Johnny is the mascot of the /wip/ board. He's a rogue trader marine that holds a bolter magazine up to his ear, presumably so that the magazine can whisper dark secrets to him. It's often captioned as such, with the bolter magazine inciting him to murder.

I made what is intended to be a thematic Samm-Hain Eldar list, though I'm not sure if it's too cheesy.

I went with shuriken weapons on the Windrider formation because I want to get milage out of the bonus rule, and I prefer Shuriken cannons to Scatterlasers.

I'm torn between Scatterlasers and Starcannons on the Hornets, Starcannons because I could uses some reliable anti heavy infantry/MC/light vehicle weapons (and to dodge the scatterlaser stigma) on the other hand, Scatter lasers come cheaper so i won't need to tear though the list to find to the extra 30 points (and there's something satisfying about the idea of 3 hornets blazing in and unleashing 32 shots of scatterlaser hell on the enemy flank/rear)

You're still confusing +1 and 1 point increase to stat line.

It isn't BODMAS, its not even in the order of operations, its just their new statline.

They don't go S4 + 1 for wargear x 2, it goes S5 x 2. They never stop being S5.

Okay, so how do you determine which wargear changes the "base" statline, and which the "final" statline then?

I'm kind of lost, Battle brothers and detachments and all that thing.

If I want to make lets say Marines as my main army I would need HQ and 2 troops. That would be a combined arms? and in order to add lets say Imperial Guard. I would need 1 HQ and 1 Troop as an allied?

Or I'm missing something.

>>47788424
Yeah you're right. 1 HQ 2 troops would have to be deployed as a combined arms detachment.
Any allied detachments need 1 HQ and 1 troop minimum.

daily reminder that nobs on the charge with a klaw are still only str 9, and cant double out thunderwolves.
>>
>>47788424
So you've got four kinds of detachments you can use:
>Combined Arms
>Allied
>Faction-Specific ("Decurions")
>Formation
You can use any combination of the above. The only limitation on this is that an Allied Detachment can't be your only detachment, can't have your Warlord in it, and can't be out of the same Codex as your Warlord. You can have your Warlord in any of the other detachment types.

If you have any units that aren't in a detachment, your army is "Unbound" and you lose the benefits of CADs and ADs, although you keep the benefits of Decurions and Formations.
>>
>>47788425
>Always throught Tau could be fun as a mobile shooty force instead of a static gunline. Do Breachers make this possible, or are suits still the only way to do this?
Suits are the only way to do it well, Breachers are ridiculously short-ranged, yoru practicly have to BE on top of th eenemy unit to get any reliabl elkilling done.

The best way to use breachers as a mobile shooty force is stupidly enough to put them on the Tau moving gunline fortification, which doubles the range of their powerful shot.

They can't assault after using Grav-Chute Insertion, because it uses the Deep Strike rule. The Stormraven has to enter Hover Mode to use the Assault Ramp.

Which means that, you may be able to upgrade the Commissar into a Lord Commissar since it's an upgrade to their wargear and statline instead of a different model.

>>47788813
Any Assault Vehicle or Open-Topped transport will let them Assault after disembarking. Your problem is with Deep Strike, not Assault Vehicle.

Also, I should point out that you can't start the game in a Battle Brother's transport. You have to start them separately on the table and then load up.

So a Stormraven could work. I want to make "Zoom" sounds when moving it, while "Broom" sounds with the Landraider are cool is not as fun.

>>47788989
Land raiders are your only option that doesn't make them worse on the table.
>>
>>47788884
Talking about assault vehicles and deepstrike why the hell are drop pods open-topped vehicles? i mean its not like anything can reembark after its landed and its not like you can assault from it since it can only be embarked upon deep strike. unless i'm forgetting a rule that makes them special i cant fathom why they are open-topped.
>>
>>47789012
If I remember my old school warhammer I would need two landraiders with two full squad of repentias to not suck that much.
>>
>>47789034
They blow up easier.
>>
>>47789034
To make them easier to destroy after they land, it's supposed to be a way to balance it.
Also, it's opened topped because it's open, it's fluffy.
>>
>>47789034
It's just there to weaken them a little.
>>
>>47789034
They are only open topped after they land, you know when all the doors are open exposing it's insides.
>>
>>47788950
Here's how this is going to work:
>Stormraven enters the battlefield in hover mode on turn 2, flies to where your 6+ Repentia are cowering in fear
>Repentia load up
>Stormraven Zooms to your target on turn 3
>Stormraven enters hover mode on turn 4, deploying Repentia
>Repentia assault
>Stormraven gets nuked now that it's essentially a Chimera alone in the middle of the enemy
>Turn 5, Repentia maybe get to assault another unit, game ends

Is it really worth it?

Alright, /tg/, I'm primarily a KDK player that, but I can also run a pure demon list using mostly Khorne daemons, relying on how expensive Demon Princes are to eat up points, and my small handful of Tzeentch daemons. When I field KDK, I've largely become the cliche "ork player" in that everyone has fun fighting me but I tend to lose. That's great and all, but I feel constrained by the limitations on the army due to the formation/decurion requirements (possessed tax, MoK tax, 2 bikers etc..) and I'm looking to bone up more on a pure daemons list. Most of the players in my group are Space Marine players, but one of them is a Necron gunline army that I have absolutely no way of handling currently and another player uses multiple knights, which I don't own enough anti-armor to make a serious dent in (other than a D-thirster). I have a good amount of khorne daemons already but I've been reading up on Nurgle and Tzeentch daemons and like a lot of what I see.

So in the interests of more efficiently spending my money, any daemon players here have some advice for me for how to expand my daemon list or have any good lists that can be used as a template in order to compete a little better in this Space Marine run world? I currently own the following:

- Herald of Tzeentch x 1 (no disc)
- Pink Horrors x 30 (got a deal on a bundle)
- Screamers x 3
- 1 Defiler I proxy as a Soul Grinder sometimes

I'd like to expand on the Tzeentch daemons in particular without entirely devolving into summon spam (emphasis on entirely) as I don't currently generate enough warp charges to be as durable or shooty as I'd like, but wouldn't say no to working in some Nurgle if they can be reasonably worked in depending how large the game is.

TLDR: I'd like build a workable Tzeentch daemon (with possibly some Nurgle) list, what advice do you have?

PS: Is there any validity at all to these rumors about a Tzeentch daemonkin codex/new LoC model?
>>
>>47789161
Depends how many you need to move.
Land raiders have variants now, with the oldschool lascannon godhammer, the double rapeflamer version with 12 seats, the bolters on bolters on bolters version with 16, the super delux version with 20 seats and immunity to meltas as well as as all of other more gun oriented versions with les emphasis on transportation.
>>
>>47789650
well you need a skullcannon for sure, i'm surprised you don't have one already. if you hate the model grab a juggernaut, 2 blood letters and a cannon on wheels for a conversion.

if you're going for more tzeentch then you'll want fateweaver or lord of change. burning chariots are av 10/10/10 3hp but a torrent flamer or d3 lascannon shots at the right moment are damn good.
>>
>>47789717
Oh, I didn't list my Khorne daemons. I got the start collecting khorne box when I made my KDK army (10 blood letters, blood throne/skull cannon, 3 blood crushers). I also own 2 bloodthirsters (1 D, 1 vanilla), a demon prince from my CSM days, and 20 flesh hounds.

Fucking no way dude. I'm talking about playing my friends who use marines, blood angels, chaos / lost and the damned and dark angels.
Just so we are all on even ground.

You have a pretty negative outlook on life to jump to an assumption that I use only the "best" units and not fun ones I like.

Why would I even be wanting to play my dreads if I was That Guy? they aren't very good but I adore them as they have been my fondest and most iconic unit to play for the past 15 years since I was 10.

I know orkz are in the shit and also they are typically the funnest players when I have faced them at a club when I used to go, so I wouldn't throw waac in their faces, not my style ever.

Different Eldar player, but I got into eldar because I'm a fan of the lore, after learning about 40k from a rogue trader campaign.
Bought my first minis before codex, and right before the latest codex dropped.

I've played enough games that I WTFed about a lot of the stuff I read there. Good thing the lore I liked was the aspect warriors, and thought the warp spiders looked like balls.
Even more lucky, because I wanted some transports, and Wave Serpents got brought down from completely broken to just really good.

Talking with the other eldar players in the area, no one liked the broken changes, with the closest thing to a WAAC argument being that one guy thinks the Wraithknight is only 50pts undercost, while the rest of us think it's 100pts.

No. Just take the individual formation if you can. I don't think any of the Gladius only sub formations are particularly good. They're never taken in Battle Company anyways and they're seen as taxes.

knights cost between 325 and 400.
Add 100 pts to a wraithknight at it costs 390.

>>47791938
>>47791938
125 maybe but not 150. look at the 400pts FW knights. 150 pts would mean it costs more than the top FW knight with the HQ upgrade.

The wraithknight still tougher than the top knights, but the difference shrinks, and it's weapons are weaker. Those knights with +1WS/BS and a 3++ save are better than a wraithknight.

Only joined the spectacle at the end, but he had a lot of footslogging infantry, minimal artillery, a flyer (dont know which one 2bh), a Taurus, what looked like small, immobile anti-air cannons and an allied Space Marine detachment that consisted of Centurions, a Tactical Squad in a razorback and a captain. Don't really know my IG yet, so I can't really tell you the specifics on that part.

>>47792061
Aside from perssonal bias? Very little.

Muhreens are generally mad that they haven't won 40k, he could also be a jelly taufag but they usually can't stop talking about their army long enough to make a posts.

Demon players are generally very quiet.

Bottom 4 armies are too busy raggin on one another to care who's on top, sisters are busy being sorry for themselves, IG will always loudly complain that they can't play leafblower and Admech keep their mouth competently shut because they know if they even make a single beep they'll get flamed to fuck for their OP monobuild formation.

Aren't there some Wraith Knights that can't stand up to a regular Knight on the table?

>>
>>47792187
Any WK that lacks a sword will generally lose to a sword Knight, since S10, albeit with HoW if it gets the charge, is hard-pressed to destroy AV13 6HP before it swings back and wins. The problem is that if WK doesn't have a sword, it will have D-guns which will soften up the Knight before combat even happens, or those nasty melta lance things, which I admittedly don't know much about but hey, it's melta, it'll be good against the Knight.

>>47792384
They're SUPPOSED to tank is the thing but they don't. T5 with a 5++ save isn't that impressive. demonic instability and low leadership also means even if they ever lose combat you could see the whole unit disappear.

It's honestly better just to take another summoner and have a free squad of plague bearers doing your tanking for you, but I will say they make exellent bodyguards for nurgle herald who just wants to sit at the back of the board like a summoner with a doom bell.

The rotherd formation requires you to take 7 units of Plague drones or beasts.
Drones start at ~120 for 3 beasts at ~50 for 1.

Mainly that reason i want them, and i really love their fluff as big old pestilent puppies, jumping with joy and piddling acid and bile in their excitement to find new playmates who they then smother, crush and dissolve to death as they roughouse, how they bittlerly mourn the loss of their friend untill they spot a new one.
>>
>>47792401
The top nights have a d melee weapon plus a very powerful gun.

The melee knight has the same number of attacks. 5++ save in melee. And a six shot s7 ap2 concussive gun.
That is weapons than the melee wraithknight

>>47792838
Probably melta. Deep strike them, kill something, laugh as you put them back in reserve to deep strike again when they get ragekilled/blown up by the Knight they took out.
>>
>>47792838
Command squad and commissar in the turox, scions deep strike then die then deepstrike back in again until the command squad dies.
>>
>>47792838
Make the Commissar a Lord Commossar to boost his survivability, give them Melta, or Flamers if you're expecting mass infantry blobs, and go to town as they keep coming back whenever they die.

One of the heroes in DoW3 is an Imperial Knight (piloted by a female, no less) that has double Avenger Gatling Cannons. Think we'll get another new Knight kit since right now only the Renegades can do that? As a fan of dakka knights I'm really hoping so, but who knows, right?

Nothing on regular dreads but maybe a heavy flamer. Always been miffed at the fact the weapon swaps cost points when they start with a multi-melta. Especially assault cannons being so costly.

Supposedly they went with a different art style because they want larger numbers of units on screen than in DoW2 and want the unit micro and overall gameplay to feel more responsive. It looks a little better in the E3 footage at least, but yeah, I agree that it could be a improved.

Kheres all the way on any Contemptor variant though.

Bolters if you think you can always get the charge off or think you'll be facing units at higher initiative/WS. Chainswords otherwise.

You're basically just swapping the to hit/to wound rolls around for the first round of combat against other MEQs then being worse off for the next few rounds of combat. Pointless in any other situation.

It's also worth considering putting power lances on them by the way, people don't suggest it but it's one of the few units in the game that can really make use of them.

>Gab performing a dynamic entry
from what I've read the different heroes and elite units have different costs, so you can't start the mission with the knight and have to buy her partway through. I'm guessing they made a deep strike style entry so that you didn't have to walk her from base every time you got to use her.

>>
>>47793224

I love the Sonic Dread, but it does seem slightly schizophrenic.

On the one hand, can shoot blast master twice if it doesn't move.

On the other, Melee weapon and two template weapons.

So you want it to move and to not move.
>>
>>47793171
>>47793171
See this >>47788481

Each detachment described there has to be made up of units from one army only. But you can take allied detachments.

So for instance you could take a Space Marine Combined Arms Detachment and a Sisters of Battle Allied Detachment and use them together just like that.

Now Space Marines and Sisters are Battle Brothers which means they have no restrictions when working together (except they are not allowed to start the game in each other's transports)

But other armies have restrictions about how close their units can get to each other. You'll have to check the allies table in the main rule book.

Behold the Allies table. Armies operating with each other are either Battle Brothers, Allies of Convenience, Desperate Allies, or Come The Apocalypse.

>Battle Brothers
Benefit from Warlord Traits, can be joined by IC's, are friendly units for psychic powers, repair hull points, embark on transports, and effect reserve rolls. According to a recent FAQ, Battle Brothers CANNOT use each others transports.

>Allies of Convenience
Cannot move within 1" of each other,cannot have any of the benefits listed in battle brothers, and are effected by rules and abilities that effect enemy units.

>Desperate Allies
Are just like Allies of Convenience except they have a One Eye Open rule. Cannot be within 6" of each other or roll a d6. On a One, cannot do anything and flyers most move at minimums and cannot pivot.

>Come the Apocalypse
Just like Desperate Allies, except that they cannot deploy within 12" of each other.

This. At 2500 you'll need anti-vehicle firepower, too, and the Manticore is one of the best ways to crack open super-heavies at long range due to its d3 S10 Ordnance shots. Using the formation to twin-link it and have it ignore cover is icing on the cake. The same is true for the basilisks, though they suffer against AV14 since they're only S9 (about a 50% chance to damage, vs the Manticore's 75%)

At 2500 you can probably get away with a full squadron of wyverns, a full squadron of bassies, and the manticore. Your techpriest can do with some plasma servitors in addition to his servo-claw retinue (you'll be working overtime with those repair rolls, since necron tesla weapons will wear down your armor pretty fast). The plasma weapons are in case your Company Commander rolls the bonus order on Warlord Traits (you can't use Creed, unfortunately). Otherwise they can still reliably put out damage, since they ALSO get twin-linking against the formation's target.

Another upgrade to consider is Volkov's Cane. The Formation rolls at Ld 8 (about sergeant level) but you can place the two squadrons within 6 inches of the Chimera's hull to boost that effective Ld to 11, making orders go off 97% of the time. Also note, that since the 'command vehicle' rule specifies that the order range of *embarked officers* is measured from the vehicle's hull, Volkov's cane still works even though the model is not on the board.

Hand a vox-caster to every infantry unit you've got on the field and you're golden. Rain fire on them.

My friend is going to be rolling heavy in Daemons of Nurgle soon but I feel like he'll never be as aggressive as he should be so despite being melee oriented myself, SM seems naturally better at ranged and I guess a little worse in melee.

Although I'm a little worried about how he's planning to deep strike units.

Ideally I'd love to play Black Templars but I'm on a really tight budget so I can't really justify buying that many conversion kits, sadly.
Which chapter do you play?

>>47792927
Powerfist/Chainfist combo or Powerfist/Plasma cannon.
Its my Khornate Chaos Contemptor Dreadnought though...
>>
>>47794037
I myself play Imperial Guard, though I'm looking to start up a 30k Word Bearers army.

Thinking maybe either Unspeaking Chapter, or Black Comet Chapter.

The Imperial Fists are better than the Black Templars, in my opinion, especially since GW messed with the BT fluff they just don't seem as cool to me anymore.

the original metal model had very heavy metal arms attached via a weak joint, and without pinning the arms fell off a lot.

Dude I have no artistic talent to speak of. I can only hope to achieve even half the quality you have there. You know that one fucked up space marine model people post as a joke? My whole army is going to look like that shit. I'm going to have to make up some shit like The Flaw caused severe defects making everyone look retarded.

I am getting into Scions, not sure what to ally with at 1850. The army needs a distractafex or it crumbles.

Bullgryn squads from the imp guard formation.
1-2 knights.
30 or so space marine scouts to go start on objectives.

yea i have left em out for like a month now so they are building dust. the detail on em is shit cause i was in such a hurry to finish the first batch i completely forgot about highlighting. im fixed to base em once i actually get some better base stuff then fine ballast and grass. also the glare comes from me using a friends shitty camera light to close to my guys faces.

This shit is incredible, but I mean that in both of its definitions. I'll have my chaos buddy play her Nurgle & Slaanesh CSM straight out of this, though.

Literally no-one enjoys this sad loyalist RP when you're punching down on factions whose rules have been neglected. It hasn't been funny in at least a decade. I'm sure you would rather have more players generally & CSM players with kickass armies & wild rules to face down on the table rather than punching bags.
