I tried to
I really did
But ran out of paint
only suffering and whgiskey remains
I hate life

Threadly reminder that if you buy the new custodes you are what is wrong with the hobby. No matter how much you like them you have to buy a xeno army even if you dont like them.

Eldar
A non psychic wraith HQ

Thoughts on the best primarch?

>Deathwatch
>Sniper/scout marines

That's not Dorn.

If he's the best then why is he dead

...

Tsons
Psychic Robots

Admech combat flyer, a big armoured airship with hardpoints that can mount basic weapons like Cognis autocannon and lascannon and still carry about some troops or take bigger guns like Neutron Lasers at the cost of transport cap. We need some more damn heavy AT, neutron lasers don't really cut it against the big boys compared to laspreds or similar.

Because he wanted to die

>Best Terminators aesthetically
>Best Dreadnoughts *teleports behind you
>Best Land Raiders I can shoot through walls, bitch
>Best Power armor Sersiously, Strikes and Purgators are pretty damn costeffective compared to marines or deathwatch
>Grey Knights are Best Knights edition
You fucking know it.

It dont matter how viable we are competetively.
We're still the most fabulous motherfuckers around.
WE WUZ KNIGHTS AND SHIIET

So what do you think the real GK will get in their codex?

>running deathwatch using the deathwatch index rules
>not just running a single kill team in a blackstar and fielding the rest from C:SM

Would've been down at my local GW haunt and playing some games, but since my car is dead I'm stuck at home with my boyz and unable to paint them/build the Battlewagon I got from the store's Secret Santa.

So I'm on here, chatting with you gits.
>t. Da Unkillablez Freebootaz Ork player

>Catellan and the Purifiers will never be this cool.
FUCKING ONE ATTACK, SERIOUSLY?

>Best primarch
>Not superiour snek waifu
shit taste.
fulgrim did nothing wrong

Just preordered fifty million Custodes models

Trying to figure out how to convert a venerable dreadnought to a chaos dreadnought with a power scourge without it looking weird

>Imperial Guard
>recut catachans/cadian troopers

HW and command sprues are fine

Dorn is a arrogant asshole.
He's going only at building walls

Angron clearly is the best. Super dude bro sparticus in space foes crazy due to technology messing with his brain meats.

I don't play Chaos or Marines but, when they release his daemon primarch figure for 40k I'll probably get it just to paint.

>Laughs in wall

Second from bottom.. Life is pain.

A competitive army

In that pic you can see
Alarus Terms
Jetbikes
Valoris
Tribune?

They said the plastic range will be big, so there is probably another thing or two unrevealed.

I'm going to collect them all. They're going to look great alongside my FW Custodes and Sisters for my Talons of the Emperor list.
>:-3

good stuff

That a new book? Pdf anyone?

>a small, elite army
>competitive

Clearly that 1d6 smite is just too overpowered.

>Either forced to take guard or Nids
Isn't that kind of the point of GSC?

GS will save you.

>tfw I have an imperium army, a chaos army, an eldar army, and an associated xenos army

get on my level, cunt.

Amusingly, I've enountered at least 2 Custodes players at my local store before the new announcement. Only got to play against one so far (lost but it was enjoyable), but I feel that these players are going to be happy.

Does anyone else thing the Land Raider doesn't mesh right with the Cutodes aesthetic?

The plastic contemptor is also hideous

This pisses me off something fierce. Fucking hell, they toned down IW endurance in both 30K and 40K, and they all but removed IW melee prowess in both systems also (ADB gets cred for having a highly skilled IW duellist in Black Legion)... What's left even?

Just give admech a big fucking cannon
Like a fucking HUGE cannon.

>fucking memewatch beat new Daemons List in latest TTT video

HAAH WAAW

Captain gives rerolls
Normal Cusstoads come as Troops, probably two different types, as can be seen in the pic.
Terminator Cusstoads are Elites, along with the Dreadnought.
Bikes go in Fast attack, Land Raider into heavy support.
They might have rules for SOS in the dex as well.

As for rules, probably stuff like
>Models in a custodes army automatically pass battleshock
>Pay CP to deepstrike a unit
>let a unit fight twice
>let a unit shoot twice
etc, etc...

hopefully sisters of silence won't be trash now.

>Orks won't get a codex or any new minis until 2019

Dis really sucks, boyz

I'm guessing:
>Named HQ
>non-named tribune
>banner man Elite Choice
>Command squad
>Termies
>termie banner man
>Basic custodes unit, option for sword or spear as is now
>jet bike with option to take either hurricane bolters or missiles
>dreadnought
>land raider
Not a terrible sized line up. With FW stuff that's a real army, even if a list with 20+ dudes will be apocalypse levels of points

>They might have rules for SOS in the dex as well.
I think they confirmed on jewbook that they wont

I hate having many models but i like general aesthetic of IG, what do bros?
Can i go just pure vehicle or mostly vehicle with few foot troops?

Use the old metal model, it rocks balls.

>Space marines get hover tanks
>Custodes that canoniocally have hover tanks don't get hover tanks

Don't you guys have a corpse to defend? :^)
I'd ask for you to hand over your bolter spears before you go but it turns out we already have those too.

Just needs more Aquilas.
Yes it's ugly. Fucking FW having the cool ones.

I feel like Lawrence threw that game.

Apparently not in this edition

Is it a bad idea to start orks now?
>new models
Like would this actually happen?

Link?

It is basically the second ugliest dread and a land raider slapped with an overly garish gold coat instead of something more muted

They will probably keep Guard without DS and drop some points around the place like every other codex got.
So you'll squeeze in more things into your army.
Alarus probably DS

Yep
I was originally going to try to make it be like the old metal chaos dread but because of the scourge I'll probably make it be half flesh half mechanical.
If I ever feel like having 3 dreadnoughts I will, the more the merrier

I might build my fifth squad of skitarri today.

Those boobs seem low

That's why 30k Custodes got their own transport, tank and dreads

...

Oh that fucked up power claw thing? that would look legit.

>orks iz never defeated
>if we get new sculpt we get new sculpts
>if we get no new sculpts it don't count either, cos we can always convert see!

Dark Eldar
speedy non-named HQ (jetbike, scourge wings, hellion surfboard etc)

What's the scale of this like compared to modern plastic dreadnoughts?

>That's why 30k Custodes got their own transport, tank and dreads
So essentially they're moving all the Custodes stuff that was all 30k really had left going for it to 40k?

So.... 30kfags on suicide watch I guess?

Everyone will have a codex by the end of the year.

Only marines will get new fucking minis though.

Thankies

>Grey Knights
A unit actually worth its points.

He trounced Bbone's T'au in the last tactical video he did on his pay channel.

Beard could use a win anyway. It must get fairly depressing playing Lawrence all the time.

Eldar
>Phoenix Lord for Shining Spears

Dark Eldar
>Fast HQ - hopefully on a bike

Harlequins
>Some form of mannequin construct

Ynnari
>Generic Death Priest HQ

About the same

>Is it a bad idea to start orks now?
It's never a bad idea to start the best army.
WAAAAGH!!!!

>the vortex beast is now usable
Yay, I liked that model. What sort of rules do you guys think it'll be getting?

The Jetbikes are top stuff, big, chunky and similar to the 3rd ed art of them, I wonder if there'll be an HQ choice in Jetbike or if the Terminators will be the only 'generic' HQ.

>He thinks 30k fags care about custodes
It's just a passing amusement for them. They are marine fags through and trough.

>29

Yeah I'm a paid member. I prefer the tactica stuff honestly (also did you watch the Tactica UM v. Nurgle?)

I'd love to be doing hobby stuff right now. But I am stuck in another country and can't buy any because it would mean leaving it here when I go.
I just want to paint some blood ravens dammit.

Yes that would be cool.

Without memeing, is Tau fun to play?
i like mechas and don't care much about melee
>inb4 Tau fuck off
pls i am just asking

Anyone know how large the Herald of Khorne is? I was thinking of using the one from the Bloodthrone as a foot herald and wanted to make sure they were the same size.

I juat got a GSC battleforce.
Along with the Nu Space Hulk game do I have enough models for an army?

I have over 6k of Witch Hunters IG,
SoB, SoS and Inquisition there should be enough models to represent a more pure GSC with little IG support.

>implying Orks can't just use older models
Git, I've got an entire mob of unpainted Choppa boyz and a mob of Gretchin from the Rogue Trader days, the latter of which I use when I need to feel a bunch of traffic cone-wearing canon fodder.

We'll survive as far as minis go. Da boyz always do. though I'd love an updated Ghaz model. Pretty sure Chaos would love an updated Abby model too, now that I think about it.

I painted 3 Kataphron Destroyers, waiting on SC skitarii to show up

Maulerfiend with debuff and/or mortal wound aura, obviously.

Drukahri
named HQ or highly customizable HQ

Ynnari
Death priest does sound good
Maybe a new troop unit

Harlequins
Just make the death jester better or super cheap

GSC
Dedicated anti tank unit

Nids
Plastic LoW

not really. It's mostly just waiting around for the enemy to run into range of your guns

No, the point is to have an army that can bring in a few units from those armies to complement the units unique to that army that are meant to make up the majority, both in fluff and in function.

Not glue a tyranid army and an imperial guard army together with a patrol detachment.

Yes robots are fun if you don’t go overboard on normal crisis suits. The riptide and stormsurge aren’t very good but stealth suits, ghostkeels and commanders are excellent

this is it in AoS

what are some salamanders books or stories would you guys recommend?
