Reposting since we move through these threads way to fast to keep up.
Are Imperial Guard Mechanized lists viable in this edition? Good tactics/strategies to use when running a mechanized list?
Also, anyone have experience with casting their own models? I want Armageddon Steel Legion but they're so expensive and I fear they may be discontinued all together(half of them already have goddamit Geedubya). Is it expensive? Is it difficult? Will I poison myself or blow myself up?
Here's some beakies as a pre-emptive thanks(1st/2nd/3rd edition marines are peak aesthetic. All marine aesthetics after are dumb)
Yes, they are. Pure in soul that is. They are regular sluts that'll shag anyone tho. And that's okay.
Cawl is married to a homonculous. Together they made the primaris marines.

I misread that as D6D6, and thought you'd have to roll a d6 to find out how many d6 you had to roll, to find out how many melta shots you got...

>a homonculous That's a weird way to refer to the Demonculaba

I know they will never import HH Household Rank for Knights in 8th edition. Still, anybody wants to try predicting how it would look ?
HQ: >Seneschal: +50 points for WS/BS 2+ and 4++ by default >Lord Scion: +25 points for WS/BS 2+
Troops: >Scion Martial: normal Knight at no extra points but counts as multiple models for capturing objectives depending on size (Armiger counts as 5, normal Knight counts as 10) >Scion Aspirant: -30 points for WS/BS +4 and same objective secured as above
Elite: >Preceptor: +?? points for an aura that gives him and other Knights in 6" the ability to fire on deep striking unit and overwatch at 5+ >Aucteller: +?? points for a Knight that rerolls melee to hit rolls against characters and other Lords of War
Fast Attack: >Scion Dolorous: +?? points for rerolling advance and charge rolls >Scion Uhlan: free sidegrade that reduces it's armor save and BS to 4+ but increases it's movement statistic and allows it to move once before your first turn
Heavy: >Scion Arbalester: +?? points to reroll damage against vehicles and gain +1 to hit targets with Fly >Scion Implacable: +?? points to reduce enemy melee damage in half and reroll damage against buildings
It's not a daemonculaba, it's holy so it's a saintculaba.

I almost tried to put 2d6 pick the highest in there too.

It's powered by repentia. Which is the canon reason we won't see them anymore.
Grayson Campbell
Great except for her freakishly long arms.

They probably wont use normal organization charts, I think that GW wants Knights to stay in the Lord of War detachment and the fact that Armigers were made to fill it up without too many points kind of pushes that idea.
As for the ranks, they will most likely be auras similar to their formation in 7th, so a full court would work as a team empowering each other.
doubt they will go that route, knights are already pretty strong right now, and the fact we already got armigers and the new knight is on the way. but they will probably roll some of that stuff into strategems or relics that can be taken.
>well I've taken my models and painted them >better jack up the price 500% on ebay! You know, I can understand if you're painting something on commission and jacking up the price because at least its what the customer wanted. But I do not understand a persons mentality on painting something and then expecting someone to paint hundreds more over the regular price. "But muh time" Then do commissions. Don't waste your own time.
Leo Cooper
Yeah, GW probably didn't realize that Veeky Forums's autism can't take a joke when it comes to it's tumblr-tier obsession with shipping.
Jack Brown
Maybe they continue to do it because it works?
Caleb Hughes
I literally have no idea what you're talking about and I started in 8th so I'm gonna guess what you want no longer exists in 8th.
Grayson Phillips
Chimeras are definitely a sub-obtimal choice compared to tauroxes (not to mention that transports for regular infantry squads might not even be worth more than just more infantry squads)

Question: With blasters becoming D:d3, what's the point of dark lances? Is it just for the extra-range
>5 point guardsmen acceptable, please just give us vets in troop slot >LR losing grinding advance oh good so the tank's even worse now >14 point scions aren't marines 13 points? >chance to fail orders applied to everyone I don't know what to think about this

Hey Fa/tg/uys, I have a conundrum. I got two immolators and a repressor upgrade kit. This has left me with one complete Immolator and a Repressor with no pintle mount hatch covers. If I get another rhino, I can get my covers and complete another Immolator. Or I could hit up eBay. What should I do?
Josiah Perry
Yeah user, don't worry. He's in a better place now
>5 point guardsmen I hope somehow R&H just become the poorman's cheap worthless guard and retain their cheapness.
Aaron Taylor
Video games always pandered to the most common denominator, and that are plebs that want Eldar to be the fap-race, otherwise they wouldn't give a shit about them. Just like Veeky Forums.

I ordered custom dice and they arrived today. Very pleased.
This is the same brand of bullshit as those joke Ork (Klan) traits we saw a couple threads ago. GW may not be good at balancing, but they would not shit on an army this badly. This comically eclipses the post-codex FAQ nerf.
Jordan Reyes
I just want fucking vets in the troop slot especially if they actually make Scions 14 fucking points >pay more than a marines cost for a worse statline, the same amount of special weapons and a mediocre standard firearm Don't even get me started on grinding advance being axed. The Battlecannon Russ is mediocre as is, the rest of the variants aside from the Punisher will become even worse >1 shot vanquisher that can't even crack vehicles
I sincerely hope you're right user I'm fine with 5 point guardsmen, I really am, I just want troop vets again but the rest of these nerfs are ridiculous, it has to be fanfiction

>knights are already pretty strong right now, >God no they're not. Compare to Leman Russe's or Onagers and they are inefficient. only if you are running them as tank killers, you keep them screened and you can clear house with them. you keep them screened and you keep your ion shields, can lay down serious fire and all the wounds they means its going to take 2 solid turns of dedicated anti-tank fire to possibly drop one. not to mention any imperial faction can run knights, while russ's are not great and get popped the second a wind blows their way, and if you are playing mechanicus, onagers are more efficient tank hunters, but if you are looking for an 'all comers' walker, knights are your only option since you pretty much have to keep them standing still all game long if you want to hit anything.
