40k-minis-and-armies

[hasty sorrel]

preatorians, valhallans, tallarn, mordians and vostroyans all had models and id love to see them return

[twilit cliff]

out of those i'd like to see either tallarn or vostryoan

the others seem like you can easily kitbash them out of bits we already have

[hasty sorrel]

valhallans would be a pain to kitbash

all the greatcoats

oh also

steel legion would be neat

[twilit cliff]

idk i just watched pete the wargamers vid

[hasty sorrel]

but maybe a bit too close to krieg in aesthetic

[twilit cliff]

yeah, i do really like steel legion

but yeah

they also dont look super different

[hasty sorrel]

if they do the full list eventually? gucci

[twilit cliff]

im still sorry i didnt pick up a box of them when we last had the option

one of the things i'd really like to see

but not very likely

[hasty sorrel]

i got the uh

metal valhallans

[twilit cliff]

considering creed and kell are likely dead, i'd like to see some new models that have the same function

nice, i dont think i ever got a good look at those

[hasty sorrel]

creed isn't dead unfortunatley

[twilit cliff]

unfortunately

[hasty sorrel]

they mcguffin necron pokeballed him

[twilit cliff]

or that yeah

[hasty sorrel]

i like creed, but it would have been so much better if he had just died

[twilit cliff]

god i hope they dont have him escape

just let him be dead

[hasty sorrel]

would have added weight to the loss of cadia, instead of it just sorta being nothing

[twilit cliff]

plus what's creed without kell

[hasty sorrel]

na they won't kill him since they can still make money on the name

[twilit cliff]

sad, that's what he is

i also heard rumour of a new IG tank, an inbetween model

bigger than a leman russ, smaller than a baneblade

my favourite guard vehicle is still the chimera, i'd really like a redo of that

[hasty sorrel]

ib4 plastic macharius

[twilit cliff]

perhaps, i'd be fine with that

the macharius even looks like an updated version of the leman russ to me

dont get me wrong i like the leman russ but if gw really wants to upscale 40k and be more detailed

[hasty sorrel]

macharius is a little different, its very much a ww1 tank

where the russ is a blend of ww1 and ww2

[twilit cliff]

it's a way more handsome tank

[hasty sorrel]

love all the IG vehicles

[twilit cliff]

i want something like the m3 lee

[hasty sorrel]

thats just the chimera

[twilit cliff]

i know we have sponsons and shit and the baneblade has the second gun

but i really dig that sneaky side turret

[hasty sorrel]

fair

[twilit cliff]

really beefs the tank out

[hasty sorrel]

maybe we'll see that

honestly no idea what the plan is

[twilit cliff]

ofc

[hasty sorrel]

would be cool for it to have like, some fluff reason kinda like the tau response to titans

[twilit cliff]

i'm just really hype to finally see something that's (probably) guard related

and not dkok

i probably would have liked dkok more if everyone wasnt either hyping them up or shitting their pants over them

[hasty sorrel]

i like the models

fanbase is just garbo

[twilit cliff]

yeah theyre good

but if people could just shut up about the

i like that theyre new models are more expressive than other guard models we have

[hasty sorrel]

yeah

[twilit cliff]

but i hope the new stuff doesnt make the old stuff look out of place

[hasty sorrel]

Actually going back to vehicles a second

would be cool to get like

a cluster of vehicles on a new chassis

like the crassus, which i think is on the macharius hull?

https://wh40k.lexicanum.com/mediawiki/images/6/65/Crassus6.jpg

its a transport

[twilit cliff]

you might be right

[hasty sorrel]

and there is also an artillery version

https://www.belloflostsouls.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/praetor-01.jpg

[twilit cliff]

that looks sick indeed

[twilit cliff]

but yeah if we got something like this that's not resin but a new kinda chimera

i'd be happy

or maybe just not fw expensive

[hasty sorrel]

ye

like

either a new full on tank with a bunch of weapon choices

[twilit cliff]

i dont know how feasible that is though

[hasty sorrel]

or a new vehicle that has different hull uses, like a transport, an artillery and a tank destroyer gun setup

[twilit cliff]

a modular hull

[hasty sorrel]

the baneblade is a modular hull

[twilit cliff]

also i fear that's going to make a lot of vehicles look samey

yeah that's true

but not to the drgree that you could turn the baneblade into a designated troop transport

... or can you?

[hasty sorrel]

you can

StormLord

[twilit cliff]

what

[hasty sorrel]

https://images.dakkadakka.com/s/i/gallery/img/2016/6/15/807282.JPG

https://images.dakkadakka.com/s/i/gallery/img/2016/6/15/807281.JPG

[twilit cliff]

hoo shit yeah

[rocky badge]

oooh daddy those tanks

[twilit cliff]

i completely forgot about that

mostly bc i told myself i'd probably never buy a baneblade

pricy

[hasty sorrel]

honestly? if you can get one its worth it

[twilit cliff]

one day maybe

but i'd want to have a solid idea what to do with it first

[hasty sorrel]

they are actually massive, and if you can do the right magnet setup you can swap between the different central bits

[twilit cliff]

in terms of kitbashing etc.

and yeah i'd need a solid plan for the magnets

and more experience with magnets

which ive been putting off for months

[hasty sorrel]

haha

personally ive just done the shadowsword

and i plan to buy a 2nd baneblade to do magnet magic with

[twilit cliff]

is this the plastic shadowsword?

[hasty sorrel]

yes

its my fav varient, designed to kill titans

[twilit cliff]

that's beautiful isnt it

the ones that really catch my eye are either that stormlord bc ive got a soft spot for troop transports

or the one with the uhhh

[hasty sorrel]

my wip tonks

[twilit cliff]

for a second i thought you had a diorama

[hasty sorrel]

haha i wish

[twilit cliff]

but that' sjust your floor and background

nice paintjob

[hasty sorrel]

thanks

[twilit cliff]

the tankthreads especially

[hasty sorrel]

wanted to do something a little different

[twilit cliff]

what planetary governor/madman paid for those

[hasty sorrel]

haha

[twilit cliff]

i experimented with a similar colourscheme

dark blue, black and red accents

but i couldnt get the red right

[hasty sorrel]

my scheme is kinda cheating because i'm using warplock bronze

which is just, the best fucking paint GW do

[twilit cliff]

on the uhh

on what parts?

[edgy cipher]

I just noticed

The tankthreads on a baneblade look like the aquilla

[hasty sorrel]

ye its great lmao

[twilit cliff]

yeah theyre sick

i bet most people would just paint over them

[urban harbor]

you madlad. how long did this take?

[hasty sorrel]

all of the dark brown metals (the tracks, the barrel, the flak armour on my guard)

The tracks are Warplock, with runelord brass or sycorax bronze for the highlighted gold looking sections

[twilit cliff]

oh yeah i see now

looks like it's got good coverage

[hasty sorrel]

its still WiP because i hate myself, taken a lengthy break from working on it but the above was about 6 months of actual work?

[twilit cliff]

fuck

[hasty sorrel]

it doesn't take that long to paint honestly

its mostly me making decisions for what details should be painted what

[twilit cliff]

yeah

[urban harbor]

these things are studio quality

[twilit cliff]

i just put the model on my desk and look at it occassionally until i make decisions

[twilit cliff]

then look at it for a few more weeks

usually the ideal choice will stick out

it's so good

[hasty sorrel]

thanks guys means a lot

been putting off working on it cause i got stressed with my paitning

[twilit cliff]

yup

[hasty sorrel]

last bit i was working on was wearhering effects

[edgy cipher]

How's the rivet painting going Skelly

[hasty sorrel]

i haven't touched it in uuuuh

a year

[edgy cipher]

I know, that's why I asked

[hasty sorrel]

ye.....

i need to

but big depresso

[twilit cliff]

i told myself i wasnt going to bother with weathering

but this looks tight

[hasty sorrel]

i wouldn't usually

but this baneblade is like, my centerpiece

[urban harbor]

my hand cramped just reading that lol

[hasty sorrel]

it deserves everything i can possibly do for it so it can look as good as i can manage

[edgy cipher]

My weathering is terrible, I don't see the point of ruining an ok mini, when I do it

[hasty sorrel]

my weathering isn't even that great, its just nuln oil lmao

[edgy cipher]

Unsurprising, Skelly refuses to drybrush em

[hasty sorrel]

i already did, i'm just going back over and adding like

water effects?

oh it also gets worse

someone just bought me a wraithknight

[twilit cliff]

ofc it does

[hasty sorrel]

my work is never done

[edgy cipher]

I mean I still need to mail you that baneblade

[hasty sorrel]

....mostly because i don't do it

zherlum i swear to god

[edgy cipher]

Funny how mailing something to the UK is literally more expensive than the baneblade itself

[twilit cliff]

ah yes

the united lingdom

[hasty sorrel]

i will ban you from my next 40k campaign

don't you dare

[edgy cipher]

It's a baneblade campaign

You really didn't expect me to NOT buy you one ?

[hasty sorrel]

aight fuck it

imma get back to painting

right now

[twilit cliff]

have fun

[hasty sorrel]

i'll try

gotta finish painting the remainder of my default guard

and finalize my scheme for the kriegers

my kriegers look like they are wearing denim 😩

[brisk vapor]

farmer krieg

yeehaw

[serene blade]

Any terrain enjoyers?

[hoary ermine]

Delectable scrap me boi

[serene blade]

🙏

[edgy cipher]

Ah, the KT terrain I pressume ?

[serene blade]

Agrax/Nuln feels like cheating sometimes

[serene blade]

Yis

Finally getting around to painting these bad boys

[compact umbra]

How do harlequins play like anyway?

I never see anyone play them

[feral ingot]

small and random?

all the good things of dark eldar with all the psyker dakka you could need

yes dark eldar I know what I said

literally zipline through the table and just dakka with your noggin

and then run out because lul HUEHUE

and then watch the guy seethe his neckbeard out because he either has to use his measly s2 to shoot or chase after you

[compact umbra]

Lmao

[storm lark]

My first figure

[elfin yew]

Small friend with da bonding knife

[storm lark]

lots of detail, nery nice

[civic mica]

Going to add more as they are night lords so I intend to put some lightning on the armor plating as well

[storm lark]

never painted before so i need to know what paints are good to use and how to use them

[civic mica]

I use citadel paints personally though valejo is also a good option if not better

I would avoid using army painter stuff though as I have had nothing but bad experiences with it

[storm lark]

well i hear alot of contrast/shade/base paints i dont know what those are

[civic mica]

They are labeled and color coded

Blue is layer paint

Red is base paint

Shades are green and contrast is labeled contrast above the color

[storm lark]

maybe once I figure it out ill make a chart for other new people who don't know

[feral ingot]

Lots of helpful tutorials on youtube 😄

It'll make it all clear

[feral ingot]

^

Shade, Dry, base, layer, etc

[storm lark]

dry whats that a texture paint?

[civic mica]

Think of it like blush makeup

You get some and work it into the bristles and gently brush it over the model to bring out details

That paint is made specially for drybrushing but make no mistake you can drybrush with about any paint just do it with a brush that's already seen a lot as it will destroy the brush pretty quickly

[storm lark]

😳

I didn’t know that since I only own 1 brush

[civic mica]

The have like 4 dollar brush kits at most stores like Wal Mart

They work great so don't be tricked into buying GWs overpriced brushes

[storm lark]

Yeah I think it’ll be like two weeks once I start painting

There’s a few paints I need that I don’t have

[civic mica]

what sort of models are you painting?

[vivid rune]

Fuck i almost own every GW paint at this point

[storm lark]

That’s a lot of paint 🎨

[civic mica]

Tau are pretty sick good luck on your painting endeavors

[storm lark]

“For the greater good”

[tight hatch]

ordered a red grass games wet palette xl back in December 17 its already march and still havent gotten it. I am convinced the mail service here is run by trolls or something. At this point its a race between darktide and my palette coming 😆

Chapter Master Valrak (@CMValrak)

I am trying to raise money to help aid the Citizens of Ukraine. I don't really have a lot to offer the people of Ukraine but I am trying to help in the only way I can, one of those ways is to raise money by raffling off a part of my Warhammer 40,000 Army.

https://t.co/xXQY8v9Qu0 https://t.co/npLMfe2wSe

Twitter · Mar 2, 2022, 11:43 AM

[vivid rune]

Hes raffling his custom chapter?

[placid kernel]

at least part of it yeah

[vivid rune]

Why do people who go all in and serious with custom chapters always pick the worst fucking color schemes lol

[placid kernel]

I dig the bronze, all the silver is way too monotonous for my liking

[vivid rune]

Yea

It doesnt look great together imo

[placid kernel]

that youtube guys uhhh space bears seemed unique but thats because of all the additional stuff, not really the paint scheme

[vivid rune]

In more of the problem that like...wargamers arent actual artists

In the sense that they never went to art classes

So they dont know things like color theory very well

[placid kernel]

I love seeing people throw colour theory straight out the window

ah beat me to it

[vivid rune]

LMAO

[placid kernel]

just picking colours that completely go against each other

always a treat

[twilit cliff]

this is far from the worst isnt it

[vivid rune]

Yea

Its just weird how the color schemes ive seen always tend to be bad from the people who go hard in the custom chapter stuff

[twilit cliff]

ah

ehh people do what they like, they bought it

[vivid rune]

Yea

The astartes short film chapter colors are nice

Theyre crisp and simple

And that dude i assume takes his custom chapter very seriously since he made a fuckign short film about them lol

[twilit cliff]

yeah he did a bunch of art too iirc

tbf it wasnt my favourite, i do have a soft spot for those old timey wild colour schemes

one thing i'll never get over is how much the white scars logo makes them look like 90's power rangers

i love it

[vivid rune]

Lmao

[twilit cliff]

https://tenor.com/view/power-rangers-mighty-morphin-power-rangers-gif-18003519

[dusk hill]

colour theory is fake paint ur armies how u want them

[twilit cliff]

its not called colour practice

stupid joke

[vivid rune]

Okay but some people have ugly fucking looking armies lol

Most of the time its because they try to do too much with it

To make it more unique

[dusk hill]

I've still got some old tau models from two years ago painted almost entirely in shades of grey, i don't regret a second of it

[vivid rune]

Ooo

[twilit cliff]

did you prime them and forgot to paint them after?

[vivid rune]

That sounds nice

[dusk hill]

I think if I revamp that scheme eventually I might incorporate red or something?

Like half red half darkish grey

[vivid rune]

Red highlights would be nice

Its simple and striking

[dusk hill]

i'm unsure, ima think it over a lot more thoroughly beforehand than i did initially painting them ftser

[dusk hill]

Nah, it was just as I was learning to paint & grey vallejo stuff was the first paint I could get looking decent

i initially tried to paint them white which went as expected for a new painter who didn't understand how to build up shades

[vivid rune]

Note to self: read how to make fried rice before teying to make it

[dusk hill]

yeah! I've got a railgun sniper somewhere with one half of their helmet painted red

it works quite well as a scheme i think. Light grey for armour, dark grey for fabric, red in highlights

ima think it over, i lowkey kinda like the continuity with my older painted stuff

[dusk hill]

!!

[vivid rune]

Im using overnight cold rice

[dusk hill]

Fried rice is one of my fav foods, are u struggling with making it?

[vivid rune]

I got hot veggie oil

Its not "frying" it seems

[dusk hill]

are you- just trying to actually fry the rice?

[vivid rune]

I got egg set aside

[vivid rune]

I think so?

[twilit cliff]

i dont think uhh

[dusk hill]

Yeah so, the rice goes in last. It's not gonna fry, it'll just soak up oil & heat up basically

[vivid rune]

FUCCCCK

[twilit cliff]

do people really fry rice?

[dusk hill]

You fry stuff like the egg & vegetables first, & then you put in the rice last, mix it together, & heat it until it's piping

[vivid rune]

eggs in

[dusk hill]

nods there's only so wrong you can go with it

[rocky badge]

people are confused that fried rice exists?

lol what

[twilit cliff]

call me a no good peasant whose tastebuds have burned off long ago but

[rocky badge]

isnt it one of the most common dishes in the world

[twilit cliff]

if i want my food to smell like a chinese restaurant i just add a bunch of terayaki sauce

[vivid rune]

Bruh lol

[twilit cliff]

sorry when people say fry i think of deep freying

[rocky badge]

its normally in a wok or large pan

[twilit cliff]

yeah language barrier

[vivid rune]

Yay!!!

[dusk hill]

My general way of doing it is just

1. Seasoned oil in pan, medium heat
2. Fry vegetables until cooked in order, so stuff like peas cook v quickly, onion will take a while
3. Make a hole in the cooked vegetables & yeet in some eggs, beat them into the vegetable mixture until solidly fried
4. Put in old rice & soy sauce, mix all together, taste regularly while adding more soy/other seasonings (ik asian friends mock me for this but soy sauce can get really overwhelming if there's too much)
5. Once it's seasoned & mixed properly, just keep it on the stove until it's steaming hot

You can also add in fancier sauces and stuff, they all add to it immensely, but imo soy is the only essential one & finding fancier stuff can be difficult if ur in white hellscape

Also one other thing, i can't do it on electric stoves for some reason. I don't know why, it just comes out pallid and weird

[vivid rune]

Added some soy and hoisen

[dusk hill]

deep fried battered ricecakes when

[rocky badge]

i think hoisin sauce is made from soy sauce

[dusk hill]

I also like to add a lil butter if i have any, can help make it a lil richer & goes well with the egg

[dusk hill]

yee i think so

[twilit cliff]

i regret having ditched most of my food pics

cute lil chili

[rocky badge]

oo im not a fan of quinoa

[twilit cliff]

yeah me neither, but it's what i had at the time

i dont like the texture much

[rocky badge]

thats basically it

the hard casings and the overly soft grains

cous cous and rice are better

[twilit cliff]

cajun salmon with mango avocado salsa

[vivid rune]

Quinoa is really good, its just alot harder to cook properly

[vivid rune]

Oooooo

[twilit cliff]

yeah that one's my favourite recipe

whenever i want to surprise somebody i make that salmon

[rocky badge]

flavoured salmon is super underrated

so many people eat salmon boring

[twilit cliff]

i like the taste of salmon either way

but the spices can really make it taste special

if i accidentally find more pics of food ill post but i doubt it

[dusk hill]

Fight me, salmon is one of relatively few fish that doesn't need that much

Just gotta make sure you're seasoning it enough & ur crisping it up nicely

[rocky badge]

it doesnt need that much but it becomes amazing if you add shit

[dusk hill]

what do you use?

It's so expensive i fear experimenting with it

[vivid rune]

I love pickling, smoking, or curing salmon

It just brings out its flavor even more

Holy shit its so good

[twilit cliff]

salt, pepper, paprika, ceyenne, brown sugar, thyme

[twilit cliff]

ive been wanting to pickle food but the housemate is disgusted by the idea

[dusk hill]

hot smoked salmon is delicious

[twilit cliff]

my second favourite fish is cod

but i eat that as is prepared with salt and pepper

bc i dont know how to do anything spicy with cod

[dusk hill]

I remember cod being really bland

[twilit cliff]

i wouldnt say bland

less pronounced

[hoary ermine]

Cod is... base staple gun game

[dusk hill]

yee, i suck with white fish in general

one day i'll learn how to cook it in a way in which it doesn't taste like oxygen

[hoary ermine]

: )

Fish is hard

[twilit cliff]

tbf just like

cod, mash potato with nutmeg

[hasty sorrel]

Cod is alright if prepped well, but theres a running thing in the UK of fish shops selling "cod" when its actually something else like plaice

its only popular because it used to be common and cheap and is a mild seafood

its like the mild cheddar of fish

[twilit cliff]

that sounds correct

[dusk hill]

I've yet to get good with any none oily fish

trout, herring, salmon, all of that I can do very well

just highkey not anything lean

[hasty sorrel]

smocked haddok where its at

[twilit cliff]

smocked you say

[hasty sorrel]

mmm

smoked fish is gucci

[twilit cliff]

cheap joke for those in the know

[little whale]

Mille milliards de mille sabords

[storm lark]

Just finished assembly now I can paint them tomorrow

[vivid rune]

So

Morvenn Vahl is a really long project

Im like 30 percent done lol

[storm lark]

battle sister

pls show i wanna see

[tiny thistle]

I smell… a simp

[storm lark]

is magnetizing even worth/ important?

[vivid rune]

Completely depends

Foe the most part not really

[storm lark]

ight ill just put all the cool stuff on the unit

[storm lark]

what head are you going to put on?

[vivid rune]

Mostly do it for vehicles

Everything else it aint worth

Angy face

Im not a fucking helmet'd coward 😎

[storm lark]

hott

[tiny thistle]

Sister of battle combat suit… [checking cogitators] out of date old technology… [making notes] test new designs on experimental dreadnought suit pattern #007

[vivid rune]

Real shit

People need to stop using retributor armor gold

Especially with brown washes

Looks fucking dull and muted in ugly brown

Liberator gold is where its at

Also i want to get a fluer tattooed on my cheek like the sisters but im afraid itll be confused for a gang marking and ill be killed lol

[tiny thistle]

New designs complete… [mechanical clicking]
pattern: contemptor class
Weapons: power axe: powered by necron fuel rod, retractable plasma cannon: powered with Eldar mini fusion reactor, including interchangeable shoulder mounted weapons
Armor: adamanteum infused alloy with necron metals
Shield: void shield powered by two mini fusion reactors with Eldar focusing crystals

[vivid rune]

@tiny thistle

You can prob do it with this kit for a deathwatch dread

Since she has a inquisitorial pauldron on the suit

[tiny thistle]

To expensive I have… a 3D printer I’ll… [mechanical clicking] use besides what I plain to make will… need to be completely custom built… from the ground up

Mostly for… the look of it

[lavish perch]

Sounds like tech-heresy to me

[crisp forge]

Lmao god no

the fleur is like the least fascist symbol from 40k/IRL, the only weird reactions you'd get are if you were probably in france. Otherwise the fleur is everywhere as a sigil/symbol.

A house I just walked by has it at the tip of their fence posts

[rain void]

I vaguely remember that exact argument brought up on this server

[crisp forge]

Yeah im getting a deja vu too

[rain void]

ie: someone arguing that the fleur is just as or more fascist than the usual fash iconography

[crisp forge]

Oh god that one

I mean it isn't though is it? Its just a sign of royalty from what I remember.

[rain void]

not in any strict sense

[crisp forge]

I forgot its religious meanings ngl

[rocky badge]

It's mostly related to french monarchy, but not exclusively

[crisp forge]

Yeee that

[rain void]

unless you just mean fash as anything all authoritarian

[rocky badge]

And also used to represent french catholic saints

[crisp forge]

Yeee its probably why 40k used it

[rocky badge]

Normally virgin mary and saint joseph apparently

[rain void]

vaguely secular symbol that can get repurposed as a religious icon

[crisp forge]

Yeee

[rocky badge]

"Some modern usage of the fleur-de-lis reflects "the continuing presence of heraldry in everyday life", often intentionally, but also when users are not aware that they are "prolonging the life of centuries-old insignia and emblems"

[crisp forge]

Lmao

[rocky badge]

lol

[crisp forge]

yeah that last part

[rocky badge]

Thanks wikipedia

For that amazing commentary

[crisp forge]

most people just see the fleur as a "oh hey, neat symbol"

[rocky badge]

Nooo not the centuries old emblems nooo

It's also used as the symbol for loads of sports teams

[rain void]

dont mind me Im just using a double headed eagle without being aware of any centuries old european history

[crisp forge]

LOL

Yeah the aquila is incredibly fascist

its why its the dumbest tattoo you'd have to get

[green cave]

I like the roman aquila

[rocky badge]

Fleur de lis is also the main symbol of the Scouts

[crisp forge]

roman one is better yeah

since its more natural

[green cave]

But i love a lot of roman stuff lol

[crisp forge]

the Imperium's one is made to evoke fascist imagery more

[hasty sorrel]

fleur is a very french symbol, and is used for a lot of fine stuff

i think here in the UK its used by the scouts?

[rocky badge]

I said that

Just a sec ago

[crisp forge]

Death.

[rain void]

if US youd just as likely get picked out as a big saints fan

[brisk vapor]

I think I've seen toilet paper with the fleur icons printed on it

[crisp forge]

Lmao yeah see what I mean

its literally everywhere

most people dont even care about what it means usually either

[green cave]

It was also used by some italian small nation during renaissance iirc

[rocky badge]

It's just a flower lol

[crisp forge]

Based.

[hasty sorrel]

also if its that big a worry just

don't get it somwhere people can see it

unless you are planning to get it on the face like SoB, its prob not an issue

[crisp forge]

Yeah it would just get the usual "Huh what is that? Oh looks neat." before they look away.

[edgy cipher]

I managed to avoid the only conv where I could have had a positive input, oh well

[crisp forge]

😔

[edgy cipher]

But to counter the comment someone made, people in France would moreso judge from having your cheek tatooted than having a tatoo of the Fleur-de-lys

It's has pretty much been reclaimed from its monarchy heraldry ancestry to become just a french emblem

[vivid rune]

i think ill get some temp tat transfers of them

[edgy cipher]

Or get full on tats you coward

Show em how much ya care

But yeah temp are a good way to see if you like a tat

[quaint halo]

So ran the Alien RPG last night for our game group and it was hilarious

We're running the Chariot of the Gods Module as a primer to get used to the system

We got to the end of act 1 where a bloodburster pops out of one of the crew they are rescuing and we drew initiative (card based in this system)

Player running the captain goes first sees the Bloodburster hissing on the ground. Draws pistol and hits it with two additional successes for more damage

We role-playing it out as
capitan sees this
draws pistol
"Fuck this"
blows baby neomorph away

[hasty sorrel]

its a pretty neat system

[quaint halo]

Yeah

I can't wait to have everyone with the stuff in act 2

I'm playing the pilot because it was the last avaliable PC left and I keep scoring stunts and flying the ship like the Millennium Falcon because I either get a plus 1 to a future pilot check or show off

[quaint halo]

Rock and stone

[tiny thistle]

Rock… and Stone!

[dark cave]

Yea!

Rock and stone!

[hoary ermine]

rock and stone brothers

[vale sleet]

Run is probably my favorite track

[storm lark]

what should i use to remove paint off the whole figure i put to much primer and now the figure has no detail

[vivid rune]

Simple green

Let it soak for a few hours and gently scrub it with a toothbrush

How much comes off should infer you how long it needs to additionally soak

You can get it at walmart in the cleaning isle for pretty cheap

[storm lark]

thank, was about to toss the figures and never paint again

[tight hatch]

Spirits aka 99% ipa only use it on plastic. Dont use it on resin.

[sage matrix]

Yeah just be careful in general, check it every few minutes to make sure the plastic isn’t melting

But you should be good

[storm lark]

oh I just bought 90% Isopropyl alcohol and put them in a cup to soak over night

[vivid rune]

I would not reccomend white or clear spirits

Their vapors are dangeous to inhale and need proper ventilation @storm lark

And THEY WILL MELT your mini just very slowly over time

[storm lark]

really?

[sage matrix]

Yeup

[vivid rune]

Simplegreen is best because with a week or a month of soaking theyll be clear but have no melting

[storm lark]

welp to late how long should i let them soak?

[vivid rune]

Minutes

[storm lark]

its only been 15 so itll be fine

[vivid rune]

Yea it should be good

Gently scrub it with a toothbrush

[storm lark]

eeep this suff hurts my nose

[vivid rune]

You used rubbing alchol right?

Like 90% atuff for wounds?

[storm lark]

it says first aid and cuts

[vivid rune]

Yeup okay

Yea its the vapours

Its why i dont reccomend spirits

[sage matrix]

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=L9n1esQJ9rw

[vivid rune]

Because that stuff is much worse

And will hurt your brain long term

[sage matrix]

But I would still be careful with simple green, can still be toxic as it is a cleaning product

[storm lark]

well its not like i do this every day so ill be fine i guess

[vivid rune]

Yea its just no where near as bad with vapours

[storm lark]

its only bad if you do it all the time

[vivid rune]

I legit have a bin of simplegrean with some stormcasts just havin a dip

[sage matrix]

What I do is I will dilute the product with water. It will weaken the strength of simple green, so you don’t have to worry about it damaging the plastic

[vivid rune]

I take em out once in awhile for a scrub, get some off, then put em back in for a soak and repeat

[sage matrix]

Ditto

[vivid rune]

Oh i dont even dilute

Simple green isnt strong enough to melt

As far as ive seen

And ive had them in for prob a 6 months at this point

[sage matrix]

Yeah I’ve weened off of it, I’m just paranoid sometimes 😂

[vivid rune]

Fair

[storm lark]

actually ill let them sit in the cup for 40 mins and ill let you know if they melted

[hoary ermine]

🤔

I think i know what to do with my next diorama

[tight hatch]

They wont i left mine in for 2 hours as long as its plastic it should be fine ive been doing this with my master grade kits and hg kits of gundam

Also pic is what i use

Just put it in a box with a lid and scrub with tooth brush you dont need fancy shmancy crap just 99% ipa or in your case 90 should be just fine.

[hoary ermine]

Ayo

Just use cleaning benzine

Itll be fine promise

dont actually do this your model will be fucking Thanos snapped

[tight hatch]

Just use your 90 ipa friend trust me you will be fine i literally do the same with it in a sonic cleaner to strip paint and the varnish off of my friends grampa shield also good luck 😉

[hoary ermine]

90 and 99 ipa is fine yeah

[vivid rune]

Do not. Use. Spirits. Please

Unless you got a window open or somthing

[hoary ermine]

Honestly puddles i dont know where youre getting fumes from, its fumeless here

Or im just too dutch to even notice them

[hasty sorrel]

all alcohol produces fumes

especially high concentration

[edgy cipher]

That would explain a lot of things

[hasty sorrel]

did people not know this

[twilit cliff]

https://thumbs.gfycat.com/DeadSecondhandAnglerfish-size_restricted.gif

[edgy cipher]

https://tenor.com/view/jetstream-sam-jetstream-metal-gear-rising-metal-gear-rubber-gif-24865376

[twilit cliff]

tbf i dont know this

[hasty sorrel]

i worry about all of you

[twilit cliff]

what i do know is if it smells strong i should stay away

[edgy cipher]

Thats a good reaction

[twilit cliff]

not huff it

[hasty sorrel]

yeah, cause if you breath in particularly strong alcohol it can get you drunk

like, no joke. people near me used to huff absinth

[twilit cliff]

you hang out with fun people i hear

[hasty sorrel]

na thats the kinda person i avoid

binge drinking is cringe

[twilit cliff]

if youre huffing absinth are you even drinking

[hoary ermine]

Yes

Why the fuck do you need toget drunk

[hasty sorrel]

yes

[hoary ermine]

So many people drinking to get drunk i dont fucking get it

[twilit cliff]

must be super bad on your nose and eyes though, probably your livers too

[hasty sorrel]

huffing the fumes cuts out the middle man and it basically just goes straight to the brain

its a quick way to get drunk

[hoary ermine]

Ah yes, snort the shot

[hasty sorrel]

yes

like, im not joking, people do this

[hoary ermine]

Yeah im not surprised

[hasty sorrel]

25% of people in my city are binge drinkers, they know every way under the sun to get drunk

[hoary ermine]

Egh

[hasty sorrel]

its not fun

[twilit cliff]

there's stats on that?

[hasty sorrel]

yes

[hoary ermine]

Ofcourse there is

[hasty sorrel]

binge drinking is a massive issue

[hoary ermine]

Theres stats on toilet use

[hasty sorrel]

people just don't like talking about it because they want to go and binge drink

[hoary ermine]

Drinking is way more important than that

Its been a problem in nearly every country

[twilit cliff]

oh yeah there are

23.3% of men and 15.4% of women here

yeah i didnt think they'd have stats on that per city

[hasty sorrel]

they track it per city because alcohol is a large economic factor

if it sells well, thats good money

if it sells too well it affects city productivity

[twilit cliff]

ahhh

[proud gorge]

I like drinking every now and then

[hasty sorrel]

drinking is fine, but we are discussing binge drinking

[proud gorge]

Had a shitload of schnapps at a smorgasbord

[hasty sorrel]

i don't know what any of that meant, but good for you

or i'm sorry to hear that

[twilit cliff]

isnt smorgasbord a danish sandwich

[proud gorge]

England

Well it’s the term for a banquet as well

[twilit cliff]

ahh

[proud gorge]

With tons of sandwiches

And booze

[twilit cliff]

sounds neat

[proud gorge]

Yeee it was good

[twilit cliff]

i especially likes that it includes sandwiches

too much boozing goes on without food

[proud gorge]

Yea I defo want food if I’m drinking

[twilit cliff]

i got fairly annihilated at my friends table tennis club in january, that was neat

but also rare

[dusk hill]

Watched a 45 year old looking dude, drunk beyond god & fallen with a bottle of wine down some stone steps, get arrested a few days ago

British values of stoicism & virtue

I concede I checked to make sure he was alive & then just retreated to a nearby bench with a book I was barely reading to watch the show

[vivid rune]

Apparently not

[hasty sorrel]

ye due to how alcohol is it tends to just turn into vapor, so huffing (strong) drinks can get you drunk faster than drinking

[hoary ermine]

Ye

Might be something in it that prevents scent or something idk

[dusk hill]

alcohol is very weird

[haughty pine]

Very wack

[compact umbra]

Very odd

[hasty sorrel]

alcohol is a poison

[compact umbra]

Yes

[green cave]

Yup

[hoary ermine]

And weve found more than a thousand ways to consume it, aliens fear us, plants hate us and animals hate us as well, we are a species

[haughty pine]

We are indeed a species

[crisp forge]

This is a certified Society Moment

[haughty pine]

[quaint halo]

Plants evolve a painful chemical mixture to prevent animals from eating them...
Humans: "imma add that to all my food"
Plants: surprised Pikachu

[quaint halo]

Also if there are two things human civilizations separated by continents always come up with its this.

Some form of fermentation that gets you alcohol and dice

Civilization needs click clack math rocks

[vivid rune]

A boy for a friend is all done. Got more models to go

[rocky badge]

i like how the mud looks pushed back by his steps

very cool

[twilit cliff]

oh that's neat

i get curious about models for regular things

like regular lil humans

is there a game attached to this or sth

[vivid rune]

Oh yea! Totally did that on purpose and didnt juat like...see that...when you pointed it out...yeaaa!!!

[vivid rune]

A family rpg

Painting thebminis for a friend

Ahe wants her 8 year old to catch the rpg bug at an early age

[twilit cliff]

ahh

[rocky badge]

play it cool

[vivid rune]

Lmao you give me far more credit than i deserve or think for that lol @rocky badge

That is a cool effect tho, even it it was completely unintentional

[rocky badge]

you have a subconscious god tier base maker trying to escape

[vivid rune]

I do like making fucking sweet bases

[twilit cliff]

do you think people will laugh at me when i whip out my box of minis and they all have transparent bases

[rocky badge]

of course

[twilit cliff]

feck

[rocky badge]

i hate working with transparent plastic anything for minis

it either will get a tiny splatter of paint or get scratched

[twilit cliff]

most people seem to hate them yeah

[violet hatch]

Have you seen the big ork?

[rocky badge]

yes hes in my room right now

[twilit cliff]

ive seen a couple of big orks in my time

[violet hatch]

The biggest ork?

[twilit cliff]

yo mo- nvm

[hasty sorrel]

[compact umbra]

I just realized that necromunda bodies would be amaizng for custom genestealer cults

[twilit cliff]

how would you kitbash them?

[green cave]

Well, there are actually gangs of the house that are infected, so it wouldn't be that weird to use some of those bodies for genestealers cults anyway

[compact umbra]

Head swap most of the time and some ezcult symbols

[compact umbra]

True

[dusk osprey]

Pictured: a baneblade that is not long for this world

[vivid rune]

Is it dead yet?

[dusk osprey]

Volcano lance beats baneblade

[vivid rune]

@dusk osprey good. Fuck the guard

[quaint star]

[twilit cliff]

rude

[visual cliff]

Oi nobody F the guards except the guard

and We Fuck Everyone up

[vivid rune]

Not with your current codex

[visual cliff]

I will have the last laugh , just you wait.

[hasty sorrel]

heres where our codex is just a nerf across the board

[edgy cipher]

Kinda hard to do that at this point unless you nerf the leman russ GW has been trying to buff into relevance

[crisp forge]

Why is tabletop like this 💀

[twilit cliff]

why are you like this tabletop

[compact umbra]

JESUS FUCLING CHRIST THE TRYANID COMBAT PATROL

ITS A FUCKING OCEAN OF PURPLE

[rocky badge]

big box

[compact umbra]

I mean it’s pure fucking termagants

[hoary ermine]

Its nothing new sadly

[compact umbra]

And I’m pretty sure it’s not even that good of an army list

But if you like gants then go crazy

[green cave]

Big bug box, there fixed for you

[dusk hill]

not at all unusual numbers of gaunts

[hasty sorrel]

its perfect

[compact umbra]

Imagine 500 points of custodies against this box

It’s gonna be 2 minutes of custodies, 20 minutes of tryanids

[plush swift]

Update. 2 Figures are still unpainted. After that the bases are next.

[twilit cliff]

nice job, very clean

[plush swift]

I gave my best. Thank you!

[dapper forge]

Trying to start a iron warrior army, what sets do yall recommend for a starting player looking to field a ~500pt army

[twilit seal]

well first of all you're gonna need iron within

and you'll want to follow up with some iron without

plenty of hazard stripes

and a teensy bit of incomprehensibly incandescent white-hot fury towards the imperial fists that can only be quelled by their destruction

[edgy cipher]

Some chaos space marines, a lot of daemon engines and some obliterators

I think a lord discordant might fit in well with some venomcrawlers

Also maybe a master of possession to buff said daemon engines

That's my extend on iron warrior knowledge

[elfin yew]

You can find loads of Forgefiends getting dumped onto ebay rn because of EO

[edgy cipher]

Oh yeah maybe even the warpsmith itself

The chaos side of EO alone is good

[charred ginkgo]

i hate shooty nids

i know it's probably the way to win with them

i just hate it

[dapper forge]

Awesome thanks

nids model got leaked

[crisp forge]

It... looks okay

not the most creative design will admit

[proud gorge]

something about it kinda bugs me

[crisp forge]

shut up

OH MY GOD

[proud gorge]

[crisp forge]

AAA-

[urban harbor]

that looks awesome

[vivid rune]

it looks

[dusk hill]

looks like a nid

[vivid rune]

poorly balanced

[dusk hill]

nothing super remarkable

[crisp forge]

Yeah its just a normal nid model

looks more like a kitbash than something brand new

[rocky badge]

looks like a tyranid

[urban harbor]

its a flying trygon what isnt to love?

[vivid rune]

im worried that its going to have the problem all nids monsters have

[crisp forge]

Oh yeah also puddles

where did this come from?

The image i mean

[vivid rune]

artwork in the articles

theyve been posting

[crisp forge]

Ah got it

the warhammer articles?

like the community site?

[vivid rune]

yea

kinda like how the new boyz got leaked

they were in new mini photos

[urban harbor]

the head kinda looks like an alien queen

[vivid rune]

yea

i hope with the new codex and re packaging of their kits they tweak base sizes for nids

so they stop being so fucking top heavy

but i dont think they will considering this new one looks EXTREMELY poorly balanced lol

[brisk vapor]

love it

[hasty sorrel]

thats just a trygon using hive tyrant parts isnt it?

[brisk vapor]

nah it's smaller

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/900316067082149928/950768906581205052/CGw1hEPXwPkvGFdu.png

[crisp forge]

Its a character

an oldie

https://warhammer40k.fandom.com/wiki/Parasite_of_Mortrex

it's a special character that was introduced in 5th edition and then immediately dropped in 6th after the Chpaterhouse farce, that I'm quite happy to see come back. Flying monster that injects Ripper parasites into people which then eat them from the inside out

[brisk vapor]

about time nids got some more characters

on the tabletop

[hoary ermine]

Of course

As logged, the battle depicted between those marines and nids went horrible

The armor of one of the marines got a spec of acid, but the warrior will live with this trauma, learn from it and become stronger of it.

[vivid rune]

I like how the article was written like the nids were marines and the space marines were crayons

[quaint halo]

My guess is it's a kit that makes that character and then you have options for a different unit choice

[crisp forge]

[edgy cipher]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RS8Z7zbA1dQ

[brisk vapor]

yeah saw the leaks myself too, that seems very powerful

considering gargoyles come with those

[edgy cipher]

It's pretty good yeah

[brisk vapor]

quite interesting really, a really good contender to the devourers now

[edgy cipher]

Shooty nids might be more of a thing

[brisk vapor]

unless those get buffed as well

[edgy cipher]

Maybe a small AP -1 on the devourer

[brisk vapor]

they did say this army will be the opposite of Tau so very melee heavy you'd think

also what I hope

[edgy cipher]

Well Tyranids used to be build around having lots of options and making what you wanted from Horde, to monster mash, shooty or melee

[visual cliff]

well wouldn't it be time to buff the guard next?... like they get one special weapon free in each squad.

and some add buffs when in cover. and a BS for vehicles that stays constant

and lots of pts decrease

[edgy cipher]

Funny thing is that would only make guard unfun to play against

They end up like current taus

Which imo, has very good, but also terrible design

Tbh I wish the artillery rule of no los equals -1 to hit and no reroll was back

Would make guard and Tau way more tolerable

[visual cliff]

i just wanna field more troops and not go into that yucky conscript mess

[quaint star]

Whiteshirts with an inquisitor are a pretty decent way to do that nowadays, Ld 9 and hereticus has a spell to give them a 5++

maybe psychic barrier from an astropath too

[edgy cipher]

Yeah its a good strat

Malleus inquisitor for 2 casts on 2 whiteshields units of 30

If the squads get too thinned out, use 1 cp to fuse them together

[compact umbra]

how like, modular are harlequin armies? im tempted to get some

but im worried that any army list will just be mostly the same as others

[elfin yew]

Theres only one troop optipn and not many models in the army

So most harle armies will look rather similar, tho u can always do different things like focusing on jetbikes or boats or what have u

[violet hatch]

Boat 🚤

[quaint star]

Is the 9e codex out?

[elfin yew]

Yes

[quaint star]

ah

[elfin yew]

I still dont have mine because of ups fail

[quaint star]

Figured they'd have expanded the roster

[elfin yew]

Nag

Nah

No new models for harlequins

Technically you can now play harle focused with CWE support because of travelling players

[quaint star]

I'm pretty new to 40k's tabletop, does GW introduce models between codices?

[elfin yew]

Yeee

They do

USUALLY models come out with codices

But sometimes they just come out whenever

And now theyve been using KT to release new models too

Corsairs, for example

[compact umbra]

damn, i might have spoiled my self with chaos spac emarines, that army is like, next tier modular. you can pratically fill any playstyle with all the legions and equipments.

except maybe a vehicle army

i mean a daemon engine army is basically the same

i think they even have the vehicle tag

Flying

You can’t do flying

There’s only like, 3 flyer models

[quaint star]

Do they not get the marine flyers?

[compact umbra]

no i dont belive so

wait raptors dont have the flyer tag eitehr

oh wait they do

im dumb

they have fly not flyer

i forgot i have the curse called only the 8th edition codex

[quaint star]

A friend of mine thinks raptors are garbage, are they?

[compact umbra]

What legion?

It really depends on the legion. They are a must have for emperors children.

But for alpha legion. Hot fucking garbage

[quaint star]

How so?

Wait EC have the "always hit first" trait right?

[compact umbra]

Yup

Cruel duelist makes them fucking shred enemies with high armor. If you roll a 6.

Let me pull up the goon hammer

[compact umbra]

But yeah. Really good for emperors children and night lords. Uhh kinda mid on like, most others. Alpha legion they are trash. And are pretty okay on black legion.

OH YEAH RHEY ALSO GET A SECOND ATTACK ON ROLLS OF 5+ OR 4+

Depending if you use a command point or not

For emperors children I mean

[quaint star]

Tentacles too

Eh I’ll think about it

Made my first Heroforge Mini. Now I’m printing it, but here’s what he looks like on the Website

He was my character for a Sky Islands flying warships campaign.

Hopefully I can paint him similarly in real life

I just realized that harlequins are almost just like the night haunts rules wise, I really want to make a night haunt army and I’d probably really like a harlequins army too then

Wait that the fuck does this even mean?

[radiant nebula]

No negative modifiers for shooting from an advancing transport maybe?

[plush swift]

Basically it can advance and shoot embarked pistol weapons but with no penalty

[compact umbra]

Wow, this seems, very very situational especially on harlequins

[radiant nebula]

Tbf harlequins have a lot of pistol weapons and some pretty good transports

[compact umbra]

OHHH okay the soaring spites are all about embarking and disembarking vehicles

I see now

Wow the dreaming shadow masque seems like hot fucking garbage

[elfin yew]

Those masques arent relevant anymore

Thats 8e codex

The masques are now just fluff

Theres just 3 harlequin 'subfactions' now

[compact umbra]

Damn for real?

[elfin yew]

Yee

Light, Twilight, and Dark

I dont have my codex on me right now but I mostly remember their traits

[compact umbra]

That is, depressing

Are the 3 sub factions like, super customizable or is basically only 3 play styles

Oh shit they don’t even have their own codex?

[elfin yew]

Light cannot be hit on a 1-3 beyond 12" and count as not moving for the purposes of shooting

Twilight consolidates a extra 2" and get +1 attack on charge

Dark gets a extra ap and fights on death
