Oh man, I was torn between the white base with either Blue, Orange or the Green. The Tesseract Glow paint came out so it sold me on the green, but the Orange done the same way would be brutal awesome!

It works!





I'm finally into the more interesting models so there'll be less white. I also need to learn how to take better pictures apparently.

Got some drones done, just a few more things and I'll have a fully painted 2k list.

I didn't put forth a ton of effort on these markerlight drones as I should have put blue on some part of the bottom, but not bad for 12 models and bases in one sitting.

You have the best Indomitus paint scheme by far in my opinion. This look so amazing.

I've made some further adjustments to my post. Principally, I've added in some notes for Custodes and Sisters of Silence, mentioned the Psychic Awakening, listed the PA book for each faction as they came up, and adjusted Sisters of Battle slightly.

Its my party
and I'll die if
I want to
I have a lot of painted guard



Though i painted them back in 3rd when I was in university. I had just read All Quiet In The Western Front and decided to based my army on WW1 Germans. Sadly, I had no idea that Nazis were going to be a thing again, and WW1 Germans are not that far removed from Nazi loving Shitbags, so now I barely use them. I plan on repainting them, at least their armor, a more US or Soviet Green at some point to make them look less like they belong to some Wehraboo.

I also have a lot of Ultramaines


I started Ultramarines in Rogue Trader because my mom had Ultramarine Blue in her paints, so that's what I did. If she had a decent yellow or red I might have ended up with Fists or Blood Angels (or maybe Fleshtearers or Blood Drinkers because they were a thing back then). Though if Salamanders had been Green rather than black with all these cool flames all over them, I probably would have gone with them.

I also have Iron Warriors


Years ago all my gaming buddies decided do an escalation league with Chaos Marines and I chose Iron Warriors because they'd be the easiest to paint. Though with the newer models and the HH kits, I've been replacing my 3rd edition ones with newer stuff

I also have Sisters


Sisters was an army I always wanted to make, but never did because, well, GW didn't make it easy. Even when I worked for them i never got more than 2 squads and a canoness. As soon as the new ones were announced I committed to getting them. I have some weird idea that I won't buy any until I've painted what I Bought. That's been sorta true, as i didn't buy a bunch until i had painted the stuff i bought on release. I went Argent Shroud mostly because I wanted to paint something Silver rather than just bare metal, also their rules are pretty solid.

I also have Tau, Necrons, Space Wolves, Thousand Sons, Death Guard and sorta Admech. I bought Forgebane mostly for the Necrons but I really like the ADmech stuff, though I know it will be something that I won't do anything with for ages.

Woo.

First up we now have HEAVY Intercessors. Because that's clearly what was needed.



Both are wearing Gravis armor.

And the multipart Assault Intercessors, Bladeguard Vets and Eradicators. Apparently Multi meltas are getting a damage upgrade:


Oh and the Assault Intercessor multipart kit comes with thunderhammer now. That kit is going to fly off the shelves just because of that.

Then we have the new Storm Speeder. Which is.... yeeeeaaah.

As mentioned on the stream they're troops.

And the next reveal is that the supplements for Blood Angels, Death Watch, Space Wolves and Death Guard have been announced and apparently will be out this year.

Not sure why they're releasing the DG codex before the CSM one though.

And they even teased a new DG unit:

They finally, FINALLY announced the Imperial Armor Compendium. So FW units finally get 9th edition rules. Which includes new rules for Kriegers.

I think the speeder would be improved by eliminating the marine in the turret and making it just an auto turret which seems like it might be a pretty simple conversion.

Sucks there's no non-Marines this year aside from Death Guard. I'd be so excited if Tyranids got even half the same treatment Necrons are getting. But maybe the Forge World Tyranid units will get a boost?

The next couple of months are going to be rough for Xenos (well and Chaos players too for that part) until their respective codexes come out. Worst of all we probably won't hear much about it until Christmas or something so my friends whining about it is going to be ceaseless until then.

I'm not a fan of the new vehicles generally (too angular, too contemporary, insufficiently related to older designs) but this one is aesthetically similar enough to the legacy speeder that I think it "works" (if you already liked the old speeder design, that is)?

:shrug:

E: turret marine is gonna get the ceramite melted off he helmet though?

E2: Are the load-outs variable/"Chinese Menu" (AtKSTD): "Pick one turret, one hull gun, one sponson gun" or is it all pre-scripted?

I'm amazed that they didn't swap at least one of the Marine books with a Xeno book. I wonder if COVID-impacted production had anything to do with it since it's easier to pop out more Marines.

But I'm taking solace in the fact that I'm not even able to play right now because I'm in the US, so I can focus on collecting and painting and not worry about 3-6 months of Marine meta.

Things I've spotted trying to scrape hints of new stuff out of that new codexes video:

-Death Company unit mixes up guys from the regular and Assault Intercessor kits.

-New Death Guard terrain piece, which is a big bulbous furnace and seems to have two parts. Also, they've got Easy to Build Plague Marines and Plague Marines and Poxwalkers from Dark Imperium on display in their video, both of which are currently discontinued, although I don't know if that means anything as they kept using those Dark Vengeance CSM Chosen to illustrate CSM codexes long after those'd gone off sale.

-Couldn't spot anything worth scraping out of the Space Wolves and Deathwatch videos except that I appreciate they gave the Space Wolf Reivers a custom color scheme with a darker grey, only using the Space Wolf baby blue on the shoulder and knee pads.

Nah, it follows the regular pattern of pushing out Marine books out first because they're the most played armies and then Xenos follow in order of importance.

That remains to be seen but I figure it might just be a regular GW release since the rumors say that they're the ones handling the rules writing for that nowadays.
