Let's make the most of April Fools. Make a Legion/Imperial Army/Mechanicum character out of your name.
>>46390212
Col Ton'Kni. RG character. Does anyone see the +(You) this post on here?

That's for upvoting. We Reddit now.
Also Hernandez sounds like one of Polux's Imperial Fists Veterans who would later found the Crimson Fists.

Your art sucks Blanche.
>>46391101
There should be only one 9 man squad of reavers.
Herald goes with the 9 man squad.
Horus and the medicae with one Justaerin squad.
Abaddon with another.

Martian death rays are cool, what legion makes the most out of them?
>>46390193
This is maddening.>>46390193
>>46391577
Iron hands Immortals in Spartans, probably.
>>46391600
You have to equip them with Volkite Chargers though.
>>46391705
No Legion unit comes stock with CHOOM.
>>46391737
Just wanted to add it.
Might be the guy asking doesn't know.
There is also a rite of war that makes them troops, so...fun galore.
>>46391060
Alpha op? Im playing them and i only think they are meh
>>46391771
Company of bitter Iron with two squads of volkite immortals in spartans and a big tank with castraman orr in it.
I can smell the cheese from here....
>>46391737
Lernaens
Who also get conversion beamers
>>46391771
No prob.
There is indeed, so is there one to make Reavers (Maloghurst as well) for SoH and Terror Marines for NL and I was seriously considering an army based on exotic weapons such as Volkite, Conversion Beamers and other non-standard tech. Shame the Dark Angels are left out of this club, at least for the time being.
>>46391858
Ah, I forgot about them, my bad. I can see a nice PotL force now.
>>46391858
>Who also get conversion beamers
Why would you do that?
Why would you ever play Night Lords when Raven Guard exists?

>>46392122
Romanum Spaceromanus (Ultramarines)
>>46392070
Because you fuck tanks on the other side of the board rather than that 3-man tacs nearby.
>>46392179
Conversion Beamers don't seem right on a unit that wants to get in close...
>>46390212
Rolling for my name.
>>46392155

>>46392151

>>46392325
Why would you ever play Ultramarines when Word Bearers exists.
>>46392325
"Exist"
>>46391101
Very fluffy but probably in need of work.
You really don't need 3 units of Justaerin, it's an awkward number to work with. Horus will pull one into Deep Strike, Abadoon the second, but the third is stuck walking. You're also wasted the Primus if he's only protecting 8 where he could be helping 12.
I'd cut the third squad and use the points to bump both of the others up to 12. I'd also drop the Multi-Meltas and instead buy a shitload of Combi's.
Reavers, those Anvillus are expensive and going to get the units killed. You're throwing 30 models upfield with no support at 3500pts; they'll get one-rounded.
You're better off dropping the Pods, replacing them with Jump Packs, and again investing the saved points into bodies and Combi's.
This might well cost you the Herald as he can't fly. DESU you're better with a second Primus or Forgelord.
You're at the mercy of Spartans and Typhons, but I don't think you can really fix that without breaking the theme,
>>46391821
Their especial rule is dumb tho. I'd like to sweep Advance stuff rather than snap fire at them, even if it's volkite
Also, my name is a moritat
>>46392404
While I agree with some of what you are saying.
jump packs save you only 50 pts per unit. More if you merge the units. You're going to be equally, if not more, fragile starting on foot on the other side of the table. If deep striking you have less control over when they arrive.
>>46392258
Conversion beamers are better than volkite at all ranges, and it allows learnean to be dangerous even beyond their usual range
>>46392459

>>46392567
Also whoever thinks that naming their kid "Kelvin Chung" is ok needs to get raped.
>>46390688
>>46392459
If you're running them like that, I'd question why you're even using Reavers at all over Veterans. Reavers exist for Jump Packs, 15-strong, Combis and Outflank; if you aren't using at least one of those, they're objectively inferior.
Consider that for 10pts *cheaper* per squad, you'd be getting:
> Scoring
> Sniper, Furious Charge or Tank Hunter
The way they're being run, the single benefit they are providing is Precision Strike at the cost of Rending, FC, Scoring and the like.
Fluff demands Reavers, but if you're taking them I'd at least optimise them.
>>46392567
CBeamer's uses are circumstancial, no doubt about it, but it functions pretty much the same way a Reaper AC works for regular termies
>>46392607
>Compulsory raping
Guys, I found a Dark Eldar
>>46392627
I wouldn't pod them in either. Jump pack+(combi)bolter is way too cool. If you want to pod in a unit with combi plasma make it the Justaerin.
>>46392607
Shut up Dora.
Why aren't you playing best legion?

The Chaos Gods are like that. Daemonic lore is probably nothing but a bunch of garbage, fanfiction, or the diaries of daemons.

Question. When using a trait or ability that affects "one unit" of your choice, if one of your IC is attached to that unit before the game begins, does the trait/ability affect them both?
>>46393956
Are chainaxes free?

>>46393975
Hush now.
>>46393956
No, an IC is a unit on its own and the earliest it can join another unit is during deployment.
Certain universal special rules, like scout, can be conferred from IC to unit and vice versa, once joined but that's all you get.

Guys, I am looking to give my White Scars praetor the most bitching bike ever, an absolute monster of a vehicle that shows he loves tinkering with his ride.
Unfortunately, the dick bikes don't really confer this and the outriders are too dainty.

Does anyone know how I could build a bitching monster of a ride for my praetor?

Can anyone tell me if Raven guard librarians painted their armour blue before the council of nikea?
>>46394537
No they painted it nigger nut brown.
>>46394537
Not to my knowledge. I'm pretty sure apothecaries didn't paint their armour white either. Chaplains do have different colourings I believe, but I might be wrong.
Would it be retarded to use a lightning claw to represent a paragon blade?
My gut feeling says it would be confusing.
>>46394706
My stance, as always, is:
With mates, sure.
With randomers, probably not.
>>46394537
It's generally accepted that the blue, black, red and white schemes for librarians, chaplains, techmarines and apothecaries is a Codex Astartes thing influenced by GC/pre-heresy markings. For example Blood angels had Wardens which were proto-chaplains designed to watch out for use of psychic powers after the edict and they were coloured black, BA apothecaries were standard red though. Some legions had different coloured specialists as well.
The proper answer to any HH colour scheme question is that it's really up to you.
>>46394706
What this guy >>46394721 says, depends who you play with.
>>46394706
Paragon Blades are described as coming in any shape or size, but always exotic.
>>46392122
May as well roll, see if I get something persian-sounding enough.

Bah, who wants to be best? I know my legion (and primarch) fucked up, but I love them anyway.Is this how night lords players feel?For that matter, is this how ork players feel?

>>46394977
No we did not.
>>46395049
proofs
Will be playing NL vs. DG and/or Salamanders match on weekends. Any tips?
>>46394977
Why did the Night Lords do what they did, and why did Curze hate them so much?
Honest question here. I find them interesting but I know fuck all about them.
Plus they fight like my DnD character, so naturally I might start them eventually.
Picture is fan made, but I am pretty partial to it.
>>46395111
They were supposed to bring justice but nostraman recruits were nothing but criminals. The legion was fucked and Curze hated them for it.
>>46395134
So why did they torture and maim specifically?
I would get if they just started killing indiscriminately like World Eaters, but they were very exact in their methods. Physical and psychological torture was what they did.
Why?
>>46395092
Forget it, I'm stupid. This world actually does deserve a visit by the Night Lords.
>>46395160
It was means to an end at first, to make worlds compliant through fear. Ultimately it became an end unto itself as the legion was filled with degenerates from Nostramo.
>>46395111
Even their Terran recruits were weird bunch. Some kind of Underdark LN/LE Drows but with pale as hell skin. They even had a light sensitivity.

They were the psy ops legion at first and their planet was filled with bad people, so you add the two above points together and you begin to think flaying pits and broadcasting a live torture feed planet wide are good ideas.
>Perhaps unsurprisingly, Sul and the Night Lords fled and left the Iron Warriors to fend for themselves. Sul reasoned that they were many times outnumbered, and the Night Lords best weapon, terror, was useless against the Greenskins. The Iron Warriors put up a vicious fight, killing tens of thousands of Orks in the halls of their ships over the next several hours. However sheer greenskin numbers were taking their toll, and one by one each Iron Warriors ship was overwhelmed. The Night Lords used the distraction provided by the Iron Warriors to launch a series of hit-and-run raids on the Ork fleet, eventually managing to turn on the Space Hulks rear and board a landing party. Sul for his part claimed that his strategy had worked without flaw, and showed no regret for sacrificing the Iron Warriors.
>After further showering the area with hallucinogenic chemicals, the VIII Legion finally made its move, dropping with Jump Packs into the heart of the district. The Legionaries butchered any who crossed their path, it is said that the VIIIth Legion allowed many to run, only to hunt them down a short time later. The VIIIth Legion preformed it last duty by throwing the remaining enemies into the chasm below and detonating their charges along the cliff edge, sending Vhnori plummeting into the earth and killing tens of millions.
>Beginning with a stream of terrifying noises and images that overloaded the enemy communications network, terrifying any open to the broadcast. When a world was ripe with the fear only then would the Night Lords arrive, ignoring fortresses or military bases and instead butchering densely populated civilian centers.
>>46395160

Huh thanks buddy
What legion are you and what books would you recommend to get me interested in them?
I'm feeing inspired today.
>>46396925
Just a heads up you don't need to have read BotS to understand scars.
>>46396820
Levi Schwartz, a bitter lawyer from Germany.
And also happens to be Alpharius.
>>46396956
You don't need to, but I felt it added a lot of really great characterization. Both to the two main White Scars, the lead human character, and to The Khan.
>>46396925
Not him but the Meduson anthology is awesome. I know people are sick of Shattered Legions stuff but it tied up so many loose ends and had pretty much the only interesting Salamanders characters in the whole series.
>>46396388
They realized that they killed him too mercifully early and now the rule of thumb is that whenever Ferrus is mentioned there must be fond memories of him. Ferrus is now one of the most beloved brothers of the 21.
>>46396925
Stop right there. Read Night Lord Omnibus and star a real legion instead of White "we've never done anything" Scars.
>>46397069

Dude, just because the White Scars didn't have any background before doesn't mean they didn't so anything. Their internal uprising and the fallout from it is pretty awesome.
>>46397304
What about Vorax
>>46397366
The deredeo is like twice the height and probably trice the mass of the space crusade dread. The SC dread is slightly smaller than a regular dread, so at best it can be used as a castaferrum.
>>46397210

Seriously, have you read any of ADB's books? The Word Bearers, one of the lamest, shittiest, least accomplished legions, just steamroll everyone they face.
>>46397292
Do the Crusader Host. 1-3 marines from each legion. We've even got some details on a bunch of them.
>>46397292
I have the exact same problem. I must have made 20 lists for every Legion except space wolves and blood angels

Alpha Legion I imagine? They appear to have set up an entire system of research (reverse engineering), recruiting and manufacture. All without any obvious Imperium interference/oversight.
>>46397579
Alphas, dark angels, white scars by choice.
World eaters, night Lords, space wolves by others choice.
>>46397593
>>46397617

Because I was reading HH5, mainly because of the IM list and hooooly shit, the book is one of the biggest ultramarine wanks there are.
I thought Ward wasnt working for warhammer anymore
>>46397778
Example of how successful Guilliman was.
He turned a shitty world whose inhabitants lived underground into a jewel of Ultramar.
Basically, as the books say if Macragge was the brain and Armatura was the heart, then Calth was the soul
>>46397836
> book is one of the biggest ultramarine wanks there are
How so?
Half of the book is just them getting slaughtered
>>46397836
I didn't mind it.
It showed Guilliman to be an organisational genius, and he perfects already existing ideas and strategies.
However he sucks making up new stuff and he is a bit of a tyrant himself.
Plus, getting massacred.
>>46397900
Did Guilliman got his ass-kicked by some marines and even lame-ass Kor Phaeron in that book?
>>46397946
Yeah, but in his defense he didn't expect a geriatric like Phaeron to be that powerful
>>46397431
>>46397476

It doesn't really have any close combat weapons.
I was thinking more in the line of a regular dread, but what weapons. Would love to have it as a Mortis, but then I couldn't use the nose guns. Then again, is there a regular dread loadout that would make any good use of TL HB and some other gun?
>>46397778
The fifth most important world of the five hundred.
>>46398131
You're forgetting Armatura, which makes Calth the sixth
>>46397836
If you can get over the total ass pull ended then know no fear is quite okay.

I dont understand the Ordinatus. A regular Warhound brings 4 times the D a Saggitar brings, costing only 50 pts more
>'hey girlyman, why didnt you help terra?'
>'i was too busy counting beans and pushing pencils'
>>46398093
>It doesn't really have any close combat weapons.
Well then convert it or something, if you want to use the old dread 'as is' with no changes then there aren't many options for you beyond boxnaught
>>46398244
Yeah, the Saggy Tar isn't great, but the Sonic Boom Gun the other one has is probably the single most broken shooting attack in all of 30k/40k.
They're both so expensive that they're almost impossible to field in a 30k game unless you're playing at like 5000 points in a single army, and I doubt anyone's gonna be willing to play against them as a LoW in a 40k game for CultMech/Skittles.
>>46398244
warhounds pretty much invalidate all of the 500+ point superheavies
>>46398244
because ordinati are fucking cool as shit and near impossible to kill for the first 2 turns, and unreasonably difficult to bring down afterwards thanks to its giant force field of fuck off
>>46397730
It makes sense though. In 40k sure, Dark Angels do their own thing and can't be relied upon by other Imperial forces. But in 30k they're just another legion. Like the White Scars, they've got loyalists and traitors and that's it. None of them are taking a third path.
I don't really buy into the whole Cabal story, but the Paramar anecdote suggests that the Alpha Legion's service to Horus is conditional and they're fighting for the legion's sake at least as much as for the over traitor side's.
Of course, let's not forget the Thousand Sons.
>>46398277
>convert it or something
I have not seen a single space crusade dread with close combat weapons that hasn't looked like complete arse.
>there aren't many options for you beyond boxnaught
Well that's what I've been on about. But what to slap on it? I'm gonna replace the guns since the I don't really have any and the mounts are somewhat busted.
What do you say White Scars unique units will be?
>>46398244
Warhounds are probably too well armed. In Epic their weapons are clearly a step below the serious titan weapons. The Ordinatus Minoris and Shadowsword can both have volcano cannons that can do more damage to a titan than a Warhound can, at the expense of speed.
A legion can ally with another legion, right?
>>46398154
Important was the wrong word in this context. Calth could possibly join the master world's of ultramar as the fifth, more like a capital city, combining significant military and manufacturing presence with culture, learning and history rather than being totally dedicated to only one of those like Armatura.
>>46398479
The shadowsword volcano cannon is bit of a joke compared to twin turbo-lasers and proper titan volcano cannon.
>>46398497
That's cute.
>>46398252
>hey ferrus why didn't you help terra
>
>>46398497
Man I wish I had a pet wolf...
All I have is a dopey, overweight golden retriever.
>>46398453
Some kind of jet bike, after that it's engines guess. Khan had a Terminator elite body guard but FW are going to be dicks if they don't make it more worth while to field Khan on a jetbike
>>46398563
I swear to GOD if the Khan isn't modelled on a bike of some sort I will genuinely be pissed off at Forge World.
I never get annoyed at them.
>>46398506
>>46398497
This makes me think Leman and Corvus could be on good terms.
>>46398582
You reckon with Khan the white scars are going to be hit and run: the Legion?
>>46398546
THE FLESH WAS WEAK
>>46398632
They already have hit and run.
And skilled rider. Even the dudes NOT ON BIKES.
I wonder what bonuses he will give to the legion though...
>>46398655
He makes them faster?
>>46390193
Don't mind me just rolling a random name for my IIIrd Legions IIIrd Company Sargent
>>46397360
That's aweso-
>cannons are upside-down
FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF
>>46398683
Everyone moves a further 6" if they flat out?
All vehicles gain Fast?
He will have a meta ability to emphasise just how freakishly fast his legion was under his command, so expect bonuses to seizing.
What do you think?
>>46398655
Global Fleet?
>>46398252
>too busy making a second imperium
>by too busy I mean being a secret traitor primarch by purposefully ignoring Terra and summoning 'nids
>>46398756
Yes to everything. Fast enough to give every speed freak in existence a heart attack from the knowledge that someone somewhere went that fast.
>>46398453
Marines with bows on mechanical horses
>>46398756
Global Fleet, always go first if you chose to, and Maru Skara esq +1 to all movements.
>>46398803
>wait for terra to fall
>emperor dies
>chaos forces are fucked up from the huge siege they just fought
>heres girlyman to rescue, kills chaos, few remaining loyalists forced to ally with him, crowns himself emperor
the scary thing is... that thats pretty much what happened...
horus fell to chaos through being poisoned by a nurgle sword and have rituals done to save his life, so he has an excuse... girlyman was just naturally a douche.
>>46398892
Yeah I remember when Lion was the dirty traitor and Guilliman was the goody two shoes, now it seems they reversed their roles.
You have to wonder if Dorn didn't die due to a case of Ork Snipers
>>46398755
The way that assault cannons are oriented is pretty arbitrary. They wouldn't fit the other way so I just flipped em lol. I'm gonna order some rotor cannons and use the backpack ammo things to cover the hoppers.
>>46398563
Terminators on bikes!
Just tried out Tamiya paints to test out the whole colored metallic look, and holy balls does it give me a raging erection. This shit is cool.
Makes me feel bad I picked Iron Warriors and just have plain metal.
>>46398892
I'm still waiting for "Mike Hawk" and "Mike Hunt" to appear.
>>46390193
Derp
>>46398792
>>46398852
>>46398890
Whatever it is, it will probably make them the fastest legion, even faster than EC and RG with Corax.
I absolutely cannot wait.
>>46398966
Do you have an airbrush?
>>46398244
Create a world for your dude fluff/worlds for campaigns. Might need some tweeking to be a proper 30k generator.
>>46399016
There better be a very meta quote from the Khan about just how fast his legion is.
>>46398952
>pretty arbitrary
It's not! The strut goes underneath, you hear, underneath!
>>46398966
Mask your marines with 1/4" strips of tape (6-7mm) and paint subtle hazard stripes on them with clear yellow.
>>46398966
Has anybody tried out the Forge World clears yet?
>>46399143
I own all of them, haven't had a chance to use them yet, other than to create a small swatch for each pot. They're certainly pretty bold, strong colours. Not entirely water based either, do not nearly as volatile as the Tamiya clears.
>>46399197
Hmm good to know. Thanks.
>>46393552
Khan fights and kills a shade of his best bro Magnus and learns the truth of the Heresy from him. Khan fights Mortarion and hurts him. Also rescues the found of THA BLAH RAHVENS
>>46399369
Well thanks for that you prick.
>>46399369
Oh yeah spoilers.
>>46399387
:^)
>>46399434
Fuck yourself.
Do Knight Errants Count as Allies?
>>46399250
Tamiya : Isopropanol + Glycol Ethers
FW Clear : Ethanol and Isobutanol
The FW stuff seems a little less glossy once dried, and has less surface tension when painting. It also smells a fair bit less too.
>>46399548
do you want to read the rules?
>>46397292
CUSTODES!
Also rolling for my new Despoiler Squad Sergeant's name
>>46399621
Rena: cancer giver.
>>46397360
BA Fag can't even magnetize the Asscannons correctly baka
>>46399582
Cheers thanks for the info.
I'll buy some and give it a go.
>>46398892
Except if you even read Unremembered Empire you'd know how Guilliman was doing everything to avoid giving himself power.
>>46398892
Except he didn't want to be emperor, and helped set up the high lords to replace him.
