What New Imperium army do you hope for?

Does traitor guard count? Otherwise I want them to squat knights, grey knights, custodes, maybe half of space marines, maybe 1/3 of IG, maybe all of agents, maybe another 1/3 of space marines, then replace admech with a range that doesnt attract femboys.

Here ya go frens. Hope one of you enjoys.

I'm going to play in an Armageddon Crusade
Looking into the Crusade rules there's some serious power creep. Older factions have jack all in their control of what they can get. Custodes just roll on a chart for their extra win condition, then roll on a chart to see what extra rewards they get. Meanwhile the Codexes released this year have so much control in their options. Emp Children have full control on what drugs they make and have methods to gain ingredients to make sure they get what they want, 1k sons a billion options and paths while Chaos Knights have have full control on their level of influence from dark gods, their house hold and their vassals.

>>96379360
There's power creep in every ruleset gw has ever made

>>96379328 (OP)
so
edge highlighting slop or dry brush kino?

New Imperium army?

No, I want 3 whole Imperium armies removed.

Imperial Agents isn't one of them.

>>96379368
Both are different tools that are good at different things. You'd have a hard time getting controlled/neat highlights on tiny details via drybrushing and would have to work to highlight very large panels only via edge highlights in a natural way

>>96379371
blood angles

blood ravens

Agreed. Blood Angels should be removed after their awful update

Oh no...

my deldar combat patrol's getting here sameday and I haven't even started thinking of a scheme
my other finished armies already have predominantly white, orange, black, maroon, brass and camo green so I don't want to heavily feature any of those

I need suggestions on where to start for a new one for them

We can just have an adeptus air(whatever they call them) army now. Just do it.

>>96379453
Aircraft in 40k have never been fun.

>>96379455
Neither is facing titans or tank armies.

when do you guys like working on the base? im just doing a bit of armageddon dust so nothing fancy just cant decide whether to do it now before priming or later after the mini itself is done.

>>96379465
I always do my bases last, but I like to stick my rocks down with superglue before priming

>>96379465
I always forget the base until last because im a dingus.

>>96379455
Agreed. They need to be smaller.

>>96379456
Titans suck because it's just a handful of big robots that barely move.
Tanks in older editions of apocalypse were fine because the armour rules made flanking and positioning a thing.

>>96379328 (OP)
for me its the mantis warriors

I don't care what anyone says. I don't care about Reddit faggots trying to poz them. I love them.

>>96379444
better than femstodes for sure

Is it plausible a chaos legion/brigade of sorts could find an old stash of older marks of marine armors and weapons and build a larger marine force from it?

>>96379509
I don't see why it wouldn't be

>>96379509
For sure. But you can bet the warpsmiths would be fucking with it immediately

Now that the Horus Heresy plastic reboot has been out for a bit, what's the general consensus on using units from that setting in 40K? Too masturbatory?

>>96379395
Eldar sold so well that GW discarded them from all events, including war for control over Webway, novels and video games and biggest lore update they recieved was reducing their technological level below Imperial Guard.

>>96379513
>>96379514
Just more justification of making an old mk2 army of chaos. since the marines are almost half price over the other choices.

>>96379521
stop getting your information from xitter tourist

>>96379519
>units
What like datasheets? Probably. Using the models is just fine though. A lot of people are using HH marines for 40k Iron Warriors.

>>96379523
if you're not converting them to be spiky and covered in trim fuck off

>>96379519
I think they look better when you mix them into the 40k line stuff but I don't think many people would complain if you liked the 30k stuff better and had everything painted

>>96379524
Ok well then YOU explain why GW has done fuck all for eldar in the past 9 months, genius.

>>96379530
Modern CSM aren't that spiky.
>also fuck off aggression-poster that ruins every thread

>>96379523
If you're not adding spikes or whatever to make them look proper "chaos-y" then probably just fluff them up as renegade or something rather than full blown chaos dudes

>>96379519
>Too masturbatory?
not masturbatory enough i say

>>96379540
they've done fuckall with anything in the last 9 months retard

>>96379524
xitter is more reliable source than eldarfags whinning

>>96379542
they're infinitely spikier than the boring nu-firstborn

>>96379519
For marines it's literally a non-issue as long as you mix the armor marks up so you're not fielding groups of uniform mark 4s or whatever.

>>96379542
I really wish they ditched the helmets even if they look better with them than firstborn.

>>96379545
Raven Guard got a dope new sculpt announced for their new chapter master. Go be a retard somewhere else.

>>96379504
>loses to a girl
kwab

>>96379543
If I went with my idea I would be buying the aftermarket sellers that push them for about 2.5 dollars/marine and go full in on about 200 marines to convert them to everything.

I can make melee weapon dudes with the bayonets and chainbayonets they come with as Mk2's. Just a simple metal pole and glue them on for axes and spears. The pistols would be the tricky part.

Genestealers would be so much cooler if they weren't just cheerleaders for tyranids and were their own thing

Replace tyranids with space marines and that statement works for any imperium faction.

>>96379725
Isn/t there some cult which managed to free itself from Hivemind control and basically became Weyland-Yutani of 40k?

I'm sure there's some one-off thing like that in some book somewhere but I meant moreso that it would be a lot better if they were their own unique alien race. Tyranids are fucking tyranids they don't need dedicated seatwarmers when they can eat the whole planet regardless

I always thought it would be neat to run genestealer cults, but kitbash them into beastmen. Just a bunch of pickaxe wielding abhuman workers rising up after generations of mistreatment. I don't really like the look of most of the genestealer cults line, barring a few exceptions, but I really love the idea of some poorly-equipped madmen running into battle using mining equipment and pilfered rifles

Yeah, but he isn't an Eldar named character.

>>96379931
All of the phoenix lords are named characters in the setting, they are a gestalt consciousness who exists in one body at a time.

Yeah, but Maugan Ra is Ynnari, just as rest of his Craftworld.

Any good tutorials on making glowing hot gunbarrels?

>>96380057
yes

>>96380057
Whatever you do, don't paint everything glowing hot. The barrels don't heat up evenly and all the extra bits don't heat up the same way as the barrels themselves. It's a personal annoyance of mine when people just paint everything glowing hot like someone stuck the gun barrel first into a furnace.

The Adepta Sororitas deserve Death Cult auxiliary squads.

At least he has a completely reasonable name.

>>96380117

>>96380123
The game was only created to serve as a GW competitor to X-Wing. When X-Wing fell off, GW dropped support for Aeronautica.

>>96380117
You know what ultramarines needed? Another named character. It looks bretty good, though.

>>96379566
I think you underestimate space marine characters.
Each of them is more relevant than your whole faction. And probably will outsell whole eldar, harlequins and dark eldar ranges.

Where do you guys get your dice? Been using some small chessex and they’ve been rubbing. Bought more cause they’re all I can find nearby (the bigger versions this time).

Is Baron of dice worth it? They’re pretty expensive for fucking dice. Yeah I get more dice than I get from GW but it still seems expensive for plastic cubes.

Where can I just buy dice that won’t rub off after a few games?

>>96380197
I still don’t get why it was cancelled

>>96380201
It's Eldar. Why even ask the obvious?

>>96380200
nta, but the bolters start propelling themselves only after leaving the gun, so I doubt they would contribute to that

leaving aside that I don't remember any actual rotary boltgun weapon, I think assault cannons and the like use normal ammunitions

>>96380266
It's obvious that at some point GW was planning to remove Slaanesh from the Chaos pantheon in both of their mainline franchises, are at least demote him to a minor god. The massive backlash to AoS launching and subsequent change in leadership caused them to rethink several things and slow down on making any major shakeups to the status quo in their main golden goose.

>>96380266
to remove slaanesh from the ip

>>96380277
What about the plans for Ynnari?

>>96380271
pls don't report for off topic

>>96380201
Nobody cared about the Ynnari, everyone who was a fan of craftworlds or the drukhari liked their army for what they were and didnt want them being souped together under some random bitch nobody knows with a lame relic collection mission to save the universe.

Also I will never forgive the writers for killing off Drazhar even if he can come back phoenix lord style, having him kill Jain Zar and then be killed by Jain Zar is retarded and ruined his mystique.

>>96380280
Ynnari were their means to that end and the possible replacement for Slaanesh as the fourth chaos god in 40k. Some have speculated they were also pushing towards a "Grand Alliances" sort of team up system in 40k the same way AoS had and we're using Ynnari to lay the groundwork for a lot more "alliances" between factions than 40k usually has. More obviously they were also just going to merge all the Eldar ranges and then walked that back.

>>96380280
Use Ynnari roll all the flavours of Eldar into one single book, scrap any outstanding resin kits and just keep the current plastic kits. Would have solved the dark eldar question for example. There is a theory that the Corsair kill team were supposed to be ynnari soldiers but got changed at the last minute due to ynnari being dropped.

>>96380194
I hope I get to collect them all one day

>>96380289
>There is a theory that the Corsair kill team were supposed to be ynnari soldiers but got changed at the last minute due to ynnari being dropped.
Only retards believe that.

Imperial agents expansion is coming...
I can feel it...
>>96380281
Wifey wife wife
>>96380277
Personally I always subscribed to the idea the Ynncarne is actually a Slaneeshi demon and that once the eldar did gather all the special swords Slaneesh would become relevant again and rise overpowering the other chaos gods with a big range to rival that of DG. Of course this was quickly discarded off my head when I realised we can't have the morally righteous heros lose or be tricked in 40k these days and the whole thing seemed legit enough even if poorly written. I don't think GW would remove any of the chaos gods because they have to keep 40k as stagnant as possible as opposed to AoS/Fantasy where things are always meant to be moving forward and happening. They seemed to try and go to that direction but I myself hated the primarchs coming back or primaris suddenly being revealed so maybe it's for the best we don't get a big narrative arc every campaign where things actually change. Though the great rift and eye of terror are nice and Lion coming back was not nearly as disgusting or bad as Guilliman coming back

They're not black, anon.

Ynnari books established a lot of retarded things, including:
>Eldar and Necrons are actually ancient allies from the war in heaven and fought on the same side for a lot of it
>An Avatar of Khaine can be corrupted into a Genestealer
>Slaanesh doesn't actually consume Eldar souls and they've been reincarnating this whole time but with no memories
>Greater Demons are just projected avatars and not actually the real physical manifestation of that demon
>Warp gods were all originally a single mortal or gestalt of mortal souls that ascended, or at least Slaanesh was

Is this in reference to Shalaxi revealing she was a hologram at the end of the fight? I don't recall that passage saying this is something all greater daemons do (I may be misremembering).

>>96380201
Iron hands book series canceled too for some reason. Maybe because geedubs cut back on unnecessary series

for a faction that has some of the coolest and longest lived models, GW sure loves cucking the eldar at every opportunity

>>96380293
Eh I can kind of believe it, the armour they have looks nothing like the traditional appearance of Eldar corsairs, where as their armour is identical to the armour of the Ynnari Vissarch with the way it combines symbols of Craftworlders, Commorite and Harlequins. At the very least the new corsair armour is just lifted from Ynnari stuff.

>>96380364
A lot of the Dark Eldar range is fine. The Boats and infantry hold up great.

>>96380364
>every non-marinefag hated
true fans loved it. only the redditor faggots demanding an imperium/eldari/tau alliance so they can make 40k into the next mass effect/star trek hated it

>>96380368
Jes said than Visarch based on protocorsair back in 2017. This coincides with rumors that visarch must be a yriel/corsair prince model and yvraine must be a lady Malys model for 2015 corsair range update

>>96380194
They were all the canon UM captains at the time. For example, the Master of the Marches was Galenus, the UM 5th company captain until the Plague Wars

>>96380370
Yeah the 60% of the range you can actually get hold of is 'fine' despite other armies getting full overhauls even when their range is newer than dark eldar plastic. Then you have the resin stuff you cant get, two units of which are considered required entries for competitive lists. Then with all that considered the army is still tiny with the overall amount of units at its disposal, not doing the army justice since its been a mainstay faction since 3rd edition.

>>96380368
>At the very least the new corsair armour is just lifted from Ynnari stuff.
The opposite is the case. Goodwin said his Visarch design was supposed to look like a corsair. The corsairs resemble him because he was always supposed to like one of them.

>>96380364
The falcon chassis still looks amazing, but the mould is really showing its age sadly, the kits now have bad slip and mold lines and weird rough surfaces

>>96380377
>>96380384
Okay well that makes sense it was the other way round then, they hijacked corsair stuff to pave way for ynnari and with the corsairs the ywere just going back to the original plan.

>>96380368
The visarch armour is ancient eldar noble armour meant to look like corsair armour, Jes said so

>>96380364
I don't really care, Ynnari are on the path to be squatted, we have a good book in 10th with many ways to play, a range that's basically all refreshed with only a few missing resin characters (Karandras, Illiac, Yriel) that need a new model. The refreshes were all faithful too rather than being coteaz/sanguinary guard tier, only dark reaper heads were a miss from all the models since 2019.

We could be much worse off like blood angels got.

>>96380415
Don't be so disingenuous, if you can even find these extremely rare shitty resin models on ebay, they are prohibitively expensive for most people so there is still a lack of access to the units unless you make proxy conversions yourself. Not acceptable for units listed in a codex.

Eldar are meant to be the "dying race", in GW's and their writers' eyes this means that Eldar are nothing but misery porn and they got no actual wins that'd reflect the fluff that has been written for them.
Also wouldn't surprise me if there was some actual anti-eldar sentiment at GW amongst the designers and lore writers who just hate eldar over personal reasons.
Like we already know Gav Thorpe is like since his collegue Andy Law said that in an interview. So it is not a stretch to imagine if there are more people like Gav still working at GW.

It's more so the fact it's borderline impossible to run an army without a big monopose named character on the table. Sure I can just pretend it's not Typhus but Fecalbuttfartcommius but that's just trying to patch something that aint there. At every turn GW takes active decisions to hamper and slow down customization and options when building an army. I don't care what they think but I do care for their actions that reflect that
>>96380546
Yeah but the Horus Heresy were specially bad. I can still listen to some 40k audiobooks every now and than but I couldn't imagine myself sitting through all of that crap when I barely made it out of the first 3 books
>The good guy is the least bad
They are all bad and disgusting just in different ways from each other, it's just different type of bad instead of some morally grey territory of "erm what they do is justified" when the imperium has no reason to be the way it is aside from overly corrupt oligarchs and some high ranking psychopaths. I like that though, I like the PDF being ran by a fatfuck noble asshole who adorns his walls in gold while people work 17 hours a day, that's hilarious and seeing a half illiterate guardsman charge head first into a norn is fucking badass

Imagine the Lamenters if they weren't Space Marines. That's what the Ynnari are; unlucky and constantly assfucked on a meta level.
People gush and cry over Lamenters because they're 'noble protectors of Humanity' despite being fucking Marines.
Ynnari tried being the same for Eldar and GW decided they should just get all the shafting done at once, which naturally pissed everyone off when every other Eldar plot thread got wrapped into the Ynnari under Yvraine.
Somebody with an Eldar-centric site made a good write-up on how the Ynnari were utterly awful just with their intro in Shattering of Biel Tan. It would be impressive how badly they fucked up the plots if it weren't so utterly pathetic.

Alright cool.

Lol this edition man

>>96380702
Going over it one by one.
Slaanesh wasn't created from negative emotions. Slaanesh was created from the unrealised desires of the Aeldari race. So regardless of what the Aeldari did, Slaanesh was getting developed in the Warp. Because the existence of the Aeldari alone was spawning Slaanesh. Aeldari society only became hedonistic as Slaaanesh's power grew strong enough to near his birth.

The Aeldari had no hand in the Iron Men rebellion. This comes out of nowhere. It's suggested that it was Vashtorr who was behind the Iron Men rebellion.

No evidence that the Aeldari attacked humanity pre-fall.

>>96380660

You mean a DAoT ship that destroyed Asuryani ships.

Asuryani ships =/= Pre-Fall Aeldari. Retard.
The Aeldari are as far removed from their peak strength as the Imperium is from the DAoT.

All lore available says that the Aeldari Pre-Fall were the dominant and untouchable faction in the galaxy

>>96380740
aeldari are what they are called and is what they shall be named as.

>>96380740

The Dark Eldar bird you dummy.

Tell me about priming. Especially colors. Does it matter what color I use to prime?
Say I want to paint a black model. Now then obviously I'd prime it black but... I still need to paint the black prime using another black to get a better surface and color.

What If I prime the model.I want to paint black using for example Grey Seer? Which is essentially something between white and grey. Would the the difference be big? I see people on youtube prime in a variety of colors, one black, one grey, one gold and in the end the result is the same (to my eyes). Does the color of the prime matter much or is it just a small helpful thing?

>>96380734
Humans winning any individual anecdotal battle doesn't really contradict everything we've had described about pre-fall Eldar and DAOT humanity. Humanity was crawling it's way through an essentially unoccupied galaxy because the Eldar stuck to a relatively small part of the galaxy, but they were still unchallenged. I do think there is even mentions of DAOT humanity winning battles against the Eldar as well as having peaceful exchanges with them, but skirmishes on the fringes do not equal the maximum of what's possible for a civilization. The native peoples of central and south america won many battles against the invading spanish and portuguese but we all can still accept that the Europeans had much more advanced technology in shipbuilding, navigation, firearms, explosives, agriculture, government, armor etc. DAOT Humanity was far from the peak of what humans are capable of, but even then the construction of something like a craftworld fleet or a necron warship is still far beyond the powers of any period of humanity. In fact, one of the core plot points of all of warhammer is that the Emperor literally doomed his entire species trying to unlock just one of the Eldar's most important technologies. I'm not denying, however, that in 30k and 40k Eldar exist purely to job to marines or be their girlfriends.

>>96380783
That's a really great deal, the monoliths alone are at least 200 bucks, add 90 warriors and you're probably already at 400.
The only reason not to get this is if you really have the maximum of everything on that list already.
Goddamn, I wish I found deals like this on ebay.

>>96380817
Priming black is good for a dark model, priming white is good for a light model. Doing a zenithal is good for contrast paint styles. More advanced strategies I haven't used is stuff like painting red for something you paint yellow and knowing which pigments make good bases for other pigments.

>>96380817
it doesn't matter which primer you go with, but if you're painting a light color with poor coverage then a lighter primer would be better. priming in your base color can help speed things up while priming with black makes unpainted areas more visible and gives you a dark color in recesses that you might not reach with a brush if you didn't use sub assemblies.

And their fan base sucks, uppity waacfags since 2nd edition.

It's telling that Necrons have a more positive view of humans than eldar.

>>96380851

>and now they act like it wasn't them who fucked the galaxy for everybody with their bullshit.
It literally wasn't the Craftworlders.

>>96380860
I mean its not like it was a willing thing. Chaos is the bad guy as usual, as posted here >>96380751. The Eldar should actually be commended for holding back Slannesh for so long, it took millions of years of civilization to birth it. Whereas humanity is on track to birth a new chaos god in just a few tens of thousands of years.

>>96380871
It doesn't matter if they inherited it from the Slann. They did, and understood it to the point they could expand, maintain and utilize the webway. When humanity was given the same opportunity as the Eldar they opened a giant portal on their most important planet and created the greatest chaos army in history.

It does make sense, and it's still canon. Sentient life spawns Chaos entities regardless of their behavior. Intrusive thoughts, dreams, and nightmares still flow into the Warp and create monsters.

>>96380860
The Craftworlders ran away instead of starting a civil war, like the Exodites. They're all guilty.
And the worst part is that they don't acknowledge it. The gestation of Slaanesh took millenia, and by M25 it caused the warp storms that destroyed the human DAOT era.
So for ~5000 years, the eldar did nothing but party hard or ran away, until M29 and the Fall.
Plenty of their psykers had to know what was happenning, and they still did nothing to stop the proto Slaaneshi cults.

Just like they did nothing for 60 million years to wipe out Orks or Necrons. Just useless uppity wankers.

>>96380869

I mean the line about shadow selves and the Eldar's Dark Nature implies its something inherent to their species. It's fundamental to their existence. It's like saying it's someone's fault they got cancer when its just a natural flaw in the design. Eldar didn't develop their dark nature in M20+, but the millions of years of suppressing their need to indulge in over stimulation is what created the warp storms.

>>96380899
>Just like they did nothing for 60 million years to wipe out Orks or Necrons. Just useless uppity wankers.
To be fair, it would have been hard to permanently wipe out Orks

>>96380899
>Not really. It only seems to have become a thing in M20+
Wrong. Phil Kelly said, while discussing the Greater Good Goddess, that Slaanesh in his embryonic state was a thing at he dawn of the Aeldari race.
Gav Thorpe also said that Slaanesh influenced the Aeldari into birthing him.

>>96380899
>And the worst part is that they don't acknowledge it. The gestation of Slaanesh took millenia
No, it took one generation for eldar to go from normal to a self destructive extreme, it was a very rapid downfall.

>>96380896
>it's still canon
Citation needed.
>Intrusive thoughts, dreams, and nightmares still flow into the Warp and create monsters.
Yes, but so do other positive and fantastical dreams.
Chaos wasn't created from mere thoughts, but from polluting the Warp by slaughter on a galactic scale.
A thought of bloodletting is infinitely weaker than actually spilling it.
And yes, you can control your thoughts, especially for a psychic race renowned for control.

What makes sense is a good fraction of Eldar indulging in their dreams in real life, and also explains a lot a huge faction of those who caved in.

You now remember Telemachon Lyras, the greatest swordsman of not one but two Traitor Legions.

>>96380899
That's actually something I'm curious about regarding eldar and necrons. I mean the necrons were just chilling in their tomb worlds for millions of years and you're telling me the alaitoc were the only ones who decided to take this opportunity to start sabotaging their great enemy? The fact the necrons got to sleep mostly unmolested feels like a pretty massive amount of plot armor that doesn't get acknowledged very often.

>>96380928
dunno, ask /hhg/

>>96380854
I said they like them better than Eldar, not that they love them.
Non biocidal necrons like Trazyn may even have humans as servants, and they understand Humanity much better than Eldar too, even if they still see us as inferior.

Meanwhile the eldar blame us for problems they caused, and play the victim card after having raided human worlds for sport for millenia even before the Fall and the Imperium

>>96380899
>Just like they did nothing for 60 million years to wipe out Orks or Necrons. Just useless uppity wankers.
Okay, but let's be real. Step out of 40k for a second: genociding multiple entire races and cleansing the galaxy of all species you don't like is probably morally wrong. Even today, when we kill of some obscure crab by failing to maintain the environment properly people get mad. There was probably significant elements of the Eldar empire that saw themselves as stewards of the galaxy and that keeping them around in some form was a moral good.

And the Necrons literally kill the C'tan. The War in Heaven was mostly against the C'tan, not the Necrons.

>>96380904
Thought it was genuine mini for a moment.
But that's a shit thought. Kroot are birds, not lizards. It should be a feathered serpent, if at all.

Also 40k has better dragons in Eldar mounts, or those dinosaurs in the fluff.

>>96380936
Fair enough. Though if we aren't generalizing there are Eldar and Necrons who both despise and seem to tolerate or even like humans.

>>96380899
>The Craftworlders ran away instead of starting a civil war
Craftworldwers were the ones who actually stayed and fought till the bitter end to get the pleasure cults to realize what they were stumbling into.
The craftworlders left once they realized that birth of Slaanesh was imminent and couldn't be stopped. And once the craftworlds were starting to leave is when Slaanesh was finally born and then punched Eye of Terror into existance which then also swallowed up many of the craftworlds into the Warp because they the said vessels weren't fast enough to escape.
The ones who left first were the exodites and they left because they saw that the shit was going to inevitably hit the fan and they weren't gonna hang around to see if it would. And in the end the exodites were right and proven correct.

>>96380923
>it's still canon
The Chaos Gods being created purely out of emotion is basic canon.
The Titanic daemon that appeared in the Ahriman novel was born purely out of the sailors fear of drowning.
>Chaos wasn't created from mere thoughts, but from polluting the Warp by slaughter on a galactic scale.
Nah. Just thoughts.

>And yes, you can control your thoughts, especially for a psychic race renowned for control.
You can't. The Emperor said in MoM the only way the Aeldari could have saved themselves was to isolate themselves from the Warp completely.

Extrapolating from that the Emperor said that since his WEbway project failed even if humanity evolved into a golden psychic race the Warp will destroy mankind.

>>96380922
>it was a very rapid downfall.
The storms broke warp travel in M25 and the fall was in M29

AFAIK that's more than an Eldar generation

>>96380933
Eldar tech relies on psychic power and thus produces psychic results.
Necron Tombs repel psychic power because they're blackstone.
Eldar would have had to obliterate every planet they came across to wipe out the Necrons.

Are you being a daft cunt? The Aeldari didn't raid humanity before the Fall.

The Fall helped humanity by releasing the Emperor from the Sol system.

>>96380962
not that anon but M27 eldar are basically mostly on the way to being dark eldar at this point so its not unreasonable for the slave culture to be evolving or firmly establish atp. They didnt invent Drukhari culture overnight in commoragh, the pleasure cults were already established.

>Meanwhile the eldar blame us

>>96380961
I accept your concussion.

>>96380933
Little to no Warp presence probably helped them a lot there in hiding
Plus the Eldar would have to have searched every planet, every asteroid, every moon for them exhaustively and then would have had to fight them tooth and nail to exterminate them. And after a long war they probably didn't have the heart to commit themselves to that kind of endeavor. Combined with the newer generations becoming more and more selfish and arrogant, they probably saw it as a waste of time, why would they devote time and lives to kicking down an enemy they had already "defeated"

You see, this is why none likes you eldarfags. Instead of taking your butthurt silently you derail the whole thread to justify no buying enough Eldar models to keep your faction relevant.

>>96380979
Yep. My headcanon is superior.

>>96380977
>>Meanwhile the eldar blame us
>hold on bucko, whose us?

Anon, he's autistic. He literally self inserts as 'all of humanity' in the same way audhd teens self insert as kirito.

>>96380976
It's unreasonable to state it with no proof. The Pre-Fall Aeldari had little incentive to raid. They didn't need to torture to live. Everything was within reach.
The Drukhari Kabal system was invented to adapt to the pos-Fall conditions

>>96380976
yeah and they raided each other, drukhari always prefer to torture other eldar if possible since they have stronger souls and emotions

>>96380953
You don't get it. The fact that the faction that become craftworlders was not even able to start a civil war, damns their entire race.
Most eldar were actually closer to Commoragh degenerates. CWE aren't the "real eldar". They were a powerless minority.

>>96380992
Fair enough. If anything, the ones leaving the homeworlds where the Craftworlders who are stated to be the sane, orthodox Eldar who actively liked having aliens aboard and traveling the galaxy.

>>96380994
This doesn't make any sense though, because they wouldn't have soul thirst until Slannesh was born.

>>96380996
This. The craftworlders were basically the Amish. Its like asking why the Amish don't start a revolution and conquer North America to save it from degeneracy.

I like big hats.

>>96380996
That's wrong. The Aeldari codex of 10th ED says that the Craftworlds keep true to the traditions, lore, and customs of the ancient Aeldari.

>>96381003
>Its like asking why the Amish don't start a revolution and conquer North America to save it from degeneracy.
Because Amish are part of the said degeneracy?

>>96380996

Dark eldar aren't real eldar either, they are just the bastard children of the retards that doomed their entire race (it wasn't the CWE that did that)

>>96381008
>10ed Codex
Lol
Lmao

>>96380928
Why does his facemask look like Jerry Seinfield

>>96380933
as far as I understand the eldar left the necrons be for 4 reasons:

the war in heaven had already been destructive enough and nobody alive wanted to drag it out further, even with the assurance of total victory, it would still be bloody for those involved, and nobody wanted to be the ones that had to be involved now after everything they already went through, let it be a problem for someone else, for some other time, if ever

the eldar had future sight, and as far as they could see, they didn't see the necrons causing any sort of ripple or consequence in the skeins of fate for millions and millions of years, and I doubt they could see precisely over 60 millions years in the future, so it must have looked as if they wouldn't be a problem ever again, to them, and it practically wasn't a problem for millions and millions of years, that's an absurdly long scale even to the eldar

the necrons without the ctan were weaker than the eldar, which is why they retreated, the eldar had no reason to think their power would dimish, nor had reason to believe the necrons would regain enough power to challenge them, so they were sure the necrons wouldn't try anything against them, and probably thought they should intervene only if they had reasons to think the necrons were in fact gathering some kind of strength to threaten them, which they never really did

finally, the exact positions of the tomb worlds weren't exactly known or trusted, rooting them out would have been a bloody, lengthy and costly grind

5th reason might have been pity, after all there were rare instances of alliances against common foes, but I doubt it mattered much, I'm just including it here because I like the trope of ancient foes with enough respect for each other to occasionally see each other as civilised people and not just differently colored dots on a strategical map

So real Eldar.

>>96381024
Codexes are the primary lore source.
Still canon and more canon than your incoherenr fanfiction ramblings.

>>96380955
I remember that it was explicitly said in some places as happening very very rapidly in the span of one generation, although I wouldn't be surprised if different books said different things.
And the warp works weirdly and retroactively, the warp storm might have started before the eldar did anything.

>>96381003
Exodites are Space Amish. They even live in low tech comparatively.
Craftworlders are too preachy, too militant and politicized.

>Most eldar were actually closer to Commoragh degenerates.
That's fanfiction from deldarfags and has always been.

>>96381051
Exodites are homesteaders / techbro bunker dwellers. They took what they needed to live a sane, comfortable idyllic life away from the coming apocolypse.

Craftworlders had a distinct lower tech level subculture for millions of years before the Exodites fled. What you said would be true if Exodites existed before the fall, which afaik they did not.

>>96381056

Bullshit, in the HH books many worlds are said to have suffered raids from eldar raiders during the Age of strife. Like Nocturne, the homeworld of the primarch Vulkan.

By M20, proto-deldar were already a thing. Just like Exodites, which wouldn't exist if things had not gone to shit.

In the 7th and 8th eldar codex they called pre fall craftworlders as generation ships. eldar generations are thousands of years long. the craftworlds would leave the homeworlds to travel the galaxy trading and learning and not return for 100k+ years at a time.

>>96381088
>In the 7th and 8th
Gotcha. So they didn't. It's really that easy to disprove your arguments.

>>96381072
Nope. I actually read the books you are referring to. All of them have the raids happening AFTER the Age of Strife, during the Great Crusade.
Fucking liar.

Nocturne didn't suffer raiding during the Age of Strife.

>>96381078
>no retort
Concession accepted.

>>96381083
>>it's autistic to include yourself in humanity and not as one fantasy race or anime cartoons
Yes. Its autistic to literally view yourself as a member of a cartoon faction of any flavor. By your arguing style its clear that, like most severely autistic people, you take information that conflicts with your world views as a personal attack and become emotional very quickly.

>>96381078
>There are literally lore sources posted ITT that say pleasure cults existed before the fall
Not all pleasure cults are slaaneshi cults, they all became slaaneshi cults afterwards, but they didn't start as such, pleasure cults are a thing even for high elves in fantasy after the sundering and they are tolerated because unless they go extreme, they aren't an issue, nor necessarily slaaneshi.
Space elves were hedonistic before they were demonically hedonistic.

>>96381008
That's what CWE say, but not what we've saw in portrayals of pre-Fall eldar.
>>96381019
Remember when the guy that became Asurmen was about to be murderraped in the middle of the street going back to home? Yeah

>>96381083
Yes, it is autistic to identify yourself as a fictional humanity.

>>96381110
The pleasure cults rose in a few thousand years, which is a tiny but of time compared to 60 million years of history.

>>96381033
They are still protestant

>>96381029
>the exact positions of the tomb worlds weren't exactly known or trusted
Alaitoc have part of prefall-eldar map with every necron tombworld

>>96381125
i forgor that christfags literally turn their brains off when their fanfiction religion comes up and you cant use them for an anology for anything because they will immediately start ranting for their team instead of addressing the point. my fault thread.

Chaos Knights should get another Dominus variant.

>>96381072
>Like Nocturne, the homeworld of the primarch Vulkan.
You mean planet which was raided by mandrakes from Commoragh and whose residents were then freed by Craftworld/Corsair Eldar. Remember what happenned to them?

>>96381066
wait... so if old codexes aren't a source. and new codexes aren't' a source... and novels aren't a source... what's a source? you? just you and what you like?

>>96381136
Alaitoc are exceptional for that, and don't really share that info.

>>96381152
>what's a source?
Arch podcast

>>96381152
The only thing that's canon are box art color schemes anon.

>>96381147
chaos knights and imperial knights should be LESS symmetrical, not more

let chaos knights field demon engines instead, it not like they seel enough to justify an equal amount of releases as the loyalists anyway.

>>96381160
So there is no source

>>96381152
Old codexes are preferred source. But it's not always valid. Like the Necron lore now. Actually I prefer oldcrons, but whatever.

There different accounts to Eldar fall since that codex, and more sensible.

>>96381152
everything and nothing is canon. you pick and choose to suit yourself.

>>96381165
>>96381168
Then why are throwing a shitfit about sources? Do you not see how that's literally doublethink?

>>96381177
Because nulore is inconsistent with the old fluff in both letter and spirit?

>>96381101
carnac this is you fighting with yourself, it’s autism and schizophrenia

slut

>>96381125
Protestants are less degenerate than the catholics.

>>96381177
anon I just woke up and posted that, I'm not really up on what this conversation is.. just posted my opinion on canon in warhammer to answer your question.

for example, I prefer to think of all of the heresy content as not canon because I prefer the heresy to be a 10,000 year old myth.

>>96381191
i wish she would call me an amusing little monkey

>>96381168
Honestly the only sensible hill to die on these days.

>>96381192
Both are dumb, but pr*testants worse than catholics

>>96381192
>violence and racism is good
>sex is bad

Friends do not let friends play Tau.

>Think of headcanon last night before bed
>Don't want to post it now since it's Eldar related
Sometimes I wish I was normal

>>96381246
What a shitty comic

>>96381247
Just post it and ignore the autists. Don't let the mentally ill prevent you from being a nerd.

>>96381247
Pick a different faction retard

>>96381247
I don't share my preferred headcanon with others either. It's fine. You're fine.

>>96381246
What a great comic

I bought the necrons
haggled for £375, will be selling some stuff i dont need so probably about £300 total

>>96381247
>>96381259
Please share your headcanons, I enjoy reading them

The head developer of Dawn of War 4 is a WAAAAAGGH boss himself - what a unit

>giant fat euro guy
you know the game is gonna be kino

>>96381307
certified fa/tg/uy

>>96381307
Those kind of fatasses are either the most dedicated and talented people around or the absolute bottom of the barrel of hacks and sellouts, no in-between.

I have no problem with headcanons, but I would just prefer people said "I admit that is a source, but it contradicts my headcanon" when proven wrong instead of doubling down and being a retard.

>>96381321
Tell that to eldarfags

>>96381321
The people arguing about canonicity don't do it because they prefer a different headcanon, they do it because they're mentally ill.

>>96381320
It's the latter judging by their last game

>>96381321
my headcope is canon and i don't need a source

>>96381281
Well
Eldar have an entire Path dedicated to mourning, which is utilized to help cope with death and loss. However; Eldar have absurdly long lifespans and will almost never die of natural causes, therefore those on the Path of Mourning have no properly 'natural' source of training on the Craftworld.
To that end, whenever the Eldar are moved to attack an Imperial world with civilian casualties, Guardians will go about abducting Human infants and taking them back to their Craftworld. These Humans are then raised by the Eldar on the Path of Mourning, who then get first-hand experience with losing an Eldar-'like' life that lasts a fraction of an actual Eldar lifespan.

>>96381324
Everyone here acts like a toddler that needs to have the last word, it's not limited to any faction you retarded ape

>>96381270
Nice. Good find.

>>96381321
After being disappointed time and time and time again with the new codexes I just flatly rule them out if I didn't like them. That seems sensible enough.
No headcanons even needed exactly, just culling of nulore.

>>96381407
okay eldarfag

>>96381418
Nice try, but I'm the Imperium fan.

>>96381401
hopefully I can find a speartip for the pariahs and get a bunch of recasts of it

>go to lgs with a list of paints to buy
>they have just about every brand of paint
>tfw every single one i wanted is out of stock

Zero out of the ten paints i wanted were available. I couldn't believe it

>>96381455
One of them was Abaddon Black I guarantee it

>>96381462
Nah I actually have that, and the ttc equivalent

>>96381437
You can probably get it printed easily. For green rods, look for Lego lightsabers, they're a bit thicker and you have to cut them to the right size, but they work decently.

>>96381455
Embrace the Vallejo pill.

>working on the fluff for my Inquisition army again

Lord Inquisitor Millina Corvich, Ordo Malleus Master #148/169 currently heads up what is simply known as a Redaction Force. A force which, in her opinion, has been far too busy ever since the formation of the Cicatrix Maledictum.
She is garbed in some of the most advanced Aegis equipment available to the Inquisition, with hexagrammmic wards and a purity matrix laid under simple cloth and leather. Her mask is a unique mastercraft combination of psychic hood, iron halo, and complete tactical hololith display.
She is responsible for removing any trace of the daemonic left after an incursion by the archenemy into Imperial territory. With roughly fifty members of the Grey Knights 7th Brotherhood at her command the work is often quick and efficient, be it as simple as underhive gutter rats addled beyond saving by dark events; as complicated as entire cults left remaining after their plot has succeeded, or even rogue greater daemons wandering the ruins of a former Imperial world.

>>96381474
Well I went to 3 stores and all of them were out of it so I had to order a 10 pack online.

>>96381481
One such deployment found the Knight world of Gremania utterly consumed by a warpstorm and well on the way to becoming a full daemon planet. It was here that by the grace of the Emperor one last loyal metal steed was discovered battling its way through the wastes. When the Ordo Malleus cleansed the world it fought alongside them and after the campaign of purity, was given a rosette by the Lord Inquisitor. That gift then calmed the raging machine spirit and ever since at the end of every battle the tech priests and serfs add a trinket, reliquary, icon, seal, or banner from the remains of the battlefield to the knight's carapace. Now the last survivor of House Gremania is sworn to the Lord Inquisitor until it finds a battle suitable for dying in, to join his lost brothers who are with Him on Terra.

>>96381358
That's a really interesting idea anon. A nicer version of what the dark eldar do to captive humans but still very fae like where children are abducted and never seen again

>>96379431
the motorized part of an army at least

>>96379431
Last time I’ll post it.

>>96381481
>She is garbed in some of the most advanced Aegis equipment available
Well she sure doesn't LOOK like it.
Aegis is a power armor.

>>96381484
Thats unbelievable, its not a matte black is it? Don't know why its in demand desu

>>96381478
Using the meme chart ive noticed that vallejo equivalents aren't quite the same. Also they are always out of stock of the one paint i want

>>96379360
It’s all over the place generally. In the crusade I’m running one of our tau players has like 20 requisition points because of rolling good on the planet generation tables and shit. I wouldn’t worry about it.

>>96381208
Catholics are consistently worse.

>>96381512
Nope not even matte colored just plain old dark black. Also none of them ever restock there damn technical paints gdi.

>>96379431
I dont get it, i never any of these posters but they seem to reply to a post like this

>>96381208
If catholics were as good as catholics believe, then prostestants would never even exist in the first place.

>>96379431
Surprisingly this pic is only about 60% of my boys if that.

>>96381540
