>>95886639 (OP)>What are you working on?Painting up some DA indomitus terminators #Ibelieve
>>95886639 (OP)>What are you working on?Trying to work out how I want to paint my Night Lords. I'm trying to balance something easy, suitable dark, but without losing all the details and turning into a dark blob that needs 800 edge highlights.
>>95886639 (OP)I need to finish painting all these SA in time for 3.0 and an event in September, may the emperor spare my soul.
>>95886639 (OP)>TQTrying my hand at some digital art
>>95886724Krita? I need to do some digital art too but mimicking the photo style of forgeworld and digital art.
Anons on wip mentioned fotosketch that is basically a lot of filters but some are nice.
>>95886639 (OP)>What are you working on?Putting together Mechanicum stuff, finally. Although it's more for my knights who are titan vassals, so all of my robots of every size have a similar paint scheme.
Doing castellax now, they're really cool. No idea what will be good on them, but I'm thinking darkfires just because they look sick.
>>95886787My sister is a good digital artist and uses clip studio paint. Says itโs great. Iโm jealous of her drawing skills.

this came out of my proonter today all on one plate just to feel out such a tall model's being made along with a swathe of other stuff (was sat on its butt in orientation)
really loading up a plate seems to induce pressure aberrations of some form or another with so much of the surface area being used at once but the sheer flat panes of this really let me observe it and maybe read into the nuances a little, nothing that can't be scraped or sanded down at the end of the day, was a learning experience and i'd have been pleased to have gotten a terrain piece out of it
just surreal
quite partial to the mars rendition of the predator and this will be an interesting foil to a first party deimos
>>95886639 (OP)>TQ: Starting work on a Decurion just in time to not be sure if theyโll still exist
I wonder if you can take Saturnine Consuls/Centurions
>>95886966It might be more limited in what consuls can take it, but I would be shocked if a basic bitch centurion couldn't
>>95886927You can still buy them, they aren't last chance or anything
I bet they're going to be a command option
What if GW went full out and said:
>Fuck it. It IS a retcon. Please act like we released Saturnine since 1.0.
Would you go along with it?
>>95887066Nope. Still not buying them.
>>95887066Sure. Because this whole damn setting is a tower of retcons dating back to the Rogue Trader rulebook. Honestly the idea that people can look at nearly 40 years of retcons and then point at a single new one and go "this is too far" is just silly.
Now we can argue about what makes for a good or bad retcon, but I don't think it's worth quitting over GW doing yet another retcon.
>>95886639 (OP)>TQSame squad of proximan rifleman. I could have probably gotten them knocked out and done by now but I get so demotivated with painting with how long it takes; just those 3 rifleman's gunmetal took about an hour to do, and I still haven't even gotten to the actually important bronze part yet.
Also got distracted and started composing an objective marker, not sure if the dead marine should be a sallie or if it should be one of the other shattered legions that we're trying to save.
>>95887066I'm pretty sure anytime new shit is mentioned/introduced like this it is supposed to be a soft retcon desu, I don't know why people get so butthurt over shit like this. Heresy would be boring if we just played with the same handful of units every single edition and re-lived the same stories over and over again.
>>95887066They implied different terminator armor existed even in 1.0, even naming saturnine.
They're being pushed with the 3.0 box because it's the cool new thing, but in universe they're fancy but otherwise unremarkable (as unremarkable as terminator armor/dreadnoughts get, anyway)
>>95887084>Now we can argue about what makes for a good or bad retcon, but I don't think it's worth quitting over GW doing yet another retcon.It would be one thing if saturnine was being portrayed as this amazing gamechanger that decided conflicts, but in reality it's just the artillery terminator armor that is too impractical to use in a lot of scenarios, which is why cataphractii was generally seen as the most valued choice of variant
Saturnine termies and especially praetors will be boring because they have nothing but bespoke weapon options.
>>95887122>which is why cataphractii was generally seen as the most valued choice of variantNo that's Tartaros, Cataphractii is just the workhorse most Legions were stuck with until the end of the Great crusade. Tartaros is literally the endpoint of marine armor as the Emperor envisioned
>>95887131Pretty bad weapon options too, it seems. Unless those heavy disintegrators are s6 ap2 and plasma is breaching 3+
>>95887133this is so, the standard line marine marine of the dying days of the great crusade i think would have taken the form of a tartaros suit with a lightning claw predominantly or power weapon and combi/storm bolter
>>95887147The fact that the plasma is barrage makes it interesting, they're basically mini thanatars
Except a thanatar can squish a marine in melee while double plasma saturnines cant without a fist
>>95887147>we're starting the plasma Cannons are bad debate again
>>95887133>Tartaros is literally the endpoint of marine armor as the Emperor envisionedThe point more being that saturnine is NOT that, and as far as the rules go they don't even seem particularly worth spamming
>>95887162Desu I see the development of the timeline as something like
>Hey we need a heavy weapons platform for void engagements and we have crippled Marines to spare, here's the Castaferrum to fulfill both needs >alright the Castaferrum was pretty coll but it'd be pretty cool if It didn't require a basically dead guy, let's try to carve out some of that life support equipment and make it an exosuit, using some of those cool STCs on Saturn, call it Saturnine >Holy fuck so Saturnine was nigh unusable for the cost, let's pull back a bit, same protection, less juice to weapons, call it Cataphractii >Alright let's look at some of those Saturnine designs again but scale it up so we actually have room for all this crap we shoved in without making it a doddling toddler, and bring back in the crippled marine, for the Contemptor Dreadnought >hmm this Contemptor is a pretty good base for some more specialized dreadnought, like the Leviathan and Deredeo >alright we've got a lot of practice at this miniaturization business since Cataphractii, let's try and make something as light as power armor but as protective as Terminator Armor, call it Tartaros >using those same principles as tartaros, let's make Saturnine not God awful but keep that upgunned firepower >hey Horus whatcha got there
Printing out 27 rapier carriers so I can play siege cohorts.
>>95887239Wow those prints came out great
Iโm looking all over for good tartaros files. I canโt find any anywhere and could use some help. OC pic of printed model to prove Iโm not James
>>95887239Looks like plastic
>>95887239Redmaker SA bros unite!
>>95886639 (OP)>TQFinally satiated my tism and found a word bearers recipe that I like.
Now I'm sperging out because I haven't put any good iconography on them besides shoulder pads.
What's a good way to make purity seals and other papers you would see on word bearers?
>>95887274They have the best infantry, just wish they would have made the retinue squad like they said they would a few months ago.
>>95887286Hopefully they do plastic domitars too
>>95886854nice print. whose files?
>>95887066I mean pretty much every new release since heresy started has been a retcon. whats different?
Instead of having seize on 6s the second player should've been able to bet their first turn reaction points, being able to add however many they spend to a D6 and on a 7+ they seize, like a modified zone mortalis.
I saw people dooming about deepstrike, I wonder what it means for drop pod/underground assault
>>95887379>I wonder what it means for drop pod/underground assaultThat they almost certainly have exceptions to that rule built in because you're paying points for it
>>95887320i lifted it off telegram, 'Predator Annihilator', i can't find any signature or source beyond the channel it's in. despite a screenshot with an autocannon gun only a lascannon is included or so it seems but that suited me just fine as laser/particle/energy tanks are awesome and my deimos is most centric about its magnetized conversion beamer head in turn

Why do so many Legions have black armor bits in HH? Does everyone take the Age of Darkness era name literally.
>>95887405that one is probably from craftos or a repackage of "chubby unicorn with hunting animal parts"
>>95887449Black goes well with everything, it's an easy way to slightly alter the well-known 40k color schemes. Imagine if GW instead tried to add like, bright purple to Salamanders, or neon pink zebra stripes to Raven Guard
>>95887405I don't know why this makes me laugh so hard
LEAKER ANON
RETURN TO POST THE SPRUE OF THE CENTURION WITH POWER MAUL AND MY LIFE IS YOURS
>>95887449Legion paint schemes varied by chapter or even company
Guys like the Fists have canonical reasons to have black on their more elite soldiers to represent templar initiated dudes, others are just part of that company's heraldry
Ultramarines have a lot more white and gold in their 30k schemes than in 40k, but they also get black for destroyers and such
Generally, if it represents anything, it's denoting some smaller sub-group within a chapter. Like White Scars having their kamikazi redemption seeking guys painted black.
>>95887405I don't know why but this is cracking me up, I nearly burst out laughing IRL. And my mother tongue is Spanish
>>95887455you are correct, thank you <3
>>95887472Your life probably isn't worth the 120 second post timeout..
I'm so hard up for models to convert I'm committing to my Toa Mata Freeblade Lance.
I'd say God help me, but I do more work than him.
>>95886708Thatโs a detolf, right? Where did you find the additional platforms, if you donโt mind me asking? Been thinking of selling off mine and transferring everything into those storage bins like jucoci or whatever. The detolf is just too much vertical space for minis and not enough actual storage capacity.
>>95887614Are they of comparable size to a knight? Been forever since Iโve seen one in person.
>>95887639Oh fuck no not even close, that's like comparing durians to railroad spikes. I mean a series of knights in their colors.
>>95887449Black is a good accent. Also, properly painted, all the mostly-black Legions are easily distinguished.
>Late/Siege SoH are greenish, with gold>IH are metallic black, with some normal black panels>DA are black with lots of red and white>RG are mostly matte black with glossy black details
>>95887658IH and RG very similar
Man I totally forgot that FW only made pads with the pre heresy word bearers symbols. Fuck, I wanted at least my gal vorbak to have embossed pads especially with the cool rune designs on the mk6 ones but I guess not. I already started putting the daemon head book decal on models I can't swap it around now.
>>95887628Buy fasteners to attach to the frame to function as support for additional shelves (I used wire rope clips). Take a detolf shelf to a glass cutter and ask for a few more just like it.
>>958876283d printed clips off etsy and then just got a Glazier to cut some to spec, you can also get acrylic shelves done to spec as well and if your in the US or UK ppl sell these on etsy and ebay as well.
Which legion is the most Doomer Russian?
>>95887746The night lords are the dedicated Slavic Legion
>>95887405>Awesome artwork>Identifies the pattern>Specific year it's fromGoddamn these old boxes are cool. I wish they'd bring this more historical-inspired style of box back for HH. I understand the need for actual product photos, but just put those on the back. Surely you're losing out on a bunch of sales from people seeing something like this on the shelf and being curious enough to check it out.
>Nu-scale gets produced as longer legs with slighter arms for more realistic proportions
>Make a new terminator armor with stubby legs under a too-tall torso with too long arms with a bookshelf of armor on top of the body
>With a bunch of flat featureless panels to make up the space
It's ass and not enough people understand that.
>>95887924Also how is that fucking torso supposed to twist? It doesn't. If that guy wants to punch someone he's gonna have to swing himself around on one leg like a circus performer.
>>95887924Kek this makes me think of that turtle club master of disguise meme.
>>95887978Talk about Dresden Codak references, that's one more I thought I'd never think of again.
>>95886639 (OP)>TQStarting to paint the gal vorbak, put the backpacks on the unprimed ones but gonna wait on the primed ones until I get more wraithbone in this Saturday. Alas,this Etsy seller is a stupid piece of shit so I'm just gonna get shoulder pads elsewhere with my refund from him after he fucked up my order for the third time in a row.
>"Brother Jeconias was always one for theatrics even before his blessed transformation. In another life, perhaps he'd better fit the purple of the IIIrd than the Crimson XVII."
>>95887950It's a mechsuit anon, the entire torso can probably spin 360 degrees
>>95887752Night Lords are Finnish.
>>95887479wait it is not "predator" in spanish anymore?
>>95887084>Honestly the idea that people can look at nearly 40 years of retcons and then point at a single new one and go "this is too far" is just silly.2 words.
Female Custodes.
>>95888208hold your insulting tongue
>>95888208Stating they didn't exist was itself a soft recon. There was nothing saying they did initially, but Inferno didn't use a single gendered pronoun for anything but named characters, and there was nothing about the 10,000 sons. Just said 10,000 children of noble houses.
>>95888222>>95888218>>95888208Does that mean there were topless custodes walking around Golden Throne? Hot.
>>95888208Yeah you're right, that was another soft retcon that didn't really change anything no matter how much that one schizo anon tries to post about Blackrock.
>>95888222Was it? Custodes started as bare chested duded in loincloths and helmets guarding golden throne and flashing emperor with their abs. Nothing along the way including visions of heresy, 60+ horus heresy books including custodies focused and siege of terra, Inferno 40k custodes codexes ever sugested there might be female custodes, untill one day GW just decided there are fem custodes now and doubled down on it.
>>95888227i'm not sure but the imperium is certainly a very girlbossy place
>>95888244The not in BL excuse doesnt really work when half the space marine roster including Leviathans, Deredeos, and Sicarans, 90% of space marine Legion units, most of the mechanicum, solar auxilia, and yes the custodes roster doesn't exist in those books either.
>>95888269Anon heโs probably a retard it shouldnโt be talked to
>>95888269They are also not in codex and not in heresy black books.
Finished my Typhon last night
>>95887746IH post isstvan 5.
Word bearers bfos I'm not so sure about my final red color. Should I do a wash with druchii violet before I start doing scripture? It feels like I lost too much of the wine color from the gal vorbk base
>>95888269This is advanced cope
>>95886639 (OP)>TQBuilding some hand flamer destroyers while I wait for my new order to arrive
>>95888351>>95888359>>95888364must be my tism but I kinda liked it better before the weathering down when it was like brushed steel.
>>95886639 (OP)>TQDusting off some of my unfinished Thousand Sons after focusing on a couple other games. Currently considering how I want to build an inevitable Centurion. Oh, also, I've got this little not-so-secret project once the print comes out right.
I am new to SM. Do you guys paint them in sub assemblies or glue everything before?
>>95888470Yeah, it's definitely prettier in the before stage and I always have a bit of a wobble before I weather them, but that's the scheme and I can't in all conscience let my IW be clean, let alone a siege tank.
There's a bit more definition in person, the metallic edges haven't shown up well on the camera
>>95888544Depends on the mini.
>>95888558you're a better man than me
>Quit Warhammer a few years ago due to health issues
>Get back into it for 3.0, decide to make a n army out of the stuff I didn't sell
>Found a fully intact land raider in the garage, going to use it for my despoilers
>MFW i notice the lascannon sprue is misding a bunch of small imortant parts
>>95888500This would look pretty sick as a biker with his arm blown off, provided there's no other misprints on the other side.
>>95888684Doesn't GW offer life long replacement and such? Just tell em
>>95888351Did the plastic kit drop the commander looking out the top hatch?
>>95888797Yeah, there's a different one like in my predator here
>>95888761Idk, I'll check
>>95888761They usually want the order number or so...
(Also I hope the Land Raider still has rules and is allowed as a transport, because HH2.0 was all about selling the new plastic Proteus, pushing the Phobos into a niche)
>>95888828They gave the proteus a normal land raider version
>>95888828Phobos can easily be used to represent a Proteus (but not the explorator unless suitably converted)
LR

๐
>>95888845Yes, that also existed in HH1.0 as alternative resin kit but in HH2.0 when the plastic kit was released it became the default DT for Terminators and others, while the Phobos became a simple Heavy Support choice as an "Expanded Unit"
Dubs decides my 3.0 Legion, Trips gets Custodes
>>95888865God I hope the Explorator still has Scout
>>95888888nice. So custodes or 8th.
>>95888888Thatโs a lot of eights, I think a certain legion is calling
>>95888888thousand sons but almost your whole army is actually spireguard
>>95888888>hex 8seither Night Lords or World Eaters
>>95888888play alpha legion my friend
>>95888544I usually do legs, torso, backpack, head together, arms and shoulders separate, but it depends on the model and pose a lot.
The terminators I'm finishing up I did legs, torso, under shoulders. Each arm/weapon. Heads. Shoulders.
>>95888544Depends. I'd paint marines and tanks in full assembly unless they had very different coloured shoulder pads, or if a tank had sponsons that would be hard to reach or a turret that would be a different colour. I personally never really bothered with sub assemblies unless it was something where there was a real difference in basecoat colour requirements.
you WILL play his edition won't you?
>>95888544I usually glue everything unless that makes painting more difficult later. So while a simple tactical dude can be completely assembled, some guy or squad with cape on the back and shield and stuff in front of the body screams to be painted separately, like there is no way to paint the inner side of the cape and parts of the dude's body properly (at least in one basic layer)
>>95888997sounds good, my armies were designed for HH1, HH2 fucked it up and HH3 is a mixed bag so far.
Deciding what legion to paint a dead traitor on a base
>Odds = Iron Warriors
>Evens = Emperorโs Children
>>95888500Where did you get this one? The only author I know who made this only has Legion variants
>>95888997His video on rebalancing Legion traits was awful. He has a massive bias against SW and another in favour of WS and he is completely blind to it, it's insane.
>>95888997No, 3.0 looks better
>>95886639 (OP)>What are you working on? Doesn't matter what edition you're playing, just post some models.Iron Hands Mortificator with corposant stave, nemesis boltgun and twin graviton pistols.
Mostly bashed together from various bits I had lying around, but the visible pauldron is still a placeholder.
>>95889106That might be one of the best techmarine conversion I've seen, ever.
>>95888997Gonna buy it just do he necks himself
>>95889106By the Emperor! That looks good.
>>95886639 (OP)>What are you working on? Doesn't matter what edition you're playing, just post some models
>>95889210I wish there were more feather helmets though because I prefer them a lot over the toilet brushes. But the shops I usually buy don't have any 3rd party helmets like that and Geedub's upgrade kit for Dark Angels has... ONE.
Too bad that all the Dark Vengeance captains are gone from eBay too, that shit is just too old I guess. I remember nobody wanted them after buying 4 boxes at once.
>>95887084Why care about a setting that changes on a whim like that. I don't knowuch about hh, but 10th edition 40k is hot garbage, the models themselves being hot or miss. the models here are similar.
What are people supposed to come to this series for?
>>95889070he's gone turbo stolen valour lately and gushes over RG now as the 'modern warfare faction' that 'achieves the most objectives man for man' in the heresy, honestly it's sad that a 40 year old man bases his preferences on scoring community and lore points.
>>95888997outer circle is such a fucking loser
Every time I consider playing Custodes because fluff and awesome Visions art I look at their models and stop because their nuspears are so fucking retarded. Who on earth even thought to put that whatever it is on their handle? What the fuck is even this thing's purpose? How would you even fucking fight with that joke of weapon in close combat?
>>95888997Who is this and why should I care?
>>95888997it's too bad he abandoned making interesting videos in favour of endless whining
>>95889254I guess wait and see, since these look more in line with visions artwork of guardian spears. It might just be a character but knowing modern GW it would not surprise me if they launch a heresy only custodes kit.
>>95889281We cannot see its handle, where the problem lies, so I am not so optimistic.
>>95889279>TOC>Interesting videos
>>95889254I think about making a Sagitarum Guard Custodes army a lot, mainly because of the Horus vs. The Emperor artwork, but their rules and options in 2.0 are very lazy, not to mention being heavy support for some reason. Maybe the new 3.0 force org chart will help, or maybe they'll get squatted who knows.
>>95886639 (OP)>What are you working on? Doesn't matter what edition you're playing, just post some models.Working on making my army presentable for the table. First, tacticals.
>>95888888I will get someone to do blackshields one day
>>95889281>since these look more in line with visions artwork of guardian spearsThat looks nothing like the visions artwork of guardian spears. It looks more in line with the nuMk2 curvy bolter design and that blade is just ridiculously big.
>>95889273He's the lolcow of HH, a clown that people like to point and laugh at. Best to be ignored, just like the panopticucks.
>>95889252why? Because he doesn't eat what GW marketing serves?
>>95889359>Panopticucks catching straysAs the good lord intended
>>95889359I am glad I don't pollute my head with ecelebs for any game I play, Vidya or tabletop or otherwise
>>95889273Not sure why there is so much hate on this guy around here. He's sometimes grumpy but mostly on point with GW's bullshit.
New centurions for news edition.
>>95889383Here, have a (You)
>>95889363being a contrarian isnt a good thing in and of itself, you also have to have good opinions to back it up
>>95889301come on, the video about alternative starter boxes was good. He put some starter sets together so that 2 boxes either result in a RoW army or you mix 2 different boxes to get a more general army.
BaC was good model-wise but bad as a box (selling it as an independent game with a special board and dice - like the people at GW were drunk and clueless what people want), BoP had legion specific chars and units which made it worthless for many players, the last one was good if you like beakies and the HH3 one is crap again (fucking Saturnine and the gun, thefuq).
>>95889397Dice were just normal RPG ones. Also a nice break of d6 only game.
>>95889397The HH3 starter box is better than the AoD one. >Mk II is the best of the nu-marines yet
>It includes actual new units, instead of units everybody who was playing HH already had - spartan, terminators, contemptor. Making the HH3 starter interesting for both veterans and new players>The PA character is the same scale as the other infantry, unlike the AOD box which had oversized primarshit characters repurposed for HH>It contains mostly infantry, making it better to expand into whatever direction somebody likes, as well as interesting to buy multiple to bulk out an army. Meanwhile, nobody needs three spartans.>It makes more evenly balanced forces for introduction games, whilst the AOD box had a spartan that couldn't be touched by basically anything else at range.
>>95889389aren't they taller than other models and a bit too 40k? (at least one MK7 helmet, everyone in MK X armor with the legs shining through, the backpack, guns). Kitbashing weapons and backpacks is ok but I think they are a bit off for 30k. inb4 artificer armor.
>>95889436Yes, that's why that post was obvious bait.
>>95889397You don't have to hide behind anonymity, macca, we all know it's you
>>95889433>turret>shaturnine warsuits
>>95889445wrong hemisphere
>>95889447Just because you don't like them doesn't mean everybody else doesn't like them. There are plenty of people who want those, so even if you buy the HH3 starter box but not want the turret or saturnine terminators it will be much easier to sell off to somebody, unlike a spartan or contemptor which everybody already had plenty of.
AOD had Mk VI marines, which weren't widely used and don't fit every legion aesthetically. The HH3 box having the basic infantry in Mk II, one of the most widely used patters of power armour, is a huge improvement.
>>95889433It would be a far better box if half of it weren't retarded looking Saturnine miniatures
>>95889281>It might just be a characterPLEASE FUCK NO, I JUST WANT AN UPDATED OR NEW PLASTIC UNIT AT LEAST WHEN THERE'S ALREADY SIX FUCKING WAYS TO MAKE A SHIELD-CAPTAIN OR SOME OTHER UNIT WHO ALSO LEADS LIKE UP TO THREE OR FOUR DIFFERENT TYPES OF SQUADS AT BEST. IT'S LIKE ALL THOSE GODDAMN LIEUTENANTS THEY KEEP SHITTING OUT FOR 40K. DON'T FUCKING JINX IT, ANON
>>95889281>holding back an entire book just for a characterThis is so retarded it might actually be true
>>95889466To you the saturnine terminators might be a negative, but for other people that makes it the best starter box to date.

>>95889499Yea, cuz they are all subjective
Not everyone has a spartan or cataphractii or dislikes mk6
Having duplicate characters are always shit no matter how much you like the new ones
>>95889433As someone who likes the new box(including the saturnine), the AoD one was way better.
>Lots of tacticals for troop or support>one dreadnought>one transport>two cataphractii terminator squads>two officers for either praetor or centurion conversiona way better balanced box
>>95889578>Not everyone has a spartan or cataphractiiBut nobody has saturnine terminators.
Except pr00nters of course, but GW wasn't going to sell anything to them anyway.
>>95889578>or dislikes mk6Every real human being with a soul does. And no, I'm not just talking about numk6.
HH3.0 preview this Sunday
>>95889573The vehicle article was posted an hour earlier than this
>>95889592> Manlet cataphractii not in scale with the marines> Contemptor stripped of half the optionsYeah nah. Like all GW boxes, the 'value' was destroyed by the inclusion of shit like the old terminators and removing half of the dread options.
>>95889602Nu thing is not valuable just because it's nu
Stop being a consooomer
>>95889611The cataphractii are completely fine next to the old termies but that's besides the point because it is a STARTER box. But since you're clearly baiting, I will just let it end here.
Shut the fuck up already
Both starters suck balls because both remade infantry kits suck balls.
Half of both boxes are possibly the laziest fucking kits GW has ever produced
>>95889622next to the old marines*
>>95889614This isn't about being a consoomer. The HH3 starter box has an objectively higher chance to be interesting to more people because it includes units that even existing HH players do not have.
Meanwhile, whilst not all existing HH players already owned things like a spartan, a lot of them do. Stop seeing the old good new bad tribalism in everything for one second.
>>95889592You more od less use everything. Even the Spartan can be run as a landraider. The new box is nice. But the artilery thingy? Sprue that makes your vets worse ,then TSS plasma dudes. Even if the saturnite are meta , and l like the ax pretor, who needs two units od indirect fire. Everyone Has a scorpius and the limit on indirect is one per 1500pts in most places.
>>95889654>Talking about metaFucking WAACfag. Opinion discarded.
>>95889603NTA, but grow up
>>95889623What do You mean by remade. Born the 2ef and 3ed infantry is the first time GW fot the armour paterns right. A stealth tech advance one and a Knights od Old Terra one. No squat marines, boxed looks etc
>>95889654The new turrent is manned and will have marine stats for shooting and has four sicaran autocannons, if its cheap enough it will be pretty good
>>95889645It is about being a consoomer tho
Because just by putting the Nu thing! in there they are duping you into buying another 40 tactical marines you don't need and you are falling for it hook line and sinker
>>95889603>hating on beakiesI'm sorry but you have to go back
>>95889677>No squat marinesThe squat marines are unironically superior to the 5 pose nightmare of nuMarine armies.
>>95889654>sprue that makes vets worse than TSS plasma dudesaren't disintegrators at AP3 at least on par if not better for killing PA than plasma which is only AP2 or killing marines a third of the time? It may also be more cost effective, and in a way is better on vets since it doesn't completely shit on the other options.
Stop arguing about stupid shit Plasma is even worse than before somehow

>>95889766No, it's on a 1 you get hit twice by the gun profile
Which means every time you fire a 6 man unit with double disintegrators you're losing one on average
>>95889772Those are worse than fucking bolters at killing basic marines!

>>95889785Fair, I never used Plasma guns or Cannons because I just assumed they always killed your guys on ones like they used to
>>95889796Anons retarded, different firing profiles is only a thing for the sicaran omega and deredeo it being on all plasma is new
>>95889796well, to be fair, it was only on the big guys like deredeo and sicaran omega,but yeah. the precedent was there
>>95889715Man that sure looks a lot like those banned weapons that only that one certain Legion was allowed to use
>>95889715>ap3 template weapon on multi-wound 2+ 4++ save models that can be given deepstrikeAs an SA player it seems I now have to make a decision. To kill power armoured monsters, I must employ power armoured monsters as allies in hopes they can destroy one another in the maelstrom of war
I know mechanicum is there but they smell funny shut up
>>95889761>AP3 to Breaching 4 to Breaching 5/6>ID is gone so S8 is meaning lessWhy do they taker every single opportunity to nerf plasma?

>>95889383How tall are they next to the mkvi marines? Tempted to do something similar (but by god anon swap those backpacks)
>>95889808>>95889802Ah okay, I've never read a rulebook befire, I just wing it and learn as I go lol
>>95889715Did a plasmagun rape the rules writer's mother?
i take back what i said about 3.0 looking promising after seeing this reveal, because what the fuck are they doing?
>>95887924...were you people expecting the Saturnine Terminator pattern to not look retarded or something? It was always going to, that's literally the whole point. It's almost a weird ridiculous parody of a space marine, except it's original design predates most of them.
Honestly I feel kinda optimistic about the balance this edition, looking at the saturnine rules. They seem fairly costed for what they are, and will likely end up as a niche unit rather than feeling super pushed and busted like I was worried.
80pts for double disintigrator saturnine is insane. Really is just "small dreadnought" territory
The praetor is also surprisingly tame. Shame the axe isnt good for challenges (I like it better aesthetically). 260pts for a naked one with teleport is kinda steep.
>>95889715>have two tactical support squads of plasma ready with plans for 6 saturnine plasma and 2 sicaran omegas Wallahi I'm finished, these people have ruined me
All I can hope for is warpfire plasma sticking around and becoming dangerous version with overload (3) and breaching 4+
>>95889784I was going to anyway because I noticed they're left and right hand weapons and pretend the hammer was a fist... But apparently you can duel wield and still get the plasma blaster. That's a hell yeah for me.
>>95889715>Plasma is even worse than before somehowWhat the FUCK. It was fine, I liked breaching stopped it from being the only special you ever took. But breaching 5+ an you nuke 2 wounds? It's over plasma enjoyers.
I can at least take some solace in that the plasma bombards are trash so there won't be a million indirect saturnines on every table.
>plasma made to breach on a 5/6+
Blegh
>No longer forced to kill myself with it all the time
Yay
I am conflicted
>>95889886>plasma doesent kill you when it gets hotYay!
>this is because plasma just doesent kill any moreOh no!
>>95889879> Deep strike 3 AP3 templates in your face Oh boy foot slogging big infantry blocks are completely dead.
We are back to the parking lot simulator
>>95889812Dark Angels bros what the fuck it's over
>>95889691the new turret is only good if it allows my real Sicaran to get cheap weapon replacements
>>95889818At least they need to stand still to shoot it and their gun arm.
>>95889715>Breaching (6+)>Breaching (5+) for Overload (2)Thanks for nothing, GW.
I bet it's because they are giving regular plasma guns more shots like bolters
>>95889891Ap3 templates? Anon, read the fucking article.
>>95889715>Plasma is 5+ breaching nowAh ok, so they are dialing back the killiness this edition. Maybe that's a good thing?
>AP3 flamers on a units with 1" away deepstrikeWHAT THE FUCK
Don't care still gonna run plasma 'cos I like it.
>>95889900If they deep strike,does that count as moving? Or no
It takes 180 bolter shots to kill 1 saturnine assuming no sources of FNP
>>95889905Don't worry, if you take two it's Overload (4)!
>>95889812Yo, for real though, is this straight up the best weapon these guys get? Like overall... Saturnines appear to be fucking garbage? Like, everything has Overload, Plasma is shit, Disintigrators are expensive, if you buy two of them you have to stay still to fire both. They're 200pts before all that as well.
But yeah, what the fuck is going on with Plasma right now. That not being AP3 just feels wrong.
>>95889715>praetor only has 3 wargear optionsIt's fucking joever
>>95889891>> Deep strike 3 AP3 templates in your faceOh boy, thats a good use of 500pts!
Yea, I sure would expect that unit to fuck up some tactical marines.
Saturnine arent weak, theyre just really fucking expensive. To the point where them being good at certain things (D guns for killing elites, shredders for melting tacticals) does not make them auto includes, but rather specialist choices.
>>95889907Anon... Read the shredder rules.
>>95889907Maybe you should read
>>95889912It does
>>95889907NTA, the flamer is AP3. "Templates" are flamers, "markers" are the circular blast.
>>95889905Mind you, the normal plasma is not even Overload (2) in the better profile.
>>95889761They went and made the bombards specially shit within a nerfed category
>>95889692>they are duping you into buying another 40 tactical marines you don't needWarhammer is no a necessity at all. Liking the models is enough no matter how many other models you have might theoretically fill the same role in game.
>>95889929Bombards are barrage blast templates, so theres probably that going for them.
Frankly I could believe that saturnine plasma is scuffed (kinda like cenobium plasma flamers) for balance reasons, and isnt representative of plasma as a class.
>>95889770>plasma can't penetrate marinesplasma blasters can't. We have not seen the usual plasma weapons yet.
>>95889715Rather limited wargear, holding off opinions until I see if you can give them Legion specialty wargear.
Though canโt wait to paint them up and put the fat fucks next to my Rogue Trader models in the army
>>95889918It's the best weapon but I'm not sure if that's even good
Like, ap3 flamer is nice and all but is that worth 215p for 3 of them?
They have to stay still to shoot more than 1 gun. They have to wad all the way to the target with M5" and probably unable to run
And being able to deepstrike them comes with an additional 260p tax
>>95889911Based. Me too. Blasts have become much more accurate and scatter less if they miss now, so it's gonna become even easier to just rack up a high amount of wounds and murder shit through forcing lots of armour saves.
>>95889939It's the plasma blaster being bad that's indicative of plasma as a while being bad.
>>95889943Yeah, but if you take that tax then you can just appear within flamer template range and fire them and either the Plasma's or the Disinitigrators without a problem.
I'm either too retraded or too sleepy explain why plasma is bad now.
>>95889939>isnt representative of plasma as a class.Probably not but I'm pretty sure the plasma blaster is
>>95889761It's still a pretty big nerf even if they are a bit better against vehicles now
>>95889942>holding off opinions until I see if you can give them Legion specialty wargear.can't wait to give them 3++ and deepstrike without a praetor as IF
>>95889922Honestly I think a unit of plasma bombards and particle Shredders might not be bad for a praetor? 670 for a bit load of deep striking fuck your infantry if they try and jam them (particle Shredders have assault and there's no rule preventing you from using templates with snap shot anymore) and the Fists and axe are pretty good
Nah I'm coping this is just the 800 point Nullificator Warmonger disingegrator bomb all over again
>>95889941How is plasma blaster not a usual plasma weapon?
>>95889833>How tall are they next to the mkvi marines?Very, Heresy Marines come up to their chest.
>>95889892just wait for it, we know nothing about plasma guns, plasma repeaters and plasma canons yet. Or if there will be some archeotech plasma shenanigans with the 1st legion.
Otherwise, pick the heavy flamer and multimelta for 3 years and the classic boltgun.
Plasma bombards* are bad, we don't know that this is the rule for all plasma guns yet. Maybe its opium, maybe it's maybelline.
>>95889918Plasma seems bad, but double plasma cannon terminators will be good for dealing with mass infantry at range. Two templates each and they are functionally immune to small arms fire. A squad of these will body infinite tactical marines.
Shredders are insane if you get in range to use them, this however requires deepstrike (or transport) because they are otherwise m5 and cant run.
Disintigrators are expensive (80ppm for double gun terminator, lol) but they are also very hard hitting. Into the proper targets (tartaros terminators?) they could be well worth it.
Saturnine seem very wonky and niche, but I wouldnt say theyre worthless, they require specific answers (good luck killing them with less than melta-guns/lascannons and powerfists) and provide specific answers in return.
>>95889943Saturnine are bad outside of camping a home objective. It's not worth using a Praetor to deepstrike them into bullying a side objective with tax marines.
Saturnine command squads might be horrific though. The pic has them with a banner and the Praetor weapons and no gun arm. We'll have to see.
>>95889958>I'm coping this is just the 800 point Nullificator Warmonger disingegrator bomb all over againThats more or less my impression of them. But frankly thats a good thing.
>>95889914two reasons to ignore it: a) this, b) it can't kill you back with the plasma weapon, so it is just a big Distraction Carnifex(tm)
>>95889952They need to stand still to fire both. Arriving from reserves is always a move.
>>95889961Got a photo? Didn't realise they were so retardedly scaled
>>95889922that weapon looks like ass; even when I thought the stupid Saturnine cannot be made worse in design they show us this, lmao
>>95889622I don't care if old models are in scale with other old models I care if old models which aren't in scale with the NEW models are being packaged and sold together.
That box would have been better with more new tactical and maybe a special or heavy weapon sprue. Not GW fucking you on value by throwing in old models THEY want out of their warehouse which they plan of replacing in 5 years (and the designs and sprue were probably already completed).
> Anyone who disagrees with me is baitingThis is literal autist behavior extremely pathetic
>>95889968>It's not worth using a Praetor to deepstrike themespecially since you're using up your sweet prime benefits to take more than one
oh, and you're only allowed to deepstrike one unit now
>>95889941>make twin-plasma>somehow it becomes worse than a single plasma
>>95889990What? They're heavy assault anon, same slot as Terminators
>>95889960because it is a different weapon than a plasma gun, just like a bolt pistol isn't a combi bolter.
>>95889715>Explode I may have missed it in the leaks, but what does Explode (6+) and how does it trigger?
If such a thing is known.
I wonder is Cataphractii are getting back slow and purposeful over relentless
>>95889968>>95889966It's pretty insane to have 6 of them in the starter box
>>95890002On an X+, hit every unit within 6" with a number of S8 AP- D1 hits equal to starting wounds
>>95889997I was talking about the praetor
>>95890004Yea.
"Heres 400pts of terminators, you will use them very rarely and only with a further 300pts worth of praetor"
>>95890001And since when do Bolt Pistols and Combi bolters differ other than shot quantity and range?
>>95890008Oh to be clear, it triggers when they die
>>95889994the only thing it has in common yet is str7
damn nigga
i think i'm gonna go for squad sizes of six split down the center between the bombards and disintegrators, everyone with a fist and shredder
>>95890001Bad comparison; it's like a bolter to a combi bolter or storm bolter. So if the combo bolter were suddenly AP- then one would assume bolters were.
Also bolt pistol to bolter is just a range and shot difference with identical ammo.
>>95890022When will you ever use both guns other than camping an objective? Seems like wasting points if you move or deepstrike and can only fire one.
>plasma still shreds Mech and Solar Aux
Oof, it's a marine world out here.
>yeah bro lets make plasma like 40k
fuck off
heresy is just becoming 40k-lite and they know it
>>95890027Yeah it seems like the only useable option is double disintegrators on a midfield objective to say fuck off to any Elites or deep striking with a Shredders and plasma with zero intention of ever firing the plasma and just wading in with Fists (remember to attach a Cataphractii character to the deathstar to give them a 3" setup move)
>>95890033Counterpoint: they'll make next edition of 40k like this too and both games will have the same rules again.
>>95890027eater shits are the pertinent legion for me and movement is a given so the option that requires that one doesn't is entirely off the table
i have eighteen of these fuckers now and change intended for a command squad but we might not see one outright maybe
three blocks of these shits walking alongside tactical groups being screened seems absolutely silly cool
>>95890044they work on a reactionary basis and 2.0 did not have the same complaints as 10th edition, so this will never happen.
>>95890040>(remember to attach a Cataphractii character to the deathstar to give them a 3" setup move)Not if you want to deepstrike. The praetors homer only works on saturnine terminators. So unless you want to 5" footslog up the field to use those shredders...
>>95890001>just like a bolt pistol isn't a combi bolterThe ones with the exact same profile aside from range and number of shots?
>>95890056Fuck me Spartan it is. if It still has 26 capacity it can fit in 6 saturnine and another terminator, which now that i think about it probably better to take a tartaros since presumably 7" move + 5I means you can give them a whole 4" setup move after exiting the transport
>>95890067>adding a 400 point transport and 75+ point character for a WS4 melee unitAnon pls stop just accept that they're bad
>>95890067mixing different armours in a squad is lame and should be against the rules
>>95890055That's exactly why. People hate 10th and the 30k rules are well recieved so they are making 3rd as an in-between so both games have the same ruleset.
Newfag here. Saturnine Praetor does not have Explode. Is it because he is a Command or just because?
>>95890067Ypu'll need dreadnought drop pods to transport saturnines.
>>95890077tartaros plate is very much intended in its partial rollout to be used by officers appended to power armoured groups so as to accompany them at pace
besides that i think doing something like attaching a power armoured command group to surround something like a saturnine praetor is hilariously funny and neat
similarly a power armoured marine or one in a tartaros or cataphractii suit attached to a block of saturnine suits would be zany
wild texture
>>95890077nice to see that everyone else now recognizes the problem of the Night Lord's 1st captain in power armor and the Dark Angel's 1st captain in power armor while having special Terminators in the legion...
Gonna be one of those days, desu
>>95890090It's because they forgot
>>95889943I think that killing tacticals, that can score an additional 3 or so victory points a turn for your opponent, definitely makes them worth their weight.
The extra points from Line are so huge 215 points (well really 475) to fuck your opponent are worth it.
Then if they are just a big speed bump who cares they did their job and bought YOUR tactical time
>>95890098nice from you to make Mia a gift in form of a Dreadnought for her army
>>95890077Nah it's cool. I like the flexibility.

>>95890095Or imperial fists first captain in power armor, or blood angels first captain in power armor, or alpha legion first captain in power armor...
>>95890125NTA but nice try porn site ad no one's falling for your shit
>>95890139>imperial fists first captain in power armortemplars aren't in terminator armour
>>95890090It's because the saturnine praetor isn't wielding one or two large heavy weapons know for being volatile and exploding when fired too often.
Yes I am saying the rule represents the heavy disintegrator/plasma bombards going boom rather than the terminators themselves.
>>95890149Huscarls however, are. They have a unique terminator variant. Basically everyone does.
>>95890151those beeg guns are doubtlessly feeding on the power systems of the armour itself and that might be a destabilizing factor
>>95890139Speaking of first captains. The diagrams says they are commanders of a battallion, which is half a chapter and around 5k marines. Is there a "second captain" that commands the secnd battallion of the chapter?
>breaching 5/6+ plasma
I think they nerfed it because of new accurate LoS Blasts without scatter. Blasting someone from 24 with double bombards/disintegrators seems ok. The S6 AP3 template seems good for clearing 3+ 1-2W squads after DS (it's only 5p per model).
>>95890098>buying fleshlights instead of onaholes>whore branded ones>condom while using ityou're so digustingly american
>>95890158huscarls aren't the first company, siggy doesn't command them
>>95890167as best i'm aware a chapter is about a thousand marines, a company a hundred, and a battalion five times that
>>95890161The fluff specifically mentions saturnine housing bigger reactors that can feed larger weapons
>>95890171>(it's only 5p per model).Yea, that seems a bit cheap. Although I suppose the downside is "getting close enough to use it".
A 260pts praetor is a lot just to give them DS, and they dont have it otherwise. And theyre m5 and cant run. Plus theyre also bad in melee, at least vs other terminators. A 65pts saturnine terminator has the effective damage output of a 40pts cata terminator, and only 1.5x the durability. Even with the praetor involved theyre not going to be beating stuff like legion elites. (who conveniently also dont really care about their overwatch with the flamers)
>>95890171>Blasts without scatterIt's absolutely this. I don't think it'll be as big a nerf as everyone is making out
>>95890176>huscarls aren't the first companyAnd? Theyre special legion terminators, as laid out in
>>95890095>in power armor while having special Terminators in the legion...
>>95890171The plasma blaster is worse too though. Wonder if most shooting will be toned down a little bit, so far only short range shooting seems to be really devastating.
>>958901671st Captain is probably anyone in charge of a whole Battallion.
I don't think I've ever heard of a 2nd captain
>they're making it like 40k
>no they're not, plasma seperate profiles adds granularity which heresy players said 40k lacks
>its literally a 40k mechanic
>but the deredeo and sicaran omega had plasma alt fire modes
>they're literally shots designed for dealing with specific targets
>>95890216>Wonder if most shooting will be toned down a little bitBolters always fire 2 shots now. Lascannons are largely the same. Melta is now the bane of all things.
>>95890182I think that's been retconnes because in the Imperium Secundus books ultramarines had chapters at 10k strong and companies at 1k strong. Which makes a lot more sense even in 40k IMO.
>Heavy disintegrators are AP 2
>Each saturnine terminator can have 2
>A unit of 6 fires 24 shots of fuck your terminators and dreadnoughts
I'm gonna take a unit to create a terminator-dreadnought not allowed zone in the middle of the board. Yes I do hold grudges.
>>95890167>"What about a captain?">"You already have a captain.">"First captain, yes, but what about second captain?"
>>95890227So there's multiple first captains?
>>95890241I find ir curious that they've killed rapid fire in every game.
>>95890251>each Disintegrator has overload 2 >24 shots overload 4 times on average >take 8 self hits everytime you fire >lose 2 saturnine a shooting phase Good thing games are only 4 turns long now, because they'll be gone before then!
>>95890241Who was scared of bolters though. Lascannons lost Sunder, which was the very thing that made them so oppressively consistent. And melta only penetrating AV 14 on a 6 is gonna suck ass, and it can't even punch through the front of a flare shield spartan anymore.
>>95890229Granularity is good except if the idea comes from 40k in which case it's bad
>>95890204It's not that blast barrage plasma is bad we care about, it's that normal plasma is now terrible too.
>>95890251>>A unit of 6 fires 24 shotsWhich in turn causes 8 hits on itself per turn, or about 2 dead saturnine terminators.
But yes, you have reinvented the nullificator deathstar.
>>95890251Now imagine 10 Vets with heavy distintigrators
>>95890270Assuming warcom was right about Overload being hits those still need to roll to wound.
>>95890204It's a huge ass nerf. Plasma was already nerfed by being breaching 4+ to begin with
And blast weapons are not auto hit. You still have to roll to hit with them, which, if the enemy is spread more than 1" from each other you are going to hit 4 times with 6 bombards
>>95890260>So there's multiple first captains?There's even if the commander of the second battalion wasn't called a 1st Captain there would be multiples of them from all the other Chapters.
>>95890275I dunno, we haven't seen their statline yet and if the bolter is any indication regular plasma will be shooting twice as many shots
>>95890283Only 1 in 5 vets can take a heavy disintegrator from the looks of it. The rest are stuck with those AP 3 disintegrator rifles.
>>958902878 hits wounding on 3s so 6(rounding) wounds, half get saved, d2 each.
Its in the ballpark of 2 terminators a phase.
>>95889715i don't get it, saturnine fist are S6?
>>95890299Whats not to get, 4+2 is 6.
Where do you cool fellas get your space marine shotguns from?
>>95890299Yes, so if Terminators go to T5 they're pretty bad.
my tank army cares not for your AP2 disintegrators, plasma bombards or AP3 flamers
>>95890293It's all 10
>>95883466, that's for each vet can have a normal or heavy. They wouldn't let you assemble an illegal unit, even in the quick start rules.
>>95890204Yes goyim, to nerf blast weapons we must also nerf direct fire weapons
>>95890321This is the quickplay rules, notice how the saturnine stats are all over the place and the gear is wrong.
>>95890321Doubt the disintegrator sprue in the starter box had 10 heavy disintegrators on it.
>>95890321Anon compare the saturnine rules there to the one we just got. Or the fact that there's 2 heavy Disintegrators per sprue
>>95890291... at breaching 6+ or breaching 5+ Overload(X). The plasma blast gun is just two stapled together. Unless plasma gets a big discount I don't see why you would ever voluntarily take it on things like support squads or combi weapons.
>>95890291Jogger we literally just saw them in the article
>>95890312Why would terminators be t5? But yes, I suspect they lose to their equivalent in points in cataprachtii already, let alone when theyre wounding on 3s.

>>95890317i shall bring my full four armoured support detachment and we will play panzer commander togetherrrrrrrrrrrrrr
>>95890338There is no plasma gun statline in the article
>>95890171>accurate LoS Blasts without scatterYou still have to roll to hit. Ad if the enemy is slightly spaced you are gonna get the equivalent of 1 shot per gun...
>>95890329Again, they wouldn't let you assemble physical models in illegal unit loadouts. Stats can be wrong, but they want you to buy the books and play the main game.
>>95890260>So there's multiple first captains?First captain might mean a lot of things.
It could just mean captain in command of first battalion and first company of chapter, meaning there is a lot of them or it could be highest title in legion, marine commander second only to Primarch himself.
Titles and ranks are very legion dependant. SoH have Abaddon who is first captain, same with Blood Angels, meanwhile Emperor's Children have Lord Commander Primus. Some legions don't have captain titles but their own titles from feral cultures,
This is why in 30k you don't have rules for chapter master or captain but only Praetor for high ranking officer and centurion for line officers with consul upgrades for specialised staff, because each legion is diferent but each follow simlar general structure of basic grunts, more elite grunts, middle manager, exec and space daddy.
>>95890352I do not believe that the kit will contain 10 heavy disintigrators.
>Buy a box of these guys because the axes give me legend of the galatic heroes vibes and they look cool
>Look at points values for solar aux
Looks like its going to just be an allied detachment!
>>95890352Can't assemble them wrong when there's only 2 heavy disintegrators on the sprue.
>>95890356You better start believing in disintegrator-spam editions, you're in one
>>95890342we can only hope that decurions are command slots, and/or master of armour
praetor today has MoTL, so I hope that still implies RoWs are a thing
>>95890346And so you expect the gun that's just two plasma guns bolted together to not behave like two plasma guns bolter together?
>>95890365No, I don't think that indicates anything. Jumping to conclusions and panicking before you've seen it for yourself is retarded
>>95890365The plasma blaster never behaved like two plasma guns bolted together. Shorter range and assault 2.
>>95890359We are getting veteran assault squad so we can easily be looking at veteran HSS with native BS5
Enjoy the thought
If the qp rules are to be taken as is vets can only take disintigrators
>>95890382but it never had different AP, strength or special rules, you know, the things that matter the most
>>95890380Congratulations, you have poor pattern recognition and are not autistic!
No no no no please no 3D thunder Hammers
>>95890387That's why most people are saying it will be 24" range with 2 shots like bolters.
>>95890396If TH are 3D, Saturnine are going to last 1 turn in melee against normal terminators...
Also
>Concussion hammer doesn't cause concussions
so, do (You) reckon the saturnine terminators can basically be backported to 2.0 as they are without much for adjustment?
i'm not seeing much that's very incongruent or unable to basically be slopped over largely unchanged
>>95890406Can't have a concussion when you're dead anon.
>>95890396if this is anything to go by THammers are gonna be d2 at most
>>95890396>>95890406Why is it called a concussion hammer? Presumably it's designed to make people dead not concussed??
>>95890167I think THE 1st captain of a legion is a named Praetor, the Primarch's right hand, not A captain of one of the many 1st battallions (those are just grunts), even below a chapter master.
>>95890423I could see thunder hammers being D2 with Critical Hit 6+
>>95890406>rapid fire battle cannon isn't rapid fire>assault cannon isn't assault>heavy flamer isn't heavy>volkite disintegrator isn't disintegratorMany such cases.
>>95890396It looks like they put padding on that hammer
>>95890396Nah I bet normal thunder Hammers are Sx2 AP2 D2 Critical Hit(6+)
>>95890424i would say that phrasing refers to it being a power weapon of such magnitude that it adopts such an aspect, perhaps relating to the noise and sensations associated with its being used
>>95890173if they are created from the original mold then a condom might be wise
>>95890406Heavy disintegrators don't have the Heavy rule.
>>95890431>>95890437Is a 1/6 chance to autowound with +1 D per attack worth 5 points over a powerfist?
>>95890398If plasmaguns get extra range and shots then the breaching nerf seems reasonable no?
Not a fan of GW's font choice. Initiative I and initiative 1 look way too similar.
>>95890414>slopped overFreudian slip
>>95890382S7 AP4 Breaching 4
VS
S7 AP4 Breaching 4
But that must be different from let's say the plasma cannon! Let's see...
S7 AP4 Breaching 4
Ah! But surely an exotic weapon like the Hellfire Plasma Cannonade will have another profile!
S7 AP4 Breaching 4
>>95890398Wow! Such a massive upgrade! Surely this justifies the massive cost difference with the bolter!
>>95890398breaching 6+ and then with 5+ and gets hot is still shit and the +1S is worthless without instant death
>>95890454forsooth, i chose my words carefully
>>95890451It should be +0 rather than I anyway
>>95890414I can understand that people take good stuff from HH3 to HH2 but why Saturnine?
>>95890451no such thing as "initiative 1" anymore since it's all modifiers now, no set values
>>95890447Looking cooler always made them worth +5 points
>>95890457We've already seen that the blaster has +1S over the saturnine cannons retard
>>95890012Seems like the best use for them is to teleport right into the face of an elite enemy squad, shoot a nearby slightly less elite squad with everything you've got, and hope you kill yourself so you blow up and also take out the squad you TP'd next to.
lol, lmao, fuckin' GW man
>>95890447Yes. Would be a more appropriate point difference than with Brutal for sure lol
>>95890414None of the weapons have 2.0 profiles and a T6 3W model with a 2+/4++ would be insufferable to deal with, let alone 3 of them for 200p
>>95890486Wow! Plasma can now instant dea-
Oh oops
>>95890447Do you have the liber to tell us it's only a 5 point upgrade?
>>95890470because i love them
>>95890447yeah, it very well could
>>95890495just 164 bolter shots to kill one :^)
>>95890451I was also thinking this, should just be "-"
Have we seen the Wounds chart yet?
Do we know if you double the toughness you might Critical Hit by rolling a certain value like the BS chart?
>>95890502i still think Wilph's are better
So by the looks of it the Disintegrator on the Dread will be what FP2 S8 AP2 D3 Overload (2)? Truly the edition of the Disintegrator and melta lol
>>95890527We've seen a smidgen, but it looks the same. WS chart is also the same before you ask.
>>95889715>Plasma even worseI shudder to think what they are going to do to blast artillery weapons
No wonder those quad launchers went on sale before the rule came out
>>95890538Looks exactly the same as the current wound chart. That's a relief.
Plasma better be free at this point.
>>95890565Ah yes, because Str 7 breaching 6+ is exactly the same as a boltgun.
>>95890530i have a huge, festering soft spot for distortedmarines and some of sed's stuff really properly conveys it and the angle played off of saturnine plate unironically resulted in probably my favorite toy soldier, human or xenos, ever. strange compounded atop strange
they're scaled down to 85% (this seems almost spot-on relative to the first party kits as best i can tell) and are going to have some difference in how i do the helmets relative to how the model is set up but yeah. love 'em to bits
>>95890565I suspect Plasma is now same cost as rotor Cannons on TSS and Autocannons on TSS because they're dead in the water otherwise lol.
>>95890538We don't see any double values on this, might be hopium but we still have a chance
What's the HH equivalent to the Wolf Priest?
>>95890572I'd rather take volkites than plasma at this point.
>>95890572>it's marginally stronger that means it should be around the same cost as melta!If you don't care about wargear cost go play 40k
>>95890572If a plasma gun is 1 shot, yes, actually

Yikes plasma guns are gonna be breaching 5+ too like the plasma bombards, as if plasma wasn't meh already last ed
>>95887158Thanatars don't have barrage anymore.
Wtf does the Overload special rule mean?
>>95890659>Only one person can think I'm retarded>Slightly rephrasing "if you don't care about wargear costs go back to 40k" to "so you don't care about wargear costs" is putting words in your mouthFuck I hate summer so much it's unreal
>>95890659>>95890565>Plasma better be free at this point.
>>95890675To hit rolls of 1 target the unit shooting the weapon.
>>95890565its so over for plasmacels
>>95890414No, not functionally. Their defensive profile only works for 3.0.
If you toned them down, either only 3w or maybe 2w t5? then yea, you probably could find a way to make them work, but being immune to instant death matters a LOT in 2.0 whereas in 3.0 thats not even a thing that exists.
Their fists also dont really make sense in 2.0. What would they even be? S6 brutal(2/3)? I guess that works but its weird.
>>95890681>you're not allowed to call out multiple people for having the same shit take>that calling them the same person somehow>>95890693Which is not the same as "plasma and bolters are the same".

>>95890414T5 W2, fist is brutal 2 Concussive. Disints twin linked 1 shot ID, plasma breaching 4+ but remove barrage. Give them Firing Protocols 2. Heavy, can't sweep. Seems fine.
>>95890748>He>HisYou were not using words to address multiple people.
Veteran squads can exchange bolters for plasmaguns. Plasma being free would imply those guns are of the same value.
>>95890796>Give them Firing Protocols 2Only if they dont move. The limitation is important imo.
>>95890787Size doesn't mean everything :^)
>>95890813Maybe. They're much easier to kill at T5, W2. Could also call the two gun arm option one weapon, a twin plasma bombard and a twin magna disintegrator. That way it's not double shots but just better accuracy and it the cost.
>>95890836>hey're much easier to kill at T5, W2With small arms sure, but its still two "big" hits either way. And there isnt really anything oneshotting them now, as opposed to 3.0 where melta and some melee weapons will do it.
>Could also call the two gun arm option one weapon, a twin plasma bombard and a twin magna disintegrator. That way it's not double shots but just better accuracy and it the cost.I think thats a bit tricky given they can mix and match between the guns and fist.

Anons.... I am ashamed... I just anonymously lost an argument on the internet, how will I ever recover?
>>95890787I think the stats for the axe are fine, I just dont like it being reaping blow. To me that sort of axe is an executioners weapon, it should have had some sort of critical blow functionality (representing beheading) but be less normally damaging than the hammer.
The current stats are more something I would expect from a greatsword.
But anyways, most primarch weapons arent very high on the S modifier (or even particularly good). Going by 2.0 most of them would be upgraded if they picked up a regular thunder hammer. Its the primarchs themselves who are super scary.

>>95890879Huge improvement
>>95890879My DG buddy just painted up his Kratos so I want to one up him to motivate him to paint his falchion
>>95890894They can have one plasma bombard and one disintegrator too.
>>95890873NTA but I think Paragon Blades should represent a class of weapons in the rules too, like how power weapons work. You choose a special rule from a list like Murderous Strike 5+, Reaping Blow 3, Critical 6+, Concussive 1, Duelist Edge 1, etc.
>>95890912Critical IS the new murderous strike I reckon.
But sure, that would be cool. Id be down for paragon axes/spears/mauls to also be a thing.
>>95890904Scrap that option entirely, too silly
>>95890894>no option for two fists with two shredders
>>95890923They dont have that currently either
Which legion would be the likeliest to have jump pack termies?
>saturnine are T6 3W
>power Axes aren't even AP2 guaranteed anymore
Veteran Squad assaulting Saturnine praetor, M31.006, colorized lol
>>95890937maybe nightlords with lightning claws?
>>95890937Space Wolves, because they will do anything just to not teleport their terminators.
>>95890937Iron Hands, and it's always a dangerous terrain test. Landing nearby causes a blind test. Call them Cockatrices.
>>95890941>Saturnine have 2A>hit on 5s>tiny unit sizesThe flipside is also true
Also, power axes ARE guaranteed AP2 vs saturnine. Because if you wound them on a 5+ you also happen to breach. Same reason lightning claws were AP2 vs dreads in 2.0.
>>95890931And that's why they're bad, James. You're bad.
>>95890937Blood angels, because they already have jump dreads.
>>95890949NL arent allowed nice toys.
>>95890873He's just using the axe for spin to win
>>95890957>Iron Cockatrice TerminatorsOk you did not have to cook this hard on a fucking 4chan thread.
>>95890941power axes are effectively always AP2 against saturnines because theyโre breaching(5+) and require a 5+ to-wound.
>>95890994That's a lot of parts.
>>95890941Assuming points stay roughly the same its something like 10 veterans vs 3 saturnine terminators (theyre just under 3:1 in terms of points cost).
The veterans go first with 30 attacks, hitting on 3s for 20 hits, wounding on 5s for 7~ wounds, so 3~ wounds dead or a dead saturnine. The terminators then swing back with 4 attacks hitting on 5s, which means they kill around 1 veteran.
Saturnine terminators are bad at close combat, when something that can fight gets there they will not do well. Their power is in their ability to weather ranged firepower (especially small arms) and in their potentially powerful ranged weapons.
>>95890994>The stupid disc ornamentation is separateThank the Emperor
leaker anon PLEASE unit types!
>>95890879That looks pretty fuckin good
T6 W3 2+ 4++ is so ridiculously tanky, Iโm just going to have to stay mobile and avoid saturnines all game arenโt I. 10 lascannons on the move kill 0 on average, and stationary they kill 1.
>>95891027Just hit them in melee.
>>95890994Can you post the rules for the movement phase leaker anon?
I don't think we've seen that yet
>>95891027It's so you have to get your own saturnine to counter the other guy's saturnine and now saturnine is fucking everywhere.
>>95891027Melta is fantastic into them, a TSS melta squad kills 2-3 per activation regardless of range
>>95891037JUST HIT THEM IN MELEE. Or let them kill themselves if they have disintegrators.
A squad of proper terminators will cost effectively beat them, especially if theyre t5 now. Ws5 terminators will utterly wash the floor with them. Melta is also d3 now, even at long range. Melta predators will do just fine against them.
>>95891027If there's something more retarded than moving lass canons is doing so while engaging a unit with 24" max range
>>95891027>, Iโm just going to have to stay mobile and avoid saturnines all game arenโt IIts not exactly going to be hard if you want to do it. So sure.
Or shoot them with heavy weapons. Or engage them with elites of your own. Or use a tank because they cant crack Av14 in any meaningful way.
Just dont shoot them with tacticals, that probably doesent work well.
I was looking to run a campaign in a dense urban environment and need a bunch of buildings and other curios of urban life like utility boxes, benches, fountains and statues and other crap. problem is all of this stuff is expensive and I dont have a 3d printer, is there any plyboard, cardboard, pressboard, or other cheap alternatives I can buy online for this type of stuff in heresy scale? primarily buildings I can find ways of getting the more decorative pieces.
>>95891052I had assumed theyโd be deep striking with their AP3 flamers. The other weapons donโt look strong.
>they deepstrike and flame something>everything else has to run away and stay 13โ away or get the bad touchthough as some other anon pointed out I could just send in a combat vet squad or something to fight it out in melee.
>>95891076Check local goodwill equivalent for discount toys. Something's sprayed metal and black to look burnt out works well. You could use cardboard boxes and just print office windows etc on paper and go full paper hammer.
>>95891077>I had assumed theyโd be deep striking with their AP3 flamersI think they might, and if done properly that sort of assault will be devastating, but thats a 500~pts unit between them and the praetor (their one and only unless they use a prime detachment benefit).
What happens if the tacticals are in transports/there isnt a good 3+ save target? What happens if some nearby meltas intercept and kill a couple of them? What happens when they show up, kill a unit a fraction of their cost and end up stuck in an inopportune place? Do they just bend over for when a command squad rocks up? Its not like the saturnine praetor is a super killy dude either, hes durable but frankly thats not going to cut it imo with only 4 attacks.
>>95891077I wouldn't deepstrike a WS4 termi squad, AP3 flamer or not, wait til we see satty command squad rules.
>>95891048>ActivationPlease go back
>>95891122>wait til we see satty command squad rulesWill it even exist? And will they be like 100ppm each even if it does?
Going by what we saw in the article the teleport homer only works on normal saturnines anyways too, unless deepstrike automatically confers to your retinue.

>>95891135>Will it even exist?Yes, can't find the photo, but it's official models with a top banner, one guy has a hammer and the other an axe. I'd assume they get everything the Praetor does plus the normal marines. Probably come as 2+X so you can use the leftover Praetor bits to mod two normal ones.
The explodes thing is funny because you can kill one and wipe out the rest of the squad
>>95891222Nope. Maybe it weakens their self killing with overload, maybe it makes melta weaker, maybe its a special name for their invuln save and its actually worse in melee (lol)
>>95891241Technically yes, but its lottery ticket luck.
>>95891232Why would you lie to the poor sap?
>>95891222>Additionally, it boasts a reactor powerful enough to operate multiple energy weapons and a thermal diffraction field that also aids in the safe dispersion of the deadly energies unleashed upon the wielder by their deadly plasma weaponrythat's as much detail as we got
>>95888997Nah. These kind of dipshits love to complain about rules and balance but they suck at writing rules because they have no passion, just salt.
>>95891273+1 to breach with plasma maybe? Reroll saves vs gets hot?
>>95891211I don't.
For one, you can simplify the wargear to:
- Any model can swap it's disruption fist for a plasma bombard for free
- Any model can swap a plasma bombard for a twin heavy disintegrator for +10pts each
And that covers all cases. Also, splitting the options across two columns while the above stuff isn't is dumb.

>>95891181>>95891187Starter book wrong as always lmfao
>>95891222If it removes Overcharge then the disintegrators actually become fairly scary
>>95891377>Nothing Personal
>>95891180use Fear instead and see them running. Unless Sallies are fearless again.
>>95891377>1680 points of saturnine terminators>all of them m5, so you either need to spend lots of points on land raiders for them or DS (have fun with your praetors)
>>95891370I thought you couldnโt swap out a weapon you have already swapped for, because that leads to all sorts of janky shit.
>>95891397>blasts u back>get blasted back in return>this goes on for the whole game
>>95891398This makes me want to run a fear bomb like Iโm playing warhammer fantasy.
>>95891411Why cant you? Im pretty sure thats how several legion special weapons work (you swap/buy a new weapon, then swap/upgrade it to the other one)
>>95891135>saturnine praetor 200 pts>tp 60 pts>saturnine termies 200 pts>template ap3 weapon +15 pts for three guys>475 pts totalI don't know, guys; their DS is ultra expensive. What 3+ units are we even supposed to kill with that squad? 20 reavers with fists? 10 ravagers? 15 Raptors?
200-260 seems fine when shooting dreads or elite 2+ 2w units from disintegrators or blasting 1w MeQ from afar with...blasts. That way they can at least bring their points back. They need to get +BS though.
>>95891405slowboat wall march and just take the field yo
or die trying
>>95891415>Blasts you backNot with that slow and purposeful you won't lmao
>>95891411It did in prior editions of 40k but it works like that in 2.0 at least
How shit is the dread going to be? It doesn't even have a fist option
>>95891385they can volley
>Implacable Advance means that they can volley fire with their guns when being charged,
>>95891421>What 3+ units are we even supposed to kill with that squad?HSS maybe? Expensive veteran units? but yea, its a big commitment.
>200-260 seems fine when shooting dreads or elite 2+ 2w units from disintegratorsThe issue there is that you take a lot of self damage from the D guns, and theyre 80ppm each with that loadout. Like small rifleman dreads. Also m4 with a 24" range gun (and they cant move and fire both)
>>95891431twenty four inches of range is HUGE i say
>>95891418I suppose youโre right. I had never thought about it in the context of legion weaponry.
>>95891446Abysmal
That plasma alone if probably just going to be a large blast version of them
>>95891446>How shit is the dread going to be?m4, Damage 4 disintigrator, big plasma mortar. T9 12W
>>95891446Yet. Starter contemptor was missing half the weapon options and Leviathan & Deredeo both got split in two sets for their loadouts. It probably gets a melee arm kit down the line.
>>95891411Usually, the limits are in the wording, such as the difference between "You can swap any" and "You can swap one"
>>95891256>>95891232>>95891135Found it. 100% a command squad with banner and spare Praetor bits.
>>95891453You need to scatter them across the map somehow
>>95891483Or just a conversion.
>>95891483Expect it to be a campaign book unit.
>>95891490A conversion of what? Does that banner exist already somewhere?
>Roll a 1
>Terminator anheros
>Blows up
>Takes the rest of the squad and three near by tacticals with it
Good unit
>>95891496Pretty sure the normal command squad kit has that.
>>95891453>tfw youโre shooting her with your full 24โ but she says youโre still out of range
>>95886981I hope they become a proper consul type. Itโd be neat to have vehicle characters.
WIP
>>95891496>Does that banner exist already somewhere?I think so? or at least something similar enough to where I would expect them to be able to make this fairly easily.
>>95891452>The issue there is that you take a lot of self damage from the D gunsIt's true, so I guess the safest and cheapest way is to put them somewhere behind the wall and let them barrage (1) MEQ with their default bombards, but that way they won't hit anything. Maybe we don't know about some wargear or characters that help to mitigate that. How does Overload even work if we aren't rolling a hit dice?
>>95891548Dont need to hide behind a wall, theyre super durable vs regular guns. Just stick them midfield and pound any MEQ that try and hold objectives with 6 blasts a turn. Think of their mortars less like plasma and more like quad launchers.
Man,the more I think about Saturnine the more shit they actually seem lmao
>Deep strike requires 260 point sink woth Praetor
>Proteus can carry 3, Spartan 6
>Slow
>No reactions
>Guns(disintegrators) that can extremely easily kill them if you roll poorly
>WS4 and BS4
>Need to stand still to shoot both arms
Like the only thing that seems actually good for them is the flamer,but even then,they can't react,so they'll get rofl-stomped in melee and can't overwatch
>>95891490GW doesn't do "just a conversion" anymore, especially of an illegal loadout. Everything they photograph is an official legal unit in photos for various reasons. The Praetor can't get a shredder and regular satties can't get the hammer, banner, or axe. It could be two satty centurions; a herald and just a guy but I find that unlikely that they would photo op them together like that.
>>95891483>100% a command squadThat's literally the small banner from the mkIII/VI command squad
I really doubt this is a unit that is going to release on it's own
Maybe an exemplary battles pdf if anything
>>95890663But DoomerAnon said it would be a shooting edition.
>>95891501>deepstrike then into the middle of the enemy>fire explosive weapons into the enemy's face which kills them, so they explode again in the enemy's face Ideal word bearer unit
>>95891548well, in 2.0, gets hot on templates and blast just rolls a d6, if it's a 1, you self-hit, if not, proceed as normal
>>95891581Making a saturnine command squad sprue by copy-pasting bits from the normal command squad and the saturnine praetor is exactly the kind of thing I'd expect from the HH team
Rolled 3, 2 = 5 (2d6)
I'm not feeling too good about things, Anons. I'm gonna roll a cool check before I despair.
>>95891584Still very much is, only difference is which guns are on top.
>>95891624But what's your cool stat
>>95891608Yeah, I wish we had the full text of the new overload rule.
>>95890433>assault cannon isn't assaultruleslet
>>958916348. I'm very cool.
>>95891452>The issue there is that you take a lot of self damage from the D gunsI wonder if you get invul saves against overload (2) or something, because otherwise a squad of 3 saturnines with 6 heavy disintegrators are going to kill themselves every single time they shoot
>>95891501>Already took a damage>Rolled a 1 (16.67%)>Rolled your 3+ to wound yourself (11.14%)>Failed your invuln (5.7%)>Rolled a 6 to explode (0.95%)>Rolled 6 successful 2+ wound rolls (0.32%)>Failed 3 2+ saves (0.0014%)>Failed another 3 3+ saves (0.000055%)>Rolled another 6 to explode again (0.0000091%)>Rolled 3 more 2+ wound rolls (0.0000053%)>Failed 3 more 2+ saves (0.000000025%)At that point god just hates you personally
>>95891653It'll eventually happen
>>95890994>2 part faceI see the design team gets paid by the part count as much as the rules team gets paid by the word count

>>95891653Its more the fact that it can happen at all thats funny.
>>95891587Word Bearers Saturnine shouls spawn Daemons when they explode
>>95891658And given infinite time I'll eventually have a game where my mean roll value is between 1 and 2, but dooming and glooming over that eventuality won't get me anywhere
>>95891653If you actually play the game, you should know those are baby odds
Leakanon, leak something.
>>95891668>Word Bearers Saturnine shouls spawn Daemons when they explodeDon't worry, they'll retcon gal vorbak so you can get possessed saturnine
>>95891187>WS Saturnines are movement 6"SPEEEEEED
>>95891581>>95891614It's just going to instruct you to use bits from other kits EXACTLY like the new Augery Command and Control Squad. GW has established a precedent with 3.0 that some units will not have stand alone dedicated model.
It's just going to be a text box, again like the new Augery unit, to use a command box banner and spare Praetor parts.
>>95891684Oh you've seen the legion rules already? Cool dude post them here.
You have seen the new legion rules right?
You aren't just assuming the rules will stay exactly the same are you?
>>95891483This could be the third unit in the istvaan journal?
>>95891706I am making a joke about how the WS legion trait will almost certainly be meaningless to this unit who are possibly the slowest non-immobile option in the Marine catalogue
>>95891273Huh, that does sound like it interacts with overload somehow. Rerolling saves would make them really tanky, removing it outright would be wild.
>>95891712Probably. We might get the Exemplary Battles units in these journals too. They've established that some will require poaching models/kit bashing already.
>>95891722If they ignore the overload from plasma cannons it would be pretty good but a 2+ save vs it is already as good as you can get. I don't think we're going to be seeing rerolling much anywhere this edition unless it's baked into Consul rules.
>AL pathfinder/moritat/headhunter kill team allied detachment via logistical benefit prime presuming the headhunters are legion elites
>>95891722They removed all rerolls from the rules I don't think they are gonna make new ones with that mechanic
>>95891678God I hope they do because it'll make me converting them into proto-Obliterators when more appropriate
Also with the way gal vorbak work, their original armor and weaponry doesn't really matter that much no? There was an entry in Black book 3 of a gal vorbak who was a jetbike rider who just ditched his ride to transform and kill lol. Really you could have gal vorbak in any armor and it wouldn't matter because warp says lol to conservation of mass. We power Rangers nigga
>>95891804>>95891722More likely since overload is auto hit not auto wound it'll be -1 to being wounded by overload hits. Gets them to 4+ to bring wounded by their own guns.
Do you think legions will have negative traits like they did in 1.0?
I hope that they didn't turn Apothecaries and techmarines in to something lame.
>>95891738Makes me wonder what lightning claws will do now
>>95891928DA in 2.0 had a ton of negative traits. Their rites were unusable, and GW didn't want to give them the power level of rules they should have being the first and best legion.
>>95891928Hopefully, it really added more flavour. Though they should be more more evenly balanced, the legion negative traits in 1.0 ranged from barely existent to crippling the entire army.
>>95891928For fluff reasons i would
But... It could end up terrible
>>95891936Shred, breaching if two are used, +1A, AP3, Strenght as user?
>>95891928I'd hope so, they were pretty funny and flavourful.
I just want the libers so I know what the fuck my army composition will look like
>>95891944ugh, Iโm already mad because raven guard are going to have shred(5+) talons and kill everything at initiative again.
>>95891712I assume so, along with the augery and control squad, but what's the third? The whirlwind conversion?
>>95891976I'd prefer if we didn't. Having them be good at shredding armour is one thing, but we've always leaned on flurries of attacks, not big damage per attack.
>>95891928No. They removed a ton of rules like extra attacks on charges, night fighting and all reroll
If anything legion rules sound like they are going to be boring af
>>95891928I have a feeling legions may play with the new FOC a lot more
I hope they put the exemplary battles units in the libers
>>95891928Yes, but wider if that makes sense. RG won't be able to take more vehicle units than infantry for example. Legion traits will be tame too, like infiltrate for RG infantry. Then Prime Benefits will get a bit more exciting. I expect legions to get several each; things like shrouded 5+, +1 to a stat, Fleet, etc.
>>95891928no, legion traits are cancer that make absolutely no sense. Legions should be defined by the units and formations they favour not a magic +1 to toughness or some other nonsense. Nor should a marine randomly be worse at something because their primarch's feet hurt at parties.
>>95892008Enjoy your pdf, no units without a specific kit in the libers :^)
>>95892091No, fuck off. Thousand Sons should get psyker praetors and willpower buffs just as much as EC sergeants should all have champion
>>95892091Unironically kinda based.
>>95892097There is literally no such thing as a veteran kit or even a kit tagged as being made for veterans and yet they are introducing more veteran units not less.
>>95892091I donโt see why itโs fine for a legion to have an identity of punching harder and get to field a special unit that punches harder, but itโs not okay to say that their legionnaires punch harder.
>>95891576>GW doesn't do "just a conversion" anymore, especially of an illegal loadout.They've shown them even in 10th edition 40k codexes.
>>95892091So true!
Is this model usable in 30k? I think it looks cooler than the mechanicum archmagos prime.
>>95888754That's a good point, though for now it's just going to be a tester. Besides, I accidentally dropped it at one point, which snapped the plate beneath the gunner. I might try to pin the next one, or maybe just glue some wire beneath it.
>>95889027It's one of the Legions Imperialis STLs. The bike scaled up pretty well. The crew not so much, but they were easily replaced with proper 30k-sized Legionaries.
>>95892090Based and nicely-painted.
>>95892212Very similar to the old Magos Dominus model, minus the funky hat.
Leakeranon.
May we please see some Custodes lore pages?
>>95891928I hope they do, I love that they represented ALs Martial Hubris in 1.0
>>95892091> Umm actually a design space that has been an integral part of this system since the beginning?> Yeah that is actually wrongSweaty maybe take your frog posting fag ass and walk on out of here m'kay??
>>95892212It's entirely common for people to directly proxy 40k tech priest models as whatever the fuck in 30k. They only recently even made a dedicated archmagos model other than the alt build of draykavac, and the plastic archmagos kit has no options and is kind of bad.
>>95892212I used him to make myrmidons.
>>95892283There is no custodes lore pages anon, he was just shitposting. He said as much
>>95892212He is a Magos/Tech prest, i don't see why not
>>95892337>mountain dew power axes
>>95891650Should do, its just a standard weapon profile hit on the unit. So S7 Ap2 D2 in this case.
>>95891715>are possibly the slowest non-immobile option in the Marine catalogueRapiers?
>>95886639 (OP)What went wrong circular bros. Surely he will create new incentive rules and not make a mess
>>95892481> inventiveFUCK ruined my own bit
At most might just get three with a praetor for the sake of painting, maybe figure out some cog tooth prints for the shoulder pad edges. I think an iron father saturnine praetor leading 3 would be kind of fun to run, deep strike them in the middle of the board and see how much damage they can take
>>95892481Liber Retardicus
>>95891936I see two possible futures:
Shred(6+). breaching(6+), Ap3 (Spike machines)
Rending(6+), Shred(6+), Ap3 (super power armor blenders)
If its the former they will keep their same generalist role, but be far more feast or famine. If its the latter they murder everything without a 2+ armor save and then bounce off harmlessly vs terminators.
>>95892212You are going to have only a single archmagos and your entire army is going to revolve around him for better or worse. Don't waste that on a unconverted model that GW has put out in the hundreds of thousands.
>>95892540I hope it's the latter, there's more than enough options for fighting 2+ saves between power Fists, Chainfists, and thunder Hammers on Terminators.
Actually speaking of which, I wonder what chainfists will be now that vehicles are do different. Maybe something like S+6 AP2 D1, to make it good at penetrating vehicles but bad at sustained melee combat with infantry? Or maybe shock (pinned) for gumming up vehicles?
>>95892556>only have a single archmagos Get this whack ass pretender out of here, you're not a real mechanicum player until you have at least 10 archmagos models
would anyone happen to have a leaked entry pertaining to Slow and Purposeful?
>>95892580>there's more than enough options for fighting 2+ saves between power Fists, Chainfists, and thunder Hammers on Terminators.One of the things im most interested to see is how they handle the various legion unique weapons. Like are escaton power claws going to be power fists with critical blow/shred? Are terranic greatswords D1 or D2? Maybe S+2 Ap3 D1 but Critical Strike+Breaching. I think there might be some really interesting combinations out there.
>what will chainfists be nowMaybe have a special attack like meltabombs. Maybe be power fists with armorbane.
>>95890994Have we got the text for rules like Pinning, suppressive and stun? I imagine they just force a check on the relevant stat with number in brackets degrading the roll?
>>95892708Yes and yes. They work exactly the same as you would expect.
Speaking of rules questions though: Does having two close combat weapons/a weapon + pistol still give an extra attack? I cant help but notice the lack of specialist weapons
>>95886639 (OP)>TQFinished drop pod recently.
Nothing new to show so far.
>>95892739Probably not. We suspect it got replaced by volley fire
>>95892749What IS volley fire anyways. Is it just an extra shooting attack when you charge in? Whats the benefit of having two melee weapons over a weapon + gun now?
>>95892744Fuck me those are sexy.
>>95892758Yeah thats pretty much it. Both you and your target can snapfire assault weapons at each other. So far the only benefit it choice of melee weapon, but we havenโt seen the full core book and nothing from the liber
>>95892758>What IS volley fire anyways.during a charge, both sides can shoot with any assault (The trait. Type is gone, and most pistols are assault) weapons before the charge connects.
If you get close enough before charging, you can skip volley if you want to.
>>95892212Isn't the logo on the axe slightly different in 30k? Other than that he's kosher
>>95892617I'm worried for my Ravens Talons. If shred still exists on all weapons that had it would they also get breaching? Or would they get rending 5+ and shred and then any 5+ hit roll would just be an auto wound at D2?
>>95892792>Or would they get rending 5+ and shred and then any 5+ hit roll would just be an auto wound at D2?That could be it. It would make ravens talons INSANE at killing power armor, but worthless into everything better. Autowound (with d2) on 2/3 of your hits seems pretty strong.
>>95892792The "best case scenario" (power wise) is probably rending (6+), breaching (6+), shred(6+)
>>95892801Maybe they shake up Dark Furies and only Choosers get Talons and the rest get normal claws thus Talons become Redning 5+, Shred 5+, Breaching 6+ just to fuck with all of us.
>>95892616It's not in the USRs Leaker-anon posted.
>>95892823I think theyll keep talons as the RG lightning claw upgrade.
>Redning 5+, Shred 5+, Breaching 6+ just to fuck with all of us.Insane. 1/3 to autowound at D2 with Ap2? Literally better than Sigismund's sword.
leaker anon come back and give us good news to make up for dog shit plasma
Can't wait for them to remake the last RT terminator as an even bigger terminator with a built in heavy CML on the carapace.
>>95892875Charonite looking MFs
Anyone got the leaks compiled? I wanna look at the usrs.
>>95892889https://imgur.com/a/344L8ku
>>95892915Many thanks brรถther.
>>95892915I know rapid fire is gone but where's assault?
>>95892988Also gone, it's just a descriptor trait now
>>95892993So you can charge with any weapon now?
>>95892988There's no actual rules for them. I think it's just used on volley fire
>>95893011I'm still waiting on the full rules bc it wouldn't be impossible for charges to be declared on the shooting phase or something like that.
It's pretty weird that there is a full shooting phase inside the charge phase otherwise
>>95893025Charging before the shooting phase now, like in WHFB.
