Two of them have literal wings, the Emperor had no idea what he was doing.

Edit: Just the one, I thought one of the traitors had wings too. Probably just remembering when one went daemon prince.

There's this guy at one of the stores here that gets really pissy when I pronounce it Leman with a soft e instead of a hard e. "I've played space wolves for 15 years and I know how my primarch's name is pronounced" and etc when I'm using my tanks. I just ignore him and keep saying it.

Debating between a Knight and a Baneblade with the IG. I really want to get the Knight on the table, but as far as I can see the Baneblade is marginally cheaper than a Knight Crusader, and brings way more guns - the tradeoff is that it's not as good in melee, but I'm not sure that's as valuable as losing some of the guns.

e: also the Knight is less of a pig to deploy since its base is smaller than the Baneblade chassis and the tables at BIG are terrain-heavy.

Waiiiiit a minute. Those aren't spires that you can shoot across. It looks like a Space Hulk with gangs....

quote:

The scenarios in the Necromunda: Underhive box focus on confrontations fought in the labyrinthine tunnels of the lower hive cities where many newly-founded gangs first seek to establish themselves. Once your gang has gained some notoriety, the Necromunda: Gang War expansion will allow you to take the action into the open spaces of the manufactory domes above.

Really trying not to be excited by Necromunda just yet. There's a new Tyranid codex around the corner my main 40k army, an Eldar codex for my 2nd army, and Adeptus Titanicus on the radar for next year. Epic was my first ever GW game, Necromunda my second.

At this rate I may as well just have my payslip mailed direct to GW.

40k being so beloved by actual fascists is so strange considering that it was pretty loving left-wing at the start. The Imperium is basically one massive example of fascism left unchecked, and it runs as deep as even Ghazghkull being named after Thatcher.

Yeah, much like any other satire of fascism, it gets unironically beloved by actual fascists.

Also, the Feminist 40k FB is kinda cringey, as much as I agree 100% with their mission. Like the guy who had to be convinced to change his Youtube name from Genderstealer Cucktist.

Going to babby's first tournament this saturday. My army is 80% painted, and I am excited to play something else than my buddy's Chaos cheese FW army.

I'm bringing a mix of normal and bigmarines, a few tanks and a squad of Adeptus Custodes in a Land Raider, lead by Inquisitor Greyfax. Not much unit spam, but I'm bringing a 10 man Hellblaster squad backed up with a lieutenant, captain and ancient as my firing base.

When you go to no-stakes tournaments, do you run into a lot of WAAC, or could I possibly run into some other chillhams?

Even at big events, like 10% of the players are actually trying and determined to win, and the rest are just dudes who want to get more games in a weekend than normal (except the 1 dude who always ends up mid-table, who sucks but thinks he's hot poo poo and should be fighting for the top places).

Nothing but stuff that alrleady has the Miltarum Tempestus Keyword can have that keyword. However, MT stuff doesn't break faction purity for other regiments. So your other stuff can be Cadian or Valhallan or whatever, and your Scions stay MT, and everyone is happy. MT don't get their OWN doctrine unless they are in a pure MT detachment, but that's all they lose.
