models and fuckall CP, 8e loves troops and numbers. If Farsight makes Crisis Suits better and/or cheaper and makes them Troops then maybe it's doable.
No, people just gave up trying to help. Even one of the local WAACfags just said "do what you want, rule of cool!" just to end the conversation.
Alexander White
>Slaaneshfags all excited for this >Don't realize they will become the next waacfag soup army template.
Ethan Martin
>Thinking we'll give a shit
Henry Moore
CSM or wait for new Daemon Codex? Or both?
Samuel Brown
Both. Even if 8th isnt nice to double dipping armies, you can just do CSM and summon in daemons
absolutely BASED GW not folding into outsiders and guest outsider writers on BoLS who want Slaanesh gone from the game
Connor Ramirez
Here's a death guard I did for a friend.
Hunter Phillips
>Can the Leman Russ Conqueror, Stygies or Gryphonne pattern Vanquishers be taken as a tank commanders tank? No. Tank Commander is a specific datasheet with its own specific options.
Joshua Rogers
Exorcists
Carter Thompson
>mfw I have a friend interested in the series >wants to play auxiliary heavy tau What should I tell him?
Jackson Robinson
I don't get why they'd want to get rid of it. Slaanesh is the colored non binary god of debauchery and excess. In a movement where the main goal is to make it so women can do whatever with no consequences, that seems right up their alley.
Brandon Baker
>2018 >caring about being called a waacfag >caring about being called a caacfag
Sebastian Walker
That looks really neat user. Where's the rest of him though?
Asher Torres
What's his reason for wanting an all-suit army? Is he a Gundam fan or what?
Jason Reyes
because MEN play daemons with tits which is literally worse than RAPING real women
Brayden Green
Expect to be the whipping boy forever
>Or at least until the codex comes out... R-right?
Benjamin Myers
>wants to play Tau
Stop him!
Samuel Baker
OH MAN! I cannot WAIT for this fucking arguement: "im using/summoning the changeling from the chaos codex, but he has tzeench/demon keyword so I can use the chaos codex bonuses with the rest of my army that is pure codex demon tzeench"
Evan Jackson
>implying anything on BOLS is true
With Magnus and Morty getting released, it's pretty inevitable we'll see a daemon primarch every year and Fulgrim will be one of them and I would love an EC release, but it'll take more than Larry fuckin Vela to convince me it'll be this year.
My money would be on Orks, Wolves and Khorne this year.
Leo Bennett
That it requires more modelling than other armies but is fine in the long run
t.vespid breeding gue'vesa
Blake Scott
Nice work, user.
Edit: Would be a nice reaction pic if his thumb was pointing up.
Grayson King
>BOLS >fucking clickbait garbage >40k leaning blog becomes shit site pandering to all TTG what fucking shit is this
Tell me again where you heard it from, user?
Michael Nguyen
Boils deep in yer mum!
Jace Morgan
Kroot Mercenary codex when?
William Hernandez
never
Tyler Brooks
I'd just like them to be viable in a tau army besides being the meat shield
Tyler Brooks
Hey we eventually got GSC and DW lists. Kroot mercs could make a comeback... I used to run a KM list and all I can say is holy shit those hounds.
Caleb Jones
But being a meatshield is a viable niche though.
Ethan Brooks
>bell of lost shills >being right about anything
Give me one confirmed rumor that they spew out.
Carson Sullivan
the rumor that i fucked your mom
Aiden Brown
I don’t think they even make their own rumors, they seem more of a rumor aggregate and editorial site. They’ll publish rumors that faeit212 gets, but I don’t think they make their own.
William Wilson
I don't know 100% but
>Can't have a single conversation without bringing up japan or his travels there >Animu version of himself as FB pic
Chances are he is a weeaboo. I mean alfa's Farsight video may be a caricature but this is the kind of person who sees it and takes it seriously.
Xavier Carter
I just.. don't like the idea of the tau roping in a less-advanced race with promises of the greater good, only for them all to be sent to their death, to die like loyal dogs. Makes me feel sorry for them to the point that I won't use them... I'd rather pay for fire warriors to be the meat shield.
Pussy reason, I know, kek, but I just can't do it!
Evan Cox
>two traitor primarchs in a row Bell of lost souls being retards again.
Jack Baker
>the rebirth of Slaanesh Good things in the pipeline.
Thomas Ramirez
Some species are more greater good than others, user.
Luis Martin
>he thinks Tau are the good guys >he thinks there ARE good guys in 40k
Chase Sullivan
They don't rope in Kroot with promises of the greater good though. Kroot are just mercs for the Tau.
Lincoln Thompson
Who was in the wrong here?
Justin Powell
Also, it's the tau empire. In the original codex it was depicted that it was like a confederation of races all fighting for the same cause. It's no good if it's the tau doing all the fighting with any other races just providing a tarpit - I want to field tau, kroot and vespid all as capable units in their own right, if that makes sense.
Ryan King
They are more loyal to tau than any other race, they just work as mercs for other races.
Brandon Johnson
Lemme do that up real quick.
Robert Morgan
Not him, but I tried my best, user
Brandon Hughes
Only slightly better than the Kill Choppa nigga.
Joseph Bell
I don't think either of those things. You missed my point
Kroot are mercs in general but fight for the greater good because they want to, not because they're paid to
Grayson Edwards
What's wrong with Stormsurges and Warhounds? It's not like they're any good, and it's not like your weapons are useless against them now that anything wounds on a 6.
James Ramirez
the left one because hes not focused on the action
Sebastian Peterson
too bad, tau are just mechsuits now
Ryder Wood
generic ynnari hq when?
I dont want to use mary sue or king cuck.
Asher King
They still have the free scout move which allows them to be used for zoning and their hounds are actually decent melee units too so kroot do have a place beyond cannon fodder and vespids are like breachers on crack so they are pretty decent as well. The Greater Good demands the best of all of us to succeed, consider their application again gue'la
Anthony Wood
I know, right? I might make tau soup and proxy the kroot as ork boyz or something just so I can have glorious North Korean blue alien federation
Joshua Turner
With the Lightning Strike Fighter, when the datasheet says it can have 4 Hellstrike missiles, is that 4 missiles it can shoot per turn or 4 missiles for the entire game? Because if it's the latter, 30pts a pop is absurd.
