40K seems fun and I love space king and the lore tidbits I get here and there
Be honest with me, since 40k is rather social, are the people like the ones on reddit, like from what I get from the setting it’s not a “they are making fun of you chud” thing, it’s just an overall cool setting, over the top grim dark, like because I sometimes go on the space king sub reddit to see news about the show the shitty grim dank dubredit thing appears and it seems insufferable, I genuinely don’t think they understand the setting and are copping about something, it’s not the nazis or something, it’s just grimdark or something like that, it’s rule of cool

I know it's just a personal preference and there's lore reasons for it but I find the Auxillia kit to be too gaudy for me. Might pick one up and outfit it in brass and navy blues instead of gold though, could work.

Where does one go specifically to start looking for metal recasters?
I’m looking for a lot of metal guard models.
Like the metal ones of pic related.
>>
I love rhino's, and anything with treads, which is why I was fucking livid to find out that prime beef marines can't ride in them. Instead we get the gay ass anti-grav impulsor and other anti-grav bullshit. I hate anti-grav tech so much that it should have been excluded from 40k entirely as lost tech.
>>
>>97491183
I know blm does metal recasts.

Do they take suggestions and follow through?
>>
>>
>>97491208
they've dropped a lot of their metal stuff, its just too expensive vs resin.

>>97491183
I tend to get bootlegs, like actual ones from friends that have the old metal models and we do the casts ourselves. I know that doesn't help but its pretty common if you start getting into the old/mid-hammer communities.

>>
>>97491222
I understand why lads go after resin these days.
But I’m quite sure there were some metal models that never got a resin-fine cast rendition so that’s why I am primarily after metals.

Unless there is some kind of definitive list of all the finecast products I usually go after metals instead as a first choice.

Also I want “backup metals” because there was an incident at the lgs where a sperg grabbed and broke a guy’s model once when I went shopping on a tournament day.
The store banned the sperg and ordered a new model for the guy but I am still rattled after seeing such a thing.

brood brothers tank?
>>
>>97491247
Same. I thought it was harmless dumb fun like those classic Lego brick films on YouTube.
I think the problem is that it appealed to teenage autists and because of that they just were themselves which is why the fans were insufferable.
I’m sure I was no different about something else.
Like RWBY if I had to guess.
I did ponder RWBY x Warhammer 40k crossovers.

Remember the rwby x ferrus manus crack shipping?
I think someone made a berserk edit where it peaked.

>>97491205
I don't have marines outside of the starter set Infernus bois, but fuck me if I'm not tempted to get a land raider whenever I pop through the shop. The shape is so fuckin good. I like the gladiator lancer tho, even if it doesn't feel like it fits.
>>
>>97491254
I think the ones I am after are most likely in demand.
Especially the guard. As far as guard metal models I know of there really wasn’t many bad metal models for the imperial guard.

I can only think of the wounded cadian for the command squad. That was a pointless model only to waste metal.
>>
>>97491205
Do you know how easy it is to convert impulsors and repulsors to be treaded

>>
>>97491280
Come to think of it if i ever see someone looking for metal models in buy swap sell groups its usually guard
>>
>>97491301
Yeah. I’m not sure why this is so, but I did a web search and apparently the finecast list of guard models is small.

Thought the missionaries/preachers would get the finecast and/or resin treatment but I’m not sure anymore.
I think the finecast list should be expanded to what metal models got the resin treatment too.
>>
>>97490725
Whichever would be impractical/impossible for the mon'keigh to replicate. Drips not drip if everyones got it

The models are built around anti-grav so even the modifications and printed files to make them have treads all look entirely out of place.

You ever wonder whether gw is gonna start milking the marine piggies again by making a “primaris Nihilus” version of the marine armies?
>primaris power armor with previous MKs jury rigged
>anti-grav replaced with treads
Not sure what else they’d do but the general justification could be supply line issues in the Nihilus. I’ve had this thought in my noggin for quite a bit.

I never liked scout marines. They were a mistake then and now and their derivatives are a mistake too.

That model is cool but even cheap ones on ebay are like 60 bucks kek. Would be easier if GW would release a catachan kill team or something to avoid buying the old soon to be squatted models. Or wargames atlantic but I don't like their aesthetic as much, but I guess GW will (somehow) fuck up the catachan refresh.

>I'm hoping with the Vyper pilot looking like a Ranger it heralds in a Ranger focused Alaitoc detachment
Both rangers and corsairs are followers of the outcast path, both are Anhrathe so logically they would benefit from the same detachment and keywords.
>>
so will gw allow primaris to use land raiders or will they simply phase out non-primaris completely, making it so that land raiders are only useful as a legends unit so that chaos marines use older looking land raiders while space marines use repulsives and impulsives.
>>

>>
>>97491349
I hate to say, I would probably be a pay piggy for this stuff. My homebrew chapters lore is build around having a lack of access to newer tech. All the vehicles I have, with the exception of the single impulsor, are all treaded. I bought a predator over a gladiator purely based on my liking for treads over anti-grav, regardless of how well it fares on the table.

I’ve said it before and the space wolf blood claws is kind of doing this.
I mean some of the legs don’t even have the primaries kneepads and look like hh beaky legs a bit.

And pic related the grey hunters are I think the first primaris space marines to feature regular looking boltguns that aren’t on their scout variants.
>bolt rifles replaced by boltguns due to boltguns needing less material and bad supply lines in Nihilus.

I have a feeling that geedubs is holding back on such a Nihilus variant release until the Horus heresy armor marks are all covered.
At least if they are planning for such a release.
That’s a big if too.

So there is a small chance that GW is testing the waters.
So if you are planning on having your dudes like this then it is best to have to your dudes use space wolf rules I think. I don’t play marines.

Or maybe gw already knows their marine following wants this and are quietly giving them that for the ones that would notice and want such a homebrew chapter.

What do Harlequins do in their down time? I mean, I'm sure they practice their plays and martial combat both. But recreationally.

>>97491513
It's the breaka boy with knucklebustas.
>>
>>97491482
Think of Harlequins as people who live in luxury space communism but are emotional unsatisfied at the status quo. Every physical and material comfort is offered to them. Sex, good food, great entertainment. Yet they are still motivated to save their people. And not just 'their' people as craftworlders or Commorrites. But the whole eldar species. Harlequins are eldar terrorists who are self radicalised into being true believers that there is a path to save their race. Sure they might got recruited by a solitaire and nudged along but every single Harlequin is a true believer and not a brainwashed manipulated young person like a lot of irl terrorist org recruits. These guys are true hardliners who believe in their cause.

So what do they do in their free time? They read in the Black Library (the based one) to further understand the setting better than anyone else in-universe and train. Since Harlequin are to baseline eldar was space marines are humans, and most Harlequins are in a league above custodes. And of course like any terrorist organisation they try to spread the word about their motivations and beliefs. They are right, their enemies are wrong and they will never stop trying to convince anyone open minded enough to listen of this fact.
>>
>>97491476
A little scrolling up will show a post about how an anon said it seems that most metal mini collectors are guard players.

Would it be a bit out of place for heavy weapons teams to be made of a spotter and then a guardsman holding a heavy weapon like pic related?
Or is that too “unrealistic” in 40k standards like that LOTR BMW meme?

I know there is that one catachan sergeant who was the special exception but there were also rogue trader models that shoulder mounted their heavy weapons.
With the exception of mortars of course. I think.

Wasn’t there a joke of backflipping terminators back on 1d4chan when that site still lived?

Not sure what the “backflipping terminator” of the imperial guard would be. I was thinking of a cohesive regiment that isn’t broken up and resembles the 30k imperial army/solar auxilia but maybe not. So maybe a fleet based guard regiment?

I know the biggest jobbers in 40k are the planetary defense forces. They always fail and need the guard or the space marines so maybe that might count?

To be fair I’ve had lgs goers say the same about using warhammer Reddit.
When they talk about why it is how redditors paint models in gay color patterns to farm upvotes and generally an atmosphere of inauthenticity due to not wanting to be downvoted.

As for the other forums like bolterandchainsword and Dakkadakka I’m not too sure about their communities.

Way to remind me of how gw got involved with fan animators.
I was on an autistic quest to find the 3d models sodaz used when he made his 40k animations when I learned he was using SFM that is known for porn animations/fnaf/and tf2.

I had plans to make a gachimuchi locker room parody where it is the iron warrior and imperial fist van darkholme.

>”hey look buddy I think you got the wrong door, the scat fetishist club isn’t working blocks down”
>”fuck you”
>”fuck you masochist man…”
>que rest of warhammer 40k but gachi lines
>”I’ll show you who’s boss of this fortress”
>que loads of grunting and fighting

Not gonna lie if some autist archived those models I’d love to have them to archive and save them. They are modified vidya assets but heavily modified and others were straight up made from scratch I think. I found some but not all of them sadly. Probably can’t get them to work anyways.

Also I know this is schizo but I think I saw some of those models or at least one being used in the Warhammer Plus Angels of Death animated series.
Like it looked way too similar but then again the graphical fidelity of Angels of Death seems deliberately dumbed down to look like a slightly better SFM if the Helsreach animation guy was involved.

What type of cheese does /yourdudes/ like?
>>
>>97491747
Understandable.
I didn’t like it that much in my pre-teens and teen years because too much content was pumped out by kids somehow making animations and the amount of attention they got over other animations annoyed me to no end.

Who is to say that maybe warhammer is now the in thing among the autistic kids and teens and fan works of 40k get too much attention over more deserving content makers?

Maybe that was why the 3d warhammer 40k files for the animations were not dispersed more openingly out of fear of over saturation.

But it doesn’t matter now as GW seems to have killed 40k fan animations. Or at least killed the motivation to make them in the eyes of many would be animators.

All of the primarchs are coming back. Even the ones that shouldn’t.
The Warp will be involved as the warp is the “do whatever I want” plot device since the inception of 40k lore.
Right now GW seems to be releasing the primarchs that are the best candidates for returning at the moment. I think they’re going in a weird order of which primarch requires the least amount of lore-explanation/retcons to do so.
>guilliman got revived
>lion wakes up
>primarchs that disappeared just come back just because and big story is behind it

Sanguinius and Ferrus Manus will take the most amount of lore bending explaining.

Conrad Kurze will come back too because gw need money.

I very vaguely remember a tutorial about warhammer fantasy ogre leadbelchers getting an auto cannon conversion. I am not sure if it was white dwarf or not.

I am now thinking of a multi laser ogryn. Essentially carrying an ogryn sized version of that one navy breacher’s heavy multi laser.

>>97491902
I’m pretty sure that an ogryn heavy weapon team proxy as a regular guard heavy weapons squad regardless would be a case of “modeling for disadvantage” through rule of cool intentions so it might be alright.

thats all of 40k. its very much gone from R, whizzed past PG - 13 and gone into PG in a lot of media. Not all, but stuff like SM2 is actually very tame.

Look anon. I prefer some pre-8th edition stuff too, but that’s ridiculous.
They’re still armored guys that are equipped with big guns and blades and some of those blades are loud chain swords that declare there will be violence.

As for the edge being filed off I can see that.
Slaanesh’s usual stuff especially in the sexual part is toned down.
At least I hope not but I think it is.
I don’t know all the reasons but someone’s gotta take a page from the 120 Days of Sodom or some other dark media of equal or darker imagination and take notes and put it into 40k.

What other stuff has been toned down lately anyways?

code is a term from languistics meaning a set of words, mannerisms and symbols that constitute a "code" that is signals belonging to a particular group. The original study focused on carribean immigrants in NYC who could "code-switch" between white passing mannerisms and english and accented and slang heavy english with loan words from french and spanish. It spread to black twitter from linguistic academia, and from there it spread to general pop culture with discussions like "Knuckles the Hedgehog and Piccolo the Namekian are black coded".

No it doesn't. In fact, I have multiple players who qualified for LVO in my LGS and they are the most casual friendly players in the store always tailoring their lists to their opponents for fair games and willing to teach newfags. And this is the norm in multiple cities I've played in. That kind of faggotry hasn't been in casual play since 7th edition.

>>97492202
The successors are made from original geneseed.
Also, the Imperium and Mechanicus specifically collect geneseed from all marine chapters as tax, so the said geneseed can specifically be used to either create new chapters or reinforce pre-existing ones.

Also all marine chapters have 100s of scout marines within the scout company because the scout company has no actual limit to its numbers. The 1000 marine limit just means regular battle brothers.
And all most of these scouts just need their black carapace to be made into a "full"marine.

I don't think people understand how closely interrelated the chapters were after the second founding.

Stop watching loretube slop.
Pic rel, the best of Catachan, fights with poison, traps and sneaking around.
Catachans are tough by human standards, but they are mostly sneaky fucks who uses the environment and traps. They cant solo a Nob. They'd lure him into a trap, ambush his stuck ass, then shower him in grenades.
Its like saying Solid Snake can punch a hole in a tank because he solos a Metal Gear (by sabotaging it beforehand and using tons of explosives).

>>97492253
I mean why can't do both? Old Catachan codex from 3rd had with WS4 same as marines and the veteran Catachans triple wield weapons (lasguns, laspistol and close combat weapon).
Considering Orks in this Edition had S3, T4 and I2. A Catachan with WS4 would hit first and more often and a veteran one would have enough attacks to at least kill one ork.
IG with WS4 and 2A could kill more things than you think in this edition. Give them a power weapon and marines started falling left and right some times.

Not really, orks are more or the "hit it till it dies" type of fighters. Yeah, they aren't above throwing dirt in your eye, but 90% of the time they are too stupid to even do that.

Because there is a precesent within the fluff where many Iron Warriors during the Heresy stayed with the Imperium and precisely abandoned the traitors.

Also IW as a legion are one of the few legions who largely abhorred their primarch and hated him. So IW who went "rogue" and either joined the loyalists or became blackshields over time very easily could have become loyalist chapters that descend from the loyalost elements of IW.
Also we do have Minotaurs who are 100% confirmed to be descended from the IW.

>how do they make Imperial Fists actually unique?
The only things they actually have going for them are the fact they have successor chapters more popular than them and a defence protocol/occasional rite where they call all successors together

So I think their codex supplement shouldn't be about them but about all sons of dorn and heavily emphasize a combined arms force

dark angels have deathwing, ravenwing and greenwing, blood angels have death company, golden boys and red boys, the imperial fists will have templars, crimsons and yellow mooks (among others)

yeah, which is what the fist current gene seed is, they're a mutt of thier successor geneseed because they got dunked on by a few orks.

I thought the Fists had a Prussian motif to them at least during the HH not sure if it is still featured in 40k.
I’m okay with being corrected if I am wrong.

I know Ultramarines metaphorically beat us on the head with their Roman Empire motif.

i have a lot of space marines, but no plan. i just assumed i'd fuck up a kit, so i started buying twos of kits. primary, first born, old HH, nu HH.

2k years of diviation still happened, just look at dog breeds and what 100 years can do to them even when they start out as the same breed.
Its why space marines always treat other chapters as cousins, because even if they share the same gene father they are still far enough apart that there's is both a cultural and genetic difference.

I like them the way they are. Literally brick walls that do their job and build forts, I just wish they had more defense stuff like more shields, more bulky armor, more construction equipment.

Any other traits of the IW being popular among that crowd?
You’d think something like the death guard or the sons of Horus or world eaters would be more popular.

Or are the Iron Warriors really the most popular traitor legion and it isn’t actually the Black Legion or the Word Bearers?

I think ADB made his wife’s homebrew canon and they are allegedly Sons of Horus successors. Despite ADB seeming to have an intense hatred for the concept of traitor legion descended chapters.
If I had to guess why it is probably because he didn’t get to be the first to put them into BL or Blood Ravens came first BR really are of the Thousand Sons.
>>
>>97492443
The Fist and their successors are some of the most tight knit of any founding chapter and successors. They refer to each other as brothers and fellow sons of Dorn then cousin. Cousins are for other legions from another Primarch.

Essential Nihilus works hold out on the faith that help might be coming.
Without out the access to the light of the astronomicom travel is hindered greatly, and with that also astopathic communication is also more susceptible to daemonic tampering.
To be faithful to the emperor in the imperium nihilus is to be truly faithful in the emperor, because even when all light is gone you have faith that he angels are still coming to aid you.

>>97492405
>The only things they actually have going for them are the fact they have successor chapters more popular than them and a defence protocol/occasional rite where they call all successors together
I was thinking of something similar. Once they bring back Dorn, he would start this meme protocol. Functionally it would let you field him no matter if you play Imperial Fists, Crimson Fists, Black Templars, Retributors or others. And you would get to share some units across IF descendent chapters and have a reason to paint some of your units in colors of different chapters.
Fists themselves would get some Gravis and Bolter focus, with one unique unit at least.

I've been reading this and it's pretty fun. Really has a cyberpunk noir vibe to it.

Essential they's either be wandering crusaders, take resources from the world's they protect or conquer, or they'd be stalwart protectorates of a sector, think dow2 campaign, fighting tooth and nail to protect their sector of the galaxy and inturn having them resupply them, which could allow expeditions into the darkness.
At the end of the day resources wouldn't something spent lightly, making everything last is a necessity so seeing old and repaired gear would be common place.

They are masochist that love pain and punishment to the point where their Chaplains preach about pain being their salvation and guiding light. They also unironically worship Dorn more then the Emperor. The Fist actively seek out being punished if they do something wrong like that time where one Captain (i forgot his name) got put in a coma after fighting a war against the Tau and even though they won the battle, he felt bad he didn't participate more and asked the Chapter Master to send him on a penitent crusade, Chapter Master told him "no" because that's retarded since he didn't do anything wrong.

Its been a while so don't take my word as gospel but pretty much their was a real bad warpstorm or civil war that mordian faced, and pyskers pretty much proved their worth to such and extent that they're now held in high regard on mordia.
That sounds like a pretty good gig if you're a psyker, but it also means that mordians see you as a shield against the dark and they're routinely used on the very front lines.

That's part intentional. As a matter of doctrine they try to avoid getting entangled in planetary politics or adopting the cultural affectations of any locality. They don't want to become the administrators or warlords of any one planet if they can help it. Being nondescript is sort of the point.

>I thought most guard regiments had a world they based themselves on.

since 1990. Military elements on the planet are PDF (Planetary Defence Force) which has both active and reserve components. A guard regiment is raised to fight in galactic wars. They are transported by Navy elements, who are in fact a fleet. When the fighting is done they go back to their transports and immediately head off to the next battlefield. If they are on their homeworld in an offensive or defensive action its a coincidence. The are tithed, and rarely (but sometimes do) get to retire back home. PDF are generally equipped and trained less than actual Guardsmen.

Their brick walls in a sense that they'll defend one spot for months even if the battle is very, very clearly lost. Fist are so stubborn that instead of doing the normal thing where most marines will cut their loses and leave, they'll stay and fight until the last man is dead. That's why they always pad out their scout company since so many die because of this specifically.

No I meant most guards regiments had a world they hail from.
I’m talking about a guard regiment that doesn’t have a world from the start. Either because world was destroyed like Cadia or some other stuff but the regiment keeps going on.

I was envisioning a fleet based regiment that goes world to world fighting battles and taking recruits usually the rejects that nobody wants like convicts and hastily making them soldiers for the imperial meat grinder from world to world.
But now I’m wondering if this was the way from the 1990s.

>>
>>97492648
That also informs another thing that's a little peculiar about them: they're more process-oriented than marines often are. One thing they learned from Dorn and which is still referenced is that they believe it's important how victory is achieved, not just to achieve it by whatever means necessary. Contrast to something like the Iron Hands' so-called "Calculus of Battle" where the point is only to kill the enemy as quickly as possible and with as little resource-expenditure as possible, and collateral loss of human life is not factored in. That's being extremely goal-oriented. But the IF believe the methods and means for achieving victory also factor into the result, and that any armed struggle is a test of opposing ideologies as well as martial strength.
>>
>>97492723
Kind of.
I had a whole thing about hypno indoctrination for regular humans for getting those types of hive gangers to convicts of varying offense to become decent soldiers and all that but it feels a little weird finding out everything you thought was cool and perhaps even had a semblance of originality and maybe even creativity was already done and is the standard.
Better I find out now than later though.
>>
>>97492733
Impossible. Dorn doesn't know what jokes are..
>>
>>97492716
Sounds like Penal Legions, which are absolutely a thing. You don't need them to have a dedicated fleet though. You can just have a guard regiment that is a penal legion that recruits from any prisons they can. When they visit a new system they requisition as many prisoners as they can to replenish their losses.

Look up regiments like the Sevlar chem dogs and the last chancers.

Also regular regiments will replenish casualties for whomever they can.

>No I meant most guards regiments had a world they hail from.
>I’m talking about a guard regiment that doesn’t have a world from the start. Either because world was destroyed like Cadia or some other stuff but the regiment keeps going on.
A regiment with its homeworld destroyed doesn't behave any different than a regiment with its world of origin still intact.

The fleet they travel on doesn't belong to their planet, it belongs to the imperial navy, the equipment they wield doesn't belong to their planet, it belongs to the munitorum, they don't have any say in where they're deployed, they're quite literally just cargo that gets shipped from warzone to warzone, with the planet of origin delivering a periodic tithe of soldiers as separate regiments that then get shipped separately to other warzones.
But the homeworld getting destroyed doesn't mean anything for the tithes of regiments that are already being shipped around.

Thanks guys. I appreciate it. Genuinely I do.

I guess in a silly way I got my weird wish of my homebrew guard regiment not being special in any degree as I never aimed for them to be a unique concept that ever tried to stand out but could be shared and redone each with a different take on it among other guard players.

I wanted them to fit into the universe well and I think I got that.
I never aimed for them to be special just another drab group of nobodies that are on borrowed time. Maybe I should have expected this.

The only gripe I have at the moment is that I am a little disturbed at the idea that as I said above my stuff that I thought had a semblance of originality or even creativity probably never had any to begin with but was instead standard.

It makes me wonder whether my other “creative writing” notes will have the same problem and worse without knowing it I am “rewriting” something already done in a very popular and well known other thing.
Kind of like how the some of the Votann infantry look like Starcraft Terran Marines with Nordic stuff tacked on and squished shorter.

It hurts a little but it is a pain one needs to feel from time to time. I wouldn’t have gotten this if I tried reddit as they’d just seal clap and say empty praises out of fear of not getting precious upvotes. After something like the realization would hurt worse.

Thanks again guys.

>>
>>97492818
if you wanted to push that angle into a new direction I guess you could start by world building the fleet before world building the regiment.

Say for example, for whatever reason, there was a fleet of imperial mercantile ships that traversed back and forth and what we can imagine being a "big imperial interstellar highway", instead of trucks you have cargo ships travelling together in that safe route, and instead of stuff taking days or weeks the route takes months or years and it never truly stop for long before going back the other way and starting the route again.

We can imagine this fleet growing enough in number, due to the practicality of the route, that the imperium formally classifies them as a planet and starts expecting them to pay a tithe of soldiers, goods and psykers, as normal planets do.

so you would have this immense non military fleet, with enough of a population that lives and dies on these ships, to start having their own defensive fleet defense jobs, and from those selecting men to become a regiment that will then be shipped to some distant warzone, or if they're lucky they become part of the imperial military escort for the mercantile fleet.

no planet ever, still a regiment that doesn't break out of the bounds into snowflake territory, but they've got their quirky origins that might shape their internal culture as being even more used to moving from place to place or specialising in void engagements and boarding actions.

Anon, I’ve been working on lore and a scheme for a custom chapter and experienced something similar.

No, because I like them and in my mind they are still mine. Stop caring what others think and hobby for yourself!

It's Edge who does that. We know that because he used to spam his EC marines, all having similiar iPhone filenames.
But one time he posted a picture of a gay bara incest primarch porn, which lo and behold had a similiar filename as the EC marines.
Also he did show up in /aco/ once whinging over how people "sand off the personality" when it comes to female primarchs.
In reality he just hates it because it ruins his homosexual fantasies, since all the gay primarch bara porn is just "off-personality" too.

If you go back by a year or two the threads rarely hit image limit so often.
Now they reach image limit almost every time and it's due to porn.
And again if you by the archives the porn ramps up especially near the end of the thread to reach the image limit and then make a porn OP as the next thread.

Now notice how the porn spam in this thread stopped the moment some fag beat the would be gooner throoder by early throoding himself, and how that makes anon start seething in both.

usually it's just a model the store has a limited amount of that they're allowed to sell (full price of course) only during the store's own anniversary

the chaos dwarf they're selling now has a threshold of purchases you have to make before they give that to you (free, allegedly), but he's not a normal anniversary model, he gets sold during a specific period that's not necessarily the store's anniversary

With some appropriate basing, swapped weapons, and assumptions about systems that have been either upgraded or remain damaged, you could use Solar Leontus or the Ogryn Bodyguard, depending on if the noble in question is piloting the suit themselves or is using it as a personal praetorian.
