It's really nice and interesting to see Thousand Sons fans speculate and imagine what kind of cool stuff GW could do with their different schools of sorcery. Pavoni, Pyrae, all that shit. But there's no way in hell that 1ksons don't just get some WC9 spell: roll 9d6 for every unit of 9 or more models within 9", each roll of a 9 causes 0.9 mortals wounds for every 9th unit

They are profiting from Brexit
Scum.
Samuel Kelly
We support Brexit here, shitlord

Ryder Moore
Presumably Europe at this point, as it's not really popular here in England with the incredibly shitshow they are make of what was already a shit plan.

I'm just happy to have my codex back. What are the odds we get a start collecting box?

Landon Gutierrez
this is what remainers desperately believe
Alexander Bailey
You don't think the Tories are making a complete dog's breakfast of it? They are in utter chaos and basically had to agree to whatever Europe wanted because time was running out for a deal. They should have held off on actually pulling the lever on leaving until after they had some of the process worked out.
Ethan Hughes
High. could have tzaangors stuff in it. Maybe not AoS stuff. Scarab occult, 10 tzaangors and idk exalted sorc(s?). idk if those can be separated from 3s
Kevin Kelly
reposting for more opinions: would you care if my Black Knights only had 1 plasma talon each? Would you care if I fielded a custom landraider to count as any other variant?
Blake Richardson
It's still a good springboard for homebrew if nothing else.
Daniel Lee
A. I probably wont notice unless you tell me B. If you make it clear which variant you're using before the game, sure
I mean, in general I'd encourage you to keep your army as WSYIWYG as possible, just to be polite for your opponents. But if you wanna run things that way, sure. Just be aware some anons will get pissed about stuff like this.
As for the Tories handling of it, it hasn't been pretty but you need to remember how many reports of how talks are progressing come from pro-remain papers, and especially how many are from EU sources that are of course invested in making the process look as difficult as possible.
Parker Hall
Anyone have a Salamanders Successor Chapter?
Obviously Second Founding is out of the question (what with the lack of Salamanders and everything), but what about later chapters?
I'm thinking about making Salamanders that focus on heavy weapons and chunky units rather than fire.
Justin Hill
What should I work on tg, My Slaaneshi mono army or my Eldar?
The daemon book seem utterly uninspired for Slaanesh armies so there is next to no change other then having to use two books for our haralds now and no point changes from the index so not much new under the sun.
On the other hand I do love my Daiz minis to bits.
Bentley Scott
black dragons
Leo Cox
Mind you: The counterpoint to that is that was done by a single study by the Mail on Sunday which is a pro-leave paper so it's readers (And thus the people who are voting in it's poll) would likely be inherently pro-leave.

>Key to this sales performance has been our commitment to talking with our customers. We have a great, global community who are both loyal and passionate. Over the last six months we have - again - doubled the number of customers interacting with us on social media.
>We’ve supported these customers with daily content for Warhammer: Age of Sigmar and Warhammer 40,000, and increased our video output to more than one video every day, reaching over 100,000 people per day. We’ve also continued to develop warhammer-community.com and created new brand content sites. In the last six months alone, our content has had 16.3 million views from 2.5 million users, and this increase shows no sign of stopping.
So looks like Veeky Forums really is irrelevant.
Robert Thomas
Funded by them, but not taken from a random selection of their readership
Samuel King
Veeky Forums has always been irrelevant.
Colton Martin
>We do not consider that we have material solvency or liquidity risks. We also feel that it is too early to tell what the effects will be on Games Workshop of the UK Government invoking Article 50 of the Treaty of Lisbon, notifying the European Council of its intention to withdraw from the European Union. The greatest risk is the same one that we repeat each year, namely, management. So long as we have great people we will be fine. Problems will arise if the board allows egos and private agendas to rule. I will do my utmost to ensure that this does not happen.
LMAO is that shots fired at Kirby
Lincoln Perry
To the surprise of no one.
Wyatt Harris
10 Rubrics, 5 Scarab Occult or 10 Tzaangors, and Exalted Sorcerers or Terminator Sorcerer.
Anthony Gray
redpill me on Kirby
Jaxson Garcia
Had my first metal miniatures arrive today. I like the cool little white citadel box they come in.
Dominic Cruz
He was the guy in charge before.
He made GW quite insular and led to some bad sales data for a while.
Connor Phillips
I've seen reports in the past 6 months that a poll showed that more than 50% of participants would now vote remain in a second referendum. Can't remember where and don't have time to post citation unfortunately.
My point being that polls like both of these greatly depend on who's being polled, who's doing the polling and who's doing the reporting.
On a side note, I haven't seen or heard a single brexiteer comment on how excited they are to see brexit progressing since the initial referendum.
Dominic Watson
How did you come to that conclusion? After a 10 year hiatus from warhamalams you fuckers brought me back in and the "new GW" has been able to keep me hyped about it ever since, I've also brought my wife and a few of my friends into the fold now so that should count for something
Eli Allen
DESU There are only 3 things i want outta the codex for T sons, a silver tower either super heavy or heavy, and our psyker dreads, and not shit scarab occult terminators.
Angel Miller
OK well anecdotal evidence doesn't count for much.
Chase Bennett
I'll admit, I'd like to see more information about how they weighed stuff/how they compensated for different response rates (As I imagine they got much lower ones from people who don't like the paper itself).
As there are other polls like the independent's which say otherwise and equally claim they weighed it properly.
>The BMG poll involved 1,447 individuals surveyed between 12-15 September. Results are weighted to reflect the profile of GB adults.
Though the poll I find most entertaining is the one from the Business insider that England's Brexit has increased the popularity of the EU among most of it's member nations. (Greece is, not surprisingly, a major exception)
Parker Jenkins
Commissar Doesn't agree with you
Charles Green
I was thinking of going Black Dragons or Storm Giants but I'm not a fan of alot of black/white (which sucks in this case).
Jace Diaz
Successors have successors m8, go drakes instead
Landon White
I just want the Scarab Occult Aspiring Sorceror to be a full fledged sorceror ahain, and not shit smite.
Also, I want it so that when I use generic Sorcerers (like sorcerers in terminator armour) get access to the better AP bolters.
Jaxon Cox
the black dragon lore is pretty good and could make for some great conversions though
Luis Garcia
Oh absolutely, I've got some spare Dryad bits from Sigmar so they can be used as bone spikes.
Maybe I can bring some more green into it and just use the black as a main body colour.
Easton Stewart
This, mostly this. Also make Aspiring Sorcerers less shit, they're what take an average unit (rubrics) and make them terrible.
Asher Lewis
Normal T sons are just pretty crappy right now, like the scarab occult is a bad unit, which is sad, they need to come down in point cost.
ditto, Rubrics lost their Psyker powers a lot.and if the beta rule goes though, which it is sounding like it will, its gonna be a massive kick to the dick of both tzeentzch and t sons.
I'd like to see whether EU support keeps growing on the continent once the UK has left and is economically largely the same as when it was a member (and paid so much for the privilege).
Dominic Brown
The guy who is responsible for killing specialist games and the shit show that is AoS
Levi Martin
I’m mostly kicking myself that I built my Scarab with the flamer, never got a game in, and then 8th dropped.
Another hope actually, while I remember. I hope they add 40k ‘bits’ to the new tzaangor models..... but I doubt it. They seem pretty tacked on
Ryan Gonzalez
I mean with both Scarab Occult and Rubric Marines, the non psyker parts of the unit are actually alright but not great. If the Unit's psykers were actually good you wouldn't even necessarily have to change anything about the rest of the unit to have them be worthwhile.
Bentley Powell
>40k bit They already have those, the current tzengor models have laz pistols and chain swords you silly bean.
Ryan Lopez
> Our new Global Head of IT and her team are making steady progress. > her team welp
Oliver King
No we're talking about the Shamans and Enlightened/Skyfires.
Carter Howard
Well thats the problem, rubrics and occult are only Alright. They are an elite choice for every other army, but over all they are a MEH, unit. Slow moving, not a lot of weapon options, VERY expensive. Scarab occult, being locked into power swords is fine, but they have no capability of killing heavy support.
Jace Rivera
Ohhhhhh ok gotcha yeah.
Isaiah Carter
i bet she's more talented that you are
Owen Moore

Eli Stewart

Jason Walker
Not the guy you replied to, but there is no position safe from diversity hiring.
Carter Sanchez
>desperately trying to defend a hypothetical man rather than just admit he's scared of women in the workplace
Christian Jones
NO to be fair, there are higher up positions that are just diversity fills. We have someone in our company who has no one reporting to her, reports directly to the CEO, and whos title is, "Chief of staff." Now tell me, what the fuck does a Chief of staff do?
Isaiah Ortiz
And you're not him either.
Brandon Davis
Takes care of the staffs, duh. You want people going out with shitty walking sticks?
Charles Clark
>weirdly pretending diversity hires aren't rampant now

That you are a GW stooge who keeps buying the newest toy without finishing your current model, a hobby sin, then come onto a message board to try and get justification for being a corporate whore, and have such a pathetic life you need to have people oo and ah over your toy soldiers? I mean, ok sure good on you?
Chase Price

> Commi can instakill a guardman without rolling to hit, wound, and armor save > Marine have a chance to fail at killing guardman at point blank range
So, is that mean Commis are better at bolter pistol than marines?
Anthony Robinson
what about your wife's son?
Jason Miller
It kind of worked
Jace Baker
For another redo of Rubrics and related units: Swap All is Dust for +1 wound and a fixed 4++ save, make all inferno bolt weapons AP -3, and cut the cost of Warpflame weapons a little.
That's a very drastic change and might be too much though.
Jack Lee
Convert GSC guys into Servitors. Yay or Nay? Also, how hard will that be? Those Tyranid symbols seem to be a bitch to remove.
Caleb Ramirez
Don't forget the Relentless part of All is Dust!
Alexander Ortiz
Of course.
Tyler Morris
That is nowhere near enough carnifexes for a proper monster mash
Asher Smith
Aside from detachment guidelines, is there any reason to take a 4x Lascannon Predator over x2 Lascannon Razerbacks?
- Same BS/Toughness - 11 Predator wounds vs 2x 10 Razerback wounds. -Razerbacks able to transport infantry
It's only saving 40 points by taking the single Predator. I mean, the rule of cool calls out for one badass tank, but is there any reason besides points, the 1 Predator stratagem and detachments that I shouldn't take the Lazerbacks?
Ryder Sullivan
Not being a WAACfag is always a good thing.
David Gomez
>i bet she's more talented that you are
Remember when Kirby's wife was hired as IT head for Games Workshop and make a shitshow of it?
I do, you obviously don't since you've showed up in the past five minutes you SJW prick.

I can't deal with nids. I either don't have enough small guns and get murdered by the gorillion bodies or get murdered by the big guys because I mistakenly thought I could bring enough small guns to kill the little guys.

Anyone who exports goods benefits when the exchange rate decreases slightly. Using brexit to cause that is like giving yourself ebola to lose weight...
