Warhammer 40.000 General /40kg/

Sternguard
Planning some shenanigans with drop-podding next to a Chapter Master and rapid-firing with the Masterful Marksmanship strat

for a 1000 point game as guard, would it generally be better to run a battalion with a bunch of hellhounds and russes, or a brigade with only one russ and a few scout sentinels?

Am i a retard?

So how do you all think they're going to port over the rules for various Forge World Custodes units?

It seems like a lot of their special rules and such don't transfer wellnin 8th.

For example, the anti-deepstrike. How would the transfer that?

"If an enemy unit deepstrikes within 12" they suffer 3d3 mortal wounds." Perhaps?

Then there's their Strength reducing ability and more.

One is good for casual play, two is shooting yourself in the foot.

You’re honestly just kind of a huge dick

>So how do you all think they're going to port over the rules for various Forge World Custodes units?

They'll do it like they ported over Admech rules.

Yup. It’s more for 30k, but they’re there for fun more than anything.

It’s already confirmed that many FW Custode units are getting rule adaptions for the army within a few months.

I was actually thinking about this too. What will Severing Strike do, how about cyber familiars? I really want to see what those fire pike terminators do, a S6 torrent flamer would be slick in 40k, it'll probably just get a 12" range to replace torrent.

>Doesn't know how to read.

Banana guards points when?

Why I can't post pics? wtf

Did they seriously remove 5++ from the custard land raider?

youtu.be/RoteXw6NK88?t=1h28m50s

>Missing the joke

Probably in a week, as preorders just went up

Are fliers really that strong? I just wanted to make an army to remind me of my granddad, he was a sergeant in 1st cav.

ork trukk/learning how to graffiti the sides. also waiting for my new admech to come in.

This OP image definitely won't cause confusion.

Oh I got it, it's just that jokes are supposed to be funny.

>didn't need to search catalogue for thread i just saw the image and knew it was /40kg/
maybe it's hard if you're retarded

Well, I hoped for leaks or pics desu

I made a grown man throw a tantrum with three Hemlocks. Not proud of it.

W E W LAD

Still missing it.

> It was a jest.

I dunno'... maybe humour is hard to get if you're retarded.

Go full Gunline & take two Battalions and a Spearhead Detachment.
>Battalion 1 - 215p
HQ1 - Company Commander Boltgun & Chainsword - 31p
HQ2 - Company Commander Boltgun & Chainsword - 31p
Troop 1 - Mortar & Grenade Launcher + Boltgun Sarg - 51p
Troop 2 - Mortar & Grenade Launcher + Boltgun Sarg - 51p
Troop 3 - Mortar & Grenade Launcher + Boltgun Sarg - 51p
>Battalion 2 - 215p

HQ2 - Company Commander Boltgun & Chainsword - 31p

Troop 2 - Mortar & Grenade Launcher + Boltgun Sarg - 51p
Troop 3 - Mortar & Grenade Launcher + Boltgun Sarg - 51p
>Spearhead -
HQ - Executioner Russ with Plasma Sponsons & Lascannon - 241p
HS 1 - Heavy Weapon Teams 3x Lascannons - 78p
HS 2 - Heavy Weapon Teams 3x Lascannons - 78p
HS 3 - Leman Russ with Heavy Bolters & Stubber - 172p (or a Punisher)
Total 995p

>friendly bold keyword Imperium

Lemme pull up that one image with a bunch of them, just a moment user

see

>1000 points
Definitely a battalion. It’ll be difficult to work your way through 12 CPs in a game that size.

It’s not that. Just tons of artillery and basically minimizing any real infantry leaves a bad taste in the mouth.

Then again it’s really not your fault since Guard are very OP at the moment.

>heavy support first on the list
>still using conscripts
>not giving his officers bolter & chainswords
>using autocannons at all

Banana boat no longer has invuln? Can anyone confirm?

What? The LR? Yes it does

FTN said no more invuln

So what codex next after Custards?

>im not editing that many lines of text on mobile
>infantry in arty sections were notoriously unprofessional
>i might do that, thanks
>i like autocannons

Aren't reviewers getting codices and battletomes just after or before the pre-orders day? IIRC we usually see some pics or scans before pdfs

the two lists I was considering were...

List 1 (battalion)
Company commander
Tank commander (battle cannon, lascannon, plas sponsons)
Primaris psyker
5 infantry squads with plasmaguns
Leman russ (battle cannon, lascannon, bolter sponsons)
2 hellhounds with track guards

List 2 (brigade)
2 company commanders
primaris psyker
command squad (regimental standard)
astropath
enginseer
6 infantry squads with plasmaguns
Leman russ (executioner cannon, lascannon, plas sponsons)
2 heavy weapon squads (2 heavy bolters and 1 lascannon each)
3 scout sentinels (1 autocannon, 2 heavy flamer)

Clearly, the next dex is going to be the greatest threat to the golden throne
THE ORKS!

defs necorns

I'd say they're full of it, not buying it. The dread still has his and they've yet to confirm the LR's situation

We'll known once the book drops.

1ksons you fucking idiot

spoilers..dammit

They were looking at the dex and LR has no aegis of the emprah

I WANNA POST PICS
DAMMIT HIROYUKI STOP FUCKING WITH THE SERVERS

Can't you just imgur them?

Winters' codex review doesn't mention any changes to the LR, in fact he says its the same

Hiroshimoot fix your shit

It very much is funny unless you're an admechfag

How do you Anons tailor your low model count armies to beat Nid and Guard waacfags?

Give me some ideas for slaaneshi DP conversion, maybe some good 3rd party bits?

Anybody have Last Hunt epub?

Oh my god who cares literally nobody with an ounce of common sense or taste will be taking a Custodes land raider in the first place

I like the 2nd one better but it seems like there's a lot of chaff points and not a lot of anti-tank

Raging Hereos has things that could work.

There is the classic winged naked goat girl with exposed tits, but I can’t remember who made the model

...

But land raider looks neat - I like the mark I design

I figure the 3 lascannons combined with overcharged plasma will handle tanks. The vostroyan stratagem makes the overcharge safe for the Executioner, and I take the Laurels of command so half the time I can have squads with Take Aim and Rank Fire at the same time.

Bloodwrack Medusa with Herald of Slaanesh bits on a Daemon Prince base.
Put a boltgun or similar on the end of the spear for warp bolter, Possessed backpack wings if you want to give her wings, the Herald of Slaanesh claws can be your malefic talons, if you want a hellforged sword I recommend Dark Eldar Incubus swords but the modelling might be difficult.
Not sure what you should do for an axe, I never had much interest in using the hellforged axe.

B-but there's a strategem that requires two land raiders...

I like the idea of a 2+ rerollable set of 4 lascannons, desu

Could go old school and put a minotaur head on the demon prince model or convert one of the big beastmen giants that already come with four arms.

wait we cant?

Cygors are too big methinks
You'd be shooting yourself in the foot

What would akko be? I assume an Ogryn because shes retarded.

servers were fucked for a second there, I was getting connection errors too

>not using excessive sizes
Do you even Slaanesh?!

This. Can't shitpost on an image board without images.

nah she's an ork
fucking gestalt power of belief bullshit that only works when the plot demands

Maybe one of the Vietnamese women that Hiroshima moot hate so much bump the servers?

I wouldn't want my DP to get shot from anywhere on the map by anyone because they're big and hairy

This happens every once in a while, when you try a minute later, it works again.
Yeah, the likely case is that Hiro cheaps out on hosting.

Look at this pleb.

I play harlies. The Web way strat got rid of alot of my issues. Generally I have more attacks than they have bodies

Working on more gargoyles, about to finish the 10 that come from the old SC! box, although I stripped one today because it was shit. Trying to figure out how to paint faster without being shit.

A friend of mine plays clowns and he is having issue using that strat.
The bastard uses mostly clowns in boats made out of wet cardboard

Dropping a tranposrt or bike seems rather useless and a squad of clowns dropped on their own seem to not survive anything

Finished an LR only to realize I forgot to remove mould lines on the lascannons and engine exhausts
I don't give a fuck though, that thing was so infuriating to build that I'll leave them there as punishment

T H I C C

Well now I want a Minotaur Daemon Prince to go with my Bloodwrack Herald Daemon Prince.
Feel like I'll leave this one without wings so, should I still use the Daemon Prince base body and modify it? What head would be best? Cygor is too ugly for my tastes, I want it to be a kind of majestic bull head.
I'm tempted to use the Daemonic Axe but I honestly can't see a single reason to use it, +1 strength and some bonus AP isn't worth -1 to hit.

...

Run a max size squad of harlies and a shadowseer. Put both into Web way. Turn one movement put them both down and use the psychic to move up to a 2inch charge while still enjoying the minus one to wound. This hits hard enough and creates a big enough distraction to allow the rest of the army to move up.
Or cheap out and put in a solitaire and distraction carnifex it.

GIVE TORCHSTAR A MINIATURE
that looks exactly like this

...

>Diana is an Imperial psyker
>Constaze is the resident Techpriest
>Akko is the Ork they keep around because they feel sorry for it
>Suzy is either a Fabius Bile-tier Chaos cultist, or a Dark Eldar haemonculus
>Shiny Chariot is one of the lost Primarchs

Neat go back to marines and field a Contemptor Mortis then.

Didn't she die in the gulf?

Sorry user I'm not a faggot
