LMFAO

#

I'm trying

#

I want to paint a Noise Marine, a larger Tyranid figure, a Solitaire, etc.

#

Building up a ton of shit but not painting it makes me sad.

#

Noise Marine I'm stoked to paint though. We're gonna do it with Black Metal corpse paint.

I mean the tank itself is very simple to make an I think msot are

But like tiny things like tracks where you need a doctors hand to fit it in

That stuff I hate.

took a proper look at W&G now and i think i found where the issue some people have with it lays

#

but also

#

its a super customisable tabletop

#

so if you dont want players to have too much gear or powerful talents, just say no

That doesn't look like Doomrider

#

No, its not Doom rider.

And killing a titan isn't even out of Doomriders skills

green cave
#

Oh, and even @edgy cipher pls, i'm interested in hearing (reading to be precise but eh) what you think of W&G

edgy cipher
#

I haven't played W&G yet so I cannot say, I did read the rules however, from what I gather, its a solid system easy to manipulate but that lacks a bit of depth.

#

There aren't much mechanics or feats etc that truly change a character's way of playing, the only ones that comes to me are the ones for charisma based character like Gallows Humour

green cave
#

So you think that the dice pool system is good or at least decent enough?

edgy cipher
#

I find it too swingy in my opinion

#

Good thing the game gives you a lot of rerolls or dice manipulation like Wrath or Glory dies

#

Then again I come from 3.5 when its easy to reach +20 in a skill before level 12 and then choose the action (always do 10).

green cave
#

Same

edgy cipher
#

A rpg where, if you are good in something you'll almost guaranteed to have success in it.

#

I've saw streams of people playing W&G, having the max 12 dice in a skill check and get a 1 and a complication

#

Also I get that complications are supposed to spice things up, but when you got your guy that has 1/6 to have a weird outcome at every check you do ...

#

And I say that as an IG player from the tabletop

green cave
#

I personally, talking only with knowledge of the rules and no practical experience, think that the d100 system in only war is better than the dice pool system... It is more granular (i hope it is the right word) and make for more in depth stuff... But i also understand that a dice pool system make the RPG easier to learn for TT players, which i think is the target for W&G

green cave
#

And the ammo system, the ammo system is weird...

hasty sorrel
#

So

#

with regards to W&G it has some pros and cons

hasty sorrel
hasty sorrel
#

The way the dice work (with 4 up being a success, 6 being 2) is fine and i like the fact you can shift 6s if yoy have enough successes to gain extra potency on things you are doing.

I do agree the wraith die sucks, I'm going to try it rules as writen initially but if i hate it i'll switch to shadowrun crits. Wrath die is the first die in any roll, on a 1 it is a complication (a crit fail if you don't succeed the roll, or if you do succeed its a "you succeed but...."

#

on a 6 on your wraith die its a crit

green cave
#

Well... That wasn't that long... Or as much detailed as i was expecting

hasty sorrel
#

still writing stuff just got a response from a player haha

green cave
#

Ah

hasty sorrel
#

Over all the system is super flexible and has an absurd amount of choice now Forsaken Systems has come out. We are running a T2 campaign that contains

a kroot merc
a scout marine
a pyromancer psyker
a priest
a skitarri vanguard

#

Immediatly i did see some of the power issues people are worried about (There was an option for someone to have a group of 10 followers, or to have an artillery strike you can do once per session) But a lot of it is up to GM descretion.

green cave
#

Scout marine, psyker and priest i know... Although priest is originally a tier 1 archetype

#

Kroot and skitarri vanguard are new

hasty sorrel
#

You can ascend tiers

green cave
#

I know, that is something that i find nice

hasty sorrel
#

so the kroot took an ascension that was he was rescued by an imperial and given a bunch of cyber to fix his wounds

#

not unheard of seeing as they are working for an ordos xenos inquis

green cave
green cave
hasty sorrel
#

The limit per session is because its like 10-20m blast radius bomb

#

Kroot are forsaken systems

green cave
#

No, i mean, i don't get why it is per session instead per in game time

hasty sorrel
#

the new expansion added kroot, ogryns and ratlings as well as a bunch of admech, sob and sm classes

green cave
#

Ah, i just found out, i didn't found information about it before

hasty sorrel
#

Thats fine its relativley new

green cave
#

Although the scout marine is present in the core rulebook too... As with a generic skitarii

hasty sorrel
#

Players come out of char gen strong but with weaknesses

as an example the kroot has 11 health and 11 resolve, you roll resolve to try and mitigate damage.

He only has 3 shock tho so any fear or psycological affects will doom him

#

I do like the fact as kroot you can take mutations as well. Wings or quills ir even bonuses for eating certain races

green cave
#

I don't like that system too, but i guess it is similar to inv dice from TT, so it make sense

hasty sorrel
#

resolve is like uhh AP in only war

#

you reduce damage by how many successes you get instead of a flat number tho

green cave
#

But there is still AR iirc

#

Like, skitarii armour has 4

#

The same as the storm trooper armour and carapace armour too

hasty sorrel
#

armour adds to your resolve pool

green cave
#

Ah

#

Boooo

hasty sorrel
#

You also have defence, which is just the target people need to hit to hit you

green cave
#

Less RNG!!

hasty sorrel
#

tbf a success is a 50/50 chance per dice so his average on 11 resolve is like 6 succ

#

The gun abilities seem pretty fun, and so do a bunch of the talents. I think my only complaints atm are the wraith die, enemies use the same stats players do so if i decide i don't like how they are and the game isn't a challenge i can just custom make enemies like with OW

Hot take

#

The people who say "age of shitmar" are two things

#

1

#

Know literally nothing about the lore and heard about its bad launch

#

And 2

#

Have never played a game of warhammer fantasy battles in their fucking life

I used to be one of those people

rose sluice

but it's only really the stormacst hqs that are wacky

#

to me anyway

vivid rune
#

But then i actually sat down with the lore and the model releases and realize this was good shit

#

I now plan on collecting slaanesh as well as literally every death army

rose sluice
#

there just cool factions and characters in fantasy that i like alot more

vivid rune
#

FEC are really up there with my favorites

I loved the lore in the old world... if someone were to get into age of sigmar books what's a good jumping point?

Think I've seen @elfin yew comment on some books so they might have some suggestions, I know there's new gotrek if you enjoyed those stories

I've also been wanting to jump into some books but also not sure where a good start would be

vivid rune
#

5+ to hit and wound

#

But wound rolls of 6 explode into automatic mortal wounds

rose sluice
#

god

vivid rune
#

They also make 18 attacks in a block of 5

rose sluice
#

i don't really know what that means

#

but big number

vivid rune
#

It means i need to roll 5 or higher on two dice rolls for an attack to wound a model

summer pawn
vivid rune
#

But if i roll a 6 i immediately do a wound that cant be negated

rose sluice
#

ah shit

vivid rune
#

So its super swingy preformance wise

#

You can wreck shit

#

Or hit fucking nothing

rose sluice

#

Contrast paints are good for glows and lights but not much else in my opinion, picked some blue contrast up for my blackstone fortress minis, its aight but I only used it for glows/lights

vivid rune
#

You are using contrasts wrong them lmao

#

These zombies are a good 80 percent contrast paints

#

@cosmic egret contrast paints 100 percent rely on what you underpaint and can greatly speed up the process of painting

median pumice
#

That zombie skin looks great!

vivid rune
#

Its morghast bone with plaguebearer contrast

#

Thats it

#

Want it to look even nicer add a glaze of earthshade or nuln oil for extra dirty and put volpus pink in the exposed wounds

#

Volpus pink is AMAZING for making exposed fleshy wounds

cosmic egret
#

The contrast paint you see is Talassar blue

What were you trying to do with it?

Question, what colors should I paint my crusader? I'm planning on making him into an Inquisitor of some kind, possibly from Ordo Malleus

#

The red is just the plastic

dusk hill
#

i'd probs do like, idk maybe red fabric with golden trimmings and then mostly bronze-ish metal

#

def bronze or golden metal if it's meant to be a fancy inquisitor boi

vivid rune

@median pumice oh! I actually use the same contrast paint for my ghost scheme as the blue zombie dreaa

Ill tell you in a bit currently have a baby on my lap

cosmic egret
cosmic egret
#

I have a total of 10 paints and 2 washes

hasty sorrel
#

For the former i'd recommend steel legion as the base for metals with a nuln wash (or nighthaunt if you want a blueish finish)

Cloth do as a coded colour usualy (something that will match other models uniforms or some noble house) but im also partial to dark blue/purple for the drapes

cosmic egret
#

Purple has a history of being for royalty, so since inquisitors are usually pretty high ranking, purple will fit them well.

vivid rune
#

@cosmic egret ah....see thats where i seem to forget about others

#

I have ALOT of paint

#

@cosmic egret in future i reccomend looking into a painting tutorial for a secific effect youre looking for or researching what certain paints are good for so when you do buy paint to do somthing youre not quite guessing if itll work or not

cosmic egret
#

For base coat specifically

vivid rune
#

Youll be suprised what you can find on youtube

I want to do the xenithar highlight but I dont have an air brush and I also use brush on primer

vivid rune
#

Blue jeans

#

Wait

#

You use brush on primer?

#

Why?

cosmic egret
#

Climate where I live is awful for spray primer

vivid rune
#

Aaah

cosmic egret
#

I've tried several kinds of spray primers they all don't function properly where I live

vivid rune
#

Have you tried doing it indoors with a spray booth?

cosmic egret
#

Small apartment won't allow that

vivid rune
#

I also live in small apartment

#

I just dont tell my neigbors lmao

#

If you have access to a window i can walk you through building a cheap spaybooth

The brush on works fine, just takes a bit more time to paint a mini though

I start wondering whether GW intentionally encourages scalping at this point

#

like

#

when was there last a popular release that didn't go out of stock in minutes or hours

elfin yew
#

I dont think they have to. Its a growing problem in like, everything with even some scarcity

dusk hill
#

if they're not expecting it now then they're morons

#

yeah but why does this shit have scarcity??

crisp forge
#

Its just their Suits not understanding some business methods imo

dusk hill
#

maybe, idk

#

it's weird

crisp forge
#

to quote Bricky "GW is like the scorpion from the Frog and the Scorpion, they'll do dumb shit for no reason."

elfin yew
#

Lmao said the scorpion

#

GW's lack of care for the stores which help form their community will hurt them eventually

crisp forge
#

Yeee, GW doesnt do shit unless their stocks/profit is actively threatened

elfin yew
#

Either that or we need to start mugging scalpers more actively

#

Or both

dusk hill
#

hm

#

lets start inspecting strangely large deliveries at ppls doors

elfin yew
#

Remember that one guy who tried scalping like 50 PS5s and got robbed of them? Then just vanished off the internet?

dusk hill
#

if it turns out to be all GW kits then we bash the door own, interrogate them for about 10 seconds about what it's for, if they haven't got a convincing answer on hand immediately that isn't scalping we steal the kits and ransack the pantry

elfin yew
#

Makes me thinj maybe karma does exist

dusk hill
#

lmao

#

godspeed to the thief

in this case he really would've been robbing others, if ya think about it

Look

#

The most frustrating part is

#

GW hasnt even said anything

#

They havent admitted scalping is a problem, theyve never mentioned it

trim hemlock
#

In an ideal world, people would boycott scalpers so they can sit and think with their 50+ boxes of Blood Knights but some folk got less patience than they do money

A fucking public acknowledgement would be a great first start

As we’re sure you noticed, the Indomitus launch set for the new edition of Warhammer 40,000 sold out incredibly fast online this weekend.

On the one hand, that’s really exciting news for Warhammer 40,000 fans everywhere! It’s amazing to be part of such a passionate and engaged worldwide community. As Warhammer goes from strength to strength, it means there are more games to be played, new friends to be made and more memories to be created.

Hate to burst your bubble

but they also could just make more, it's actually way easier to make models as they do now than when they were pewter

#

GW is only getting more efficient

One of the reason why cursed city went bust is high tarriffs on the raw plastic material

Because it was made in china

Honestly though this makes me want to get back into Infinity. That company at least acknowledges shortages and works to get things set right... =/

#

I like the concept of Marines having a Scout equivalent that actually wears power armor. Always felt weird to me that important things like reconnaissance, stealth, and sniper support were the sole domain of the new guys and all those skills get left behind once you got power armor.

lapis tundra
#

Although i kinda wonder what they use scouts for then

rose sluice
#

scouting i'd assume

lapis tundra
#

If you got units who do the same job as scouts do but better i dont see where you would use scouts anymore. Like "oh this is only semi important, if you fuck it up thats not a huge loss for us"?

edgy cipher
#

Scouts still do scout stuff I assume, sadly you may never see them on the tabletop ever again

#

That's too bad

#

I really liked the scout's bits

lapis tundra
#

I did too

edgy cipher
#

They fit well on IG and gives veterans the shotguns they don't have

lapis tundra

Maybe they now deploy them in mixed squads, containing both primaris but also scouts?

#

That would make sense at least

vivid rune
edgy cipher
#

It would make sense lore wise

vivid rune
#

I also plan on going vampire and monster heavy so it isnt my jam

edgy cipher
#

Then again, scouts aren't primaris, eliminators are

lapis tundra
#

But like primaris marines gotta have scouts too right?

edgy cipher
#

Well its chapter dependant

#

Plus I don't know all the chapters

#

With Primaris lore being missing and what we have a bit vague, that's hard to say

lapis tundra
#

Damn

#

But yeah kinda sad how they replace the regular marines completely :(

edgy cipher
#

Even in the lore, its mentionend that as time goes on, the procedure to turn a sm into a primaris gets safer and more marines do it/ are encouraged to

#

They really do'nt hide the fact that normal sm will be a thing of the past in a few years

lapis tundra
#

Honestly id be happy id they maybe release chaos primaris as some kind of elite unit because they can turn to chaos too ofc

Take Cover stratagem only applies to armor saves.

I saw an faq that invul counts as SV

A model with an invulnerable save can use it instead of its normal Sv.

The core rules do differentiate invulnerable save and Sv

So it wouldn't work techncially

yup, got some glow in the dark filliment
