Thread question:
What's your favourite Space Marine model?

Let Chaos idols take this thread!

Was it necessary to give this much Thighservice to a tentacle brain bug?

>>96959778
Yes.

>>96959778
Sex with my bug wife.

Reminder:

>>96959764 (OP)
Victrix Guard with the shield. Peak loyalist aesthetic.

>>96959787
There's a WD article that talks about another spider worhsipping chaos cultists and its khorne.
Found it!

Fuck me my nipples are like Claymores in this cold weather.

I like to rewrite entire swaths of Warhammer 40000 lore in my head canon
>Warhammer 40000 takes place in the same universe as Warhammer Fantasy and is just the Warhammer fantasy world in the far future
>no ties to our world or real world geography or names
>Astartes, Custodes, Primarchs, the Emperor, Thunder Warriors, etc are a separate race of giants/super humans who rule and protect the rest of humanity instead of being genetically enhanced
>Astra Militarum aren’t fucking weak and are almost always successful in defending/reclaiming worlds. Barring the most ridiculous world ending Chaos/Xenos invasions
>most planets live in relative peace. The galaxy is fucking unfathomably gigantic. It’s impossible for EVERY SINGLE planet to be war-torn/dedicated to feeding the war effort
>etc
Any else do this?

>>96959883
I like to make my Knights houses match my marine factions.

>>96959883
The last one is already pretty much canon

>>96959842
Vashtorr's not even a god and Dark King won't exist so this is a pretty even 4v4 until Gork and Mork ruin things for everyone.

>>96959883
>most planets live in relative peace.
I agree if you consider places like necromunda being a world f relative peace in 40k

>>96959883
this is all dogshit
never post it again

>>96959893

>>96959910
>This post is off-topic.

>>96959911
Its nothing compared to other far fetched stuff some people have come up with.

>>96959883
40k and Fantasy actually used to be canon to each other until GW deliberately muddied the waters, and then un-muddied the waters slightly because they're a bunch of wishy washy retards.

>>96959918
Atleast you don't give them ugly fucking furry animal heads, right? Because that's the worst shit I've seen on here.

>>96959949
You don't have to exaggerate for dramatic effect punk, I respect your opinion and lets just leave it at that.

Why do soulblight vampire models have to have so few interestign bits on them... even a few extra armor pieces or accessories would go a long way...

Any Horus fans here?

Personally, he's my favourite of them all

Mfw I realize that considering how broke I am and how much of a perfectionist I can be, it'll probably be 11e by the time I manage to put together a 1000pt list:

How does he fly with those ribbons or w/e? Won't they get stuck in his jetback??

>>96960024
dunno ask /hhg/

>>96960061
Thrust pushes downwards towards the ribbons so they dont get sucked in but pushed away.

>>96959764 (OP)
That marine is like twice as big as actual marines.

>>96960067
umm it's the 42second millenium?

>>96959949
fag

Chaos marines refresh when?

How do chaosfags cope with those shitty ass models?

>>96960090

So? We can't talk about our history?

Is there any way to make xenos feel like a threat to the Imperium?

>>96960108
post?

>>96960106
Why do you feel that they are not? Obviously the Imperium will always be one minute from midnight and midnight will never come.

>>96960095

>>96960101
I'm wanting to use soulblight stuff to make my death company look like evil fucjing vampires

>>96960024
Remember when he met Leman Russ and was instantly jealous of him and felt inferior to him? I remember...

>>96959790
>>96959797
The Tyranids are learning fast. They're trying to use sex appeal to stop the guard. Thank the emperor we have the space marines, admech, and sisters to combat this evil.

>>96960162
Completely normal and human feeling making him more sympathetic and likeable.

Being a retarded furry thoughever? Not so much.

>>96960170
>Completely normal and human feeling
It's the behavior of a naive girl, grow up lmao

>>96960162
i dont recall that at all
he thought he was an uncouth savage
i dont remember which book it was in however

>>96960176
Horus was warmaster and Leman is a retard on par with angron. Stop coping. They're not comparable.

>>96960124
Even the legions that don't have a specific god can still be faithfully recreated too
>iron warriors

I know this is bait but come on man

>>96960164
This reminds me of that old fanart from 2007 with the Space Wolf (female) I used to love in my pants. Velma the sister with her little shortstack (6 feet tall woman) body.

>>96960117
Because so far, the only major defeat the Imperium has ever suffered has come at the hands of Chaos. Chaos was responsible for the Imperium's downfall post-Horus Heresy, it was responsible for splitting the Imperium in half, Chaos was responsible for the Imperium losing half of its army and being the disorganized mess it is today.

By contrast, Orks have failed to take Armageddon 3 times in a row, Necrons haven't really achieved anything of note other than watch their superweapons get destroyed, the Tyranids have yet to eat a world the Imperium cares about, the Tau have yet to conquer a world the Imperium cares about, the Eldar are literal who's, and the Drukhari are a minor pest at most.

>>96960197
lost to angron 1 on 1 and in a debate
so you're right he's actually worse than the retard primarch

>>96960197
Yea Leman makes Angron look like a retarded ape, I agree.

>>96960197
Ok maybe not. Maybe Konrad Curze.

At least compare Horus to the Lion or Guilliman. Leman Russ is a retarded savage warrior but he doesn't come close to real primarchs.

You picked a very bad primarch to stan. For me, it's Horus.

>>96960219
go back to your discord

Why are woofs so insecure about their primarch

>>96960218
You reach for this retarded explanation of events because you know its all you have. Keep dreaming faglord.
>>96960220
lolololool I cannot wait until he comes back as an epic Odin like character and saves the setting from chaotic disaster. Everyone here will weep at my feet groveling for SW favor.

>>96960192
if I was knew to 40k lore and only knew what each god represented (nurgle = disease / decay, khorne = blood / violnence), it's easy to tell which legion represents which.

Meanwhile, you have...dark blue space marines. Light blue space marines (with beards). Yellow space marines. Red space marines (sometimes with angel iconography). Black space marines. White space marines.

YAAAAWN

>>96960237
uh oh decalmutant melty

>>96960247
nobody's mocking you babe we're all laughing at the failure furfag primarch

THEY ARE EVERY ONE OF THEM ULTRAMARINE BLUE ON THE INSIDE

>>96960278
>notice you didn't put Gay Space Marines on there.
He’s just avoiding a tautology, anon.

>>96960289
Look we respect Gman and his hoard of blue buffoons but our eternal allegiance is to our own brotherhoods.

>our
oh god the obese mutant thinks he's a marine for real

I am a marine for real and will spend 50,000 dollars in germany next year so I may become tall like a space marine and jack from baki.

I think the space wolvesfag is kinda cute. The guy who keeps calling him out seems way more unhinged.

Space wolves smell bad and Leman Russ is retarded though fr fr

>>96960339
>I weight over 800 pounds when fully kitted out
Space marines, particularly primaris, weigh roughly 800 pounds naked.
They're wearing roughly 600 kilos of basic armour. Then he's got the jump pack that's at least another 200 kilos.
Then another 100 kilos of weapons and ammo, not including if he'd be hauling a heavy weapon.

>>96960306
Then why did the Emperor allow it to go on throughout his reign and why did he refer to Leman Russ and only Russ as one of the true-hearted and one of the few he knew would never fall? No one ever has an answer for this because they would be questioning the Emperor himself. Fuck yourself faggots.

>>96960380
he's right thoughbeit

>>96960389
Awww is the decalnigger upset?

>>96960380
To where?

>>96960381
That’s still over 800 pounds
>>96960380
Huh?
>>96960389
Take it up with Matt Ward the skublord not me.

>>96960400
personal attacks instead of backing up your arguments?!?!?

Concession fully accepted!

>TQ
I going to assume we mean infantry model because otherwise it's Boxnaught for days. But my favorite even now is still the Assault Sergeant 1 (with Power Fist), but fuck me I cannot find a decent picture of one.

>>96959764 (OP)
>TQ: What's your favourite Space Marine model?
I miss this lil ninja like you wouldn’t believe

Are there indian chapters in 40k? With the dominance of Indians all over the world now, I think GW needs to hire more indians for their own internal staff and use some of their black people marketing budget for indians. The 2nd and 11th can be utilized for this purpose as well.

>>96960407
>concession fully accepted
anybody who says this has lost the argument

>>96960418
You’ll be wanting the hilariously shitty FIGHTING TIGERS OF VEDA, a homebrew chapter of fem-marines created by a passionate autistic jeet gooner who never let a lack of talent get in the way of hotgluing his models.
https://archive.md/pLhTd

>>96960418
Every single faction, Xeno and Imperium alike defecate, the totality of that defecation represents the Indian chapters of the Imperium.

how is that a constructive argument?

>>96960439
Certainly a story of what could have been...sadly its a story of severe mental retardation.

>>96960428
The depths of autism never cease to amaze me

>>96960430
necrons hate defecation and anyone that references it is often punished.

>>96960212
You make the same pedantic stupid fucking statement every thread.

>>96960443
Blame Chaos or Erebus but...... Horus bad......

>>96960444
Trips activates my trap card

>>96960446
Yea I guess that is true, I concede that small grievance with the statement.

The good news: I'm retarded apparently and there are actually quite a few models with nice bat/demon wings/bat decorations that can work well for my vampire dudes

The bad news: none of these models come in anything better than 3 models per box... though I guess since JPIs are so expensive themselves, it's not like I'll be getting a ton of them either

>>96960418
A chapter inspired by Kshatriya or Sikh history would be interesting to see executed.

Are you picking up one of the battleforces later this month anons?

>>96960212
>the Tyranids have yet to eat a world the Imperium cares about
Then why has Titus been commanded to ‘take back the 500 worlds’ of the Ultramarines from the Nids, if the imperium ‘doesn’t care’ about them?

>>96960476
I'm picking up the skaven one

I'm thinking about painting my Tau yellow. Also here are my feet

>>96960476
they're not for any of my armies so i don't care

>>96960476
Pfffft no

>>96960485
yellow is the correct colour for tau

>>96960095
a lot of the main stuff for CSM is actually pretty modern. probably the oldest stuff that is desperate for a refresh are their bikers, helbrute, terminator lord, some characters and a few daemon engines
these things are only a matter of time and also replacements for their vehicles

>>96960502
I love Tau Players, they are hopelessly optimistic and certainly low IQ but I just love their positivity.

>>96959842
Sounds boring, just gonna watch the gork n mork cage match instead

Hmm...

So on my vampire-marine project, what I'm realizing is that my main options are
1. Soulblight models, which can give me big bat wings or just straight up bats themselves
2. Night lords stuff, which has some good things but not very many

Is it even worth trying? Maybe if I get some good bat wings and tattered cloaks on my guys it will look good...

>>96960485
Post caged wiener

>>96960502
I include a heatwave team in every list. Is it worth loading a commander up with flamers? I feel like it's a waste of BS3

>>96960518
>Is it even worth trying?
No. Are you going to make this post every day saying the exact same thing and then make no effort to try and solve your problem

>>96960418
Dark Angels

>>96960351
>thinking I work for GW
Trust me. We'd have african eldar, spartan tau battlesuits, and half the marine models would be holding a organ or bone. Also sister's with big tits and female guardswomen.

>>96960530
Well, I have made progress, just not much.

I guess this would be really easy if I had a 3d printer, but I don't. I might just shelf it as a cool idea to try later

>>96960476
Almost tempted to get the EC one because I want to loot Fulgrim for a Gorkanaut but idk what I'd do with the rest

>>96960521
I've never actually played a game with tau i just like the idea of one day activating a 10d6 overwatch

>>96960545
You should shelve it so I don't have to see you ask this exact same question again

>>96960542
>sister's with big tits and female guardswomen.
Based

>>96960481
That doesn't even make any fucking sense, you don't 'take back' worlds from the nids, if the nids eat a world it's just fucking gone.

my single nu-ravener finally showed up in the mail, and I've never been so torn.

On the one hand, I love the idea that we get options between scything talons and various melee morphs, the weird unspoken rule where "ZE RANGED RAVENER VILL HAVE ZE TRIDACTYLE HANDS!! SCHNELL!!" always bugged me. Don't get me wrong, modern 40k is even more retarded with its kit rules, but I've made it past the point of caring what's legal when I build a model. It should look cool and be satisfying to build and paint first, and fit into some Bri'ish corpo fatcat's idea of balanced meta fucking never.

>>96960518
Are you the tyranid spiders guy? You type just like him. Have you finished those yet?

>>96960548
I love deep striking these guys in behind enemy lines. Theyve wiped out everything infantry. I'll have to give a flamer Commander a try. I just need to make a unique Commander suit for them.

>>96960575
1. It's not just the nids.
2. Nids eating literally everything, down to extracting all the useful metals from the mantle is no longer the case. That indeed was their initial behavior (presumably because the previous galaxy was incredibly resource-poor by the time they were done with it), but now they just skim the readily available resources off the top and move on because it's more efficient. Nowadays a nid-eaten planet can be terraformed back into liveability given enough time and resources. Not saying Titus is tasked with doing that, to be clear.

>>96960590
Nope. Not sure who that is actually

>>96960590
I'm pretty sure the spider guy mentioned he'd been hobbying for like 20 years or some shit and had not a single painted army cause he keeps changing projects. Reminder that he bought like a dozen or more starter sets as well

Always nice to catch you in the sewers of /40kg/. The red is a nice touch from your usual scheme

>>96960476
I'm kind of interested in the Tau one. I've been thinking of being completely unoriginal and just making them Evangelion or Gundam colored.

Can someone tell me if theres been any major storybeats for the universe since uhh the liion has come back? Hasn't it been 3 years since he's come back?
He's done something since then right and grilyman and him have met right

>>96960642
GW has intentionally made them not interact with each other by putting them on different sides of the great rift.

>>96960586
I lost my train of thought.
>>96960623
I mean...
I kind of fucking hate these raveners, man. They got rid of the swept back crest, and they gave it this weird egg beak instead of the old rat fangs. It's funny you post a rat, but this is one of the main three things that really irk me about the redesign.
>No more warrior crest, nu-raveners have Gaunt heads with bits attached
>No more vent fins on the back shell
>Beaks instead of incisors

I do really like the wrecker, it's got the crushing claws and I'm a sucker for the Red Terror-style split-jaw. The rest of the KT box is honestly too much change. The one with the six bendy antennae looks bad, the one with the sponge face looks fucking awful.

>>96960637
This but wraithknights

>>96960630
Ha, thanks. The red were supposed to have been my version of the farsight 8, but some of the loadouts are just nonsense. So I built 4 of them (before the farsight resculpt) and called it. The rest are still tan, blue, and black. But I like to make commanders unique for my benefit, so that I dont mistake one for another.

>>96960380
I keep seeing faggots post this but they never say to where because they're ultimately not from here. They also don't call you a newfag, because that would imply -retarded shit- was the default state of /tg/ at its inception 17 yeas ago.

Hey folks, question for you. What all exactly do we know about the Bucephalus?

>>96960724
Everyone has some autism, it's a spectrum. It's also more likely for those deeper on the spectrum to not realize the symptoms and assume everyone thinks the same way as them

>>96960476
I would be very tempted to get the CSM one but I just don't like the Lord Discordant model. If it were a squad of Chosen I'd be sold.

I’d assume either that anon, or the one who posted about getting rid of the transfers, is a copycat or one of his Discord buddies.

Is this an accurate representation of what I can find in a Warhammer store?

Gosh i love my big red cyclops wife magnus the red

>>96961090
the last time I went to my local, yes

>>96961090
yeah, warhammer stores these days tend to be fairly professional and clean. most of the actual greasy oily dank shops run by an equally greasy oily dank ogre tend to go out of business pretty quickly because they repel new customers which loses them money. plus a lot of times those shops were often run as personal hangouts for the owners friends more so than out of an actual interest in making money, so its been my experience that they dont tend to last more than 4 or 5 years

serious store owners are clean, hire friendly young staff, business casual or store branded polo Ts and lanyards, clean shop, etc.

you'll still run into the occasional rats nest here or there but i think since dnd and hobbying has become more mainstream over the last 10-15 years that stuff has become a lot less common than it used to be.

>>96961134
not to mention with the price of these toys these days the only people you see in actual wargaming sections are either well kempt because they have a salary that supports this hobby, fat and slovenly because they live off their parents stolen credit card, or under 18 and destined to become one of the previous two

>>96960843
It's just Five Guys and(small)Fries, but more expensive.

>>96960547
You can get Fulgrim pretty cheap on Ebay. Dude's like $100 NOS at most.

Dogshit models get dogshit prices.

>>96961141
yeah thats not true at all

>>96961134
I'll give you young and clean, but the last store I went to was only staffed by this quiet kid who just wanted to paint his Marines in peace. He seemed a bit annoyed at actually having to deal with a customer.

>>96961167
Ah, the "I'm just here for the employee discount" Chad.

>>96961149
Pff, bet. Maybe I can low-ball someone on a "pro painted" one, then chop his stupid arms off

>>96961134
I’ll say that the lower end of LGS employees is usually no worse than your average home improvement contractor, if maybe slightly better.

>>96961090
My LGS is ran by a fucking degenerate

>>96961154
Sorry to hear you've never been to an LGS in the last 15 years

>>96961174
I had to sell mine for like $80 'cause nobody wants them lmao. The Lord Kakophonist is more desirable at this point.

>>96961154
You're the landwhale with the stolen credit card I see

>>96961099
True. The two LGS I have access too are both run by fat dudes with beards who wouldn't look out of place in the cast of the hobbit. It's pretty based tho ngl

>>96961203
>>96961210
no most of the wargamers these days are late 30s to mid 40s dad with a stable job and a beerbelly types. i think between the two flgs i visit, i can count on ten fingers the number of players that dont fit into that bracket. the younger kids have been priced out of the hobby, and are just into different stuff these days anyways. and i've never heard of anyone stealing a parents credit card to pay for warhammer. i know they call it "plastic crack" but its not actually crack.

now magic cards, thats another story. those guys are actual crack fiends for the shit, and average about 10 years younger than the wargaming crowd

>>96961245
I actually know a guy that got so little pocket money from his parents, so to fit in with us "cool" nerds, he stole from a GW store because he wanted to have models too. I think he was around 16 back then. He stole the battle for macragge box.
His parents found out about it and he was grounded for almost a year.
But everyone from back then is almost 40 by now.

>>96961290
Alan!?

>>96961302
Nah, his name was Dominic

Mortarion is such an insanely cool mini. To this day no other Primarch gets close to him imo, you can really tell the love they put into making him.

>>96961341
Imagine if the other three Legions got the same luxury treatment as the Death Guard did.

>>96961341
He’s just an over detailed fat fucking marine.

whats an easy way to paint red flesh like hive fleet behemoth for example?

>>96961090
My local Warhammer store is all-male staffed, but the best LGS has an alt chick with pierced nipples who I am 32% sure they hired mainly to get some sex appeal going. Coincidentally they also have a deeply spergy manchild seller who gushes about Primaris unironically.

>>96961090
>tfw no big titty british lass with a norf accent

its well and truly over isnt it

How common are abhumans in T'au society. It feels like many of them would be tempted to escape to the T'au Empire just because there they are probably not treated like shit.

so whats the point in the lore if its confirmed chaos wins and that the chaos gods are actually the most powerful beings and its confirmed also they arent even focused at all on the war against the imperium? for them its basically just a minor distraction, like when we play a video game. with chaos confirmed the triumphant faction the lore seems kind of pointless, as its confirmed that nobody can beat them. and this was also how games workshop concluded warhammer fantasy, as chaos was impossible to beat and conquered the old world, thus ending the lore.

>>96961334
Ah, okay, I do wonder now just how common this tale is.

I like black templars but giving up oath of moment for vows seems like too big a downgrade. templars units don't seem to do anything special enough to make up for it. the other divergent chapters feel like they have more direct upgrades (like deathwing knights).

Fomo box with new character models locked in it surrounded by tons of ancient kits and a preposterous pricetag.
Eldar fags are also notoriously patient and don't buy fomo boxes and just wait for individual releases (because most of them own all the twenty year old models already). So they just rotted on the shelves forever and lots of stores had to break them open and part them out. GW hasn't made an Eldar battleforce of any kind since.

>>96961807
I can run my "templars" as normal marines with very minor modelling changes and still get almost everything I like, that's the dilemma. It's not a big deal but I do have to decide whether I glue a combi weapon onto this lt/castellan, and how best to build and base these sword brethren.

Been thinking about finally giving in and getting Krieg but I have no experience playing Guard so I've been waffling about everything.

>start collecting gsc

>>96961891
His trim is pretty tame for a Primarch.

>>96961341
Nah he kind of sucks, the pistol part is too much and the nurglings are lame.
His epic version of "gaunt grim reaper figure with bat wings and devilish prong tail" was cooler

>>96961902
no, he really is one of the worst, trimwise
compare him to the other csm primarchs, and there's far less garbage plastered on the model

>>96961353
>marine hero looks like a marine
shocking!

>>96962003
he should look like a demon

>>96961934
Guilliman is the worst primarch when it comes to trim.

>>96961376
Well, for starters that can't be the case, because even Emperor was considered important enough for all Four Chaos Parasites to unite and explicitly there were and will be things in Materium that were genuinely dangerous to the Four Retards.

>>96962005
he should look like a demon the least because hes the least willing demon primarch

>>96961934
Genuinely no idea what you're talking about, Angron has significantly more trim than Mortarion. Mortarion has a ton of bronze detals but as for actual trim it's just a few pieces on the shoulderpads, legs and abdomen. Angron has the usual CSM fully trimmed armour.

>>96962025
That matters jack fucking shit, he's a demon prince, he should look like a demon, you can shove your weak ass consent forms up your ass.

>>96961376
None of that is "confirmed" and Gods are the most bottlenecked entities in 40k. They also literally grovel and beg for Yabbadabbadon's attention and favour, not the inverse.

Right /40kg/ there's probably 7 months left of this edition and I haven't played it yet.

How do I play eldar in 10th? What's the goto detachments and units? I want a lost that has a solid chance to win despite my naivety.

>>96961887
elaborate

>>96962083
Fulgrim married women on Chemos for political reasons, so Angron is just an imitator at best.

>>96962115
It's an edition that's perhaps even more infantry-heavy than usual for Eldar. You're playing positioning with Hawks and Spiders with Banshees, Dragons and Reapers to provide the firepower. Phoenix Lords are having their moment in the sun, to the extent that tournament lists are often running 4-5 (Fuegan, Jain Zar and the new Lhykhis are mainstays, while Maugan Ra and Asurmen see some play, as does pseudo-PL Eldrad).
Detachment-wise, Warhost and Aspect Host provide a lot of consistency without adding too much complexity or forcing a gimmick and accordingly, they're probably the strongest overall, but you can get away with basically anything other than the Grotmas vehicle detachment - I've enjoyed Seer Council in particular and Windrider Host is very fun if you've got the horde of bikes that it wants lying around from 7e or are playing in TTS.

>>96962115
Just play what you like. They've got a detachment for everything and all of them are reasonably good. The current hotness is Aspect warrior spam in the detachment that supports that but that will likely get nerfed next month anyway.

>>96962157
I've only got 20 bikes, + 3 seers on bike. how many do I need for wind rider?

Aspect host might benthe go for me then, do i bother with transports? Also are scorpions bad? Or just because they don't have a phoenix lord to leverage?

I notice you didnt mention wraiths?

>>96962149
It's funny that the Primarch who is memed to be a faggot had multiple wives.

>>96962207
Thats because women generally like a dash of sensitivity/sensualness or even femininity in men while that is perceived as weakness in machismo culture.

>>96962207
There's a moment in the Heresy books where Jaghatai derides Fulgrim that does "something" with his legionares. But it's never elaborated on.

>>96962181
>I've only got 20 bikes, + 3 seers on bike. how many do I need for wind rider?
20 bikes is more than enough - you're limited to 3x6 at most at the moment. I think the Seer count is around right too. You might need some Spears and some of the new Shroud Runners, but you could put together something workable.

>Aspect host might benthe go for me then, do i bother with transports? Also are scorpions bad? Or just because they don't have a phoenix lord to leverage?
None of the Aspects except arguably Avengers post-Asurmen nerf are bad. Scorpions are another set of good objective pieces alongside Spiders and Hawks; they've got the ever desirable Scout/Infiltrate combo.

>I notice you didnt mention wraiths?
They've got a dedicated detachment where they shine, but they're playable if not always optimal elsewhere. D-scythe Wraithguard are solid (Wraithcannon ones tend to just be a bad value proposition compared to Fire Dragons) - they're competing with Warlocks in the S7 flamer niche with pros and cons to both options. Wraithblades feel a bit mediocre to me, but they're fine. Wraithlords are good with a babysitter and were very useful in Ynnari before that was nerfed into the ground. Wraithknights were, like all Knights, a mistake. They broke the game in half at the start of the edition and are currently properly unplayable.

Interesting that some of the best winrate armies didn't actually perform as well over 8 games at Worlds as some other armies. I wonder if that's due to relative skill level of the player bases or just inconsistency in their performance.

>>96962181
>>96962240
Forgot to add - transports are definitely useful. Both the Serpent and the Falcon have their niches, with the Serpent being very nice for general use and the Falcon being very good at delivering a bomb (typically 5 Dragons and Fuegan or 5 Warlocks and Eldrad) to wherever it needs to be.

>>96961737
>a parable of GUILT and BETRAYAL

Doesn't sound like an endorsement to me, more like he got fucking Stalin'd because the SK really doesn't like the guy.

>>96962181
>>96962240
Forgot to add - transports are definitely useful. Both the Serpent and the Falcon have their niches, with the Serpent being very nice for general use and the Falcon being very good at delivering a bomb (typically 5 Dragons and Fuegan or 4 Warlocks and Eldrad) to wherever it needs to be.

>>96962233
He meant the geneseed fuckery that Fabius was doing(like Aidolon's enhanced vocal chords), not what you think.

>>96962251
I member people saying the DG nerfs were irrelevant.

>>96962207
I wonder if he fucked them. I don't remember what book it was, but when someone asked Fulgrim if he loved any of his wives he replied wistfully "some of them".

>>96962267
Well yeah, but it doesn't help how they wrote that in the book.
So since as faggotry Fulgrim looks, people then started to joke he bangs his legionares.

>>96962264
if he didn't like him he could have deleted him, rather than deleting his crimes

Drukhari should be the main Aeldari faction. Craftworlders should be relegated as the side faction.
You CAN'T prove me wrong!

>>96962233
It was pretty clear what Jaghatai meant if you actually read the book. This is yet another thing memed by secondaries. He was talking about the genetic manipulation and noise marine shit that EC did to achieve "perfection" when they were all made by The Emperor and should be considered perfect already in Jagathai's eyes.

>>96962281
He probably did. Remember that he was younger back then and a bit smaller so I guess it could be possible.

>>96962282
By that logic the Khan fucks his ships since they were both using the same veiled euphemism to imply they knew what fuckery the other was up to.

>>96962286
The SK doesn't have the ability to just remove necrons if he doesn't like them, Imotekh is still around and those two fucking hate each other. Ammentar could've done something real bad and then ran away or hid where the SK couldn't get him.

>>96962294
Nah, Fulgrim was 100% gay for his marines.
It is the quintesensial faggot legion that then went onto worship the faggot god after all.

>>96962289
Yes, I can:


ur a drooling poopoo head and wraithlords rock

>>96962303
No. Khan is just more observant than Fulgrim and can actually see through Fulgrim's lies.

painting models isn't keeping the loneliness at bay like it used to

>>96962306
imotekh became a problem only after the great sleep, because the silent king doesn't have the full extent of the command protocols, before the great sleep he had absolute control over every necron

Are DGfags interested in this for the Daemon Prince? He has folded fly wings on his back and is the normal DP size.

>>96962289
Dark Eldar shouldn't be the main eldar faction because there factually is less of DEIdar than craftworlders.

>>96962303
You don't understand the logic of the arguments at all.

>>96962309
>doubles down on being a secondary
for what reason

>>96962320
No, he's not 40k enough, get a recast of the medusaV demon prince

>>96962282
>Well yeah, but it doesn't help how they wrote that in the book.
The reason you think this is because you've never read this book and rely on reddit memes.

>>96958857
A few years ago I sent GW an email because the HH DA companions page had an error in the 360 view.

I just checked and the error is still there.

TL;DR: don't bother, they don't give a single fuck.

>>96962339
Why would I read bad fanfiction like BL?

>>96962337
He doesn't need to be a Death Guard DP. He could be a mortal from some DG conquered planet and act like a Nurgle Priest in your DG army. That's how I would justify having him.

>>96962323
thats not true at all. Commoragh is massive and they literally pump out halfborn all the time. There's more Drukhari than Craftworlders.

>>96962353
>There's more Drukhari than Craftworlders.
That's incorrect as per the recent Aeldari Codex.

These must be selling because there's like 2000 of these figs. Has anyone here bought one? I'm not even sure what I would want and I own several armies.

>>96962387
Fair enough.

>>96962376
someone at my school pulled one out of his hoodie to show me once and I didnt even tell him I like warhammer. They look okay but I don't really have interest in action figures. Also they are pretty pricey for an action figure. Could be a nice desk ornament.

>>96962376
How long until people start playing 40k with these things? I bet you could already do a 500 point game or something.

>>96962395
why are you hiding your power level, knucklehead? you some chad playing on the football team?

>>96962389
>Has anyone here bought one?
I have two of them, this one and sigismund

>>96962353
No, that's specifically said in the most recent CWE codex.
Also it makes perfect sense.

When Slaanesh was born and the Eye of Terror formed, it swallowed up all of the eldar home worlds which by this point had practically been taken over by the degenerate, faggot pleasure cults.
While the Craftworlders at same time made their escape because they realized the birth of Slaanesh was inevitable and the degenerate retards couldn't be helped and it'd be preferable to let them all die.
Meaning most of the actual degenerates, ie. proto dark eldar who are responsible for Slaanesh died in that very moment.

VERY FEW of them actually managed to get into the webway and then into the place that'd eventually become Commoragh we see today.
All the DEIdar we see nowadays are just descendants of a very lucky few that managed get into the webway.

>>96962397
A 10 man squad of guardsmen would be like $400

>>96962412
The chibi kinda ruins it

>>96962424

The mcfarlane one kinda sucks too. The joytoys are of a noticeably higher quality but you do pay for that. You can find most of them cheaper on aliexpress btw
I have siggy stanced up like his tiny son on the shelf since and it was a great reference to just have a giant one on the table as i painted him

>>96962414
>VERY FEW of them actually managed to get into the webway and then into the place that'd eventually become Commoragh we see today.
>All the DEIdar we see nowadays are just descendants of a very lucky few that managed get into the webway.
This is also wrong. Before the Fall the worst of the worst came and created Commoragh just as the normies boarded Craftworlds. They didn't escape the Fall to Commoragh, they were there before the fall.

>>96961745
Several reasons
The box was very clearly a "Ynnari starter box" in GW's mind, as the conflict in it was centered around the Ynnari and featured both Eldar and Dark Eldar. The issue with that is that Ynnari couldn't use Jain Zar or Drazhar, the two spotlight models of the box, which meant you would still need to buy the full Triumvirate to get the ball rolling.
On the model side of things, outside of Jain Zar, Drazhar, and their respective updated squads, everything in the box was ancient at the time and players of either army would have had multiple of them.
The box was vastly overpriced and there was literally zero upside to getting it rather than just waiting for the individual releases, and given that both factions have players who are fine with waiting that's exactly what happened.

>>96962414
Do you think there are more Dark Eldar or Custodes in the Galaxy?

>>96962408
I have my reasons.

>>96962437
Something looks off with the scale on the second one. Is the new archon slightly bigger than the old one (and the rest of the range)?

>>96962414
>VERY FEW of them actually managed to get into the webway and then into the place that'd eventually become Commoragh we see today.
Except thats why there's a fuck ton of vatborn drukhari that make up the vast majority of the drukhari race.

>>96962470
Kind of correct, but remember modern Commoragh is also a gestalt of thousands of sperate Webway cities connected by portals now as the city grew and overtook them and integrated all of them into the one city.
And also the former high command got barbequed by the Salamanders at Vect's invitation so now the forner underclass is ruling in place of the old nobility

I think people my misunderstand what the half-born are and that leads to this pervasive misconception that Commoragh has an infinitely large population.
Half-born are not clones, but extracted fetuses from unwilling mothers raised in a glass coffin to maturity to free up the mother from a long and debilitating pregnancy that would leave her too vulnerable to survive. The Haemonculi just often take the as orphans raised with debt to pay back.

you think you do, but you dont...
t. grew up with 4 sisters

Was wondering if anyone here could help me identify the head on this kitbash? I'm thinking it's from a Nurgle unit that I saw at one point, but I'm really not sure which.

Thanks! I knew it had to be Nurgle

Why is it that when I was younger I liked Nurgle, now I'm older I prefer Khorne? Was it because zombie fiction was in vogue? Did the aesthetic change too much with the 8th ed Death Guard? Did wholesome jolly papa nurgle get memed too much?
I can't pin it down
