Okay people that are reading the new Codex, I've got a start collecting box for Necrons, a box of Praetorians, and I'm looking to get two Forgebane halves. What sort of list can I make out of that? Should be an overlord, two Crypteks, Triarch Stalker, 12 Warriors, 10 Immortals/Deathmarks, 15 Praetorians/Lychguard, some scarabs, 6 Wraiths.

Starts kinda reasonable (Angron + World Eaters), starts to dive into fantasy land (Black Legion/Wolves big box), goes over the edge (Kroot Codex) then just keeps going (Russ having two forms) Magnificent.

A Wolves/Orks box would actually be more believable considering that new model releases for both armies are already rumored.

Seriously, seriously, seriously, seriously hoping this Summer of Slaanesh thing comes true. They're my favourite god yet the only one I haven't collected some semblance of an army for. Either they play kinda arse (AoS Slaanesh, Slaanesh Daemons) or their models aren't ageing gracefully (Noise Marines). I need to justify buying up 30 Diazenettes to myself somehow.

Sometimes it’s been nearly wash/shade consistency) and I’m doing multiple really thin coats, and it still looks like poo poo compared to the rest of the model. To get Averland to look right on my SW shoulders is prime white -> base yellow -> second base yellow -> 2-3 coats of Averland -> wash sepia.

The black legion/wolves box I would not be surprised at either as the tau leaker said they were were one of the later codicies at the end of summer and I think that they were getting a release of some kind (I am cannot remember with any degree of certainty about that last one).

When people say there are rumors of Space Wolves and Orks getting new models, do they mean new units? Or a complete refresh of the entire model line? Kind of curious how often GW revamps the look of entire armies, but part of me suspects this is why these Codexes are supposedly being saved for last.

Speaking of rumours take with the usual mountain of salt but I was told recently one of the two big summer releases will be a massive genestealer cults expansion, with the intention being to release conversion kits to allow them to be used as chaos cults as well. Quote: "they're going to be one of our biggest lines after this" and "people who complain about xenos not getting love will have to shut the gently caress up".

More Chaos forces and letting xenos use some Imperial models seems like the opposite of Xenos getting love...

Kind of curious how often GW revamps the look of entire armies, but part of me suspects this is why these Codexes are supposedly being saved for last. Wolves will get a Primaris upgrade kit and maybe a couple of characters but unless they're adding outright new stuff they're not going to get new plastics. Basically everything in the range is modern plastics and GW is averse to replacing those for the sake of it. Orks have more units still Finecast-only iirc and some really ancient stuff in the line (Wartraks/Warbuggies) so there's more chance of them, but again if a unit is already available in plastic I think it's highly unlikely we'd see it replaced. Kommandos/Tankbustas as a dual kit, Buggies/Traks same, and possibly a plastic regular Warboss is my guess. Orks had a big push to plasticise most of their stuff in about 2010/11 and those are the units which stand out for still being Finecast only.

Orks will at the very least get a plastic warboss ala the cryptek because the only way to get a hq for orks in store is to buy a box of meganobz, which I imagine isn't great for people wanting to start collecting orks.

Liquid Communism posted:9th Edition. I'm really enjoying people sneeringly posting 'what happened to the Year of Xenos GW???' on the 40k page and the rep wearily explaining for the millionth time that it was a thing made up by BoLS or whoever and they never said any such thing. Even better when it's on posts about Forgebane with a massive xenos presence and released to coincide with a xenos book. Tiger Millionaire posted:Orks will at the very least get a plastic warboss ala the cryptek because the only way to get a hq for orks in store is to buy a box of meganobz, which I imagine isn't great for people wanting to start collecting orks. Yeah this seems likely, and probably redoing the Start Collecting since iirc that doesn't have an HQ in right now since Painboyz moved?

Corrode posted:I think I somehow have 3 of these. I should dig my Orks out sometime and take stock. Yeah I know the feeling. I've still got an untouched 6th edition starter set of plastics. If I ever refurbish my old chaos marines into something vaguely modern I'll grab a Cypher and find a use for the lot of them since it's entirely dark angels & chaos. Big starter boxes have always been the best value for money. DancingShade fucked around with this message at 11:05 on Mar 14, 2018 |

DancingShade posted:But Orks have a plastic warboss. I don't understand the issue. There’s Warboss Grukk in a box set with some Nobs that is still on sale. And of course you can always run AoS Weirdboys as 40K ones and ditto a lot of the Ironjaws stuff. I’d just be happy with some plastic Tankbustas to be honest. Most of the core stuff in the range is plastic already and very well made (apart from Trukks, gently caress them and the instruction manual for them even harder). A price drop on Mega Nobz would be nice but that’s never going to happen. You can buy 5 very nice termies for the cost of 3 of them.
