oh, i guess that's why you called me.

160 points for a ws3 close combat mc with a 5+ save, no movement options, and a 30% chance of not being able to function on its own turn lol


and what's the other one? a 205 point zoanthrope replacement but worse in every conceivable way? stellar.

It's really kind of astounding how ugly and generic the newer monstrous creatures look. I just can't understand where the inspiration went - like they're totally out of gribblies and now all they can do is photoshop them around, make certain gribblies bigger. It's like they're trying to make a giant-oval-base-sized version of every tyranid that already exists.

this is literally all modern gw design, though? all the new kits reek of cargo cult modelers just kind of oddly copy-pasting pieces of other models (actual copy-pasting in the case of the promo photos) because they think it's the "40k look" without any hint of original or critical thought. see: centurions, orkanauts, dreadknight, taurox, every new tyranid since 4th edition, the new space wolf tennis shoe plane

no, you idiots. the idea is that literally any activity in existence has been called "fun" by somebody. people mutilate themselves, eat literal poo poo, send death threats to random women, post on dakkadakka, watch honey boo-boo, and kill black people because it's "fun"

the word is loving meaningless. even worse is that you use it as an excuse to cover up for terrible rules. X army has a book full of units that commit suicide and are incredibly useless? it's okay because we're forging a narrative of FUN, leave your standards at the door of the gw store

hey so this big $110+ model that's coming out that doesn't have enough dice to fire its primary psychic attack even once out of its max 3 times might look like complete unplayable poo poo but trust me when i say that it's fun as hell to be frustrated by an expensive but intentionally non-functional unit

Somebody called me into the thread earlier. Here's my perspective.

Can my genestealers take feeder tendrils, implant attacks, or enhanced carapaces?
Can my warriors take spinefists, fleshborers, enhanced carapaces, or leaping?
Can my carnifexes use 2 guns as was standard for a decade? Can they take rending claws, deathspitters, chitin, carapace, or enhanced senses?
Can I take flesh hooks on any of my non-character units? When will I be allowed to use the grenade rules again?
What about the Parasite of Mortex? Can I take that?
Can I take Ymgarl Stealers?



Is there a formation or DLC pack that lets me use my now illegal 4000 points of army?

Is there a GW FFG thread like there is an FFG Star Wars thread? Been playing a load of Forbidden Stars recently and was looking to discuss it a bit.

Forbidden Stars belongs in the Board Game thread. There's no need to be such a unique snowflake.
