I feel a measure of pride at my Kriegers showing up in the OP.  Also the url tags for the 30k and Black Library threads needs to be fixed. Sadly I'll get my 8th rulebook by next week since shipping from the UK takes a while. But I did order a single Primaris marine from a bitz store that I'm going to paint up in Blood Raven colours. Because I want at least one of those guys until the separate kits show up. Yes, Wayland games is bad. I recommend Element Games instead.

BULBASAUR posted:DkoK are probably my favorite model line from FW. I think it's because they appeal to the historical warham inside me, but space WW1 is just so grim dork in a 80s heavy metal kind of way I honestly just want more DKoK models because they look good. I'd be glad if I just have a small detachment to use as count-as troops for my army. To which I'm really close with, all I technically need is another infantry blob. And like one extra guy because the Grenadier squad I won in an auction only had 9 guys.

Hell, they can even put out test adjustments. I figured it'd be either there in the updated IG codex that they might adjust some of the weapons a bit.

I managed to find a copy of the old Daemonhunters codex where the GKs were just special and not super special awesome like they got later. I will readily admit I like that version the most.

DumbparameciuM posted:Matt Wards stupid bullshit in the codex after that one ruined them super hard IMO Yeah I know that in this case. Hence why I liked their less overdone approach in the previous codex a lot more. Even if they could probably benefited from some of the units that showed up later. (But not the babycarrier.)

Genghis Cohen posted:Going on and on about their eliteness and how many million applicants fail to make the grade for each success is pointless - this narrative is directly countered by the way they appear on the tabletop. Feels to me like like the same can be said for all power armour armies to a certain extent. But the special ally rules they (and the witch hunters) had going seems to limit the number of GKs you could field in your army to make them feel a bit rarer. The 3rd or 4th ed approach is the one I like in this case because GKs aren't really their own fully usable army like they became later on but simply a force you had attached to allied Marines or Guard units.

Beer4TheBeerGod posted:GW has explicitly avoided showing any pictures that combine the Primaris with their midget brethren. Yeah that was one hang up I had with the new rulebook. There are a couple of normal marines showing up here and there but more often they're relegated to the background or as roles that the Bigboys don't have yet such as Devastators. I get they are pushing those guys hard but even that felt a little bit too much.

All you'd really need is a decent head and maybe some clawed hands to make them look a bit like how they originally looked like.

I've got some Blood Ravens but that's only two small Combat Squads and a Contemptor dread. Have a commander (or three) in various disassembled stages alongside three or so squads. It's legal but its a giant hot mess of stuff.
