gently caress white, even small amounts. Pretty pleased with how he turned out none the less, he's been pretty much an auto include since he pumped 3 wounds back into my outnumbered 15-1 captain in my game against Zark at the UK goonpocalypse.

He looks rad. Nice work man

I mean. A powerfist is d3 damage and a melta is 2d6 drop lowest so that's not really comparable

Agreed. It's even written into the rules that it's not as powerful as a melta. Goons will be goons; jeez

Wow how incredibly boring. Idk why they can’t just look at the 40k primarch kits and just rip of their styling. The 40k Guilliman model is just so much more interesting

I'm glad that Custodes are getting all their HH toys 'coz I have no loving desire to play 30k for a long-rear end time. 7th ed sucks and no amount of band-aids will fix it. Beyond that, HH players tend to be on average more toxic that 40k in my experience, that kinda "Look at us, we're a special club" mentality.

Imagine being this retarded

You can make a lot of good arguments for why simplifying 7th down like 8th did was a good idea. But the fundamental rule-set wasn’t what made 7th edition 40k poo poo. It was the formations. Giving units free war gear, insane bonuses, crazy FOCs, ect made a lot of lists super cheesy and un-fun. Also having to bring a white dwarf, a codex (that will be invalidated in 2 months), and a printed out email from GW to have all my rules was ridiculous.

Formations/detachments/whatever are bad for the game

Hixson
Mar 27, 2009

Yeah you’re right formations are fine

Hixson
Mar 27, 2009

Pendent posted:

I don't think most of us think about the formation system at all anymore. In your post you implied how 8th's detachment system is just as broken though, which is objectively not true. There are some issues (see: Shield Captains) but they're a lot more solvable than the clusterfuck that was triptide or whatever.

I guess I didn’t make my point clear: detachments are bad for the game and I think it’s likely they will continue to rise in power levels as new kits come out until they are at the same level of broken or worse than formations in 7th edition. I’m not making a commentary on why 8th is bad or whatever

Before Adepticon there were some recent rumours recently about new Abaddon and Chosen models later this year. Plus there's been lots of whispers about EC, including this artwork from a known GW artist:

Oh you're one of those. I hate to break it to you buddy but the Chaos factions fighting alongside each other is a regular feature of the setting. Just as its a regular feature that Guard fight alongside Space marines and Tyranids fighting alongside Genestealers Cults. Attempting to keep armies that are ostensibly just subfactions of the larger overarching powers separate is pure strain grognardiness born out of the same desire some people have to keep their peas from touching their mashed potatoes on that plate.

Another cross post from last weekend

DrPop posted:

I noticed that Booley's incredible photos lacked TKWG's beautiful Arvus terrain, which was arguably the highlight of the PNW VisV event. Much blood was spilled in front of it during the first game; there was a three-turn long (I think) melee slugfest that involved, at various points:

- a Death Guard Tactical Squad
- Sons of Horus Reavers
- World Eaters assault marines
- a World Eaters dreadnought
- a World Eaters tactical squad
- a World Eaters Devoured Hero
- an Justaerin
- a Sons of Horus Delegatus
- a Death Guard Delegatus
- two Death Guard Destroyers


My Rhino rumbles down the main road of the Hixson table (which was also dope, incredible work homie) during the second game

I don’t think the marines fisted him per se, it was more like an anal beads thing except the beads were gems that made him a demon prince when his prostate was stimulated enough.
