Greets /TG/

I've been looking into buying the 40k novels and had some questions about the best order to read them in.

The Lexicanum doesn't have any type of a list on it with a good chronological 'start here' for 40k, and I'm wondering if there's any fan based recommendations for where to get started?

I'm likely going to start with the horus heresy series followed by the IG books, for lack of any better ideas. If anyone has any suggestions or recommendations to throw in about where to start - I'd love to hear it. Thanks.
>>
>>46044206
>ITC commentary
Sorry, what?
House rules with commentary? News and rumors commentary? Sure hope they have a source, otherwise it's just as useless and the WAAC cancer is on the game.
>>
>>46044468
Look at op links.
>>
>>46044468
Read:

Horus Rising
False Gods
Galaxy in Flames

and then see where you want to go from there, you'll understand from a blurb at that point whether a book is way ahead of where you want to be.
>>
>>46044424

Its Inquisition so EVERY IMPERIAL ARMY has access to it for a minimal cost.
>>
>>46044476

If someone suggests playing with or using the ITC rules do you refer to it as shilling for house rules?
>>
>>46044468
There's no point in starting with the HH unless you're interested in it, apart from a few dead but referenced characters, csm bullshit and the reasoning behind some minor 40k factions you won't be missing out on anything for the current times.

For IG start with either the ciaphas cain omnibus or at the beginning of gaunts ghosts, depending on if you want to have fun or some grimdark infantrymen trying their hardest against all the bullshit coming their way.
>>
>>46044571
I would say shilling since house ruling it's an agreement of the whole group, while a single individual suggesting a set of unofficial rules over the other players looks more like a dick move.
>>
>>46044550
Not many take it. Its not like everyone is popping servo skulls for you can't drop/infiltrate there

I actually like the miniatures in your image. It sums up, in my opinion, what happens when you try to take the easy way to power in this setting, you get fucked over. Case in point, it really looks like those traitor marines are getting torn apart by their own weapons more than anything else.

rules ?: I'm making an Inquisition list atm and I'm curious about a shooting phase rule. Looking at the codex, nothing is preventing me from throwing on 2 3-pt storm bolters to my Acolytes for 4 attacks total at 24" range. Checking the shooting rules, though, it says I can only shoot again with a given model with a DIFFERENTLY NAMED weapon.

Does this mean you aren't allowed to have 2 of the same gun, only 2 different guns? Or do you just resolve all the shots from the 2 guns in the same phase?
>>
>>46045745
Oh, herp derp. Didn't read part of the rules. In case anyone was wondering the same thing, you shoot both at the same time.
>>
>>46045745
>>46045774
I'm not sure what you're reading here, I'm sure a model can't shoot more than one weapon per phase unless they're pistols (under the gunslinger special rule) or directly state you can, like as sammaels jetbike does. Care to point out page numbers?
>>

So I've decided to start a Carcharodons army.
The list I'm running (to begin with) looks something like this:

Tyberos the Red Wake: 190 pts
10 man Assault Terminator squad with thunder hammers and storm shields: 450 pts
Relic Sicaran Battle Tank with lascannon sponsons, dozer blade and Schism of Mars: 225 pts
3 Whirlwinds in a squadron: 195 pts

That's the main part. What I'm currently undecided on is what I'm doing for troops.
I want to have some drop pods with Melta units to hammer down on Turn 1 to clear the way for Tyberos and the Termie squad to deepstrike in at a later time, but I'm unsure as to what I want in the pods. If I bring the standard meltadreddies for 100pts each that's quite inexpensive, and I can use two Scout squads to fill out the troops slots. The other way to go is to use two 10 man Tactical squads, each with one Meltagun per unit, plus one Meltadreddy. That way I can combat squad the tacticals, use the melta squads on vehicles while the other two bolter suads detach and try to inflict some hurt on infantry nearby. But would I really need them if I have 3 whirlwinds in my back line, plus deathwind missile launchers on all the drop pods? Plus Tyberos and his squad are going to utterly mutilate whatever they end up charging.

What do you guys think? Two tactical squads and one dreddy? Or two dreddies and two scout squads?

Well you don't want to go and buy a large quantity of plastic you'll never use again right?

Take along the Drone Net formation that gives them extra BS and special rules with Marker Drones, and an Optimized Stealth Cadre if you have the models.

That should still fit in 1850 as has the bonus of still actually being bound.

They have some fast flyers that can drop out units fairly quickly, but a 12-man unit of Warriors won't do much. Immortals with a Cryptek or Lord will fare a lot better at holding anything your flyers go over.
Initiative 2 is awful and you will learn how it feels to be bad at assaults.
On the contrast, Wraiths have more Initiative than they know what to do with and are great at getting into combat and becoming blenders.
Warriors with a independent character and a Ghost Ark are impossible to move.
Your basic guns can wreck any tank. This is not an economical thing and it's often better to shoot at infantry. A massive blob can take down a Chimera, but it'd be better off wiping out a unit of infantry.
Annihilation Barges will make any gunline cry.
Flayed Ones can break hordes open fantastically.
Lychguard can make a very killy Deathstar (big unit of melee FUCKYOU) for your boss.
Deathmarks are a trap.

Formula P3 paints are good, colour range is miniscule though.

Vallejo paints are good, but the Game Colour range is erratic, thicknesses and coverage vary paint to paint in that line. Model Air metallics are good even if you don't own an airbrush.

Army Painter are decent, but their colour range is lacking. They have plenty of coloured spray primers though, and their inks are good shades.

Reaper has a pretty huge selection of paints, but their paints flow weirdly. Metallics are garbage, but the range is good for auxiliaries like flow improver or drying retarder.

Only other one I can think of are Coat D'Arms which are okay I guess? Their metallics are trash and their washes stain like crazy.

Oh, and Warcolours are cheap as chips, but you really do get what you pay for, they don't cover well and particularly poorly over black.

There is no good and cheap acrylic miniature paint. There's SLIGHTLY CHEAPER, but you won't find dirt cheap paint that's not super thick or super watery hobby store garbage.

Even the "cheap" modeling hobbies like historicals, military scale models, and Japanese plastic kits use paints that are almost as expensive as Citadel and the same brands as everyone else. Tamiya, Vallejo, MIG, Scalecolor, etc.

Curse of the Wulfen happens before the Dark Crusade, you degenerate. Their reasons suppose to be similar to the Wolves sacking of the Thousand Sons planet.

Considering that at the end of the timeline which is during the 13th Black Crusade, the Wolves are in Cadia system and have been assigned the command of the Imperial forces there, AND that they are high fiving Dark Angels there, The Wolves will survive Curse of the Wulfen and will have no grudges with the Dark Angels.

Before the 13th Black Crusade*

I need to hammer this point because anons on this board tend to be dumb as bricks.

Curse of the Wulfen, Shield of Baal, Damocles, Valedor, Damnos, and all these campaign events are "not advancing the lore". They still happen in 41K before the 13th Black Crusade or during.

They are just filler campaigns and their results ultimately inconsequential because anyone who is not a degenerate and read the lore would know their results at a glance.

The Tau will not be destroyed and Khan will not die as he will return to do battle with Huron the Blackheart.

Maybe it's a bad example since the Tau did not have plenty of fluff about what they were doing in the final year of the setting but still the events of the Damocles trilogy did not "advance the lore".

Sure, if you only consider all Lore as a single entity and only consider the farthest part of some lore to be the farthest part for all lore. Frankly, that's dumb.

What anons mean by advancing the lore is moving towards 42K and DA END TIMES. Don't pretend that you don't know that.

With that in mind, these events are not advancement towards anything and are like I said inconsequential. They serve only to fill holes in the timeline and explore the stagnant setting.

Shield of Baal? We knew the Blood Angels will fail to stop the Tyranids because we have lore about them being sandwitched by Daemons and Tyranids in 999 41K.

Curse of the Wulfen? We know that Wolves will be found innocent and that they will survive as they are on Cadia and are the heroes of the Imperium's darkest hour

Damnos? The Ultras victory was known because at the end of timeline Calgar, Cato, and a Ultramarines (which are in good condition) are fighting against M'kar daemonic hordes.

Valedor? The galaxy hasn't ended so we know the Eldar were going to win.

If we remove these events, they would have zero impact on the setting's major plotlines.

Yes. Though, it was a shot in the dark.

And like I said, the Tau did not have fluff about what they were doing in the very end of the timeline.

Now lets move on to a better example. Logan, Ragnar, Ulric are on Cadia by the end of the setting. Ragnar is super friendly with the Dark Angels there. Are you going to claim that they are going to die in Curse of Wulfen and the Space Wolves will get destroyed like all these anons in previous threads.

>‘The Sky Warriors will not be cowed by you,’ said the astropath, the strength of his words marred by the tremors in his voice. ‘They will come and finish what my lord started.’

>‘Oh?’ Lucius replied, tilting his head. ‘Well, that certainly saves me the effort of going to them, does it not? Still,’ he spread his arms, gesturing to the walls of the Space Wolves vessel around them, ‘it would seem wasteful not to make use of this ship. They are expecting the return of heroes in triumph, but how might they receive me in the halls of their mountain bastion? Your lords do so love surprises.’

>The thought shivered over Lucius’ mind. An obsession that had consumed him for nearly a century. The chance to duel one who had endured the millennia he and his fallen kindred had spent in exile. A singular warrior, now their ancient Wolf King. Lucius had crossed paths with the Fell-Handed in the years of the Great Crusade, and there were no others save the false Emperor himself that still drew breath from that time.

>He would strike a blow so severe that they would have no choice but to rouse Bjorn to face him. And he would use this ship to do it.

>The subterfuge rankled Lucius, but a pleasure postponed made it all the more satisfying at its climax. He would spill blood over the snow of their mountain citadel. He would succeed where a primarch had failed. Lucius shuddered, savoring the cloying blasphemy of the thought.

>But to do so, he would need to bleed the defenses of Fenris white. When they were isolated and desperate, with their fleets burning, Lucius would have the contest he so craved.

>‘Now,’ Lucius purred. ‘Scream out into the stars, little herald of Fenris.’ The Eternal leaned forward in the throne. Cupping the man’s head in one clawed hand, Lucius grinned as he savoured the horror wracking the stricken astropath.

And it will be Lucius the Eternal who will kill the ancient cur.
