If you think about it, and no gymnastics required, can't you have 9 hardpoints on the coldstar?

Nth for just remove the coldstar from the fucking codex with the errata so we don't have to deal with tau players mental gymnastics or just take the patrician route and squat them alltogether

What can we call Chaos Primaris)?
We need a trademarkable name!

As long as it's plastic...

What will happen after the last codex release? We are not close nut not far either

It's your model, why not?

>repeating but ending in
No. That is not how that works.

Chaos Chimeras

Primeretics

If there are rules for looted vehicles in the Orks codex it'll be the best thing to happen to Orks in a decade

Loyal centurions and lots of greenstuff.

A fuck ton of greenstuff

an assload of greenstuff

Uh yes it is. Haven't you heard of infinitesimals?

A lot of support systems have no visible indicator.

So nowhere.

Shouldn't the Riptide have 3 ion accelerators? One for its arm and both shoulders?

I'm hoping for just massively increasing the costs.

step 1. swap its missile pod for a missile pod and a plasma rifle
step 2. swap its missile pod for a missile pod and a plasma rifle
step 3. swap its missile pod for a missile pod and a plasma rifle
...
step 100. swap its missile pod for a missile pod and a plasma rifle

RAW a coldstar can have a high output burst cannon, 100 plasma rifles and 2 support systems. Where is your dakka now ork?

It's perfectly fluffy though, Tau is the shooty faction.

You have to do it with coldstar, user. That's what the argument is about. You need to have both, and you need to swap both. The only reason it's an issue is that the high output burst cannon isn't on the ranged list, so they couldn't copy paste it.

It's Fate weaver, don't think about it.

Shooty faction? But this unit clearly has BS2+.

No one said that was WAAC, dude.

That is a pretty poor choice, but it sure looks fun. Dumbing 200 Plasma shots into a Knight and then dying sounds very For the Greater Good like.

Make sure to save points for a laughing Ethereal in reserves, who never joins the fight because the Commander took up the rest of your points.

How would a new GW knight be resin you dumb shit

I don't care

Why did you post this.

Post "Your dudes" or stuff you've been working on

Honestly for something like a Leman Russ I could still see that being worthwhile as a ranged anti-elite option for an ork army, even with BS5+

nah its basically the size of a normal knight

>orks taking artemia pattern hellhounds

yes please

>step 1. swap its burst cannon and missile pod for a missile pod and a plasma rifle...

Doesn't look like it, RAW looks like it can have 4 choices, period

You might want to learn English, buddy.

Alternatively, ask your parents, they might understand the language better than you.

Why are the demon primarch so fuck hueg?

I already have Supa Skorcha Bigtrakks.
Nothing in the greenskin armory is even close to a Punisher short of the Stompas gun array.

No, let's ask you, a complete retard, how to read english.

>where do you glue the 5th weapon to?

Slaying enemies of the Greater Good with your crotch mounted High Output Burst Cannon

You know this would make your Ethereals happy.

tau suits have 8 hardpoint slots on the model, so its not hard

Lets you swap two of your original weapons for two different ones. Then it allows you to take two more
You get 4

I've been running 4 zoanthropes and 2 neurothropes in every single list since the codex dropped desu. A deepstriking character is pretty much the least frightening thing ever.

Then they'd just be princes

No more talk about Tau Commanders please.

Instead, let us discuss their elites.

>Crisis Battlesuits
>Stealth Battlesuits
>Ghostkeel Battlesuit
Which to choose, and why? I feel like Stealth Battlesuits no longer give a solid reason for existing. They are pretty terrible at firepower, they are nowhere near as difficult to wound as they used to be, and are rather expensive.

Crisis suits are super expensive now, and while they add some much needed anti-tank, considering how strong even regular fire warriors are at this task, I am not even sure why this is needed. Maybe for Ion blasters, but even then, it seems a bit sketchy.

And then we have the Ghostkeel... It kinda just feels like the flat out best choice, doesn't it? It is literally a Riptide, except half the price, with better weapons, and effective without having to kill itself.

>princes
Deamon princess when?

God I want to see Orks loot any and all vehicles in game and have white dwarf make instructions to make them Orky.
Looted Fire Prism.
Looted devil fish.
Looted deldar boat thing.
Looted uhhh... Tyrannocyte?
>Zog me, iz all sticky in ‘ere
>Were da fugs da exit butt’n?

Look at the fucking shoulders. You can tell they just stretched them out away from the body in 3dmax or whatever they use because they needed room for more guns but were too lazy to redesign.

was this on purpose?

read the rule closer, you only need to swap one of the starting weapons to get 2 extra, then you take 2 more

>tfw i unironically put 2 hbcs, 4 plasmas 4 fusions and 8 missile pods on my riptides + shield
moar dakka

>implying a vindicare is good at killing characters

Good luck finding someone that lets you cheat like that

No.
No more talk about Tau. Period

Lets discuss why all the imperium codecies are getting released before one of the most played race, Orks.

>Lets you swap two of your original weapons for two different ones. Then it allows you to take two more
Or it lets you swap out 1 for 2, along with the standard 2 you can normally take. Basic math:
>2+2
>(2-1)+2+2

Can the ghostkeel have 5 hardpoints?

Of course

>this is still technically WYSIWYG

This is the last thing I've finished (well aside from the base, which I'll do tomorrow), but I've posted it a couple of times already.

I just bought a bunch of CSM stuff on ebay I'm going to paint in a similar aesthetic (dark blue/black/grey with bone helmets and stuff) though, which should be fun.

Tomorrow is basing and maybe back to work on the Dred Mob

>hide 1996 points of neurothropes behind one gaunt

How is one model hiding you from a model that moves 20"/40"?

Making LotD a playable chapter was a mistake.

I just saw GW's promise of plastic Sisters in 2019

What was the general reception to this?

Not really that big a surprise, there was already a size discrepancy between some of the Primarchs anyway and them being jacked up on chaos makes it unsurprising they'd grow

that was my thinking. i dont even play tau thought i just got 2 riptides for cheap

Me too. Not because I have the weapons, just because it looks awesome. I had a Crisis suit with 4 flamers on the profile. I added 8, just for fun.

Don't mind the autistic sperglords so much, they'll stop once they get bored or take their meds.

Not shit talking, but are orks actually one of the most played races? The impression I get is that they're fairly rare, except amongst some die hard old players. Not that deathwatch or whatever is more common, mind.

He's okay. He'll probably put 2 wounds on most per turn, which kills the weaker buffing/sniper characters in two turns and once in a blue moon will stick 6 wounds on one.

Even on their own site, Orks are NPCs

>the exact interpretation of the rules is cheating

user i have some bad news for you

They've been playable for over 20 years user. Why do you hate fun?

>Astra Militarum 10%
>Still no real support from GW for 20+ year old models.

>Hardpoints
Why are people suddenly talking about this as if it means something?

This is the absolute only mention of hard points anywhere in the new codex.

Attached: hardpoints.png (459x353, 127K)

I'd kill for guilliman sized daemon princes I could field.

A metric ton of greenstuff

Remember when Deathwatch was just codex marines sternguard?

its something that used to be n 7th edition, suits had x amount of hard points that you could use

its not a thing anymore

Maybe they are getting a bunch of new models.

Who cares? But if they release new plastic models for a literal meme npc imperium faction before new chaos models (Abby model is like 18 years old)
I will stop collecting.
