Did they change chaplain dreadnoughts or Bjorn before so that you could target them? Haven't paid any attention to wh40k for a long time.

Slowly starting to pick this up again in my mid 30s . Stripped and re-painted my old metal Seraphim models since all my old Space Marines are apparently now useless. Going for a SoB army and once that is accomplished I will start soliciting for mid-age playmates Also just pre-ordered Stern & Kyganil.

Looks like Empire of Man is winning in 40k. I haven't seen any Xenos for ages.. maybe some Necrons but they are historical pushovers. Even Harlequins have been subjugated and are now fighting in the empire ranks. Maybe GWs long term plan is to have everyone playing Marines in the end so they can re-enact Horus heresy and reset the timeline

I was thinking if having a thin metal sheet that I then cover with a thin game mat and then add magnets to the bottom of my terrain and models. I already put magnets on the bottom of my models since they are so much easier to paint and transport that way. Also easier for when I use movement trays as well.

The entire machine cult is actually worshipping Grungi and being controlled by the squats. It's all a big scam and they have been hiding under the forgeworlds the entire time.

I like from the battle reports I have seen that the game is almost all about holding the objective and killing things is secondary. I don't like the way primaries Marines have been curb stomping everything and that it hasn't even been close. That points balance coming better change things a lot. Necrons skorpekhs seems pretty good but Necrons still seem to suck in general.

Pretty sure GW will call this the greatest sales success in their company history and are extremely pleased and surprised at the huge demand for indominitus. Wonder if corona has made many others like me return to the hobby? Didn't buy the set but pre-ordered the normal rules and will try and find chapter approved later through battle scribe.

Strobe posted:Actually I think you'll find that this BROKEN PROMISE is a HUGE MISTAKE for GW, because a bunch of people can't handle the idea of not being able to pay $200 for their plastic dolls now and may have to wait until LATER THIS YEAR to get the privilege of spending money. Gives them more time to finish painting their backlog. When tournaments start again it will be crazy because people have probably spent months perfecting their painting technique in lack of other things. What probably will happen is that GW will re-launch the box as a start collecting boxes and take out the 1 or 2 models that were unique. Someone said September for a sister's box- does anyone have confirmation for this?

My sisters I am working on. Definitely not up to a great standard like you guys but it's been fun. Started with some old resin zephyrim that I had for 20 years and then decided to pick up the hobby again. Cheap paints , cheap brushes but then I added some washes from GW. Should have bought a thinner primer because a lot of the faces and details are hosed up. But.. battle ready P.s spot the Necron warrior you got for free from an old White Dwarf.

GW is definetly popping their champagne and celebrating their huge success. They pulled if their largest launch ever and it went so well that people are literally crying over not being able to get their product. Despite the challenges to the workforce in view of corona.

I started to watch art of war wh40k on YouTube that is very geared towards competitive tournament play. They have a nice setup for twitch streaming to. It's not so much nonsense as Table Top Tactics ( I like both TT channels though but tactics are a bit over the top).

Ordered 2 boxes troops of sisters and the Domi and celestian box. Got 3 troops from GW.. same price and can't be bothered to ask them to change. Guess they are easy to convert anyway and not like anyone can tell the difference if they are not in to sisters. Makes a good basis for a Order of Martyred lady army as well.

SteelMentor posted:Battle Sisters and Celestian boxes are the same box. Box builds Battle Sisters, Dominions and Celestians all from the same kit. I think Celestians could be great. I saw some tourney armies running 30 of them. Rerolling everything seems powerful and if they are bloody rose and have an Imagifier close they can even fight a bit + Preacher as well. Shoot ,rr everything with extra AP on pistols, Then 4 st4 attacks with -1 ap per model in CC rr everything. Plus bodyguard if you need it.

I didn't like the preacher models so I made my own from an old pewter scout marine Sgt I had. One of the bits was a Rosarious that came from a sister pack that fit nicely in to his empty hand. Now I can come up with a fun backstory that he retired from the Space Marines after everyone turned Primaries and decided to join the Adeptus ministerium. His former chapter is unknown since he doesn't like to talk about it since he is pewter I sadly couldn't swap his his head but I guess even a priest needs a radio.

Was so excited that I went on to the GW site to browse and saw that they have my favorite model ever in stock. Canoness Veridyan. Love that female Judge Dredd look. So bought that and some more paint, cus you always need more.

I made one of my veteran sergeant small Marines in to a preacher. He now travels with the Sororitas and spreads the word of the emperor with his chainsword. He was holding an auspex scan so I just replaced it with a Rosarious. And I put a tonsure on him with some clay Preach!

Lori posted:I have been playing a lot lately, and something that has been happening very consistently is people in my friend circle conceding after the first 1-2 rounds. We've been playing 2000 point games and setting up plenty of terrain, but it seems that 90% of the time that the game has already been decided. Is this a common issue? Are we playing way too aggressively or something? Last night I watched Tabletop Titans , Necrons vs Ultra Marines and the entire game I was sure UM would win with a huge margin but somehow the Crons won in the end by playing their mission objectives.

I mean one player just needs one turn of bad dice for it to change. Also maybe reflect afterwards what you could have done differently to change the outcome, moves, load out , units ect. There is some skill involved as well not just random luck. A good player with a bad army will be able to beat a bad player with an OP army some times
