I’m not wholly convinced that necrons, whose number one issue is “can’t pack enough anti-tank cost efficiently” have a snowball’s chance in hell against either of those lists, so play whichever you’re intending to take to a tournament and use it as a chance to practice positioning etc.

Haven't played a Space Marine army since the Armageddon book was a thing. No idea why I never started them sooner, but I'm hooked. Terminators, bikes and plasma are seriously some of my favorite things in 40k. FWIW, I currently do not own any Hellblasters or Azrael. May change eventually though.

That looks like a lot of effort went into the layout, which makes me think it's legit. Plus it's surprisingly consistent, and calling them "codes" is exactly what I can imagine GW doing.

Mephrit will be NASTY on some units. For example, if the codex keeps the Veil of Darkness as it is now, an overlord dropping 10 gauss immortals next to something and letting rip with 20 S5 AP-3 shots.

My opinion of Fire Warrior is that is was the worst retail video game I ever purchased. And I say that having once bought Battlecruiser 3000AD: All Aspect Warfare from a bargain bin. That may have been a laughably non functional broken piece of garbage but Fire Warrior was still somehow more offensive.

So it turns out that I really am likely going to maintain a pace of 5 hours per model. That's... bad considering that after tomorrow I will have 429 points painted and will want to be able to field 3000 in 172 days. Since I already have the models I'm leaning towards this for the first 1500...pre:[INSERT SPACE MARINE CHAPTER HERE] - 1470 Headquarters Primaris Librarian Primaris Lieutenant w/ Power Sword Captain in Gravis Armor Troop 5 Intercessors w/ Grenade Launcher, Power Sword 5 Intercessors w/ Grenade Launcher, Power Sword 5 Intercessors w/ Grenade Launcher, Power Sword Elite 6 Aggressors w/ Auto Boltstorm Gauntlets and Fragstorm Grenade Launcher Fast Attack 3 Inceptors w/ Assault Bolters 6 Inceptors w/ Plasma Exterminators Heavy Support 5 Hellblasters w/ Plasma Incinerators My ultimate goal is to field a fully painted army that, given the amount of time I put into it, has a chance of getting a high painting score. Thoughts?

I hate models where one hand needs to be glued to something another is holding. I need three hands to hold everything in place, and sometimes it seems impossible not to have a gap. I improvised on the other two Hive Guard using some Tyrant Guard arms. If I care enough I'll GreenStuff the hands on the gun that are supposed to be attached to the other arm, but since it's a bunch of blobs on a gun that already has a bunch of alien-looking blobs on it, I might just paint it anyway.

It's kind of what I hoped all the subfaction traits would be I hope it's real because it's a really good set of traits all round. Powerful and way more creative than we've seen previously. -1 to hit notable by its absence, here's hoping that's a signal for its death.

Nephrek turning all your cyberdudes into Wraiths loving owns, even moreso if there's a way to let some units advance and charge. I used to run really melee-heavy Necron lists back in the day and it would be a dream to do it again.

The Sex Cannon posted:Figure out a quicker way to paint your models. a.k.a. the two cans of brown & green spray paint on a helmeted squad, bit of metal brushed on the weapons, a quick coat of black ink everywhere and some basing. For when you're really in a hurry and don't care. Does mean later you'll probably want to start over though.
