Warhammer 40k: Age of Ta'unar edition
>>43859043
MFW you think the Ta'unar is best superheavy
>>43859070
The title more represents the state of the game, rather then the unit.
>>43859086
Are people still making Chuck Norris jokes? Really? How dead can one meme get?
Mont'ka PDF ???
>>43859026
Sixth in memory of Pask
Any Dark Eldar guy wanna give me some tips on how to work with five slow ass Talos guys in an army? I need them to be there for narrative reasons, but everything else goes on Venoms and Raiders.
Also is the release of Montka the time to finally build a Tau army? I have my narrative Rogue Trader style army cuz I enjoyed reading 1st edition, and my Dark Eldar army (also with a narrative.) Of the other armies who I think look good, that leaves SoB, Tau, and Death Korps. No more Chaos in 40k till they do something right with it. 30k Word Bearers/Thousand Sons when they come out till then.
>>43859146
Outflank them.
>>43859120
It's being released at midnight. Patience, Gue'la.
>>43859070
For it's points range? Yer. Pretty much.
>>43859162
cant waaitt !!!
>>43859070
>tmw the Ta'unar isn't a Super-Heavy
>Tmw the ta'unar is actually a GC
>Being a GC meaning that it gets more saves then a Super heavy, doesn't get effect by melta/armour bane anymore, and doesnt suffer from explodes
>Tfw the standard armour pen round will have a greater chance to dmg a warlord titan then the Ta'unar
>>43859213
>Tfw people won't shut the fuck up about this stupid GC vs SHW debate.
>>43859167
Its point range, maybe. The only things around its point range are the Baneblade variants (shit) and the Tyranid smaller creatures (shit).
Compare to a WK, the Ta'unar is meh. I'd take 2 of those over a Ta'unar if I could.
>>43859162
Mont'ka, fremd und geheimnisvoll
Türme aus purem Gold

>>43859213
MFW you don't realize that super-heavy is short hand for all SHV\GMC.
Third time's the charm.
>>43859240
Nah, I'd take a T'aunar over 2 Wraithknights. Much better at systematic extermination.
>>43859146
Exactly what this anon said >>43859150
The Corpse thief claw formation from the Haemonculus Coven book is what you are looking for. Combines them into a unit and gives them scout.
How would you go about stating the new Mecahnicus weapons in Dark Heresy? Shit like the tesla guns and radium carbines don't really have a precedent to my extremely limited knowledge.
>>43859221
>Being entitiled with having units that benefit from not being vehicles
>People are upset because power-gap
>"I can't believe people are still arguing this, warhammer 40k is a fair game and you have no right to argue" says the anon as he pulls out his trusty basilisk range dildo from his ass, continuing to then place 4 wraith knights onto the board.
>>43859302
Again, shut the fuck up. We get it, you think walkers are shit and MCs are great it has been discussed to death.
>>43859150
>>43859290
Oh shit I forgot about the scout. Thanks loves!
>>43859240
What's the best option for a Gundam Tau army? My narrative is gonna be based on mecha and lotsa Fire Warriors/Stealthsuits cuz those look badass.
>>43859255
Its not though. Super Heavy is items with AV, GCs and FGCs have wounds and are not counted as being such
>>43859300
Radium carbines would probably deal toughness damage and get like 1d10 additional damage on a successful "wound."
Are Tesla guns like the Necron things? Because those are definitely statted.
>>43859302
If you bitch any harder you might start bleeding. Adapt or die, pleb.
Tell me /tg/ what do you know about the Obisdian Knight?
I heard he is a big guy
Are the Tau so popular?
>>43859326
>Gundam Tau army
>lotsa Fire Warriors/Stealthsuits
>>43859358
If we took him out of that knight, would he die?
>>43859302
>he pulls out his trusty basilisk range dildo from his ass
>basilisk range dildo
Oh god, imagine how much silicone that would be.
>>43859326
The BEST option? Running 9 riptides and smirking as people get super super butthurt. But I don't think that's what you meant.
What do you mean by best?
>>43859331
SHV are what you describe. I understand the distinction. You can refer to both of them as SH to distinguish them from other LoW.
>>43859358
I hear the Obsidian Knight is one mean motherf-
>>43859122

>20 star t/b/h f/a/m, could have been general
>>43859337
>Are Tesla guns like the Necron things?
Not sure. As far as I know, the Tesla guns shoot electricity. The necron guns shoot..something else.
>>43859401
Necron Tesla does seem to be an actual lightning gun of some sort.
It's Gauss that's the weird fucker gun. Seems to be from some description a tractor beam that yanks streams of individual atoms off the target or some shit.
>>43859399
Nice meme bro.
>>43859399
Or just not be a POS play. War Con, anything Eldar, Necrons, Daemonkin, SM, Tau, there are a fuckton of good armies in the meta right now, and a good player is better than a good list.
A buddy of mine got 3rd overall at a GT recently using fuckin' BA.
So yeah, get good scrub.
>>43859326
The only non gundam suits you want to be running is Stealthsuits
Start off with something like this and buy more according to your budget and experiences on the battlefield, i'd personally throw in a stormsurge but just depends on what you can afford at the time or just Riptide spam everyone.
>>43859434
Right, I actually forgot the Necrons had a Tesla weapon family, but that seems to be more like a living lightning of some kind. The mechanicus weapons are much more mundane.
>>43859401
If you mean the arc weapons, just have them do Haywire stuff. Haywire table exists IIRC.
>>43859240
Wraithknight>Ta'unar>Warhound>Riptide>Knight titans>dragon dildo proxies(dlfg's custom tyranid scenery)>Super heavy tanks> Tyrone> Nid bio titans
In range from rape to being raped.
>>43859498
>Tyrone
Kek.
>>43859448
>3rd overall at a GT recently using fuckin' BA
>>43859498
Stormsurge belongs there somewhere, Riptides ain't that good, and it's missing a bit.
Overall, 6/10. 8/10 with rice.

Hope you can read spreadsheet
>>43859529
I can't really rate it yet because of little time against it. The 4 d missles may be rapey and it apprently can melee pretty hard. But, until I face one, I will withold judgement.
Serious question
If I bought a Ta'unar would anyone even play me?
>>43859551
>>43859448
Happen to know what he was using?
>>43859554
I faced one recently. Surprisingly squishy for 360 points but can murder most things in the shooting phase.
>>43859554
That's fair. I'm gonna try the one I have over the next little while.
The 4 D missiles will alpha a WK off the table in one turn if you give it 8 MLs of support, and that S10 AP2 with Intercept is awesome.
In LoW limited formats, I think it gets a lot better. Especially if LoW are limited to 0-1 units, because then you can get multiple Stormsurges, which is super-good.
>>43859572
Yes. It's fairly well balanced. Hits like a truck but despite having eight wounds it can die to a fair amount of anti tank.
>>43859368
MECHA and lotsa Fire Warriors and Stealthsuits. Those have nothing to do with Gundam/Mecha they just look cool.
>>43859378
By best I mean what are like the Gundam sized suits they have? Like as opposed to Fire Warriors and Stealthsuits which are more humanoid sized, ones where it's a human dude in the center manning a gigantic robot suit.
>>43859572
Prob same thing with a warhound or multiple wks/ riptides. Prob not.
>>43859572
Depends on context. In an Apoc game, not a big problem as your opponents likely have Warhounds/Phantom Titans. In a pickup game, it's going to be unkillable.
>>43859573
I can't remember everything, and they sadly haven't put up lists yet. From what I remember from looking at the super-well painted models, it was:
Dante
A contemptor dread
Some scouts in landspeeders
A stormraven
And like 40 marines that were assaulting turn 1
That list just meta-broke so hard. People's brains weren't tuned to dealing with BA.
Tau vs Tau game this week.
Turn 2, Opponent fired a Stormsurge's D missile at my Ghostkeel unit.
"Yeah you're snap firing now."
"Okay, I'll shoot the rest of my guns at other stu-"
"Snap firing, yes."
"Wait is that what the rule says?"
"Yeah, you prolly shouldn't have done that."
"Shit, okay I'll just unload on them then."
>0 wounds
And then I deep struck a bunch of fusion blasters and it died.
The only thing to Tau is Tau itself.
>>43859599
maybe try out the new ghostkeel? You get stealth and gundamsize in one neat package!
>>43859599
Yeah, run 9 riptides. You'll win 80% of your games, and make no friends, but you will have a list of gundams.
>>43859628
>turn 1 assault
how?
>>43859572
People have more fun with an explicit "DARE YOU DUEL MY MAGICAL TITAN?" fight than just kinda tossing it out there.
All about framing and context.
>>43859656
Infiltrator jetpack units maybe?
>>43859677
You can't assault after infiltrating.
>>43859656
They've got some formation that lets them assault out of reserve I believe. He's currently drunk off of his ass for Thanksgiving, let me see if I can find it in their book.
>>43859686
I have a tau friendo to talk to then.
>>43859701
It's in Shield of Baal exterminatus.
So what is the rule of thumb for weapon types?
My newbie understanding is such:
Melta for armor and gargantuan things
Grav is for heavy things
Plasma is a riskier grav that can get hot and have a bit longer range
For my Dark Angels will it ever really be worth switching grav for plas?
I run two bike squads one with 2 melts / combi-melts and 2 gravs / comb-grav.
On a side note should I bring another grenade launcher in my current RW Command squad of:
Apothecary, Champion, Ravenwing Banner, Grenade Launcher, Black Knight
>>43859677
>
>>43859686
You cant assault after anything(even fancy and dangerous stuff like skeis of fury) because its unfair, but deepstriking melta to tank rear armor is totally cool
>>43859572
I always expect Tau players to bring two
>>43859729
Grav is for gargantuan things with an armour save, melta is for things with an armour value
>>43859629
Savage.
I maintain that Stormsurges and Ghostkeels aren't OP. The former only have T6 and 3+ armour, whilst the latter can be instanted by Str10. Riptides on the other hand are a bit too good by virtue of their high toughness and AP2 for relatively low cost.
Not sure about Ta'unar though. Near invulnerability and sweet guns sounds good on paper, but at 600 points it's fucked if it gets tarpitted or debuffed.
>>43859707
idk what's worse; you believing him or actually getting hurt by some kroot/tau in assault
>>43859729
Grav theoretically has a speciality, but in practice it's absurdly high rate of fire makes it anti everything-except-daemons.
>>43859597
Fair one, I'm just worried cause i've seen how anal people are about playing FW models in my local shops.
Don't really want to spring the cash for the big guy if I never get to use him
>>43859787
Of course you do.
>>43859792
Just started the game
Has anyone downloaded Mont'ka yet?
I'll buy it and try and upload if you guys want
>>43859877
Please do.
>>43859870
sorry, kneejerk reaction. have a cute gif for your troubles
>>43859877

>>43859877
Do it.
If you don't mind
>>43859877
Hero
>>43859891
Holy fucking shit my heart turned to mush.
>>43859731
Hell, you can't even assault the turn unit walks in from your table edge. What the fuck is the point of reinforcements when they aren't allowed to do their fucking job?
>>43859792
Warhammer 40k is full of crazy shit. hell my last game had a dreadnought get punked by guardsman because the dude rolled three 6's in a row(snapfire,wound,pen table respectively)
>>43859877
Do it.
But before you upload, give us actual spoilers, to confirm or deny the "spoilers that may be lies" from last thread.
>>43859787
I do love though that the ghostkeels get a formation that is basically a giant middle finger to Imperial guard tank's that were already okayish at best.
>>43859920
i wanna give a snide remark about the state of the game and cqc but it's been talked about to death
So I'm looking at running this list at an ITC event here soon. Would love competitive criticism\feedback.

>>43859711
Go on, I'm taking notes.
>>43859729
>Melta for armor and gargantuan things
Remember when skimming your codex's armoury that fleshbane still wounds gargantuan's on a 2+
>>43859965
>>43853059
and fix your fucking formatting, that's ridiculous.
>>43860001
HTF is that bad formatting. Are you blind? Every unit is listed with its options and points cost.
>>43859971
Heh, it's in the OP. You need three Stormravens and three tactical squads with teleport homers.
Stormravens come on turn one. You drop the guys out the bottom. When your reinforcements come in you deepstrike them within 12" of at least two squads and they can assault the same turn.
>>43860030
Of course, Raven Guard completely laughs at this and cuts out the bullshit for far cheaper and on the first turn guaranteed.
>>43860029
I take it you're the guy that posted his greentide list as
10 boyz + nob with power klaw
10 boyz + nob with power klaw
10 boyz + nob with power klaw
etc. Yeah?
>>43860073

>>43860147
>Copypasta
Wat
>>43860063
Raven guard dont get dante and death company though
>>43860176
No but they do get five point power weapons for their vanguard.
I would take Raven Guard any day of the week.
>>43860164
No, "copy pasted." He typed exactly what he meant. The list is a copy-paste from another format, and it would have been the work of seconds to reformat it so as to be easier to read. That's the problem.
>>43860224
Nah, I literally typed it out that way. It's what makes the most sense to me, I've been reading lists like that for forever.
I have no idea what hyper-dense shit y'all are used to, but that seems awful.
>>43860164
We're not robots that need everything laid out in separate units. 1+1=2 is a basic concept that everyone understands, you don't need to take up nearly an entire page with spaces inbetween the same repeating units. It's horrendous to read through.
>>43859711
>>43860030
You cant assault out of deepstrike and nothing in that formation says otherwise. What am i missing here?
>>43860275
Reread it.

>>43860295
Based anon.
In a drunken stupor yesterday I seem to have ordered 6x4 Rubber Mat for $30. It is 3/4 inch thick.
I think my idea was to make my own play mat. My primer says it is good for robber but since I will most likely cut it into 2x2 squares for easier storage I am not sure if they will rub off paint on each other.
This wil be an interesting project.
>>43860295
Good man.
>>43860275
The way it works is:
3x Stormravens drop off 3 Tac Squads turn 1
ANYTHING that deep strikes within some distance of them does not scatter and can charge the same turn it arrives.
>>43860239
Seriously? It's got all the information, true, but it's stupid long. I go for something like:
Ranged Support Cadre:
...
4x Pathfinders
3x Broadside with TLHYMP, TL-SMS
...
OSC:
3x Stealth Suits
...
One line per unit wherever I can. Let's people take in the list at a glance. And bears less resemblance to Battlescribe, hopefully avoiding this whole conversation
>>43860295
Nice.
>>43860265
Is a format like this better?

>>43860295
Thanks anon. Truly the biggest guy in this thread.
>>43859787
Guy who Keelhauled the stormsurge here:
Total value of the Stormsurge is slightly dependent on how good a target you got for the opening salvo of D. I mean, if you tap two D Missiles on two seperate Wraithknights or Imperial Knights you just won the fucking game right there.
Ignoring D-salvo, which is it's own thing breaking the shit out of the game alone, the remainder of the unit is a bit of a rock paper scissors deal: Either your opponent can quickly deal with a unit that's exactly two carnifexes durable and it fails to make it's points back, or it anchors down and goes to town, flattening the biggest threats to itself first then dominating the table.
All or nothing. It overperforms or underperforms (whether due to bad tactics or a bad matchup) with very little room for middle ground.
Ghostkeels I'm a little more comfortable fielding... I mean, I'm under no illusion it's not overpowered, but it's -the- power unit of my list and does have slightly low firepower for points.
I mean, the fact that the unit is guaranteed to survive the game does mean that it's mildly low per-turn firepower is undone by getting to shoot consistently for six turns, but... Yeah I'll stop talking now.
>>43860398
For you.
>>43860350
Kinda, though 1) that list is not great and 2) this is how I'd do it.

>>43860539
So do the tau really beat the imperium as badly as people have said they do?
>>43860291
>>43860317
I feel like im in the wrong codex somehow.
Like i get the concept, stormravens move up the field. Drop the tacs and then youre within charge range but youre not allowed to charge out of deepstrike and theres no special rules that say otherwise.
Could you copy paste the rule where it says you can?
Old Orks player here.
It's Boss Snikrot any good now? Is it possible to build a list around him?
>>43859711
Its not in Shield of Baal, its in the White Dwarf that came out when BA were updated.
>>43860417
Maybe it's just the games I've had, but I've found the Ghostkeel is far more likely to die than a Stormsurge, simply by dint of operating at closer ranges than the 'Surge.
All it takes is a fast enemy unit and a poor jet pack roll and the Ghostkeel gets wiped out in CC. 3 attacks ain't bad but you're killing mooks first and then anything dangerous hits you back, likely hitting on 3s and wounding on 2s.
I should clarify by saying that we almost exclusively play on 4x4 boards due to a lack of space, which changes the dynamic significantly.
>>43860539
What a real human bean
>>43860476
That's pretty short, I guess I could put point values in parenthesis just in case.
As for the list itself its for a game against DE in a ruin/cover filled map. Besides those models all I have right now is a CCS, Primaris Psyker and a HWS (or 3 HWTs).
>>43860523
>>43860535
Thanks for the suggestions, that'll help whenever I need to list my army without it taking up a page.
>>43860539
You have my thanks, Shas'O
How many detachments can I take in my army?
I was thinking inquisition can take a acolyte with CC, pistol and boltgun for 5 points.
So what's stopping me allying in 30 guardsmen with boltguns and a LD10 stubborn character for 175 points?
>>43860588
Orks are in a rather poor state these days.
Farsight saved Shadowsun but is on the run still
>>43860585

>>43860633
>How many detachments can I take in my army?
Infinite
>>43860639
Well that sucks. Orks haven't been in a good place since like third edition gave they?
>>43860588
His formation is pretty useful as a bit of a distraction carnifex and for getting lods of boyz on the other side of the board fast. Kinda like a hammer and anvil sort of thing with the rest of your army. Having shrouded makes the boyz more survivable too.
In case you don't have the ghazghkull book yet, here's the rules.

Did you copy the key correctly bro?
It's still there I just checked
>>43861089
Best I could knock up with no PS skill and 5 minutes.I tried anyway
I am considering getting a Militarum Tempestus army to ally with my Ultramarines.
I've read that they provide cheap but effective deep strike and good air support.
What is /tg/'s opinion on them?
pic related, it's what I'm considering buying
>>43861097
yeah I'm getting this as well.
>>43861247
Why do you say that anon?
Am I missing something that makes that key funny?

Dark Eldar for people who think skintight leather and spikes are for fags.
>>43861255
holy shit I'm retarded and copied a space before the key.
>>43861097
maybe you did the same?
>>43861283
so, do they have any worth getting?
I don't play DE and no one in my gaming circle is playing them, are they good?
I might be in trouble. Avitus took Tarkus out with one punch.
>>43861310
From what I heard they don't offer much to IG armies, take from that what you will. Never actually heard of them being used to fill out a SM list.
>>43861196
Yeah, now is god. Thanks men, you are the real hero
Anyone know how to convert this to pdf?
>>43860955
Use readium.
>>43861333
you're lack of medi pack offends the Emperor
>>43861310
They are a hard army to play. The whole DE comparison is to point out that they are a glass cannon with a pretty meh punch. They are slightly more dangerous, slightly tougher guardsmen without the massed numbers and awesome vehicles that make the IG good. They are a very theme-reliant army when taken by themselves, for a masochsitic player, or one that doesn't mind losing.
>>43861240
The problem with Tempestus is that their guns aren't really optimized for killing anything. AP3 is great, but St3 means actually wounding MEQ's is a bit of a chore. And while St3 is good enough for mopping up GEQ's, you're paying for an AP3 that won't get much use, resulting in you getting less shots for your points. They don't have an amazing range either, and suffer from the usual IG problem of getting stomped as soon as someone comes within punching distance.
Some of their issues can be circumvented by the use of Orders (there's one which gives a unit Sniper, which gets around the St3 issue) but that means you're very reliant upon your Command Squads, so there's a built-in weakness that your opponent can gun for.

I was planning on using them mainly for Deep-strike with melta/plasma suicide squad, are those too expensive? should I stick around with the usual sternguard in pods with my Ultras?
Any other things someone wants me to fact check from montka?
>>43861519
So does that mean Longstrike died?
>>43861391
Never mind. I got everyone healed, and back to work. Had to revive at least one or two of them again but I won.
>No man who died in His service that died in vain.
Why is Tarkus so based?

Given that he kicks copious ass outside of his field of speciality, and obliterates within it, damn right.
I played one against Grey Knights once, it was hilarious. Reduced a ten man terminator squad to three with their own mind energy and that of their comrades.
>>43861880
I'm not liking these mistakes I'm making. How cheesy is he?
>>43860585
It's called the "Angel's Fury Spearhead Force." No idea what it's in, but it has "Augur Triangulation: If a friendly unit with the Blood Angels Faction arrives from Deep Strike Reserve within 12" of at least two models from this Formation equipped with teleport homers, then it does not scatter, and can charge on the same turn it arrives."
>>43861857

I assume that's because he doesn't like how antiquated and needlessly ornate the imperiums... everything is?

Ah, looks more like a parting 'fuck you' more than anything.
>>43859935
Sounds like that Guardsman deserves a fucking medal.
I've had a Dark Apostle kill two separate Tac Sergeants and their squads and a Chapter Master in three turns with nothing more than a Chosen Flamer squad.

Not exactly much a miracle but in the same game i had dante survive his death company squad being wiped and a revived yarrick charge him from behind, he actually got the 6 on his one inferno pistol shot and put yarrick down with a casual back hand blast
My opponent conceded due to rule of cool
>>43862089
Reminds me of the time a panicking guard Sargent took the last wound off a bloodthirster in challange.
>>43862139
Especially now the culexus is violently decorating space popes anus with his fist.
>>43859729
Grav handles almost everything bolters won't outside of units with 4+ armor saves (heavy bolters and assault cannons work here) and anything with no armor and high Toughness (i.e. Daemon Princes), which plasma is better suited to kill
Melta is for Instant Death against T4 units and vehicles, you want either grav or plasma against Monstrous/Gargantuan Creatures since they can fire more shots in one phase
Right, I am looking to make my own Blood Ravens descendants, so, I made some Psyker-heavy chapter tactics to complement them in friendly games:
1) All Vehicles, Characters and Independant Characters may take a 25-point upgrade to gain "Psyker: Mastery Level 1" or "Psychic Pilot: Mastery Level 1" if the warlord of the army takes this upgrade, they get "Psyker: Mastery Level 2" and may replace 1 weapon with a Force weapon.
2) Detatchment may not include Librarians
Essentially, they are based on a planet that the Tyrant Star has visited an alarmingly large amount of times (then again, 1 time is an alarmingly large amount of times) so, there is a VERY high Psyker presence on the planet.
Is this too OP?
>>43862137
Farsight tanked two assassins in a row and managed to buy time for Shadowsun to survive the one sent after her.
Defintely think some backroom dealing was going on between the Tau and Imperium to get rid of Farsight imo.

>>43862548
>You know I'm joking right? Poe's Law or whatever the fuck may be in full swig.
I figured as much. The first 40k game I played was Space Marine and playing Dawn of War has made me realize something. Bloodletters are probably only dangerous if they're in great number or if they're important like Skulltaker. In Realms to Chaos getting turned into Bloodletter was a reward but they're again lightweights. Why haven't CSM realized this and arm themselves to the teeth with looted Hellblades?
>>43862640
Are we sure it's him?
>>43862619
my mistake, maybe he's s2? on a side note i need to field some assassins with my daemons tomorrow

I'm not carnac, he wouldn't give a shit.
It's a meme at this point. I only just came back from a week off cause I'm sick of this meme of calling anybody carnac, guess it hasn't stopped yet.
So the part where Darkstrider kills the Vindicare was true.
>>43862590
I can take a power field to mitigate the risk. With 12 hull points, and the stompa most likely getting the charge, hes going to have to be real lucky to kill the stompa before it can attack back.
>>43862640
you do realise carnac posts the pepe farsight picture, right? you do also realise he hates frgos due to lizardmen, right?

Well, based on most fluff plus their insanely good skill stats, a Bloodletter is significantly scarier than random Joe Chaos Marine and only outdone by the most elite ones.
It's just that GW can't decide if they want Daemons to be reality scarring terrors or disposable mooks.
Nobody should ever say "Oh thank the Emperor, it's just Daemons. I was worried we might have to deal with mortal servants of the dark gods for a minute there", but both on the tabletop and in fluff there are situations where that would be a valid thing to say.
Tldr: GW is not good at consistency.

Because until the chains of emails clarifying intent, the rules had two ways to be read and usually you go for the conservative reading if that's the case unless you're a powergaming fucktard.
I was on the two weapon side, but only lightly and only because it was the conservative reading. Now that it's been clarified, I'm fine with it.
I like how the Tau now use stealth generators everywhere to hide their defences.
>>43863104
It's true. They know to hit the big ones first and just pick off the little ones with concentrated fire.
Tau are the only army that can beat tyranids with tactics and superior weapons.
>>43863150
>tau can beat the tyranids
>>43863150
>Tau are the only army that can beat tyranids with tactics and superior weapons.
That's wrong considering how the BR dealt with the Nids, and it'd be wrong if the Nids get good when GW wants us to buy more Nids.
>>43863150

I wonder if the Earth Caste will replicate the effect of the Imperium's superweapon like they did with the weather device. It could be handy vs the Tyranids.

Well, they didn't. They said that every single rule pdf/download on their website is considered official and can be used in games. It's up to you which you use. They also then went on to confirm that the "Experimental Rules: Not Sanctioned" does not mean they're not official or are outdated, it just means they're not printed in a book yet.
So, to that Anon asking about Fire Raptors Blood Angel weapon (it's not a weapon technically, it does no damage) now you know, you can use it official games and it's perfectly legal.
Now you just have the fun of convincing your opponent to let you use "Forge World Cheese".

DoW Anon here. That last mission was a little too much for me. Tarkus needs to be in Termie armor, and I might have to swap Cyrus for Thule.
>>43863318
You do know there is a massive major forgeworld (Stygies VII or whatever that one is) which is 95% dedicated to xeno tech and the 5% is basically the stuff they produce to please the Inquisition. It even says that Deathwatch teams are constantly fighting on the planet killing rogue or potential rogue Hereteks and the place isn't Exterminatus'd or invaded because it's so vital to the surrounding systems.
They're allowed to fiddle with xeno tech as long as it results in increased performances from weapons, or tactics to defeat them AND they provide sanctioned gear in the numbers required.
>>43863382
When do you think it's out? Christmas? Is this going to be on another planet or is it also going to be MB?
>>43863409
I was the guy who started the convo on fire raptors the other day. I got 200 dollars ready to order it. Im just waiting to see if any deals pop-up.
>>43863483
>When do you think it's out?

>>43863439
I like this one.
>>43863433
Just like all the new models they got for Shield of Baal? Granted, that poison formation is pretty good iirc. But the Malereceptor or whatever isn't that great.
>>43863465
>someone killed a bio-titan with a pistol
My sides
>>43863398
That tau have killed an entire Titan Legion, a small one, but still a Titan Legion
>>43863497
Yay. Enjoy. That's assuming you're running it as BA. As you probably aren't. I think somebody else asked about the BA unique weapon.
>>43863516

The tau have male reproductive organs, small ones, but still reproductive organs.

Based as fuck anon, can you please just ctrl+f Chaos and see if there's for any reason at all anything cool about them in the book? Stupid request I know, but still.
>>43863475
Terminator both Tarkus and Avitus for good defense and dps respectively. Barrier tome Jonah for protection.
>>43863465
Thanks dude you are a cool cat.
>>43863577
>>43863585
The tau have a meme, a small one, but still a meme
>>43863537
An anon on /tg/ talked about how he killed a Warhound (or was it a Reaver?) Titan with a single Missile Launcher equipped Marine in a 1v1v1 battle. Not as impressive as killing a bio-titan with a laspistol, exotic or not.
>>43863538
The Tau have killed a Chapter Master, a insignificant generic one, but still a Chapter Master.
>>43863245
Did Torchstar bite the bullet?

If this is reference to them being Asians, Japs have a larger average penis size than, not by much, but still larger average penis size.
>>43863604
Exactly. Well, if you want to be technical, they WILL be updated. They'll get a 7th Ed Codex, but no new models. They always update the entire set of codexes currently out in one way or another, doesn't mean a whole new army.
I mean, we KNOW that White Dwarf writers and FFG come onto /tg/, why can't they read my prayers and make GW do things.
>>43863595
Wait, which chapter is that? Looks like Red Scorpions. They're not involved with Mont'ka, are they? I thought it was Raven Guard, White Scars, Exsanguinators and a couple of others? Or is it only RG and WS that are mentioned?
>>43863605
Nothing cool for them. The female rubber ass assin melts one's head off and pask kills a titan in pic related. But yeah, they are used as background imperial fluff
>>43863637
She ia still kicking
>>43863677
WOMEN EH? EH? EHHHHHH?
Anyway, it had to happen for Farsight to come arrive. I'm awaiting for the day when Farsight and Shadowsun get trapped underneath a Warlord Titan and then fuck, before Farsight KO's her and puts her on a ship and gets his dudes to take her to safety to the heart of the Tau Empire. So when she awakes she's several years away... but, of course, they now have FTL travel.... I think it'd be cheesy and cliché as fuck, but I would actually enjoy it if that or something similar happened.
>>43863605
Avitus does more damage out of Terminator Armour due to weapon options as the no set up bonus for Heavy Bolters + Damage Skill does more than all but the top top assault cannons iirc. I need to replay it to remember.

IIIIIII thought it was funny but clearly I'm too advaned level of a memer for you guys
Here's the scenario, you get e-mailed by games workshop to right the new rules for synapse in the 7th ed tyranid codex. The only issue is you have to change out fearless as they've put in some free gaunt formations and are worried about a completely fearless army. How would you go about it, /tg/?
mine
>stubborn when in synapse
>synapse creatures get eternal warrior
>powers of the hive mind: Units with the special rule "advanced synapse" can command a unit to do one of three actions after movement but before the shooting phase
>focused assault: declare a shooting attack against a unit, you may choose to snapfire instead of firing at regular ballistic skill, if so the unit gains hatred for the following assault phase
>adaptive camouflage: the chose unit gains a 5+ invuln against shooting until the next player controlled shooting phase
>ground control: unit may overwatch at regular ballistic skill until the next player controlled shooting phase
Advanced synapse creatures would be hive tyrants and the like.
>>43863781
Ooooooooooooooohhh

Get somebody to proof read first, eh old chap?
As for your thing. I agree. I think there should be Advanced Synapse creatures. Stuff which is highly dedicated to Synapse support, rather than just being Synapse.
>>43863887
Don't Titans have more void shields to get past? The thing is, he shot the Titan, it exploded and killed most of the 3rd guys army, meaning he won with a single marine.

Both events, stompa and titan, are unlikely. I even seem to remember the Titan story being dismissed as bullshit based on the absurd series of events which led to it.
>>43863678
Oh shit. Well, give the arty stuff to Tarkus then.
>>43863745
Nvm it doesn't matter if he has Terminator with the right skill he has endless use of the artillery stuff (the real damage dealer.) It's been four years since I touched DoW2 myself.

I want to make Avitus the bad guy, but also do all the side missions which reduce Chaos.
I also remember getting a purple on first mission once. There is a spot you just face waves of guys and they don't stop spawning, so you just camp down and let them die, getting loot. I didn't do it to get the epic, but I knew it could be done.
I need to finish DoW2 again.... I swear I did....

i was crying laughing at how ridiculous it was when it happened
Have the non Farsight Tau fought CSM?
>The Baneblade Foebreakerhad served the Imperium of Mankind for over 10,000 years. It had been in battles that were now legend, fighting alongside Space Marine Primarchs when they still strode the stars. There was not a piece of its revered armour that had not been repaired or replaced. Always, Foebreaker had taken the enemy’s best shot and lived to tell the tale. But not this day...
>Unshielded, the Baneblade stood no chance. The blue bolt of plasma fired by the Stormsurge was of such super-heated intensity, and at such a high velocity, that it melted the armour, searing a hole and rupturing Foebreaker’spower plant with cataclysmic results. Not a single scrap of plasteel survived the ensuing explosive meltdown.
Saddest death in the book, Imo.
>>43860147
ITT whiny titty babies.
So, Aun'va is killed just before the wrap-up, and then later prepares to make a speech in the wrap-up? Typo, or did I miss some mid-story details?
>>43864486
Yes.
They fought the Word Bearers. Check out the CSM 6th ED codex (timeline section).
>>43864497
While I don't harbour any ill will towards the Empire, maybe they'll change some shit.
I mean a 10,000 year old tank shouldn't be something to brag about. No shit it got stomped by something that rolled off the factory that same year.
>>43861377
How the hell do you use readmium to convert to PDF?
>>43864545
It's almost like the narrator was replaced mid story, but the tau wouldn't do anything... mysterious like that. No way comrade.
>>43864566
>I mean a 10,000 year old tank shouldn't be something to brag about.
Think of its ancient and noble spirit that was snuffed out by xeno perfidy, you heartless bastard.
>>43864545
Wasn't the fact that he's dead or jot alleged. Empire claims their assassin got him and the Ethereals claim he will make a speech to prove he is alive.
>>43864610
I get the moral and emotional side, I do, but for fuck sakes. Invent something new.
>>43864674
in the real world sure. but in 40k? that's heresy. and the older the tech the better it is.
>>43864545
It's a cover up. He's dead.
>>43864566
The tank is relic. It's been around as long as the Imperium has been around.
>>43864674
Invention? This is the Imperium we're talking about here. That would only happen if Mars suddenly stops being stupid and if they hit the motherload of STCs like in this thread http://suptg.thisisnotatrueending.com/archive/3556122/
But you know what would happen if the Imperium found that many STCs? Something like the SoB and the flamer would happen, or Chaos would be a brat and destroy it.

First off, if you are running farsight enclaves, the requirement is that one unit of troops suits must number 3 suits not counting drones. You have 2 troops suits running naked. Not a good idea.
>>43865178
Not anymore
>>43864545
No he is dead for good. The ethereal council use a holobullshit to embold the tau moral after exterminatus
>>43864443
Oh I know, I was just saying can you still pull it off and clear all the side missions that remove Chaos, like "save guardsmen" or whatever.
>>43865142
No. I do what I want.
>>43865382
I know.
>>43864566
>I mean a 10,000 year old tank shouldn't be something to brag about.
Really man? It's a tank that have being fighting for 10 000 years, that's some shityou brag about, specially in the kind of battles that take place on 40k.
Well a quick resume.
Pask is alive. It was rekt by amour interdiciotn cadre lead by Longstrike.
Vindicare and eversor go after fasrsight. The first kill a bunch of people and damage the shield generator of oshova. Darkstrike set an ambush a finally kill the vindicare.
The eight fought with the eversor and finally, the wrech machine is slain by farsight himself.
The callidus almost slain shawdoswun if not for the sacrifice of one pathfinder shas ui,
Space pope is killed by the Culexus. The empire use Holographs to spread mesages of hope.
The astra militarum actually was a really good contender. Is not the, always getting rekt by tau, that kauyon was.
Exterminatus!!!!
Most important. The skitary are a real ASSHOLES. Go retrieve tau tech and then disapear, giving the middle finger to the IG and the MARINESS. A 150% ASSHOLES.
Can you use the formations in Mont'ka for the Taucurion in Kauyon? If they can't be part of the main detachment, can you still use them as allies?
>>43864545
>>43865382
The whole Aun'va thing is bullshit.
In one of the novels, he gives a message about how he is glad she has survived her flagship being destroyed. But a few sentences before said there was no way for that message to arrived by now, for it to have arrived, it must have been sent BEFORE her ship exploded.
In short, it seemed to imply Aun'va knew Shadowsun's ship would be fired on, one hitted, she would escape and then survive.
You know what MY guess is?
Aun'va has messages pre-recorded for any possibility.
Had she not been shot down? He'd have a message for that.
Had she not survived the shot down? He would have a message explaining how she was cowardly killed on a peaceful diplomatic mission.
As she had survived, she got the message which said so.
But, even then it doesn't make sense, as the message still had to arrive, pre-recorded or not.
Fuck, I don't get their whole system. The novel said they have to have relay beacons around the systems to bump the messages and the Tau system was like 2 years away in space travel, so how the fuck did Aun'va get the message and then back again?
Or was he in a nearby system? Wait, doesn't it say he was at the head of the expansion anyway?
Okay, never mind, makes sense. it was just poorly explained.... Anyway, Tau having pre-recorded messages of everything seems very Tauish.
>>43865492
>Aun'va has messages pre-recorded for any possibility.
Tau have no need for such crude methods when they can simulate any personality with an engram and a hologram.
>>43865489
Yes, you can use this formation outside the Taucurion
>>43865410
>I know
Yet you did not answer my question. My point was, can you make him max Chaos AND do all the side missions, which obviously remove Chaos from him.
>>43865489
So heretical it hurts.
You know what I find funny? Tau are from the East. Yet Cadia is Constantinopolis. Which means shouldn't it be the Tau banging on the gates, not the Muslims (Chaos)? Or are they representing somebody else?
Also. I view it as this.
1. SoB = Catholic Christians
2. Space Marines = Jews
3. Imperial Guard = Protestant Christians
4. Chaos = Muslims
Think about it. SoB proclaim that Emperor is a God. Space Marines think that Emperor is an extremely powerful man, but a man nonetheless and is not a God (bar Black Templars and your OCDONUTSTEALS). Imperial Guard worship the Emperor, but not to the degree that SoB do and don't strap them to physical and mind rape engines if they do something wrong, or shave their hair off and charge naked wielding massive chainswords. While Chaos claim that the Emperor is a false God and they're banging on Cadia (Constantinopolis) to try and topple him (Pope basically).
As we all know, Constantinopolis did eventually fall to Muslims and has been Muslim ever since then. The spread of Islam didn't go much further than that, bar some Slavic states (who then removed kebab) and Greece.
I dunno, maybe I'm thinking too much into it....
>>43865527
That's what I meant. There was always a pre-worked out reply, regardless of how it was delivered. That costly war? It's all gonna make us stronger. That curb stomp? We're just so damn good. That stalemate? We cannot be denied!
Etc.

Fuck sake. Now I dunno whether these carry over to Chaos Rising or are auto available in Chaos Rising or what. It'd be effort to re-do my game again....
Also I double checked, Thaddeus doesn't do a knock back + damage when he teleports in, that's only if he's not in termy armour. Thou my Thaddeus is at like 171 armour he isn't going to die.
Also, it's a shame I don't have good gear for Thule, or I'd use him. As Avitus's Focus Fire affects the squad now.

I see some improvements, I'll be more interested when I see how they handle Flamers. I can't expect stuff like Dreadnoughts or Land Speeders anymore, it will never be in the Alpha with how fast they want to release the game.
>>43866495
It's improved a lot since I last saw it. It reminds me of Space Marine Multiplayer. Which is a positive thing.
The execution moves are cool too. My mate bought and is playing it, he says it's just like SM Multiplayer too. It's all good. I say worth watching.
>>43865806

>>43865487
It is specifically noted to NOT be an exterminatus.
"In his long and storied career, Lord Admiral Hawke had twice seen Exterminatus performed and he knew that this was not that ritual. He did not know what it was that he fired upon Agrellan, but he was glad to have it off his ship."
