I was surprised at how much stuff was completely spot on in the translate though. I didn't touch a word of it, just dumped it here. EDIT: Wait I just realized the best thing from 8th???? We can just loving fire weapons from whereever on a vehicle????

I think that's a leak from every faction but Genestealers so far, even if just a unit each. Any thoughts on Guardsmen so far? They seem about as I expected.

Leman russes can be fielded in squadrons still and predators can't, gently caress off. People are saying a russ with a battle cannon is 172 points. I guess I have to buy into guard again? There's a guy on 4chan taking pictures of poo poo.

One thing that really annoys me looking at the grey Knight leaks is that the "all the rules you need on one sheet" is a complete lie, because they all only list the standard gear and say they can take equipment from the equipment list. I hadn't looked in detail at the other leaks and it is probably the same across all, but these are the first I really liked at. Not much unexpected out of grey knights I think. The new psyker rules suck because they all use the same discipline. Purifiers purifying flame is now a buff to smite if within 3" of the Target.

Oh, basic nemesis force falchion is AP -2 and D3 damage, and the weapons just go up from there. Gatling psilencer is heavy 12, which could be fun. Khisanth Magus fucked around with this message at 05:56 on May 31, 2017 |

Looks like you definitely can tie tanks up in melee with cheap suicide units and stop them from shooting then, since the baneblade has a rule that specifically lets it fall back and shoot, and can shoot while in melee. Sounds annoying. Too bad the autocannon is still heavy 4, it used to be heavy 4 TL. Punisher still 100% hilarious

Yeast posted:Power Levels are hilarious. Yeah, I saw someone complaining about this and then getting shouted down on Reddit for being a WAACer. Which is hilarious when the system that has huge exploitable power swings and allows for total min-maxing of equipment seems way more WAAC-friendly than just keeping a point list totaled up.

BuffaloChicken posted:Just finished a bunch of special weapon Acolytes, here's one screaming in impotent rage about a possible (very minor) ambush nerf: Ooh, I love the color scheme you picked on these guys. Really makes the yellow power tools and red dynamite sticks pop, and it's a nice contrast from the lavender and blue most of the Cult has for a default paint job. I'm still finding myself wondering what colors would work for Cult models. I have a lot of emeralds and yellows for a Warmachine Everblight paint project I'm working on, with these guys being my next target, but I don't think such loud colors would work well for them.

Yes, I got really into the 30k scene here. I was excited about 8th edition but it's not looking that my marine army meshes with it well so it'll probably stay 30k.

Man, AdMech took a fuckton of hits. Emanatus on the Dunecrawlers is now just 5+ with rerolls of 1. Transauranic Arquebus can no longer move and shoot. Galvanic Rifles have 30" range rapid fire, 6's give the gun -1 AP. Radium Carbines do 2 damage on 6's (like now.) Doctrina Imperatives are gone, just canticles across the army. I guess I'll see how they play, but I don't feel like they're improved much. Feels like they've been knocked down. I'll post pages shortly.

Since kastelans and datasmiths are split there might not be any mixed toughness stuff.

BuffaloChicken posted:Yup! Wanted to combine the look/colors of my existing Catachan, like these Grenadier Veterans: I'm still dying for this edition to tell me if Cult alliances are "and" or "or". Being able to freely pair the three factions together in a GSC army would be incredible, and the Faction Focus page was painfully unclear.
