Dubs decides my chapters colors

WHERE IS THE MIND DAKKA?

Unpainted plastic with pink stripes

Orange and mint

Alright think I'm gonna paint my dreads like exorcists and use the sally chapter tactics

Fuk

Well that was fast.

How many nulns do they crush just to make one pot of nuln oil?

Dubs decides how long we ban "dubs decides" posters

Reposting from last thread for C&C. 1000pts Black Templar list, single battalion (so 6CP).Anything helps.

>HQ
- Jump pack Captain: power sword + storm bolter, The Crusader Helmet (99)
- Lieutenant: Lightning claw + storm bolter (70)
>Troops
- Crusader squad: storm bolter + chainsword on the sarge, 1 heavy bolter, 3 bolters (77)
--- rides in a twin ass-cannon Razorkback + stormbolter (116)
- Crusader squad: combi-plasma + chainsword on the sarge, 1 plasmagun, 1 heavy bolter, 2 bolters (103)
- Crusader squad: combi-flamer + chainsword, 1 lascannon, 3 bolters (101)
>Elite
- 5 Vanguard Vets: jump packs, power sword + storm shield + melta bombs (sergeant), 1 pair of chainswords, 1 pair of Lightning claws, 2 TH+SS (158)
- 5 Vanguard Vets: jump packs, power axe + chainsword (sarge), 1 pair of plasma pistols, 1 guy with chainsword + storm shield, 2 TH+SS (156)
>Heavy support
- Devastator squad: bolter + chainsword (sarge), 2 missile launchers, 2 bolters, 1 Armorium cherub (120)

Plan is to put Lieutenant + plasma squad OR storm bolter/heavy bolter squad in the Razorback (depending on if I face a horde army or a more elite one) and try and join the deep-striking Captain and Vets. VanVets then aim for the vehicles, and failing that, charge whatever unit they can. Devastators and lascannon team try and shoot vehicles from afar.

Questions I have so far:
- is 33 models to low a count for 1000pts?
- is keeping the Vanguard Vets versatile a good idea? I feared keeping every thunderhammer in the same squad would draw too much attention on them, now the opponent shouldn't really know what to focus on - but I probably lose on effectiveness.

Just one has lasted them so far

They mostly use vegan nuln alternatives these days.

How often do you guys play games of over 2,000 points?

I just don't play at all

Shooty chaos army, how good are obliterators in it?

Almost all of my games with both my armies are 3k.

Never. I always play 1500pts games.

dubs decides how big of a faggot this guys is

Giga

Obliterators are the new hotness. They're taken in the tournament scene. I'd say they're almost mandatory in a chaos shooting list, but don't go overboard and bring 3 Max units or your opponent will be sad.

im like i'm just here to shitpost

Yellow with white checks

Like, once a month. We're playing an escalation campaign though and in a month, we're going to get to the 2000pts games, plus an apocalypse we're planning. I think they're the most fun to play.

Such honesty is rare these days, on teh interwebz

Mega faggor

I've only played 1,000 pt games because I'm schizo and can't stick to one army. Good news is that I've swapped armies so many times that I'm starting to come back around to armies I've already used. I'll be ready for 2,000 pt games soon.

I particularly like games of over 2000 points, because it gives my Necrons even less chance of winning, and it takes longer too!

I cucked a person I've known for years and all I feel is accomplishment

I'm building an army that will be 2000 points. When I get more models and go above that I'm sure I'll play a game above 2k, but until then I want to try and find small games, or well first of all actually build and paint my models then find a game.

Dark Angels Party Cruise level.

I want to bring just two units.

Let's not be TOO honest here
You're a bad person and you should feel bad

I'd ally with your necrons user to help you, but my army isn't that amazing either.

Going to kitbash 3 obliterators for my Black Legion army. I have a bunch of old metal nurgle terminators. Do I just glue a bunch of guns to their arms, and then greenstuff some flesh over that? Anything else I should do?

Dubs decide if "dubs decide" is allowed in /40kg/ any more

dubs decide the next tau unit I buy.

yes

Just buy obliterators. Terminator conversions look like shit. Especially metal ones.

Manta

5x riptides

some times i jerk it to trap hentai, but im not gay, like actually.

always

i never got what the 'DA is gay' meme was about. like is it about the lion? what makes them more gay than other chapters?

fuck spending 20 bucks a model for an ancient pewter sculpt that isn't even good to begin with

500 points of Kroot Hounds.

you're all faggots. Yes, even the ironic ones.
As 'dubs decides' are incitation to spam, they are against the rules. Just report them.

What makes em gay is their relentless homo lust

a better army you weeb

Manta

KX139 Ta'unar Supremacy Armour

1. 33 models is fine and since you've taken a good variety of anti-horde and anti-tank only really skewed lists are going to get you.
2. Splitting those thunderhammers will keep them alive but also just causes both to be focused and vanguard are not tanky. You could have the TH+SS guys in one squad and leverage there flight advantage to spring on tanks from safety and also take the heat for your other squads.

explain in more detail though.

Your metal terminators are shorter than marinelets. Why would you think they'd make suitable obliterators?

The fact that they love cock makes them gay

Nice. What I wanted anyway.
First post to answer tells me whether it's china or real. Evens = china odds = original

china

...

Fuck off faggot

So I've decided to embrace my inner National Socialist and buy some Forgeworld stuff, what exactly should I get for my Iron Warriors? I love the Deredeo Dred, but it seems to me the Decimator is way more efficent points-wise. If it helps, I'm looking for a backline gunner that feels weighty enough for the IW, perhaps artillery even.

Alternatively, is there an effective, full-on-melee unit that is too good to ignore? The leviathan seems fantastic, but without any way to deep strike it, seems like it would just get focused down during its march up the board before I get to rip and tear.

never. While I have more than 2k points of models, once I go over about 1850, it becomes less a carefully-crafted army list, and more an hodge-podge of just putting in every unit I own.

>5
Oh well, rip wallet.

Jesus Christ from that list of stuff you're looking at you'll be on a watchlist for life. Stay safe my proud NatSoc brother.

this is Veeky Forums, fun is allowed here you assburger

Is it possible to build models while eating kebab, without making a mess?

they're fine if its relevant to 40k you colossal faggot

basilisk

I don't even watch anime or read manga.

Any good music fitting Tau Empire?

Unless you're a caveman, yes

>kebab

Thanks for the tips user

>tfw actually thinking about taking a mainly unpainted/primed army to GW so I can play the game and get used to it even though my army isn't ready

How much would I be shit on doing this? I want to eventually have everything painted but I'm just so desperate to play as well.

It already is impossible to build models without making a mess, never mind adding kebabs into the mix.

reading manga or watching anime has nothing to do with being a weeb, a weeb is someone who loves japan beyond everything
painters make up like 1/3 of the community, youll be fine

hey user's any advice for painting black for larger nid flesh? i'm trying to paint my hive fleet as kronos and dont wanna fuck up trygon prime in the SC box.

it's literally impossible to eat kebab without making a mess

I have to pay reinforcement points for Daemonic Ritual, yes?

If so, how would I summon a Great Unclean One in a Death Guard army? Would I need to have a second detachment of Nurgle Daemons?

Related question: Are there any key differences between Plaguebearers in the Death Guard codex, and Plaguebearers in the new Chaos Daemons codex? Would either unit recieve/be denied buffs depends on which detachment they were part of?

I'm trying to cobble together a halfway-fluffy "Small warband of Nurgle's favorite Terminators summon a bunch of daemons to give SpaceAIDs to a new world".

You described 95% of players at GW stores, don't worry about it

Eh, as much as I like them, the problem with the basilisk is that I'd have to complete a Renegade detatchment, and I don't think the tags line up very well, leaving me with either a useless Ren HQ, or completely circumventing the IW warlord trait.

You can't eat kebab without making a mess mate.

Use a knife and fork you pleb.

I don't like Japan neither though

Is taking Celestine and twins in a 1000pt game a dirty move?

I play pure sisters, and she's my favourite painted model, but it seems like she might be tough to deal with at that point level.

youtube.com/watch?v=U06jlgpMtQs

It's only dirty if you hot glue her when she's on the table.

against which army?

Not dirty, only retards complain about her

there are ways to have fun without putting the thread on bump-limit pointlessly though.
This is perfectly fine in my opinion for example, and not too far from dubposting. Long strings of 'fuckface the facefucker', 'pdkzbfoz'zbf', 'benis :DDD lol', 'Gaylord McFaggay the Third', etc. to name a character, with no other contribution to the thread, aren't that fun - to me at least.

Then you clearly aren't one.
She isn't that strong by herself, not really primarch tier.

Anyone have a pet squad/unit you always take even if they're shit? Personally, I always take my 5 man CSM squad with plasma plasma and combi-plasma. They never do much, but they try. I could take like 30 cultists instead, but nope.

asking for paint schemes and shit would be fine if people took it remotely seriously/weren't fags.

Never

it's not a fucking kebab if you use a knife and fork

Dunno, not played a game in months and it's usually just against who ever else is at the store without any friends.

>She isn't that strong by herself, not really primarch tier.

That's good to know, what worried it would be like taking Magnus or something along.

and people would probably take it much more seriously without the whole dub thing. Remove the dub, everyone wins

My Chaos Lord dual-wields plasma and bolt pistols, t's pretty lame, but looks so cool.

>is taking named special characters in a tiny point game dirty
.........

It's not really something in the game, but I always keep a Tweak or a Blot from Silver Tower next to my exsorc warlord in my 1ks army as his personal familiar, I always like putting one of the two next to him as his personal helper.

but user, how do you pick a winner?

She doesn't confer rerolls ot extra CP though

I need some real advice anons, I started SW and don't know what company to paint my dudes. I've got all the named characters models but I'm not sure whos company I wanna commit to.
