/40kg/ - Warhammer 40,000 General

Soon

Alright, I have a serious problem.

I hate painting. Like really hate it, but I am too poor to buy models AND have someone paint them for me.

I have 10k points of orks, 4k of marines, 4k of admech, and 2k of necrons.

They are all painted, and I hated every minute of it. Please convince me not to buy any more models ever. Once I am done with the 15 or so ork models I have left I think I am quitting painting forever (read: until some awesome unit comes out that I must own, or I get bored and convert yet another super ork vehicle)

>I hate painting

That's like 50% of the hobby user. Why invest so much money and time into something you hate?

Why didn't you give up buying half of that shit and spend the money on having professionals do it for you?

And apparently get it done and THEN whine abou it on Veeky Forums?

Nigga the average lazy faggot doesn't paint anything, if you bothered to paint 10k pts of Orks be proud unless it's totally god-awful you're doing better than most people in the hobby

I know less can be more, but don't Slaaneshi options in the Daemon codex look a bit lacking compared to other gods?

They do but they always have, and I like having an army that people always go "It does what now?"
In a word a dark horse. Also if other people think the army doesn't have teeth it makes it more satisfying to me if/when I beat them.

Bout 1/3 of my army. I also have 10 meganobz, 4 leaders in mega armor, 3 dakka jets, 12 killa kanz, 4 dreadnaughts, 2 gorkanauts, a morkanaut, stompa, knight modeled as an ork, 3 battlewagons, 9 custom trukks, 4 deffkoptas, 6 warbuggies, and the 15 lootas I never bothered painting.

I like changing my army around alot. One week I may want to run a dreadmob, the next green tide, mabye after that da deffwing, with meganobs in trukks and battlewagns with biker support, just so much variety.

Slaanesh hasn't gotten a recent model refresh like the other gods have. So their model line is smaller. These days GW doesn't provide rules for models they don't make.

>Ultrasmurfs are becoming less and less Romans in space, becoming more generic which every new edition
>Custards are pretty much (loyal) praetorian guards in space, with ancient greek themes sprinkled on top of it.
Glad to see the classical antiquity theme hasn't been dropped altogether.

Admech deal in lots of Dakka, and having a surprising punch in melee. They can, with the right synergies and Army choices, be a very effective force, even if they aren't very mobile at times.

What stats does Greyfax have now on 8th edition? She's cheap on ebay, I might buy her to use her, or just buy her and convert.

She's really good, and she's got great conversion potential. basically buy another head and a weapon and you've got an entirely new model.

You can find her stats in Imperial index #2

She is painfully average as a character, but denies 3 powers a turn.

She denies two, actually

Battle for Nocturne when

>tfw no skitarii fu

That’s ok, I really can’t be asked to drive to warhammer world for a single game.

Next Summer Campaign, possibly

And has +1 to deny rolls if I remember right. Also LD10 bubble is useful with Guard. I think she costs 85 points.

Post gaems

I don't think GW cares about the map. I think that they believe they can get you to care about the map without caring about the map themselves.

Just ordered mine

She's good. She's a very good anti-psyker relative to her fairly low points cost because she gets two denies at +1 to the roll. She also can snipe psykers with a pretty nasty gun which is handy vs. The cheap spammable ones and provides a nice Ld. boosting aura. Her main weakness is she's pretty vulnerable in melee.

Wrong.

You live in Nottingham too mate?

This The Rock was near Fenris in the rule book map, then in the Dark Angel codex is was on the otherside of the rift near Baal.

The reason that suits work well for Tau is that they have the fly keyword, so they can shoot on the turn that they fall back. Normally when you fall back with a unit that unit can't shoot, you're just making room for your other units to shoot was they're falling back from, but not with suits, they get to put out their shooting no matter what.

She is Class A character fodder for converters into Inq28 and the like. Substitute heads from Statuesque Minis and other make her pretty great on that note. Replace that Stake-Bolter with a Phosphor Pistol from the AdMech line and you have a very baroque mini.

Any anons on /40kg/ have some cool ideas for admech paint schemes i can steal?

nothing "lives" in nottingham la

That is one ugly fucking format

Unf.

I need this so bad.

Vulkan lives, motherfuckers.

Fester then

nigger the rock is capable of self locomotion planets arent

Can’t The Rock move?

>go to ebay to see if I can snag some custodes for cheap before the release
>see this: ebay.com/itm/Allarus-Custodians-Adeptus-Custodes-Commission-Superbly-Painted-Warhammer-40K/273025490466?hash=item3f91965e22:g:TIkAAOSwYDZaW8zh
>mfw
selling """""""highly detailed paint jobs""""""""""" for 255 fucking dollars before the damn models are even released.
The jewishness of ebay "pro-painters" never ceases to amaze me

Use constanzes color palette

Asked the other day but didn't get any response :(

Anyone have any suggestions for a Lias Issodon model? The FW Mor Deythan models look good but thats $$.

Gold and yellow robes with red highlightz

Here's the only game I ever took a picture of. It was Nurgle + Orks vs. Eldar.

...Instead of saying that the Orks were corrupted we decided that both the daemons and the orks slowly stopped fighting each other and turned on the Eldar after they showed up. That's believable, right?

Are you high? The rock is a giant space ship well really it's a chunk of a planet with rockets attached, not a fucking planet

Craftworlds, DEldar or Harlequins?

Through the great Rift? The whole schlick with it was no one could travel through.

what kind of zerg are those

Whoop whoop

Space Juggalos

If you enjoy painting? Harlequins. If you don't? Craftworld. Undecided goes to DE.

>Flash Gitz
I respect this madman.

Craftworld til the codex for the other too drop.

As a Dark Eldar & Harlequin player, you're gonna get you're shit shoved in by codex players even if you go Ynarri unless you include Craftworld bullshit.

Yes. Post-Heresy someone dared them to put a Warp Drive on the remains of their homeworld and they actually did it. The absolute madmen.

Blue and bronze.

Make him from Deathwatch bits and just swap out the left shoulder pad for a normal one. DW have plenty of fancy gun bits and tacticool doodads.

me to her want the dick

>tfw you one shot Pedro with a Heavy Rail Gun

Poor bastard

You know the answer

Leicester, not too far but still.

>too poor
bitch it took me 2 years to get 3000 points of orks

Are DW marines compatible with normal shoulder pads? I've never looked at the models.

Good idea though.

>TFW you no longer have the same willingness to paint your stuff when your marginally got better at it

it's your fluff user.
>nurgle herald has a personal grudge againts knife ears
>orks are pants shitting retards and just want to smash the shiny things
>herald shrugs and proceeds to murderfuck his preferred foe and laugh as one of the oldest races are drowned in screaming retards.

Always harliquins, always.

Are we all posting where we are from so we can meet up for games/bum sex?

Does it make me a faggot for starting to lose my excitement for Custodes now that I know they're going to be super popular?

White and orange

1st for Custodes gonna nip this rebellion in the bud.

>imperium release
>super popular

woooooooooow who could have expected this

Only if you are from Nottingham. I am going to Rock city fairly soon

Yes. The only thing you can't mix is torso halves. Because of the Mk8 both the front and back of the torso have to be either DW or non DW. Almost everything else can mix and match, including complete torsos.

...

Yes.

>tfw admech have a whole planet which they move around and can travel through the warp

>When the special snowflake faction is super popular.

id only step foot in notts if i had an armed escort with me

Thanks all, buying her now

Subscribe speak the truth, go with constance palette

That's just a ring station AROUND a planet
unless I've missed something

there's a couple of passages through, not easy to traverse because of pirates and chaos dudes but this is rock we're talking about, it's well armed enough to take on a fleet and has cutie alien dudes who scare the willies out of daemons

...

shit you right. that's what i get for reading the codex at 4am.

There's a passage in the northwest called the Nachmund Gauntlet. It's just clogged with a bunch of Traitor Titan Legions and other CSM stuff at the moment. In the galactic southeast there's the Temporary Rift Corridor, which seems less defended, but less stable.

Yeah not too bad, I live 15 mins from WHW so was just wondering

Fiends of Slaanesh are terribly overcosted.
46 points each is insane.
They can be useful in a few occasions, but never bring more than you really need.

Just know that I'd paint them exactly like pic related for maximum cringe.

I thought about running a psycher heavy Craftworlds list that hits enemy moral (Hemlocks, Mindwar, Horrify etc.) but apparently GW is hellbent on shitting on psychers. The models are beautiful though, especially the fliers.

>mfw live in Nottingham
>mfw I live in the Meadows

Y'All are bitches Nottingham is plenty safe

How do you know Cawl isn't a lady?

May you be blessed with powerful denies and shapely boobplate.

cawl is not a skitarius
he acts like one but he isn't

If GW dropped their prices across the board by something crazy like 50%, do you think they could acquire a wave of new customers? Would they make as much money as currently?
