PierreTheMime posted:Nurgle is not just death and decay, but also the nihilistic embrace of those things. To understand and even enjoy ones demise and revel in the universal life cycle that death and the birth of new things brings. He is both life and death. Nurgle is indeed twisted like all other Chaos gods, but he is the only is who genuinely cares for his followers. He is a jolly patron who likes nothing more than tending his garden and showing you the sights of his creation. People don't call him Great Father Nurgle for nothing. I'm now imagining Papa Nurgle sipping from his World's Best Dad mug and chuckling at the funnies section of the newspaper.

Both the Chaos Marine and Space Marine kits are very out of date and not to scale. C'mon, GW, explain why you won't churn out a new set for your cash cow because molds cost gajillions of dollars.PierreTheMime posted:There's a great little story in the current Chaos Daemons codex where an elite squad of Eldar seers infiltrate into Nurgle's realm to attempt to rescue their captured goddess Isha. They sneak toward Nurgle's base of power, which is literally a mansion at the heart of a fetid swamp/garden, where Isha is held, but get stalled in the mire as daemons become alerted to their presence. When Nurgle discovers them, he quickly rots away the protective spirit stones they had kept on their corporeal bodies to protect themselves while projecting their spirits inside his realm. He then tears their spirits from their bodies and roots them into the swamp, to twist and become trees in his orchard. Dang, I need to read that one. The story about Papa Nurgle being a jolly, fat, farting, chuckling alchemist is what lead me to make an all-Nurgle Daemons army. He's enjoys his job so damned much.

The Tactical Squad has been reboxed at least five times, right? That's counting the Combat Squad horse poo poo they shoveled out years ago. Do they even have an accountant? Do they realize how much money it costs to have graphic designers photograph the minis, edit the box, proofread it in multiple languages, and print them out? The gently caress is wrong with them, release a new kit instead of putting lipstick on an old Stanyer89 posted:I was so mad that my body couldn't even function properly enough to throw them against the wall. Hah, someone at my gaming group was dubbed, "Angry Fred" because he would hurl his casualties into his army box. This was amusing when they were primer black with red oil paint accents, kinda horrifying when I painted an entire Imperial Fists army for him.

That miniature was highly sought-after long after it went out of production, and it was 50/50 whether it was done so as a joke or in earnest. I was commissioned to paint one. By a different player on two separate occasions.

That is so damned fun, reminds me of the early days with my brother. During one batrep I snapped a photo when his Defiler got lucky and smashed one of my Falcons out of the sky, I posed them with the winglets high and the crab claws tearing it down. I'd post the photo but it's deep, deep into obsolete archives.

Space Marines with free Battle Focus and their shooting gets better if you're losing an objectives game. Jesus christ, GW. Also: don't do a thing to help Assault Marines unless you're using them like Swooping Hawks (another tie-in to Eldar, for some reason). Is Gav Thorpe's ghost running rampant?

I had the hammiest dream. Not a nightmare, just perplexing in every regard: We are playing 40k, three player free for all. One is an Ork army on the far side, opposite my Iron Warriors. Between us is a Khorne army painted bright yellow for some reason, it is played by none other than Jack Black for some reason. The game progresses in typical fashion other than we are playing on the most sands next to a lake. Don't ask me how we managed dice rolls. During my turn I notice I have forgotten half my units as their dark armor visually blends-in with the dark sand. Havoks, a Defiler, Marines, and a Forgefiend all lost their chance to act this turn. That's when I notice that the Forgefiend is crushed into the sand. My lamentations are interrupted by all hell breaking loose. Jack loses it. He belts out his signature "comedy" scream, starts stomping models on purpose, runs amok. I give chase but the fat fucker can run. I vault over his massive Blood Slaughterer to draw him in, no luck. He ignores me and keeps running, "Ahhhh!" he screams all the while. I plan on moving his Blood Slaughterer to a corner in the fence to lure him in for a sound beating, that's when I awake in a mental ward. This game isn't healthy. Nichol posted:

Pay me shipping cost for any of these and they're yours (they're heavy, bear that in mind). Nothing wrong with them, but I'm decluttering my living space and the damned things are, again, heavy: 2008 Imperial Guard 2001 Tyranids 2009 Tyranids 2008 Imperial Guard 2005 Tau Empire 2006 Eldar (three copies because people are insane) 2007 Chaos Demons (two copies, mine and a friend's) 2008 Space Marines 2002 Necrons 2007 Orks 2007 Chaos Space Marines APOCALYPSE APOCALYPSE: Reload There's at least one person that can vouch that I'm not an rear end in a top hat, was it Buffalo Chicken with the crazy cool Eldar jetbikes?

If anyone wants the remaining stack of books that haven't been claimed, (Orks, Necrons, Apoc 1 and 2 are claimed) it's $13.45 for a medium Flat Rate box in the United States (lower 48, probably). I'm going to get the platinum upgrade for my account so y'all can PM me the details (since I'm not giving out my Steam ID). Try to stay on top of me, I'm going to wait at least another day or two for requests the\ I'll calculate shipping fees and send the stuff out. Remember, yer gettin' the books free but I ain't paying for shipping. Apocalypse is easily the largest and heaviest (at least I'm not offering the 7th edition rulebook, even though I have a digital version). https://www.usps.com/ship/welcome.htm manchego posted:Could you elaborate a bit on the Orks, goonsir? If you want me to PM you instead I can do that too. I forget which edition is which, this Orks Codex is by Phil Kelly and has the Blood Axe warboss on the cover. Maybe it's the most modern one?  mongol posted:Is this one available? [Apocalypse: Reload] You got it. Proletariat Beowulf posted:Apocalypse: Reload and Necrons; maybe Apocalypse. Reload was claimed by Mongol, you can have the other two. Proletariat Beowulf posted:What's the shipping cost? I don't have PMs, but can be reached at herp derp spamcatcher AT gmail, no spaces.

[Apocalypse: Reload] I need you two to send some kind of contact info to me so I can get this stuff sent to you. I'm just going to mail the stuff and it's up to you goonsires to send me the shipping cost in return. Edit: If you can send Dreadknight bits or anything suitably mechanical arms, guns, or stabby stuff from any game system, that'll work too! I'm modifying a bootleg action figure to be a Dreadknight, so getting bits is a priority for me. I actually received some Tallarn models from Amazon which may be the gooniest thing I have ordered. I have Proletariat Beowulf's email so that much is done.

I have some bases from AberrantGames that I want to plug because they're quality and don't cost a poo poo ton of money like most providers. The sets I have are eight bases for about $4.50 so I suppose times have changed. That deviation die is cool, though, since it has the arrow marker located inside of a transparent D6. That would actually help deviation accuracy quite a bit. http://store.aberrantgames.com/gaac.html

I preordered the rulebook from my local game shop, may as well have something new to read while I'm on the can. If you're on the East coast and spot a Nurgle Demon army lead by a giant Homer Simpson figure with three eyeballs, let me know. The box they were packed in is empty, my deranged ex-fiancee might have thrown them in the street.
