Tabletop? Sure. They're pretty fun in my opinion. Lots of neat stuff to use if you're not a WAACfag.

As for fluff? They have personality now instead of "lol kill all life cuz". But GW hasn't really done anything with them apart give them a load of great Relics in Shield of Baal.

>1/4 of the way into Shield of Baal
>the fluff is written based on events that GW achieves in a battle report
>ohmygod.jog
>Meph (in fluff and likely on table) charges 3 Maleceptors and gets overwhelmed pyschically

Why? Why did they do this? All it did was make Mephiston look like a fucking bitch, an idiot and then a cry baby as he becomes a netlisting faggot who goes "FINE I'LL MAKE A PSYCHIC HOOD WHICH IGNORES THE SHADOW IN THE WARP!". Except it's 15 points and you can only have one relic, and woops, Mephy can't take it anyway and woops, Mephy doesn't have a ++ save, despite being a melee pysker and woops he's only ML3 and has lost one of his rolls to Sanguine Sword

Blood Angels are built up to be knocked down, it seems. Sevrin Loth is just super OP cause reasons. Tigirus can look into the Hive Mind itself, while Meph can't even take on three Maleceptors. Njal manages to conjure a storm to set off tetonic explosions in Prefectia.

Mephy, despite being the strongest, toughest, fastest and apparently one of the most powerful pyskers in the Imperium, he can't do jack shit. Either on TT orfluff. Melee or Pysker.
>>
>>47092604

>>47092646
Can't cast more than your ML number of powers.
>>
>>47092646
They actually confirmed ML = Max number of powers cast like they should have done in the beginning instead of the vague as fuck meaningless bullshit they used in the BRB.
Also stopped multiple psykers in the same unit from casting the same power someone else in the unit already used.
>>
>>47092646
Nothing people just didn't read the rulebook where it says, "The number of psychic powers a Psyker can use each turn depends on his
Mastery Level."
>>
>>47092710
>>47092699

This'll probably make powers that cost multiple warp charges a bit more usable, since it'll be harder to spam the cheap ones.
>>
>>47092699
This ML thing. I always assumed you could cast as many as your level.

For exampme. Mephiston would be.

1. Quickening
2. Sanguine Sword
3. Force Activation (that's a 'spell', right?)

And then you can't do anything else and unless you got lucky with Electroshield, you don't bother. Warpmetal armour isn't bad thou.
>>
>>47092690
>>47092699
>>47092710
Oh, then why the fuck are people complaining if nothing changed? I mean, psykers will ALREADY only have 1 more power than they can cast by default. So an ML3 libby will have 3 powers, plus the primaris. He then has to pick 3 out of the 4 to cast each turn.

That was already a thing in this game. Yet people are now bitching about it?
>>

Nigger please. Wraiths are the best point for point unit in the game, on top of being a huge pain in the ass to deal with.

There is a pdf in the OP.
>>
>>47092746
>let's just make this phase as complicated as fucking possible for no good reason

Why not just give each psyker a dedicated power or set of powers they can directly pick from, and then during shooting they roll to cast it?

Rolls:

>5+ to cast without using a mastery level (could cast max of 1 power this way)

>4+ to cast if you use one mastery level

>3+ to cast if you use two mastery levels (if you have them)

etc.

And you could split your mastery levels. So if you're ML 4 you can cast 4 powers on 4+, 2 powers on 3+, one power on 2+, etc.
>>
>>47092788
Oh, well if you wanted a quick rundown.

You roll a d6, and each player adds the total mastery level of all their psykers. That's how many warpcharges each person gets.

Any psyker can spend warpcharges to cast powers they know, up to their mastery level.

The opposing player can use their warpcharges to try and deny.
>>
>>47092710
>"The number of psychic powers a Psyker can use each turn depends on his Mastery Level."
But that doesn't actually fucking tell you anything meaningful.
Was it because that your ML was the casting limit or was it that having a higher mastery level meant you would have more warp charges and thus could cast more spells? Until the FAQ happened you could have argued for either.

>>47092730
A ML3 Psyker who stuck in one discipline would have 5 powers, including Force.
>>
>>47092730

They are bitching because Librarius power spam. Also, a ML3 has 5 powers if he does Psychic focus. The 3 rollls, the primaris and focus.

All in all it would be a good FAQ if it hadn't buffed the Tau and Eldar to the sky while gimping Orks, CSM, Deldar and (depending on your playstyle) guard.

And yes, this comes from a marine player that ran a librarius of nearly 1000 points. Fuck, I will miss my two relics for Chapter Master Blingasius.

>>47092770

>>47092819
Buying Psychic powers would be great. I can see min-maxing issues cropping up, but being able to get a power reliably adds to the personality of characters in your force.
>>
>>47092814
Aye I'm doing it now.

>>47092822
Right. That's the bit I didn't get, the adding up bit.

Cause, I seem to remember, there is a formation in Warzone Damocles for the Imperial Guard which can make the formation ML8 in total. Which obviously would mean lots of charges if you have a Lib Conclave nearby as well.

Thanks anon.

>>47092884
Yep. The Kustom Stompa is far more out of date, Zhad is more recent than the Daemons codex.
>>
>>47092841
I think a better balance would be buying the spells you want and then rolling for them. So say, Endurance, Warp Speed, Iron Arm, Electroshield, Might of Heroes. The more you have, the more it costs.

So you got these spells in a 'table' you then roll. I dunno, basically I'm suggesting you make your own table by buying the powers you want. Then rolling on that table.

That way, you get 6 powers you want, but you don't get all 6. You get 3 (you don't get Lore Mastery if you use custom table).
>>
>>47092881

This kinda crops the flexibility of many characters. Tigurius stuck with one discipline comes to mind; librarians were only mildly useful thanks to being able to roll on the tables to counter some builds on the go.
>>
>>47092832
Yea, unlike tumblr, I would rather not go into the details of why my memory is so bad. I'm starting to bring librarians more now, since the cards came out that I can have right in front of me. Apparently the Lib conclave is pretty beastly when attached to a 10-man Honour Guard. I had a 5k game where the Invisible, Gates of Infinity, Enduranced' guys with 2+ saves managed to tank the entire combined shooting of the tau army across the board.

That being said, I don't take reserves of any kind at all. They suffer the same problem for me that psykers used to have.
>>
>>47092875
It's another scion, but the Operator-tier one. People liked the beret guys more so put them as 'leaders' with the Operator-tier one below it.
>>
>>47089616
I'm an ork player and I balk at the prospect of ever buying that piece of shit that is the Orkanauts.

GW will have to make the game actually work before I buy that pregnant dread.

>>47092911
What do you run? As in, what Chapter? I'm sad that Loth can't fit into a Conclave.
>>
>>47092909
Who says they couldn't still counter stuff? Only now you could counter more intentionally and specifically if you had powers you could choose from already given to you.
>>
>>47092841
>Buying Psychic powers would be great.
The current way is fine. You really don't wan't me to consistently have a 2+ invulnerable save re-rolling 1's on my screamers.
>>
>>47092494
Every army used this tactic to some extent, though. I used it to kill Knights with a unit of charging Fire Warriors.
>>
>>47092928

Yeah right. Try countering a wraithguard unit with a biomancy Loth. Or a fearless blob with a divination Tigurius.

Kinda a good concept though.
>>
>>47092922
Ah, I run Raptors. Pretty much the only guys I have that would go in reserves are my Hammernators and Cataphractiis. I also used to have one of those stormtalons, but I sold it to the LGS.

My main strategy for competitive games right now is to have Lias Issodon infiltrate Grav-Cannons into shooting range on turn 1. In more casual games, I just stick to a single demi-company led by "Generic Captain 1"

I am tempted though to buy a knight box, but I would never be able to field a renegade knight for logistical reasons, let alone two.

And they said codex specific FAQs are coming out in a few weeks. I can't wait to see what delicious surprises are in store there. They'll probably destroy our last competitive build by removing Nobs in a Naut.

No, because even on /tg/ faggots can't be bothered to read the rules.
>>
>>47093480
Pretty much. I guess that a Klawstompa can deal with one, but those cost way more than a knight, and knights can have more than 1/army in most tournament formats.

This is why I'm getting depressed about my viability here.

I used to be able to sacrifice a 130 point unit by having them jump out of a Gunwagon, kill a knight, and die in the explosion. Now they don't do shit.
>>
>>47093495
it's going to be some massive nerfs for Orks is my bet.

GW could fix this by just flat-out increasing eldar points and buffing the shit out of orks, but I have lost all hope a long that GW gives a fuck about ork players
>>
>>47093486
At least wait until they finalize and cement these into actual rules, plus the codex specific FAQs. People are complaining about the grenades in melee thing all over the place so maybe it won't stick. Orks are my first army and I too have considered selling them but with my luck they'll get revamped the moment I let them go. The flyer update fucking sucks though. I was days away from buying two dakkajets. In a way I'm glad I can spend the money elsewhere but I'm bummed they're getting nerfed so badly.

just remember its a draft and some answers make no sense or contradict the brb, so not everything is going into the FAQs exactly like these drafts have them now.

a lot of it will, but they might change the drop pod thing, or the weird lance and quantum shielding cancel either out because, or the grenade thing, cause it's never been like that ever and looks like someone just copy pasted from the shooting rules and wasn't paying attention.

then again, this is gw, so... pray to rngjesus and hope.

Since when does tabletop follows the fluff ? Yeah nn it never did.

You are playing a game where space marines are 1,75m tall, where 50 guardsmen (out of the 9001 quadrifucktillion available) curbstomp a tactical squad of ten so called superhuman that the fluff said were able to conquer a planet with a squad of them, and a solar system with a company.

No, specific would be "Flying Monstrous Creatures, and Flying Gargantuan Creatures" not "Flying Monstrous Creatures and Gargantuan Creatures".

Vidya apparently means knowledge in Sanskrit or something, which is in line with the Blood Raven's motto of "knowledge is power, guard it well" or something along those lines.

In FAQ. But it only affects overheating blast and template-weapons, not normal weapons since that blast d6 roll for getshot "is not a to-hit roll"

Now that I think about this, this actually makes the new ork flyer quite shittier, too.

That's how it always should have been. If you're simultaneously targeting multiple things, you can't go "Oh, I stop time like the Matrix and since these cannons missed I'm going to aim my lascannons at the first target instead even though I started shooting with the lascannons aimed elsewhere lol".

Well *the* most prominent thing of the blood angels and their descendants is the black rage, something unheard of in Blood Raven lore. Also they have none of the special BA stuff (Lucifer Engine, Baal Pattern Pred....)
>>
>>47094536
The Rubric spell only affected Prospero. This is mentioned many times. It is also mentioned many times that lots of units of various Legions were spread over the galaxy. It's canon that Raven Guard went traitor/renegade as Black Shields.

Etc. So it's possible they're TK.

The only link they have to Blood Angels is:

1. Blood in the name
2. They are very sensitive to the warp/pysker

That's it. None of them go mad, literally all BA Chapters go mad, though some keep it away by doing stuff. That one successor chapter seemed to fix it and then went renegade/killed themselves when Tzeentch got involved. Apparently they were told writing poetry and painting frescos was gay as fuck and they should go murder shit instead. So they went and killed themselves in an impossible battle, against who? Nobody knows, but the records don't state they did it against the Imperium.
>>
>>47094579
Yes. Why?

>Formation :
>Kaptain Badrukk
>2 units of Flash Gitz
>Restrictions: All units of Flash Gitz must have 10 models

>Special Rules:
>Kaptain Badrukk's Flash Gitz: During deployment, the controlling player can choose to form Kaptin Badrukk and all of the units of Flash Gitz in this Formation into a single unit known as Kaptin Badrukk's Flash Gitz. Badrukk cannon leave this unit. Kaptain Badrukk's Flash Gitz counts as 3 units for Victory Point purposes if it is completely destroyed.

>Kustomized: All snazzguns carried by models in this Formation have the Master-Crafted special rule

Happy?
>>
>>47094674
They actually have all that stuff

I would rather question the founding legion of the Sons of Sanguinius chapter. The BA have met them roughly a week after the Blood Ravens, and they have the Black Rage, but they lack any kind of typical BA armory They actually lack everything, even power armors
>>
>>47094692
>Etc. So it's possible they're TK.

Tomb Kings were squatted, brah.

Seriously now. I am not the original who said they were Blood Angels.

The Blood Raven geneseed is pure except for a single flaw. They don't suffer the Flesh Change like the rest of the Thousand Sons.

And What I meant by no Rubric is that they weren't there on Prospero to have their Flesh Change cured. So unless they explain how the Blood Ravens escaped the Flesh Change, then them being TS is not possible Imo.

Well I think TK will be rebooted as some Undead rebelling against Nagash, but it'll be a narrative campaign bollocks. Funnily enough, AoS has points now. I might play it now.

But this is 40k, I'm tired and said TK instead of TS.

Also, I see your point, but didn't some author go "I thought I made it too obvious they're TS successors"?

So, if they're not Blood Angels (no Red Thirst/Black Rage, unless being so obsessed with stealing and knowledge suppresses it) or Thousand Sons. What are they? They're a heavy psychic chapter and the main 'psyker' chapters were:

1. Thousand Sons
2. Blood Angels
3. Sons of Horus/Luna Wolves

So, are they Luna Wolves/Sons of Horus successors?

SoB are one of the only armies which are not great, but not awful, and thus don't suffer too much. Flamers are great. Melta will always be dangerous. Heavy Bolters shred GEQ.

>"I thought I made it too obvious they're TS successors"?

Yeah, McNeil.

However, ADB is lobbying other authors and the chief editor Laurie Goulding to stop the Blood Ravens from being written revealed as Thousand Sons. He said that if he geets to write anything Thousand Son related he will make it impossible for the Blood Ravens to be Thousand Sons.

>>47094866
If that is the case, ADB needs to be pushed into oncoming traffic. BR being TS is one of the coolest aspects of the chapter. Also opens the possibility for other armies composed of loyalist members of the traitor legions. People often say Red Scorpions are loyalist Emperor's Children.
>>
>>47094866
ADB can fuck off. Let people write what they want. I can understand not wanting out and out blatant "yes they're TS successors", but giving hints and shit, but never saying it. Is awesome.

Look at Frozen. The Disney film. It's very blatantly about a woman in love with her sister, sexually, and trying to get over the social stigma and guilt of it. Yet it never out and out goes "I want to fuck you". It's hinted and the fans see the subtext.

So that for BR would be fine.

He just wants 40K to keep its mystery. He is against 30K revealing too much of the mysteries of the 40K.

But the BL/GW editorial meeting okay'ed it despite his protests.

Anyway, ADB might get what he wants with the Blood Ravens. Arvida the TS guy who foresaw the Blood Ravens in the McNeil book and the one speculated to be the founder of the Blood Ravens, has went into coma after his fleshchange got activated in the lastest HH book. Now he is in dire condition under the care of Malcador.

My point is, friend, is that memes force the view of things. For example, you know the UK flag? Well people call it the Union Jack. That is incorrect. It's the Union Flag. But because people have called it the Union Jack for so long, it has become that by default. It's stupid, but do you see how, and this is literally memetic stuff, that shit becomes the way it is due to people forcing/encouraging it to do so.

In short, the 'fans' say Eliza is a lesbian, so she is. Until said otherwise. Same shit with anime yuri sub-text shit that /u/ faps over.

>>
>>47094425
I agree, that it's not clear, if multiples are allowed, when it's grouped together like that. However, it's different with (for example) Eldar and Harlequins:
Both have the option for relics as a stand-alone sentence, not grouped together with other wsrgear. Eldar codex says "items", clearly plural, Harlequin codex says "one item", specifically forbidding multiples.

So the FAQ nos adresses this difference in wording, forbidding multiple relics alltogether.
Or could you argue the eldar codex specifically allows them?

>>
>>47095040
It was true until proven otherwise, same shit with Eliza being a lesbian. They say the Earth is flat (nobody did actually, nobody of any scientific worth ever said the Earth was flat). Hell, the fucking Greeks said the Earth was round. That's fucking BC shit. Roger Bacon wrote the Earth was flat in 13th century.

So, in short, it might have been a meme with people until proven otherwise. Same shit with Eliza.

I am informing an anon who is interested in the Blood Ravens that there is a battle between authors over the Blood Ravens. McNeil and Relic want to force the Blood Ravens to be TS while ADB is trying his best to stop it. It goes beyond having an opinion, he is actively trying to stop it.

My point is, if he cared so much about what happened to his precious TS, he should have got fucking involved.

I even agree with him, don't out and out mention it, but give hints. But the fact ADB is being a prick and getting into a dick slapping contest over the fucking fluff is stupid as fuck.

He should have got involved a long time ago.

Subtly is key, I agree, that's half the fun. Half the fun is the hints that they're X or Y and patching it all together.

But it sounds like ADB wants to undo lots of peoples work cause he doesn't like thing.

>>47095105
Seen it before and it's a load of crap. That's like saying Demonfuige is 'divergent' because they refer to daemons as demons and SoB are literally unable to even love another person, let alone have relationships. Which, of course, got changed later on by Sandy Mitchell and that other time.

C.S.Goto's stuff might be stupid as fuck, but it's canon until it's changed. Otherwise you have to invent a timeframe where it's considered part of the fluff or not.

>that pic

How about you stop writing about major characters, groups and events in such an ill advised manner, if they can't hold true on anything. I don't mind inconsistencies in shit when it's not happening to the same people and about major events. When you're telling small stories as part of a large universe, you can easily explain all inconsistencies with "well, it was just that one time" or "it was how they perceived it, not the objective truth". But when you have the same characters being inconsistent from novel to novel, what's the point even?

Also, isn't this Mk. "Coherent IP and logical market appeal" who took a shit on people who couldn't make sense of the changes in the fluff and how they should just trust GW, they know what they're doing?
>>
>>47095126
>My point is, if he cared so much about what happened to his precious TS, he should have got fucking involved.

The thing is....nobody takes Cs Goto books serious. People and authors dismiss it on the fly.

But if it's written in the HH series which is the most edited and monitored series in the whole IP, then it's pretty much set in stone and there is nothing he can do to dislodge it. Like the fact that the Tyranids have been attracted to the galaxy because of what happened to Sotha. It will remain canon forever now.

Am I having a stroke? How is it not anything but an empowering song?

Or do you mean to the people who see nothing but lesbian subtext?

>The initial "Oh, look..." for the Tyranids should probably be because of the loudest, brightest light in the galaxy, no? Something that would attract the Great Devourer's attention? Maybe something like the manifest psychic energy of hundreds of dying psykers every day channelled through the will of a living god acting as the salvation of Mankind and the reason Warp travel is possible. The Emperor's psychic might, reaching across fifty thousand light years of the galaxy, illuminating the darkness of the Warp. It's even called "the Ray of Hope", and it's heralding the galaxy's death from beyond the galactic rim. That's thematically beautiful. That's pure 40K.

>Rather than, say, an infinitely lesser artefact getting switched on and off.

>>I mean, I get it. It's a hook and it makes yet another 40K trope have "more important" roots in the Heresy, and is yet another example of 40K ignorance, and the whole point of 40K is ignorance. But it's not particularly thematically strong, the same way Darth Vader building C3-P0 certainly helped continuity but didn't actually add anything. Sometimes the old lore we've loved for 25+ years is good enough not to change. The Tyranids coming to the galaxy, drawn by the Emperor's light, is awesome and a major factor in their lore since they started getting lore.

>>Though, again, I feel comfortable enough revealing all this because eight squilllion of these conversations happen all the time (this one happened long before Guy even joined the team, for example) and winning or losing them runs about equal. Then there are the ones you win which you regret winning, and the ones you lose which you decide you prefer after all. It's a bizarre amount of fun.

-ADB on Guy Haley's "HH : Pharos"

Dude is doing his best to protect the feel of 40K. He is so based.

Remind me why anything that is in that picture has any value? Having a position on a fan theory is fine. Using his position to wave his opinion around like engorged unmentionables is not.

By a "lesbian pov" it's definitely not an empowering song, but I would argue that even outside of that point of view it's not an empowering song and, if it was supposed to be, it ended up being as a broken aesop.
Elza is basically forced to run away from anyone she loves and anyone who loves her to be able to express her power because she's too scared of her own power and the reaction of the people to try to make them understand she isn't a monster, like it happened in the end of the movie.
She chooses to live alone, away from everyone, for the rest of her life because that's the only way she can "let it go". She has just exchanged a psychological solitude with a physical, "real" solitude
Also Let it Go is arguably the best song of the movie, and we all know that the villain song is always the best song in a Disney movie. The real villain is the insecurity of Elza, and the plot twist of the prince is pure shit, completely unnecessary

"Throwing" a grenade and shoving it down some giant squid's throat are two different things.
"Throwing" grenades during assault phase applies to overwatch but not to the fight subphase. While I enjoy the nerf to haywire grenades it doesn't make sense that you have to pay those grenades for your whole squad

Can someone explain to me how ADB considers himself more relevant than goto when he is the author of the cringefest that is the Night Lords trilogy ?

Seriously, fuck this petty cunt. BR being TS successors is awesome and gives them more personality than most of the 1rst founding chapters.
>>
>>47095347
>implying you've been playing it any different

I mean, how do you determine "throwing"? Technically you're throwing assault and defensive grenades, but I don't think anyone's gonna claim only a single model gets to benefit from those.

Then... why do vanguard veterans have the option to give everyone a melta bomb?

I mean... if this change is what they intended wouldn't that make that upgrade retardedly pointless?

Fixing the Jink loophole drops them down to Ork/CSM/Tyranids tier.
>>
>>47095558
At least Vanguard vets can choose how many bombs to buy. IG buys krak grenades per unit and Vets get melta-bombs per unit, not by per model (unless you buy them for the sergeant).

In 30k I now have a unit of 6 bikers completely useless, because I thought a cheap melta-bomb delivery device for dealing with the likes of Spartans would have been cool. Now the next best thing I got is a unit of 5 terminators with chainfists in a land raider.

You have to snapfire the passengers when their transport jinks and moving more than 6" with the transport makes the passengers snapfire as well.

They really should do this. The current way is dumb for several reasons:
1. Psykers can get potentially powerful powers for as low a cost as 10 points (Inquisitors) or otherwise still fairly cheap, simply by being lucky before the game even starts.
2. The powers vary HUGELY in power, so assuming they are all of equal value is retarded.
3. If they had costs, you could both make a far more fluffy list, rather than the "Oh, my psyker is a dumbfuck who has no idea what he has before the battle begins", and the cost of the psyker would vary a shitton depending on the powers. So Invisibility could be 50 points, where some of the more shit powers could be as low as 5 points.
