The Stilt Mechancius model needs to be squatted.
That model is too silly even by 40k silly standards.
Devastators too. Same deal.

I like orks :D

>>97906063
>What needs to be squatted?
Imperial Guard/Astra Militarum.
Get rid of them and the worst players and secondaries disappear instantly.

Something weird that I noticed is that the alphas in the new hastarii are equipped with the main weapon even though the model doesn't appear to carry it. Kinda wish they had a way to include it.

I think I would, not because it's a good model, but because the conversions people come up with create GREAT models. It's the ultimate "convert more" filter.

Traitor Guard Codex when?

File: file.png (997.8 KB)

I am seriously thinking about acquiring a stormraven. I know flyers are shit but GW keeps squatting shit I thought would be cool, like the eldar webway gay as terrain. Flyers are cool I like the models where people replace the dumb see through stand with shit like the canopy of a forest, the side of a building or a mountain cliff like the vehicle is flying over it or launching missiles and shit.

Warhammer isn't 'expensive' in any of the subgames if you're just buying one of the starter boxes- saw a guy on ebay selling the old Wood Elf/sylvaneth box for 65 bucks, 500 points of models- but once you get into the nitty gritty and aren't just buying intercessors or kabalites as footsoldiers and instead more obscure models like a voidraven suddenly you're paying 80 bucks for a single vehicle where you got your third raider used for 30 bucks with no crew except the gunner.

Someone posted the other day that tyranids were a bad army for kitbashes and conversions and all I could think was "what the FUCK?" Nids are one of the best, if not the best army for kitbashing and conversions. Just about every pre-10th edition kit has limbs on balls and sockets so you can mix and match between kits of similar size easily. Those kits pretty much all have a ton of left over bits too which can easily be turned into almost anything you want. Cut off the pieces of a bunch of extra guns and glue them together, or glue them onto the side of a head or onto arm stumps or whatever you want. Turn them into vents or new heads or whatever. The bioengineered monstrosities concept means you can glue basically anything to anything and it'll "work" and it's much easier to green stuff the irregular organic shapes to hide joins and such than it is on regular armoured humanoids.

>>97906376
Incubi prospects have to kill an aspect warrior to get inducted too.

>>97906376
feels more like master asia.

>>97906397
I appreciate the idea but I have a hard enough time telling which claws or penis guns are which. Tyranid designs are so similar that only an eagle-eyed 'nid player would even realize you changed something.
It's like kitbashing Necrons who aren't destroyers, your hands are tied in a lot of ways.

>>97906378

>The bioengineered monstrosities concept means you can glue basically anything to anything and it'll "work" and it's much easier to green stuff the irregular organic shapes to hide joins and such than it is on regular armoured humanoids
kek I don't remember correctly, but didn't the 4th/5th edition codex allow you to basically do this by attaching the arms you want for the traits you want or something?

>>97906423

All of these Ultima color schemes are going to look really awkward once the older faceplates come back into fashion, aren't they?

>>97906457
no?

>>97906421
Well that's the goal of a kitbash or conversion. To have it look seamless like it was always that way.

>>97906461
Yeah that will fit on an angry helmet fine.
I thought I had a point there, oh well.

>>97906397
Yeah I remember thinking the same exact thing, literally one of the most retarded posts ever. Old Tyranid codexes went out of their way to show you how kitbashable all this shit was, not to mention all the old White Dwarf articles when those kits came out with interviews from the creators were literally explicitly saying the nids had been designed with that in mind, like it wasn't already obvious.

best you can hope for is a csm detatchment and some upgrade sprues for HWT / ogryns after they squatted most of the range and left the rest borderline unplayably bad

>>97906441
Because Ratlings cannot become Assassins, the same way they cannot become Astartes or Custodes.

For the record, Assassins are the most rare and most elite of all of those things btw. This makes Space Marine players seethe, not to even mention Custodesfags, but Assassins are even more elite and powerful one-to-one than Custodes.

Remember there are roughly one million Space Marines, there are Ten Thousand Custodes, and there are only a few hundred Assassins per temple, and Assassins can only be unleashed by direct decree of the High Lords they are so valuable and powerful, whereas the other two groups pretty much operate autonomously.

while its been forever since they saw the table, I generally didnt like playing my dark eldar much because most of the games were either win big or lose big.

>>97906718
They're kind of at the whims of chaos I guess. They have no way to recognize, detect, or stop psykers. Most of whom, without training, just become possessed.

>>97906718
They do psyker things.
Most likely get taught to control and use their powers from a young age.
Also they are probably less likely to become daemon portals because Tau society is less stressful than living in some awful shithole underhive of the Imperium where some ganger might just torture, rape and eat you. And not always in that particular order either. And if you ever get discovered, you might get thrown into 1 of the blackships, which is basically just imperial underhive but in space.

>>97906718
We might know if James actually cared about the tau empire to flesh it out properly, but from what we do know they just exist. There is in official writing at least one inquisitor in the gue'vesa ranks, and of course the nicassar are all psykers too.

Well, we're not talking about the Imperium, whom they prey upon the most.

>>97906649
orks, necrons, and tyranids are least. them being so weird and non-human results in them filtering out most people who would attach their ego to their dudes.
custodes, and grey knights are most because they’re super powered humans, so it attracts people who indulge in power fantasies.

Can someone help me find this image? I remember back in either 2020 or 2021, maybe 2022, there was some big ass tournament and an Adeptus Mechanicus player ended up winning the entire thing. They drew chibi versions of the meta armies with a Tech Priest celebrating, Custodes crying, Eldar sad, and I forgot who the fourth one was.

>>97906778
Most GSC shit is just stolen imperium shit, since most GSC specifically infest imperial worlds.
I don't think many people realize that. Or actually think about it.

Also the shit GSC use being just as good as other factions weapons is mainly and mostly a gameplay abstraction. It's just for balance reasons.

>>97906815
Speaking of Adeptus Mechanicus, are they hard to paint? I can't tell because the video I watched of a person painting them made it look like it was as easy as painting a Space Marine and an Eldar.
