My friend saw me placing the markers and the look of "WTF is that?"

I'm still getting my head around the rules. I'm more of a collector Haha. Is that the equivalent of like deep striking fron reserves?

I place markers during deployment that I only know what unit is going there and have to reveal them at the start of my turn
So I get a turn where the other player can pretty much only move then my guys pop up
So it's a real advantage to go second

Good luck. I don't think I'm ever going to get to the point of doing NMM, but it does look INCREDIBLE when it's done well.
Also. Did I ever mention how much I hate painting Yellow?
feral ingot
Don't get Imperial Fist then
median pumice
Oof. Yellow is hard to paint. Apparently it takes multiple shades?
And yeah imperial fists. If I played Space Marines I'd do them but their paint job is rough to do apparently
feral ingot
Shading yellow is annoying too
But the easiest way to do it is to do it with shades of brown
median pumice
Oh wow. Really? I'd have never thought of that
sour hill
I'm doing Tor Garadon right now.
And yeah. I need to do multiple layers to ensure I have good coverage.
Anything super bright/light (yellow and white) have to be absolutely unforgiving.
sour hill
Yeah. I primed in grey and did a base coat of wraithbone but it still doesn't have the coverage I'd like.
Just hoping once it's completely put together it will help.
And doing a lot of thin layers again and again .

The crystals needed for the weapon to fire, are taken from a mineral vein on the Mining World Cinderus XI. Created when Heretic Psykers were slaughtered and buried beneath the lava rivers on the planet, after a failed plot to kill the Planetary Governor, the crystals cause a loud crackling nosie to be emitted by the Volcano Cannon when fired. This noise, which some claim are the final screams of the the dead Psykers, has been known to drive those who fight beside the weapon insane; though the tank or Titan crews themselves have never been reported to suffer from these ill effects. As a result units of infantry escorting vehicles and Titans using the Volcano Cannon are subject to periodic purges. The Imperium sees this as an acceptable price to pay for deploying such a devastating weapon on the battlefield

90% of these new reveals were already partially revealed before :/
hoary ermine
and then it gets tranbslated back down to the design teams
elfin yew
GW has shown they cannot work on everything
lapis tundra
Hope friday gets better
hoary ermine
sort of yeah, hobo

Im rooting for these models because their cybernetics look really useable
right uh @dusky mango above
image and explanation
dusky mango
thank you
sour hill
Why the fuck do we need to pick and choose armies and groups to get content for. They should be able to pretty consistently update us into 9th edition instead of trickle feeding pieces/parts for each army.
It's kind of a joke.

The construction team makes display plates, creates systems for the painting team etc
hoary ermine
Why the fuck do we need to pick and choose armies and groups to get content for....
marketing and sales
elfin yew
Because 40K Gw is pathetic lul
lapis tundra
silence robophile
Saw that
hoary ermine
TLDR: Space marines sell GREAT and powerful
crisp forge
fuck marketing and sales lol
hoary ermine
so, make more spacemarines
sour hill
I understand marketing reasons.
crisp forge
yeah because they shot themselves in the foot
hoary ermine
like, space marines make up 40% or so of the sales
crisp forge
"why does nobody buy xenos"
hoary ermine
PARTLY because people see outdated xenos models
crisp forge
maybe try to push them lol
hoary ermine
PARTLY because BIG MAN MARINE MAN pulls people in
my sister, a real girl
wasnt interested in the tau
and shes a massive fucking gundam weeb
she went ''Those armored dudes look cool, can i paint some''
sour hill
Space Marines are also some of the most vast in number too. All the different chapters, models, etc. So I get why it's literally 40% when it makes up more than 40% of the total model base. But they should be supporting the additional groups/armies as well.
dusky mango
maybe try to push them lol
"uh yeah but can we garuntee that will sell well in the immediate short term? No? WELL THEN LETS NOT INVEST"
elfin yew
Space marine codex is bloated and needs to be trimmed
Too much to update from ancient models
crisp forge
The issue is the GW marketing team being twats
hoary ermine
Okay so, i convert a lot right?
sour hill
@elfin yew Agreed. As well as chapter specific codex for each group. Just like xenos should have their group specific codex's.
hoary ermine
Even WITHOUT the main source of marine hull plates and gubbinz
Most of my decorations come from marine models
sour hill
Instead of releasing one massive resource and then supplementing it to death.
hoary ermine
Another part comes from GSC because they have loads of tools
and the rest is a massive random
sour hill
SoB are probably selling exceptionally well right now, so we're seeing a lot of that junk coming out to support it.
Meanwhile I'm looking at Tyranids deciding if I want to start jumping into painting those models since none are going to be released for probably another edition or two.
LMFAO
Harlequins left in the dust.
There's so many xenos just rotting away.
Where they could have diversity and expand sales.
dusky mango
I got into 40k through marines. I want to see them continued but hell do I wish that the Eldar would get an update
If Craftworld Elfar got an extensive model update I would buy them
sour hill
I'm not a fan of Eldar, but if they need an update and new models? Why not push them. They have the resources to work on multiple.
So maybe they don't release 10 new models for each faction at once.
dusky mango
I'm not a fan of Eldar, but if they need an update and new models? Why not push ...
"uh yeah but can we garuntee that will sell well in the immediate short term? No? WELL THEN LETS NOT INVEST"
sour hill
But 1-2 for each army/group/etc.

Big brain strat, ynnead is resurrected when all eldar are dead purely so GW will stop getting requests for new eldar models
elfin yew
Im so glad it seems the ynnari will fade into plot irrelevance
Fuck the ynnari all my eldar homies hate the ynnari
crisp forge
Im gonna be surprised if ynnead ever comes back until 40k gets its end times in 50 years or so when all the eldar die lol
void orchid
Stagnant eldar plot wins the day

Fuck the ynnari all my eldar homies hate the ynnari

@elfin yew What terrain?
obtuse sinew
yo that looks cool as heck
void orchid
I love me some good pipes
sour hill
@elfin yew Thanks for sharing. You're right; it looks fantastic.
hoary ermine
With yknow, existing terrain
sour hill
I have 0 terrain today.
Eventually I will build my dioramas.
So I'll want options to make it happen.
sour hill
And as many mechanicus pieces/parts I can get for my custom Emperor piece I'm going to sculpt I'll take.
So all these tubes/pipes/etc. are appreciated for the Golden Throne.
sour hill
I've just got a lot of shit to figure out and sculpt/paint right now.
hoary ermine
Ah yeah
sour hill
Working through hero HQs for SMs right now..
And then I have to work on some Ork/Eldar/Tyranid hero HQs (or large beasties).
And then armies to fill in the diorama.
And then AoS sculpts for the 4 Chaos Gods.
My bank is ruined.
elfin yew
Cant wait for them to announce the next 30 filler books tommorow

trim hemlock
Missed the stream but did GW actually seriously show off 5 different models they already previewed already, two of which from a previous Warhammer stream?
twilit cliff
Or just regular beastmen sets
compact umbra

quaint halo

quaint halo
So found that bit on my side of the ocean
$12 for the part $56 for shipping from the UK
compact umbra
Lmao- I wish I lived in the UK just so buying Warhammer shit will be a bit easier
quaint halo
It's more shipping out the ass cuz of Brexit
void orchid

sour hill
Hehe. USA bad.
void orchid

Playing on nightmare difficulty wtf
sour hill
LOL
I'm in the midwest too.
So I feel it.
Well. To some degree.
But a lot of idiots.
quaint halo
I do live in the states
I just want one bit and don't want to waste a whole kit just for the head
But also yeah we practically are in 40k
Waking up every morning wondering who messed up something that could be fixed reasonably
vivid rune
Yeeeup
There are somedays where i feel like a blank
In the way that people will go out of their way for some random fucking reason to ruin mine while im litterally doing nothing but trying to exsist

vivid rune
No
plush swift
you sold your soul for Pogs?!
vivid rune
Lmao
sour hill
@vivid rune Looks dope so far.
I really ought to just go the route of fully assembling my mini. I spend too much time painting places that will be completely covered up anyways.
quaint halo
All done with the clipping
median pumice
Nice!
I was always of the mind to assemble first then paint. But sometimes there are places you need to paint first then assemble.... I can never figure that out unti after the fact lol
quaint halo
It's not as bad as me going through all the effort to paint the pilot and piping on Master Grade Gundam models that will never see the light of day
bold copper
Bladeguard finished
median pumice
Nice metallic effect on the sword!
bold copper
iron hands steel and aethermatic blue contrast paint
works very well for power swords, I think
opal egret
Wish I could paint with any skill.
I hesitate to even so much as base coat my Guardsmen, seeing as how Ork boyz gave me so much trouble.
median pumice
It takes practice for sure but you gotta start somewhere, right?

I mean they did just release Mortis. Which was pretty good, but no Saturnine. So at least maybe build the hype for it?

So, aside from the obligatory HH novel, what hopes do y'all have?

THRAKKA BOOK GETTING RELEASED
