What are your hopes for the narrative conclusion of 10th edition?

There was a narrative!?

Tyranid win

>>96064987
so they reach terra and eat everything and no more 40k?

are you retarded?

Death to the corpse emperor.

>What's your favorite kit and why

necrons stop fucking around and use the celestial orrery to blow up the solar system’s sun and annihilate terra

>>96065025
They really need to retcon that shit.

>>96065025
how did these retards not win the war in heaven

Play Crusade and write fluff for YourDudes and YourFriendsDudes

>>96065090
they did

>>96064997
Yes

>>96065063
>eldar kill stars
>old ones kill stars
>the winners cant kill stars
the lore you want to be is not the lore you get

What if the emperor is just faking it and he could’ve just gotten off the throne at any time?

>>96065095
I'm going to base /my dudes/ Overlord on a Final Fantasy characrer and nobody can stop me.

>>96065110
old ones are dead, the eldar must sacrifice a gorillion novels to kill a star and then still lose the battle AND the war, while necrons could theoretically wipe out the entire galaxy with a casual gesture

it's not a matter of fairness, it's a matter of inconsistency and the asspulls and retarded characterisations required to keep it up, you can't have an element so important and pretend nobody wants to use it.

>>96065122
Isn't that just Zahndrekh?

>>96065137
well if enough orks believe in a chaos god then that chaos god wins

its not the asspull you should be complaining about, you should take a note from /co/ and blame the writier, pulling out the full name including the middle initial of the perp that wrote where he touched your dolly

>>96065149
No? Zandrekh isn't just a nihilist after better and better fights

>>96065162
why dont gork or mork go krump the 4 gitz then. im sure more boyz exist than believers in any of the 4 chaos kunts

>>96065137
Why destroy a star when you can take it and harness it? You doom the star system either way.

>>96065149
Zahndrekh is a lot more 'jovial' and 'spirited', by Necron standards.

>>96065162
>well if enough orks believe in a chaos god then that chaos god wins
No, that's not how orks work, and that's an absurdly impossible scenario, unlike the necrons using the tool for its immediate function.

Stop defending bad writing with even worse arguments.

>>96065201
>well akshullay
You're not thinking about this right.
Thing's aren't canon until a writer makes it so. It's the fucking writers. The anecdotal part of my post was that "A writer can do this". They don't follow the rules per se. They do what they fucking want when allowed.

GO AFTER THE WRITER not the GENRE or COMPANY.... its the WRITER

Name drop them ffs.

Tell me about yourdudes, the got a unique name and color scheme or are they an existing army with your own spin on it?

>>96065226
In GW's case it *is* their fault, all books not written directly by them are considered non-canon until they say otherwise and they reserve the sole right to point to a book and declare that the work is or is not a part of the greater whole, even their own. Especially their own. It's a losing battle to ever care about the details because it won't matter in the end, and GW will keep it that way so they can play fast and loose with their IP to always be able to chase new markets

>>96065226
Not that anon, but GW doesn’t credit the author of the codex’s lore, and the last time they did it was Matt Ward, who left the company because people in fact were shitting on him that much. I’m not brushed up on my Necron lore, but if it’s still in the books the only one to blame would be James Workshop.

>>96065292
I wanted gold armor sisters and GW made the "gold armor" order like ten times cooler than any lore i would be allowed to come up with. People would call it dumb as shit if I tried making it myself.
>uh so yeah my order is ALL living martyrs like celestine you cant REALLY kill them hehe

>>96065319
ah yes, the warddex era

i'm still bootybothered by them getting rid of wargear/points
i'm still assblasted by primaris
why am i still so angry about this shit
aside from me being retarded

>>96065292
They're these dudes
https://wh40k.lexicanum.com/wiki/Serpentine_Scourge
who are only a warband because that's how Lexicanum decided to interpret the flavor text of picrel. Could simply be his nickname.
I just wanted green and silver CSM but didn't want the ebin ninja version of AL. Some anon gave me the idea.
I also play them as Tzeentch-aligned because I have always liked Tzeentch but I think TS look kinda ass. The idea of god-specific CSM warband is just appealing.
Lexicanum lists them as Undivided on this page
https://wh40k.lexicanum.com/wiki/Chaos_Space_Marine_Legions_and_Warbands_(List)
but they have no source for that so I'm not sure where it came from.

>>96065465
looks like you already have your answer anon

>>96065465
You're here, which means you're autistic. Autistic people are not fond of changes to things they like.

How's everyone doing on this lovely Friday afternoon? Excited about the preview?
. . .
You'd better be.

>>96065493
>you're here, which means you're autistic
NTA I wish this was still true.

>>96065520
>Excited about the preview?
When is it?

>>96065465
Because you're using 40K to cling onto how you felt when you first discovered it.
The further it moves away from the rule system as it was when you started playing, the harder it is for you to pretend that you're still at that stage in your life.

>>96065490
Remind me again why the "plans within plans/good luck im behind seven proxy wars/I've been inside your walls since before you were born" legion got passed over by Tzeentch in favor of gay space wizards

>>96065527
Next Friday
Honestly, just do yourself a favour and check the reveals after the fact. The live shows are always at least 75% filler content.

are there any alternate heads for rubricae? i hate so much of the TSons aesthetic but love others

>>96065550
The best part of the live shows is following along here as people lose their fucking minds over the slightest perceived insult or even a hint of slop they are desperate to consume.

>>96065565
Just greenstuff flames

>>96065545
Because Andy Chambers wanted a legion of space golems lead by wizards.

>>96065565
shit taste

>>96065568
>people lose their fucking minds over the slightest perceived insult or even a hint of slop they are desperate to consume.
I'm going to have the first post claiming that all of the new space marine stuff looks like trash to farm maximum (You)s.

>>96065565
You can use Scarab Occult terminator heads on rubricae bodies if you want to keep the trim and Egyptian theming, but don't like the bunny ears.

>>96065226
I can blame the writer, the company, the genre and you for defending this shit with dishonest false dichotomies.
I have plenty of spite to spare.

>>96065465
>i'm still bootybothered by them getting rid of wargear/points
11th will go back to having points, I'm sure of it. They realized they fucked up and had to separate shit like Eldar support weapons and Tau crisis suits into 3 separate units to compensate.

>>96065591
anon no one likes the heads. its okay to not pretend to like them

>>96065606
NTA but I like them a lot, they're cool as fuck

I've been a long time Warhammer fan, but today I finally broke down and decided to actually build a full army. I love the insane religious zealotry aspect of the setting, so a Sororitas Penitent Host army seemed like the move.

I bought the Penitent Host box set. How should I build it to get a 500pt army I can start playing with?

>>96065605
You're massively coping.

This is the same as people who said "oh, they have to get rid of the double turn when they update toi AoS 3.0, look at all the hoops they've had to jump through to make it work, and everyone hates it."

Or like all the current malding in the HH general
"Oh, there's no way GW would ever box-lock loadouts for heresy, they know that the customisation is one of the things people love about the game compared to 40k".

>>96065631
I'd recommend plastic cement for the infantry and superglue for the vehicles. Mabye support some of the stuff with cement. It's a good idea to remove the mold lines. This is something most rookies forget and it will haunt you later.

>>96065465
Why wouldn't you be angry?

Time does not in fact make things better, they make things worse

>>96065631
Build and paint all of this before you worry about army composition. The meta will change by the time you are done anyway.

>>96065565
If the helmets bug you, you're going to want a different army tbdesu, but 1/3 of generic CSM helmets do the trick. Here's a raptor head on a sorceror a guy at my LGS did.

>>96065598
Nice alpha legion helmets

>>96065545
because your shitty headcanon about the alpha legion fitting tzeentch more will never matter

>>96065631
1 HQ
2 Troops
Go from there

>>96065329
fucking lazy dumb gw SJW idiots.

copy the legion of the damned as are sisters a copy of SM.

Imperial agents expansion is coming
I can feel it...
>TQ
Don't bring back primarchs unless it's Lorgar because I like that guy a bit
I don't know what the fuck is left for anyone to do in 10th edition I haven't kept up with the main plotlines much. Maybe Vashtorr stops being a nothingburger but I have only so many "I can feel it"s to spare and they are not going to spiky mechanicum.

>>96065704
>>96065708
The duality of man.

>>96065679
I've been doing models for years, this is just the first time I'm trying to make a playable army
>>96065694
I don't car about Meta I mean like, how can I build A 500pt army out of the kits in this box that I can start playing with asap?

>>96065545
Because TS are up their own ass
AL actually gets shit done without chaos being able to dangle anything

You're a sorcerer? Sell me your soul for exotic forbidden knowledge
You're an alpha legionaire? Are you really? How did you get here?

>>96065727
holy ESL

>>96065713
I thought Troops weren't real anymore?

>>96065528
eh, i can sort of follow this logic, but i'm much happier now as a person than i was when i first started playing

>>96065631
>long time Warhammer fan
>just bought his first miniatures
??

>>96065565
go helmetless, not like they have heads in there to begin with

>>96065465
Because you're clinging onto a thing that no longer exists.

Haven't showered in over 2 weeks and my pubes smell fucking atrocious lads
Too busy painting my Orks

>>96065598
not bad

>>96065573
not good enough

>>96065771
anon, you get me

>>96065545
GW probably thought that it was too on the nose.
Not like it matters though, Tzeentch definetly having a good laugh over it anyway regardless.

>>96065752
As long as you remember them
As long as you believe in them
They'll always be here
In your trachea
Fuck anything after 4th ed

>>96065565
Why would you even consider TSons if you don't like such a staple part of their aesthetic lol

>>96065761
long time shitter, first time wiper

>>96065761
Where'd you get the second line from? I've built tons of miniatures.

Hands of Midas

>reestablished as a fleet based chapter on a penance crusade in defense and enforcement of Imperial Tithes
>forced to re-use and repair old equipment, resulting in functional and honorific kintsugi repairs across most of their wargear

>>96065565
Can always do your own thing, horus your own heresy

>>96065734
take out one rhino and one mortifier and thats 500 points.

I don’t think people actually like thousand sons. They just like wizards in power armor and it just so happens that thousand sons are the only army that fits that criteria.

>>96065734

kino, have any painted up?

>>96065837
I think they look cool and the turquoise/gold scheme is beautiful, I don't give a shit about their lore

>>96065605
That was so you could still have a number of crisis suits in you army instead of just three squads.
Same with Eldar support platforms. They're just a heavy weapon.

>>96065814
>paint scheme
>forced to re-use and repair old equipment, resulting in functional and honorific kintsugi repairs across most of their wargear

Hello?

>>96065839
Shush, I am making my own bible of homerulez.

>>96065845
im going to paint up a unit of them at some point, but i didnt start fleshing out the homebrew until after i had 1000+ points of Imperial fists. if i had the time or the energy to repaint everything I would.

>>96065843
>>96065868

>>96064944 (OP)
>TQ
Give the Leagues of Votann a major fucking warzone conflict to get embroiled in. That's all they really need to make them feel invested in the setting.

>>96065837
I actually like rubrics, I forget about the magicians

>>96065631
always buy models you like
never buy models for rules because the rules are constantly changing and the reason why you bought a specific model isn't going to be around forever

>>96065837
I like the Thousand Sons and their fluff, but have flufed /mydudes/ thrallband as a single, true Heresy-era Legionairre leading a band of Rubrics alongside a hand picked force of renegade sorcerers, rogue librarians and cultists who were chosen to get the geneseed implantation from fallen TSon non-rubrics. A thrallband looked upon with scorn by the veterans and "true" sons of Magnus and more content to raid archives, libraries and other collections of knowledge instead of participating in petty intrigue and legion politics on Sortiarius.

My name is Big Doug and I like to steal birds from the park

>>96066013
You can't steal a bird. They don't belong to anyone.

[Spoiler]Unless you live in England, and the bird is a Swan. They belong to the King.[/spoiler]

>>96066050
What if it's a privately owned park and the birds belong to the estate?

>>96065292
they are a kabal that the reason is life is beauty, and that the most beatiful things are ephemeral. They have a bunch of plant-related tortures, like having someone's innards turn to thorns or bamboo shoots that twist and break their bodies as they continue to grow, and these quickly rot away after death.
One of the longest tortures involves a slave undergo a metamorphosis that turns its central nervous system in thick, plant-like vines. As the rest of the flesh sloughs off, the brain and CNC remain in a state of utmost torment - the highest quality meal for a Drukhari.

The Kabal of the Ephemeral Bloom makes up for quantity of slaves with quality of torment.

Or at least, that's what my plans are. I'm not sure I have it in me to wrap all the already-pointy boats in vines.

>>96065986
Thanks Anon. Just need to find a way to get the exact color for them that I saw in a dream, get the rest of the helmets I ordered off of Ebay and I'll get them one step closer to finished. Going Rubrics and Wizards focused, with demons too. Trying to avoid Tzaangors as much as possible because they feel like they should be chaff and not the main force of the army.

Which army would look the best in wabi sabi aesthetics?

>>96066084
necrons

>>96066084
>Wasabi is green
>Orks are green too
seems like a good fit

>>96064944 (OP)
So what's the over-under on Ultima Founding Chapter's Fleet composition? Did Cawl give them a couple free Battle Barges then they're on their own or something else?

>>96066050
Poor brits, can't even spoiler without a licence

making lists is so annoying in 10th, you will be 5 points above and then you have to completely reconfigure the list because there is zero granularity, it's all 50 point increments since it's whole units

>>96066084
First born marines.

>>96066125
kek'd out loud.

>>96065876
arent white scars more psyker focused than blood angels

I went to the nearest GW store today.
Got the free mini of the month.

>>96066166
no lmao
the blood angels have the strongest non-primarch/malcador/emp psyker humanity's ever seen

Exodites when???

>>96066140
That's what you get when they give you mega blocks to build a shape with instead of Legos, because Legos might isolate people with the extra granularity.

>>96066168
I didn't even go there and I got like 5 of them
I got the lov pioneer, the EC marine, the krieg engineer and some I'm probably forgetting
This month I didn't give a fuck about

>>96066140
yep, fuck the aos system. failed system from a failed game.

>>96066166
WS have storm seers
That's it.
There's nothing special about them beside the name, it's less than SW

>>96066168
what is it?

>>96066184
Yeah they should copy hh instead

>>96065876
>>96065837
Forget Thousand Sons and Blood Angels. What about the fucking Grey Knights?

>>96066194
>>96066172
That’s what I mean. Blood angels don’t really have a system, or a classification on Psykers. Sure blood angels have several giga names psyker characters but I don’t care for them, I want a bolstered force of psykers, not named stuff.

>>96066206
They do have librarian dreadnoughts which is pretty unique
Well they had those I mean

>>96066177
this art kind of triggered a buried childhood memory of this cartoon so take it and do with it what you will

https://youtu.be/gr2iQ96em2w

>>96066197
they are the true wizards in power armor.

every grey knight is a psyker while each other army has some special characters that are psykers and the rest of the army is normal marine's.

>>96066197
grey knights are slop

>>96066236
>One man stands alone
>Shows 3 characters working together
That's it mane

I've never played the tabletop game but I think I would enjoy getting into it. How do I know what factions I would enjoy playing? What should I look for? Are there general guidelines for recommendations, like if I like simple fast aggressive big numbers type gameplay I should look at these armies but if I like controlly more abstract technical gameplay I should look at those armies?

>>96065292 (1/2)
>Tell me about yourdudes, the got a unique name and color scheme or are they an existing army with your own spin on it?

My CSM are a renegade chapter based slightly on the written works of Edgar Allen Poe thematically and with a few names. They are a continuation of my 3e CSM army from when I started 40k, but with stuff I could not afford back in the day like tanks. Everyone has a rhino, the boss and his bodyguard have a Land Raider and there are a pair of Predator tanks and a dozen bikers as well. Just need to get an old, metal Chaos Dread and they will be set.

My Necrons are also almost entirely classic green rod types and the few that are not are in the process of having their gauss weapons modded to have the transparent green rods in them. Fluff-wise, my Lord woke to find his tomb world settled by the Imperium. Instead of going to war and potentially having his holdings destroyed in extended war with the Imperium, he took over the colony by striking a deal with the governor and effectively turning the upper echelon of the local government his pawns/allies. The tithes and taxes are regular and no-one complains so the Imperium has no reason to investigate a productive and pious colony.

My Death Guard are a band of former loyalists who were trapped in the warp during a crusade and slowly corrupted and mutated until they voluntarily turned to worship of Nurgle. They were part of a sworn brotherhood with my CSM and the armies canonically lend each other support such as transports and troops when requested. They have an amusing gimmick that let me paint them up in a way that I had never seen Death Guard painted, so that makes me happy.

My Loyalist marines have a history dating back to the Heresy and mostly are content to do their part in the war to protect the Imperium. Nothing too fancy although they have a lot of corvidae jokes and bird references.

My Thousand Sons Thrallband are >>96065953 So no retyping that out.

>>96066296
You will love whatever looks coolest to you. Most army's themes match their playstyle.

>>96066296
pick a faction entirely off of which ones appeal to you aesthetically then ask around because if your choice is admech/GSC/dark eldar you're in for some pain if you go with them as a first army
once you have one you like the look of buy a box of the basic infantry and the necessary tools and paint to see if you even like building/assembling them before you sink 150 bucks on a combat patrol

from your mentioning of simple fast aggressive big numbers you'd probably like world eaters or black templars or emperor's children or orks

>>96066296
You should play orks

>>96065292 2/2
>Tell me about yourdudes, the got a unique name and color scheme or are they an existing army with your own spin on it?

>>96066311 Continued:
Last but not least, my Dark Eldar are a bunch of speed drunk pirates who are determined find the fastest beings in the galaxy and race, defeat and torture them. A pretty fun Kabal of pretty cool dudes.

>>96066282
>pet allosaurus
And that makes it 4

Could, not that I would, but I could

How does hh work? I thought it was just the old FOC and points.

>>96065292
Colour scheme: white, balthsar gold, baal red, plus all the rust, corrosion, oil and shit I can bathe them in. Still in progress.

The Festering Basement is a depraved offshoot of the 7th Plague Company, once assigned to a forgotten agriworld to spread Nurgle’s bounties. Their original mission was to corrupt grain silos and rot all tendies supplies, but the unit (led by a particularly reclusive and malformed maggot captain named Gloxximus the Glued) got distracted.

You see, the planet had a strong ecclesiastical presence, and broadcasts from the local Adepta Sororitas convent often dominated the voxnet. Hymns, educational sermons and training holovids. HoloChapel Diaries: The Penance Logs. Battle Nun Idol! or Order of the Blushing Rose terranimation. Gloxximus became enamoured.

From their bunkers and basements, he and his warband began watching and collecting footage. Every image of a sisters' resolute glare, every sight of their glutes, every divine ASMR voice clip, it made their bloated, decaying kokoros go doki doki. Aishiteru... Canoness-tan...

What began as sick fascination evolved into twisted devotion. The Festering Basement believes the Sisters of Battle are sacred, divine creatures - but in the most warped incel way possible. They see them not as enemies, but as idealized brides, fiery, pure onee-chans who would “understand” them if only they knew how lonely and devoted these basement boils are. They do not seek to kill sisters. No, no. That would be a waste. Instead, they desire to capture and "convert" them through prolonged exposure to Nurgle's blessings and feeding them pusmilk. Only then can the sisters become happy little plaguebrides. By the way, elf is fine too and a sisterbride with six boobs would be extra blessed and milky.

They are the perverts of pestilence that just want to blight and chill with the 3Ds that are properly PD. The waifu hunters of the Warp.

Tried a lightbox bought online.
It sucks ass. The best pic is pic rel but only because I put the box sideways so the light comes from the front of the mini. But then I'd just have a hole to take a pic from. Maybe I'll buy a led light to put it in front of the box.
Anyway, enjoy my Sword Brethren squad. Half of them will be for the july collage.

>>96065814
I tried kintsugi armor on Marines once. It looked like a shitty attempt at marble pattern.
To make it look right I think you'd need to scribe the lines first and create actual depth like real cracks

>>96066328
Why would those be painful as first armies? Are they expensive? Hard to play? Hard to paint?

You get to enter the Warp for one reason: To permamently injure, mentally, emotionally, or physically, a Chaos God. How do you do it, and to who? Know that immediately after you've done this, your will is ripped apart and the shreds fed into the Soul Raping Machine for all eternity.

>>96066351
Fridge

>>96066443
Nah my fridge's light is yellow ish. Also I wont empty it and risk the food because I want to spend an hour austistixally pose my squad.

>>96066389
those three are all of the above, admech is notoriously expensive, GSC as well but not quite so bad, dark eldar are somewhat expensive but a lot of their units aren't even available for sale anymore so you have to buy proxies or secondhand so that can drive prices up, and all three of them are high model count armies that are very full of details, and their playstyles are trickier and don't perform as well as other armies even in the hands of experienced players

don't let that discount those factions if you want to try them out but definitely do as I suggested and buy a basic infantry with them and build/paint those if any of those are your choice before you go full into the deep end on them

Xenoggers seething.

>>96066389
Drukhari: lot of pointy bits. Some kits are not available, resin only... hope you like kitbashing if you want grotesques. They rely on vehicles. Expensive. You need a lot of them, so if you want to immigrate to the Dark City, do so now and grab three combat patrols, while we still have our combat patrol with ravager and raider (or two raiders, if you already maxed your ravagers).

Good thing is: if you like kitbashing, this army has ton of spare bits and pieces. From box of venom, ravager, raider, you can get nice spare kabalite warriors. From Talos kit you can get enough spare parts to use on your grotesque kitbashes. The wyches, kabalites, reavers, hellions, all same size, so you can play with arms, heads... The models are sleek, edgy in the right way.

I do think it's very funny how GW continually sidelines Tyranids in an Edition made to push them as the main big bad.

>>96066688
It took Abby 13 blacked crusades to blow up malaysia, nids are only at their, what, 4th tyrannic war?
Give them another ten thousand years and they'll blow up some important planet too, give it time

>>96065863
The D-canon was very good and the vibro canon and shadow weaver were not, so you had a situation were two guns that people already weren't taking kept going up in points because of the D-canon. You cannot tell me this is not the primary reason that we have 3 separate stat blocks adding bloat to the codex. All because they can't make different guns in one unit cost differently.

>>96066688
Tyranids will get a big lorry update in 11th. Just like Necrons largely had to wait until 10th to get anything meaningful happen to them after being in the 9E starter box.
GW want to dribble out the lore in the Crusade supplements that no one reads, and then they summarise it all for everyone to catch-up on when the next edition rolls around.

>>96066723
I'm sure no other unit has ever had an objectively best war gear option that they didn't bother to split the data sheets for. No sir. Not a one.

>>96066741
Which is why there are numerous weapons profiles that will never get used, because they know they can't make a separate unit for every infantry squad gun. They shot themselves in the foot.

>What the fuck is Tiamets problem?
Their entire backstory was a one line throwaway to pad space in a codex, and GW never had any idea of what thet were actually doing, nor any plan to continue that story.
It's just one of those dangling threads for fans to pull on if they want to write their own headcanon/yourdudes lore.

>>96067017
It's kind of weird that all four of the divergent space marine chapters have a melee-focused theme to them

>>96067023
Dark Angels shower daily because they spend all their free time in bath houses.

>>96067084
because melee is cooler than ranged
especially in a setting where the ranged is really advanced

/mydude/ unrecognized Salamander successors from the 13th founding, named Coal Hearts.

Colour scheme is emerald green armour with gold trim. Right leg, arm, and left shoulder pad are red. The green represents their exiled ancestors, the red their ties to the Admech, and the gold the light of the Emperor. The boots of their power armour are also gold to represent bringing His light wherever they go. They don’t use codex rank or role markings, instead relying on built in IFF and heated grids on their armour that create glyphs only someone who can see in infrared can read.

Imagine if the Iron Hands were as religious as the Black Templars but still kept ties to their lost humanity like the Sally’s. Pretty much their vibe. Augmetics, faith, and fire. One day I’ll do up one of those charts with the colours filled in.

So what's this about mass squattings in HH?

>>96065292
Ballad Crusade, these guys here >>96066351 Black Templars errant crusade force that does Black Templars stuff. But also writes their individual achievements as ballads on their tabards. Once a tabard is full they'll place it on their main crusade flagship as a continuing tapestry that can be read so neophytes and veterans alike can find inspiration from past deeds.
That means they need to learn how to write good stories and decorate their writings with drawings. Once a tabard is full they take a blank one and start over.
They are also curteous and gallant to devout servants of the God Emperor, and heavily look down on "peasants". That said they fight tooth and nail to fervently protect said peasants, rspecially against hetetics and xenos.
Because they're still knights, dammit!

>>96067400
HH used to have a ton of units and options that didn't have dedicated model kits. You were encouraged to convert models to represent those units and options, and you had a ton of freedom to create your own leader with bespoke gear

The new edition drops a ton of that stuff, bringing it much closer to 40k style "you can only run what we sell kits for and only have the options that are in that kit"

So experienced players who have been building their army since the first edition just found out the units and characters they put the most effort into aren't in the game anymore.

>>96065292
>Malakim's Ante were a small strike team of Lamenters, sent off to the far reaches of the galaxy to reclaim lost wargear in hopes of bolstering the diminished armory of the chapter. While searching the edge of the Ghoul Star's they received a call from Baal claiming a massive Tyranid hivefleet was approaching the homeworld of the Blood Angels and that their assistance was required to help fend off the assault. Upon setting off through the warp for Baal they encountered a massive warp storm and became stranded for what felt like 100 days. Unbeknownst to them, this was the machinations set forth by the great Khorne Daemon Prince Cha'gath Akz'Hur, who continually cast teeming hordes of daemonic entities upon the castaway marines. During their time spent within the space between realities, a large portion of their forces became stricken with the curse carried by their progenitors, known as the Red Thirst and Black Rage. Large portions of the strike team were lost to the infighting, and those that survived carried with them a great shame left from delivering the Emperors Peace to their former brethren. Those that carried the burden of felling the most of their kin became known as The Benevolent, and began to paint their armour in colours of mourning, as a means of recognizing the great sin they had committed. Eventually the warp entity seemed to grow tired of toying with the marines and spat them out into the orbit of Baal where they could witness the true destruction that befell the once great homeworld. Stricken with the grief of losing their brothers, the shame of failing to aid the Blood Angels in time, they set out on the galaxy with a new quest. One of hatred. One of revenge. To seek out the dark forces that tore their family asunder, they now patrol the edge of the Great Rift stalking whatever occult evils that unfortunately find themselves in their path.
They're themed around playing cards and I've got a different scheme for each of the suits.

>>96067732
Why not get rid of that ratty old thing and replace it with sexy new modern DE lore like Lelith: Queen of Knives?

>>96067812
The new lore is dogshit at best. GW has lost the people who loved the hobby for the hobby, the creative nerds and (sometimes) inspired writers. Now they sell things written under decree and direction of marketers and focus groups. As such I will not buy any of the new trash or respect it as canon.

Furthermore, the things I purchased with my own money or that were gifted to me are mine and mine alone. I will loan books, games and miniatures to trusted friends able to respectfully take care of them but will otherwise not get rid of any of my collection of anything I own. Anyone who tries to remove something from my collection has explicitly indicated they value my possessions over their bodily well-being or life. Simple as.

Fellas, Ive asked this in a /co/ thread but I feel like I'll get a better answer here.

Would it not be more efficient for Tyranids to use bio milking machines to extract semen from males, than to use women as living seed beds?
See, there was an excerpt from a book (I think) where a charecter discovers women used as wombs for tyranids. And that got me thinking: there are over a hundred thousand eggs in a womans ovaries yes. But there are MILLIONS of sperm inside the average male. So, if Tyranids wanted to make millions of Tyranid human hybrids, they'd logically use bio milkers rather than ovipositors.

I hope im making sense here. Just so we're clear, I get it, its hot. I just dont think its in charecter for the Tyranids

99% sure. Unless the anon was bullshitting. Heres the Exercpt that inspired my question

>"More than half of the women were fixed to the strange organic walls of the chamber by a mix of chitin plates and thick strands of a sticky substance like some kind of tough mucus. The others were half enclosed in equally disgusting organic mounds dotted about the cavern floor. Pools of pungent yellow-brown liquid bubbled and steamed near them. Ropes of semi-translucent flesh fed or withdrew fluids from their bodies, snaking into their noses and mouths. Gratefully, Karras saw that the women's lower bodies were fully encased, though their grossly distended bellies were exposed to the hot, humid air. He had no doubt there were similar organic catheters beneath the chitin, responsible for Throne-knew-what. Those bellies were so stretched by the xeno organisms growing within that the skin had become as translucent as the looping coils of strange umbilici. In some, the Death Spectre could see jostling clusters of embryonic aliens vying with each other for the most comfortable positions. zthe women playing host to these slithering forms wept and whimpered in an agony that pierced their mindless-stupor."

/mydudes/ are the Howling Wind, pretty orthodox White Scars successors who are charged with protecting one of the few trade routes left through the Great Rift, now more of a bubble of real space in the middle of the Rift than a true path through.

The chapter is named after their founder, a sanctioned legionary who was thought disposable and was one of the first primaris candidates, but who survived the odds anyway.

It turns out he was sanctioned for good reasons and when given a cohort of new marines to protect the sub-sector, he immediately named them after himself and proceeded to take tithe from every trade ship inspected.
He has supposedly refused to even read the Codex Astartes, though the greatest deviation from the Codex is that the chapter is organized in three hordes/battalions that then break up into even smaller groups to cover as wide an area as possible.

Recruits are from the trade worlds themselves, and they claim no permanent home world. The chapter is fleet based with no known battle barges and only a few strike cruisers, with most of the fleet's tonnage being independently operated escort vessels.

tldr They're American bikers led by a Mongol charged with protecting the (space) Silk Road, and are "dirtier" than usual White Scars but are otherwise pretty close in culture. Think Crimson Fists to Imperial Fists.

She's something called a "Norn Tyrant". She was a norn queen whos hive ship got boarded by a custodes and his band of merry men. Before they obliterated her bitch ass, she escaped and attached herself to the body of a specced out hive tyrant. Kinda like a dominatrix.
Her army has a lot of hive beasts in it: So like a Norn emissary, Carnifexes, Mawlocs, and stuff.

>>96068179
Yeah, with not one but two loyalist primarchs back, they thought the grimdark was over and the Imperium would start winning important things again.

>>96068177
Also they have white helmets as standard, with veteran status being denoted with a black stripe.

Their color scheme being oddly close to certain Sagyar Mazan cohorts from the heresy is pure coincidence. Yep. Totally.

I'm rolling around some concepts in my mind for /mydudes/

The Order of Redeeming Pain is built on the idea that the opening of Cicitrix Maledictum was the result of mankind's sins, and only through repentant suffering can humanity redeem itself and see the galaxy healed. Like all Imperial forces, this newly founded Order was stretched thin by demands for help by human worlds under attack. But the Sisters swore that they wouldn't merely save the people, they would save their souls.
For the Order of Redeeming Pain, victory in battle is only the first step. The sins of the people must be purged, starting at the top. The planetary leaders, and sometimes even high guard officers if their regiments were found wanting in battle, are invited to a secret council with the abbess. This simple trick sees them walk into the Order's Pain Dungeons. There the Sisters visit pain upon them beyond imaging. The methods are a strict secret, but they are always successful.
After emerging from the Pain Dungeons, those men and women are lit by a fiery commitment to the Order's cause. They will lead their people in mass self flagellation ceremonies. Those who resist are dealt with, and those who survive the ordeal begin to seek out those who ran or hid, to force them to expunge their own sins through agony.
As the Order's ships take off to save the next disobedient world, their ships are filled with converts who desire nothing more than to experience that divine pain again, and offer themselves freely to be installed in Penitence Engines, which the Order has in abundance. Some even offer themselves to become Arco-Flagellants, although the cyborgs fielded by the Order seem different in some way from those seen in other Orders

>>96065292
There's fortunately not much fluff on the chapter (only one company detailed doing stuff), so I get some leeway with my guys.
Strikeforce Alepis generally accompanies an Astra Militarum regiment trying to neutralize Insurrections on the Eastern Fringe near the Rift Corridor (Chaos/GSC/general rebellions). Following the trail of Ymgarl genestalkers, they are currently stationed in a system adjascent to the Tiamet system, dismantling a Genestealer incursion and offering heavy weapons support to the Deathguard who are investigating Hive Fleet Tiamet.

>TQ
I don't care anymore. I'll be painting more models

>>96064944 (OP)
Kind of ties into the TQ, but is it just me or did the Lion drop and just get kinda...forgotten?

There was some hype around the time of his announcement and when he first came out, but then it's just been radio silence from both GW and the playerbase.
Guilliman has had tons of discussion, fan art and other relevance that still continues to this day. I have to remember the Lion actually exists in 40k.

>>96068253
They released him for some easy marinefag money, that's about it

>>96067938
This seems more like a GSC question than a Nid one.

Nids would just eat you since your body would have much more biomass than farming humans (especially since you'd need to feed them biomass to get biological products out)

GSC you might be able to argue that a normal male+modified mother would be able to carry a mutant/modified fetus to term, while a modified male+normal mother would pose a risk of development complications like immune system rejection. Or something. I don't really focus on the biology stuff bigger than cells.

Trade into them with cheaper stuff that kills them as effectively as they kill you and don't leave them anywhere to retreat to. Lure them out with cheap bait on a point that they have to commit something bigger to remove.

How did (you) decide how to base your armies? So far I've just done different flavors of wasteland with real dirt and it's really meh.

Will soaking Resin in alcohol for an hour be too much to remove primer? The last guy who had this model seems to have primed it when it was raining out with how sandy it is, I got a surprising amount off with just a make up brush.

>>96069065

you need a second layer of dirt and also you need to place the mini first. makes it look more heavy and sunk in the terrain.

>>96068253
Yes, one of the problems with reintroducing Primarchs to 40k. Either you make them the obnoxious main character for a whole edition and radically change the setting, like Guilliman, or you do what they did with the Lion where he just banishes Angron (welcome to the club) and totally fails to live up to the ridiculous hype.

The end of edition event will be Khan and Yriel fighting Fulgrim and Vashtorr.

>>96069065
>How did (you) decide how to base your armies?

If it means getting bikes that don’t fucking suck ass to assemble then cool. I don’t really care for vaginataur though.

>>96069155
I feel like the issue is simply just supporting material. Gulliman had a dedicated trilogy to him saving Ultramar and a series about the Indomitus Crusade. Him being known to the wider Imperium also means he shows up in a lot of stuff. The Lion has a single book. It’s like they didn’t plan for anything besides the dollar signs.

I didn't want to do brown or grey like you frequently see and wanted something in a colour not often present on my models so they really pop. I wanted a chunkier mix so I mix my own pastes using tile grout, flexible modeling paste, and mixed aragonite sand for saltwater aquariums. I wanted my rocks to look super sharp and jagged so I use torn up raw cork bark. I also wanted some way to fill large areas of negative space on the base so I did some little craters with water effects.

>>96069358
>only way I see them coming back is as a kill team with a couple extra members
Why? Killteams arent even a full 10 units anymore. They're slowly reaching the point where GW might try and get you to buy a 5man for $90.

>>96069367
while thats possible I would imagine they'd either double up on a few or maybe even add some new random aliens in, its a perfect unit to do so if the sculpting team wants to do something new
or they add a reworked beastmaster in perhaps

>>96065631
Build whatever fits the theme of your army. As you expand, get more kits that fit your theme.
I will say though that in general, it's a good idea to make sure your army isn't especially lacking in one area. Get a tank, get some anti-tank, and 1-2 strong infantry units with lots of staying power. Keep it well-rounded.
I also really enjoy the heretic-purging side of Sisters of Battle, love those flagellants. You did good anon

I need some advice. I am new. Never played, never collected. Which army should I go for and which set should I get? Which one is easier to play and paint? I'm leaning Space Wolves but it's like 60/40.

>>96069443
wolves easily.

>>96069443
Space Wolves is easier to paint and has way more options for expanding the army. Go wolf

>>96069443
Space Wolves because they're Marines and get all the cool stuff but dont be a retard and buy an entire box of shit that you might not even enjoy building or painting

>>96069443
wolves are easier to paint, have way more options to add to your army, and are way cooler than the gay marines

>>96069443
Get whatever army you think looks more fun to paint

>>96067410
lazy day but got their tabards basecoated and pelts painted in

For all the bitching over canonizing female astartes, did they ever even make female astartes models?

>>96068049
The Tau Drones have vibrators and robot mouths for battlefield stress relief, Servo-skulls lack jaws because Admech kept on falling to Slaanesh and using them in unsanctioned ways, why don't their Men of Iron have anuses at minimum?

That's the far worse crime than the murders. FF was in a downward spiral, T8 destroys itself way worse than Clive alone. But to exhume and rape DMC isn't something DMC would do on its own.

>>96069680
Weird self report but okay

last night ultramarines attempted to bait out the loxosceles remnants in a decisive engagement .
1000 points. We played this neat scenario in the middle of a warp storm which made all deep strikes downgraded to strat reserves. Unless you completed a shoot signal flair action- in which case you could deepstrike near the unit which completed it.
And every unit had infiltrators, but demons spawned around the portal in the middle.

The ultramarines did succeed in bringing loxosceles to battle, but loxosceles struck the marines as they fought several fried synapse nids(demons) which were thrown out of the warp , disorientated and feral.
What followed was a dark day for the chapter.

Loxosceles victory: 1 req spent to use 3 agendas. 3/3 agendas achieved
Destroy up to 5 marked units in melee - 3/5
Kill general - achieved
Devour all biomass - achieved.

Here’s deployment. Demons surged into a ripper and the big plasma primaris squad with attached liuetenant.
Then first turn went to Nids

>>96069624

Next Friday we'll get to see them.

>>96069714
What are the best coomer custodes minis?

>>96069703
This was an armageddon crusade game.

My list: underground assault.
Deathleaper(reroll first turn dice)
Ooe(+1t to his squad)
Trygon prime (general)
Neurotyrant

Biovore
2 fex (+1 to hit on charge)
6 zoanthropes
1 ripper
Is underground assault busted? It feels weird being able to kill shit as Nids this edition instead of boringly playing on objectives.
I made one tunnel which the carnifexes(who I’d sucked into strat reserve) jumped out of with a rerollable charge at 6.
I tabled my opponent and the demons turn 3.

>>96069718

Terminators managed to scratch a fex up before the end.

>>96069689
It takes far less time to edit in a single (You) or to use mobile than to remove my many self-reply (You)s from my angle, mr.phoneposter.

>>96069724
The zoans with neurotyrant in particular hitting on 2+s rerolling ones was messed up.
With their 4++ they were incredibly oppressive, shrugging off one round of sternguard veteran fire and a ballistus dreadnought.

>>96069718
The recent rules releases have been pretty strong. Doesn’t feel like a “please buy these models,” thing either since it’s Tyranids and they’re popular for a xenos faction.

This was a troll post that people claimed was in the 40k kids books. Its from anons not GW.

>>96069624
But I did many times.

>>96069735
I know my opponent overcommitted to the fuck with his stern guard and plasma primaris, but seriously I only lost one ripper, he was rightfully disheartened . He was on top of his strats too.

Here’s his list
Ironstorm
Techmarine
Lieutenant
Terminator librarian

5x interscessors
5x plasma primaris
5x stern guard
5x terminators

1 ballistus dread
1 light floating las cannon tank

So recent codex confirms Eldar are complete sissies who have feminity aspect, but utterly lacks masculinity aspect.

Who cares

>>96069768
Need door breakers to win with marines.

Either by goading charges with a land raider and charging mean characters on the flanks for minimal return combat.

Or hammer 2+ dreads that pins weak shit.

Have a load of primaris that vomits dice. Intercessors can roll 110 dice in one game turn. (40 shots, overwatch 40 shots, 30 melee attacks, add in leader of your flavor)

He's just looking to troll. Completely ignoring the 8 other male gods on that page, not the least of which is the trinity of Asuryan, Vaul, and Khaine depicting aspects associated with masculinity.
Even in his image, it shows Kurnous the hunter, another masculine trait. With Hoec the wanderer and Cegorach the laughing GOD.
In short, he's just a faggot trying to stir shit.

Wow that looks like an awesome setup, id love to have a go!

>>96069840
In my 3rd edition and 4th edition path line thinking; facing off against monster heavy stuff needs to be blocked and using terrain to stand for you. He needs to plan where they CAN'T go. But would like to go.

It sucks if you have a bunch of bladeguard and there's a judicar in the unit standing behind a building wall that can only be charged. Fights first.

Lots of tricks.

Why don't people use lacquers for wargame mini's? It's odd to me that despite model/garage kit's and miniatures sharing a similar niche when it comes to hobbying stuff I've never seen anyone on the miniature side using alot of the stuff the others do and vice versa. I've only seen one dude use acrylics like vallejo on model kits and outside the mr hobby primer that I've seen some warhammer guys use no one touches shit used for garage kits. It doesn't matter much but it's always striked me as a bit weird.

>>96069838
> AI sloppa

>>96069840
I haven’t played enough games to comment too much, but maybe suggest a Redemptor Dread somewhere too. From my understanding, the Redemptor Dread is in a weird place points-wise specifically because its defensive profile plus a Techmarine (which he seems to like) can be pretty strong if the points values let it neatly fit into lists.

>>96069890
Looks amazing dude, love your jobs

>>96069890
Is this inspired by the Alien 3 game for nes by any chance? Similar colour scheme between the bugs and tufts

>>96069903
Lacquers stink like nothing else, are pretty toxic, and require a proper spray booth setup. The majority of warhammer hobbyists don't even have an airbrush let alone have both an airbrush and a proper ventilation setup.

>>96069931
Nah, It was one of the colour schemes in the 3rd edition nid codex, I had an army of them painted in this same scheme like 20 years ago, thought it'd be fun to redo a very old project

That stuff is just super annoying to work with, and at this point, most scale modellers also use acrylics.

Model fatigue and 87degree (indoor) work days is getting to me. Intermission on models required. I'm sitting at night time 76 degree room temp and I haven't cooled off yet.

In hindsight I should've grabbed this ice pack earlier.

I may have convinced myself to start on the terminators first instead of the tyranids.

I'll be doing a black dark angels successor for Terminators, and a young chapter of who-knows-what for the marines I'll be converting into other stuff. That's still high in the air for the marines.

Terminators will be getting:
Shields, Thunder Hammers, Cyclone Launchers. Storm bolters from captains replacing the assault cannons, not sure if I'll magnetize the option. Assault cannon is lethargic compared to what a cyclone+SB can do.

I'll have enough for 55 terminators and two leaders for 2k. Leaving 15 left over to become thunder hammer terminators, or other leaders if I pick some.

I like Librarians.

I may convert helmets to be power-shield orbs. Not a fan of the helmets on the terminators looking more sunken into the armor on modern terminators.

>>96065292
They're the O'tau'ais sept. a 4th sphere sept that got cut off in the warp from the rest of the 4th sphere fleet and got ejected randomly on the opposite side of the galaxy. In the warp translation they lost most of their advanced battlesuits in the desperate battle for the ships. so they lack advanced supplies and materials of other septs. Instead their mothballed vehicles remained intact and are easier to assemble with local materials.

They landed on a planet that is its post glacial aphelion around a massive super giant star. A star so massive and huge that its planets take millennia to orbit. Its also so massive of a system there are dozens if not hundreds of planets and even more moons. Their sept planet is mostly forest and swamps that have sprouted since the glaciers retreated making it difficult to navigate meaning hovering vehicles even more important for defense. The army relies on vehicle heavy movements to strike from afar and melt away using mobility to stay at stand off engagements, with light mounted infantry and crisis suits used to defend the armored elements.

They launch raids on the surrounding planets and moons often visiting archeotech ruins or even inhabited portions of the system in order to get essential resources needed to grow their quickly growing sept. Their commander is Commander Godwind, who is a cold star pilot who prefers to enter battle from a low orbital insertion. Their raids are characterized by 2-3 mantas deorbiting at extremely high speeds, with Godwind leading them from the front in his coldstar battlesuit, They go in guns blazing and launching massive seeker barrages to clear a landing zone while launching all vehicles and battlesuits from high altitude to do a quick insertion. These ground forces then mop up any surrounding forces, once the engagement area is clear the mantas land and load up their cargo holds with as much cargo as possible while retrieving the landing forces and leaving.

Now that’s just nasty

You know how wasps are paraistic and lay their eggs inside other creatures. They hatch and eat all the non vital organs to keep the host alive until they are ready to emerge from the body, sometimes they survive that as well and guard the wasp larvae. I think it would be cool if chaos geneseed was engineered/mutated to do the same. Plant it inside a victim and it spread and grows like a cancer to make more of itself. Then they emerge from the body to be harvested and put inside CSM candidates.
Just something creepy and weird but has roots in the natural world so its not to 'out there' you know?

I do have a squad of gue'vesa, They're recruits from the local planets.
But they're usually given the role of a breacher team and sent in first. As its only natural to use humans in close combat roles due to their superior aptitude and affinity for melee combat. The fact that these are the units with the highest casualties just shows how devoted these recruits are to the greater good.

>Killteams arent even a full 10 units anymore.

Since when is this? From the very start there was a distinction between elite and horde teams.

Hivestorm had 10 minis in each team
Brutal and Cunning had 6 (+2 pets) vs 10 (+1 pet)
Blood and Zeal had 10 (+1 pet) vs 8 (with 8 being Khornes magical number)
Typhon had 10 vs 6 again, with an extra sprue of Nids on top.

So where do you get the notion from that there is a trend away from full 10-man Killteams?

>>96070683

>>96070724
>say something nice
this really makes me want to say something mean actually

>>96070698
typhon nids is going to be 6 when they get their own separate release. Negrons were also 8. You can make an argument that they're becoming more "elite", point still stands the boxes have teased with the idea of shrinkflation. Hell some of them arent even really a complete team (well, optimal I guess) unless you buy a second kit as well.

>>96070724
Do you have a favorite model youve painted? I'd like to add you to the fridge

I generally don't like bases that tall, but in this case it makes it look proper because the kriegers now are at the level of the trenchwork

Yeah it's:

>basecoat AK smoke black
>dunk in TTC oblivion black wash
>drybrush TTC shadow blue
>drybrush thunderhawk blue (the old dry mixture you can't buy anymore, not sure it makes a difference)
>satin varnish when everything else is done
Previously I was mixing black and grey paints but it was too inconsistent. I wasn't doing the wash either

>>96070734
>Hell some of them arent even really a complete team (well, optimal I guess) unless you buy a second kit as well.

Again, this has been the case since the very first release with Octarius, in which you need a 2nd set of Kriegers to field the full 14 of them that are possible.
There always have been teams with 10 guys, and there were always the elite teams with less than 10. There is no indication whatsoever that in the future they wont have teams with 10 guys any more.

>>96070734
>Negrons were also 8.

And they fought against Kasrkin in their box, a team of 10.
Also from the Gallowdark season we had 10 Dwarfs vs 10 Beastmen, 10 Dark Eldar vs 10 Space Cops and 10 Kroot vs 10 Breachers.
We had 10 Mandrakes vs 8 Nightlords, we had 10 Skorpions vs 10 Scouts and we had 10+ optional characters for Brood Brothers vs 10 Dwarfs.

>>96070779
Looks way nicer imo.

Really wish we just got a single dialogue of demons, I want to know how they think, how they would speak.Their character, all that jazz. Its more interesting than being told an anal ysis of an incident.

Why is GK stationary watermarked with the Ecclesiarchy ][?

>>96070859
You realize there is a whole (black) library of books in which demons also happen to appear?

>>96070864
Because they're a chamber of the Inquisition?

>>96070894
And when was the last book that had them fleshed out?

>>96064997
yeah id be ok with that, then we can all go back to 3rd... or play HH

>>96070907
>Because they're a chamber of the Inquisition?
I repeat my question.

Why is their stationary watermarked with the ECCLESIARCHY symbol?

Please read this question again. I have placed empathise on a particular word that you seem to have missed the first time around.

>>96070911
Whenever the latest HH book was released.

>>96070939
Clearly those reports were written in universe by the Ecclesiarchy?

>>96070859
Play the Rogue Trader crpg

Ah yes. Corrupted marines are now demons.

Mine aren't as cool as yours. But this is Chaplain Chromius, leader of the Chromius Crusade which brought much honour to the Black Templars after persecuting a successful campaign on the planet of Hartley's Gym during the Charadon war, against the nefarious local despot (and only chaos player in our group) known as "Ben". Many beers were drunk and good times had.

>>96070859
We got Vashtorr and Belakor chatting to each other during Arks of Omen

>>96070991
I dunno, ask /hhg/

>>96069703
Oh almost forgot, edited up a simple campaign tracker to represent the armageddon crusade with the lot of us. I'll just expand it at each stage's conclusion (of which there are 6, 6 games played by each alliance per stage) . should end with a painted map and everyone happy.

>>96070740
And you missed my point anon.

You aren't slick, GW.
Also in general extremely boring and uninspired design.
Even the Deathbringer looks cooler, and that fucker is genuinely just Grim Reaper made into a model.

>>96069624
wow, almost like it's some sort of copypasta...

>>96071165
I would totally buy the tinfoil hat theory that those three Ynnari models were a quick reshuffle of existing assets from stuff originally designed for other Eldar lines.

>>96071165
I don't know how true this is but I remember back when AoS first dropped people were saying that Slaanesh was getting removed from the setting, the Yinnari stuff in 40k was going to move in that direction to

>>96070643
Black Library was a fucking mistake. "Oh boy, time to write a silly novel about Orks! Oh, by the way, Eldar have sex change operations because I said so."

>>96071201
Of all the races in 40k, the immortal psychic schizos who changes personalities when they take new jobs having sex changes is the least surprising for me.
Doubly so for Deldar with their homonculus hellraiser on steroids thing.

>>96071201
Nobody is actually upset about this. It's fucking Drukhari, mate. People were more up in arms about the change to the wraithbone lore (they weren't actually upset about that one either).

>>96071214
Wraithbone lore was in the codex. I guarantee if the notion that males that want to become Howling Banshees have to physically transition was also in a codex, there would have been more backlash.

>>96071233
You are making assumptions and reading something into that passage that is not written there based on what's in your own mind.

>>96071251
Not really. It explicitly says the character only took on the female form when he/she/they became a succubus and that Howling Banshees operate in "the same way." Pretty cut and dry.

>>96071251
anti tranny cope is so pathetic. just complain about DEI honestly like a proper chud.

And because I repainted over a model I had lying around from when I first started the hobby. Back when reusing sprue as basing “bricks” seemed like a good idea.

>>96070945
they cant as all knowledge of chaos is suppressed by the Inquisition.

Am I too late to complain about the resin krieg being replaced with this shite?
