barren prawn
#

storm jungle

its very much gonna be Wolves

barren prawn
#

storm jungle
#

Well yes

queen laurel
storm jungle

Death in 40k is meaningless unless it's not

queen laurel
storm jungle

#

Jokes aside though yeah its deffo Russ next, after that its whoever Chapter that makes the 3rd most money

#

and on it will go probably

celest dome
#

The only one that won't return 100% is Ferrus

#

Just because he isn't popular KEKW_ogryn

barren prawn
#

arent ravens and scars less popular?

storm jungle
#

Largely yes

#

Ravens and Scars come close, the latter only lives through Jackson Khan memes and Mongol jokes

#

I mean we had one last week who turned out to be a anti-semite

#

the tropes just fill themselves

queen laurel
storm jungle
#

40k fan cycle

forest orbit
#

well "popular"

storm jungle
#

Yeah a lot of people like Wolves

#

im iffy on them but i entered into 40k reading some of their books first

queen laurel
#

i like Ulfar because he is unapologetically stereotypical fictional viking

storm jungle
#

Ye pretty much. They can be done well but they very much deserve all the ridicule they also get

forest orbit
#

I really feel bad for people that think the Wolf naming scene is a joke

queen laurel
storm jungle
#

LOL I mean i guess

storm jungle
forest orbit
#

I dropped a book halfway through once due to it

storm jungle
#

Which one was it

forest orbit
storm jungle
#

He doesn't know.

forest orbit
#

He doesn't know.....

queen laurel

forest orbit

#

Theres definitely a lot more wolf names though

#

one day im gonna make an image like that and gather them

#

its just so time consuming lol

rose thorn
#

i heard sapce wolves werent as bad at first

#

like when there was 2 writers

storm jungle
#

They arent bad at all and dont suffer from the fucking uh

#

"1 Writer who only writes for them" syndrome

#

they DO have some absolute dogshit books like Wolftime but most of the others are neat.

viral halo
#

John Grammaticus is a great character

storm jungle
#

shut the fuck up

#

also Lukas the Trickster for example is one of my fav 40k SW/Dark Eldar books

rose thorn
#

the months of shame is some of the most inferiating lore ever

storm jungle
#

it is but for once it makes sense

#

its the Wolves being too proud and the Inquisition being idiotic

rose thorn
#

yeah taht part is fine

viral halo
barren prawn
rose thorn
#

but the space wolves destroy the grey knights and steal an axe with a khorne demon in it

queen laurel

queen laurel

also half of the space wolf models are dog water

storm jungle

hehe

#

dogwater

#

because canine

queen laurel
#

Good for the DE fans

rose thorn
#

i heard this kit is good for HH

#

space wolves hh*

#

WHAT THE FUCK

#

IS THIS

queen laurel
rose thorn
#

Canis Wolfborn

#

Canis Wolfborn is one of the most feral and destructive warriors on all of Fenris. Raised by a pack of Fenrisian wolves in the snow-swept wilderness of Fenris, he is wolf-brother to mighty Fangir, the largest and most powerful of all the Thunderwolves. In battle they are an inseparable whirlwind of claws and fangs that combine brute strength with resourceful cunning.

it shouldn't be that difficult

vagrant fox
#

I suspect he's always high on something so you just gotta scare him first

viral halo
#

I just wish he wasn't stuck in 2013 mentally

#

#

His daughter that he disowned for being trans has an onlyfans

He does stupid shit to be fair

EREBUS WHAT WAS IN THAT DAVINITE BLOOF?

outer wave

Plus a ton of supplements

viral halo
#

I'll do it

outer wave
#

I hope you're able to

#

Then crush your enemies with your massive pecs

viral halo
#

I'm on a weight cut rn and I'm in hell

#

1 coffee, 3-4 protein shakes a day, supplements for all the vitamins I'm missing, a salad, and a meal

#

and then on Sat/Sunday I eat whatever

outer wave
#

Damn thats dedication

#

I dont think I could ever do that tbh

#

I love food way too much

vagrant fox
#

Too much effort for me, I just eat whatever and then train my pecs

outer wave
#

Same, or least thats what I would be doing anyway

#

Ive been pretty bad at going to the gym as of late

vagrant fox
#

Makes me wonder about warhams fitness regimes

#

What's the ideal underhiver nutrition and exercise plan

outer wave
#

3 days without food, and alot of running

#

Or labour

spring cairn
#

you need 1.5x times your weight

vagrant fox
#

Exercise by killing big mutant rats

outer wave
spring cairn
#

not worth the hassle

spring cairn
#

you'll already have sore muscles after working out with the ogryn

rocky gale
#

Is that the Oath head option or is there another one?

rose thorn
#

It’s the dark oath mask that the chieftain wears

rocky gale
#

Oh the one on the right?

rose thorn
#

Yeee

#

Oh it’s got oath stones too

rocky gale
#

I think I prefer the other one

#

With the open mouth

#

The skull helmets a bit too goofy looking for me

rose thorn
#

I am a dark oath supporter LINGCATpray

#

I love them so much

rocky gale
#

Yea but the open mouth helmet reads as Darkoath to me as well

#

Like it looks like it's got a rune on the face

rose thorn
#

I like the open mouth too but it leans a lot more chaos warrior then DO

rocky gale
#

Hm

rose thorn
#

Guh such a good model

rocky gale
#

Not a big fan, but the helmeted option improves the model so much

rose thorn
#

Agreed

celest dome
#

I don't like the mount tbh

rocky gale
#

The mount is too much

#

I've talked about it before a bunch but the combination of mount, the pose and the colour scheme choices aren't great

celest dome
#

Or not enough OmegaGuardsmanHype

rocky gale
#

Everything draws your eyes to the Mount, not the character

celest dome
#

This is one of the best Mounted character

#

In AoS

#

I love her

queen laurel
#

these two do the thing that that model fails in

celest dome
#

Sure, but he isn't Tahlia

queen laurel
#

the mounts are amazing but they don't take away on the main model

celest dome
#

Ye, the rider has personality

rocky gale
#

Yea Tahlia Vehdra is great because she herself is still an eye catching figure on a massive mount, like the Manticore is posed and positioned in such a way that it frames the focus towards the character Tahlia

queen laurel
rocky gale
#

Whereas everything about Abraxia causes her to blend in with the Mounts armour

celest dome
#

Example in battle fantasy

#

And Tahlia's weapon choices ❤️‍🔥

#

Honestly Cities of Sigmar is such a great faction.
Golden standard for me

rose thorn

It’s insane to believe I own this model

My new favorite picture

rose thorn
#

LINGCATpray AOS has more demon models then 40k

#

It’s beautiful

storm jungle
#

The creativity is also really nice to see

#

it looks DISGUSTING

outer wave
#

I like and hate that their stomachs are containing objects

celest dome
#

Love the Tick one

storm jungle
#

the one with the hole'y stomach is fucking gnarly

outer wave
#

Im confused by that one because I cant tell if its like a massive pot thats barely in the belly or his flaps are just over the pot

celest dome
#

The pot is in his belly

#

Like a Marsupial pouch

outer wave
#

Because it looks like the metal pedestal is jutting out at the bottom and its confusing me on how this guy moves

storm jungle
#

Yeah the pot is its belly

#

i just noticed, thats great lmao

celest dome
#

Who is helping prop up the pot

storm jungle
#

someone has to hold up the potbelly

celest dome
#

Shit, I just now realised the word play

storm jungle
#

fuck I JUST realised too

#

i was just saying it because its a slang for a fat stomach, damn it

For the lizards lovers in chat

shoutout to the smaller homies on the lower right

#

Frrr

#

Side note w/ the new battletomb

#

I hope that all the chaos factions can take archon again

burnt maple
#

We appreciating aos minis again?

#

If so, any new 40k minis to shit on?

arctic talon
burnt maple
#

I thought that was his sole purpose.

rose thorn
#

he had an army last edition for 5 minutes

#

it was a very very funny army

#

all demons, and you can literally shut down a unit for up to 2 rounds

arctic talon
#

He had it for a bit

rose thorn
#

oh lmao

arctic talon
#

And then it got it’s legs hacked off

#

Belakor getting more love in 40K then AoS is always a 💀 for me tbh

rose thorn
#

Does he though?

#

AOS belakor has like 3 belakor specific units

#

Oh and a hero

arctic talon
#

Not mini wise

rose thorn
#

Oh

arctic talon
#

Belakor literally does nothing in AoS most of the time

#

Also he gets treated better rules wise in 40K imo

#

He’s been very good consistently

#

Belakor in AoS fluctuates

#

Wildly

rose thorn
#

NOo, he betrays archeon

#

Like every battle tome

#

And that’s it

arctic talon
rose thorn
#

Which he does to abbadon too

arctic talon
#

Tbf

#

He’s not aligned with abbadon

#

In 40K

#

He’s running his own show on his own

#

And then he steals an entire moon and most of a knight house

rose thorn
#

Yeah

arctic talon
#

Idk

#

I feel like belakor gets treated like shit in AoS lore wise lol

#

I want him to do more

rose thorn
#

Yee

arctic talon
#

Like he gets treated much better in terms of getting related minis

#

In AoS

#

But 40K gives him more lore + better rules

#

Like

rose thorn
#

What’s his rules right now?

#

Oh

#

Meh

arctic talon
rose thorn
#

In AOS I just checked

arctic talon
#

Oh

#

Yeah his rules in AoS are super meh

#

His rules in 40K are goated rn

rose thorn
#

I feel like his trap ability should always happen instead of a 3+

arctic talon
#

I agree

rose thorn
#

It feels like the balancing team over estimated how good the chain activations would be

#

When we have a strike first strike last system already

#

Hey who owns the comic rights to hell boy?

languid meadow
#

For comics? I think dark horse does

opaque coyote
#

Y'know what

#

Cause I'm bored

#

I genuinely wonder

#

What the fuck would the Roster be for a Warhammer 40k fighting game

#

Or just Warhammer in general

#

Imagine Nurgle squaring up against Sigmar

spare osprey
#

I can imagine a space marine with a power fist, a striking scorpion, some unique nid

#

Go wild with it

#

Cause the moment you throw in something like a primarch it’s really hard to find an equivalent across factions

opaque coyote
#

Animalistic

#

Like all fours

#

They scratch instead of punch

spare osprey
#

Mhm

opaque coyote
#

Etc

spare osprey
#

A tau brawler suit of some sort

opaque coyote
#

Also it is entertaining to imagine the Emperor fighting against Khaine for some reason

#

Idk why

opaque coyote
#

The Tau would be uh

#

A zoner I think it's called

#

Basically keep person far away

arctic talon
#

Tau and guardsmen should both be zoners

#

lol

#

Shoot shoot shoot

#

also depends on if its a traditional 2d fighting game

#

or if its like

#

an anime fighter

#

or a tag fighter, ect.

spare osprey
arctic talon
#

Or if its the worst option mortal kombat

queen laurel
#

slow but hit's like a giant truck

spare osprey
#

Make the ork fighter a grot lol

arctic talon
#

both

#

lol

#

Ork would be a big body or a fast grappler

#

either one is funny

#

because orks aren't slow

queen laurel
arctic talon
#

Zangief is not a fast grappler

#

a fast grappler is Hakkan

queen laurel
arctic talon
#

He is the only Turkish character in SF

queen laurel
#

can you imagine an ork doing a zangief move

#

with a rokkit pack

#

funniest image i have seen

arctic talon
#

Lol

#

SPD

queen laurel
#

Probably a Nob right

#

A warboss is like gigantic

arctic talon
#

prolly

#

idk what they want to do

#

big bodies and grapplers can get comically big

#

fuck it make it like Blazblue Crosstag

#

add a fucking tank

queen laurel
arctic talon
#

Funniest fucking character

#

they're terrible

queen laurel
#

Make it a Leman russ

arctic talon
#

lol

opaque coyote
#

Probably a Space Marine

dusk patrol
#

Maybe Ad Mech

#

Although you could make arguments for Ad Mech for most archetypes

opaque coyote
#

Also I was thinking maybe the Guardsmen would actually be represented by a Commissar.

Basically a "Puppet" character.

dusk patrol
#

Which is probably why all arounder fits

opaque coyote
#

A Commissar and a Guardsman

#

Commissar makes commands

#

Guardsman follows

opaque coyote
#

Khornate Daemon/CSM would definitely be a grappler tho

#

What's more Khorne than literally getting as close and fucking personal as you can get

celest dome
#

Guardsman should be a special character with combo that 'summon' other Guardsman for a single attack
Like at some point you have a Vox operator come in and call in artillery on the other player

queen laurel
tight stratus
#

Do necromancers exsist in any form in 40k? I was thinking about necromancer from vermintide 2 and thats in fantasy.

And as far I Know fantasy 40k is 40k years back in time, 40k is 40k future. So its all sort of connected so there should be some semblence of that in 40k right?

queen laurel
#

but to answer your question

tight stratus
#

Ah that's my bad then

queen laurel
#

yes you can use psychic powers to imitate necromancy

#

in a way that you puppeteer the corpse

tight stratus
#

Is Chaos a form of that? Or what Nurgle does

#

or is that just literal brain rot

queen laurel
#

Psychic powers in warhammer can literally take anything you can imagine as long as you have the ample energy for it

#

it's basically magic but a bit more dangerous

storm jungle
#

remember that 40k is literally just a fantasy setting with a sci-fi flair

#

that + being a soup setting of every kind of genre/trope/aesthetic to some extent

celest dome
#

Are there non-plague Zombies

storm jungle
#

Re-animated dead people are very much a thing yeah

#

literally just instead of nurgle its some random warp effect re-animating dead tissue yada yada

celest dome
#

I didn't remember those being shown of, well I guess the TSons are

storm jungle
#

TSons are more automatons than zombies

#

but yeah they exist

#

its just tied to nurgle mostly because marketing

queen laurel
storm jungle
#

again any kind of thing-a-magic exists

#

puppetry and actual necromancy are both pretty much prevalent

celest dome
#

Zombies used to be part of Automatons before

raven stone
#

Could also be xenos parasite puppets if you want

#

for Zombies

#

(except they happen to prefer corpses rather than human beings for whatever biological reason)

remote widget
#

So custodes are immune to chaos and pretty resistant against the warp, right? would their armour and resistance work against the librarius/grey Knight/ SoB powers, as its probably not as chaosy?

shadow plover
#

it doesn't even protect them from the naked fist of a world eater legionary..

remote widget
remote widget
storm jungle
#

Their corruption resistance factor comes from themselves/their body, mind etc

rocky gale
#

The fancy thing about Custodes armour is the aurumite is quantumly inert so doesn’t interfere with aetheric energies

#

Which is fancy talk for regular armour interferes with psychic powers, Custodes armour doesn’t

storm jungle
#

Oh right wait new lore

#

yeah before that it was just "strong gold" lol

queen laurel

every time that you remember that book you become closer to worshipping khorne

Genuinely.

a lot of people end up going into the hole for scrap/archeotech

Has the imperium ever tried to explore outside the galaxy? Or would it just be impossible/ not worth the effort

They've sent probles, but seeing as they're only hearing Orkish

They think they are only Orks outside of it

gray umbra

I vaguely remember reading theyre also limited by the astronomicans light

this is largely the reason why

but its also largely just not worth the effort yeah

extragalactic expansion would only be considered once the Milky Way is fully conquered

#

which is never happening so lol

gray umbra
#

Imperium is in decline too so definitely not happening

#

Its just a matter of when gw kills the ip

queen laurel
#

If they even plan on venturing outside the galaxy

storm jungle
#

yeah its just too many issues

queen laurel
#

probably 10,000 years

storm jungle
#

its about as likely as humanity ever colonizing the solar system IRL lol

spare osprey
#

Do wonder how chaos is doing outside the Milky Way tho

#

Tired of the whole “oh nids are running away from something” unknown space thing

celest dome
#

They're running from starvation

#

They at everything and are just advancing to where there's food

storm jungle
#

Some books say they are stuck here other books say they see the entire universe

#

which like, lol

#

Yet their entire attention is for some reason just here because plot

spare osprey
#

exactly

#

Horus is just that special dog

storm jungle
#

Yeah I usually never do headcannons but it makes more sense that while the Warp is everywhere the chaos gods are largely 95% stuck into the Milky Way due to not having any influence from the size of the empty space between galaxies

#

it makes more sense due to how they are obsessed with it, even if daemons go "we will move onto somewhere else once this place is finished" like no bro you wont, GW decides that not you

It’s hard to hear anything outside of a snow globe Troll

Ancient ass lore

#

Said that 40k was in a snow globe on nagash’s shelf or something

storm jungle
#

Yeha it was some random empire wizard in fantasy

rose thorn
#

AOS has explored space Mroe than 40k actually

#

Chaos had spread across space and dimensions

queen laurel
#

and of course archaeon

rose thorn
#

Archeon’s sword is made from a far far away ancient sun dragon demon

queen laurel
#

the ******* has literally conquered multiple realms dimensions

#

At this point the guy is practically unkillable

rose thorn

The Slaanesh chaos lord with the demonette wife is from another dimension

queen laurel

Yeah but it’s also very grounded when it needs or wants to

Nah that’s just, his species

To be fair he is on steroids

This guy literally causes earthquakes just by stepping

He ate so much realm stone and killed all of his own kind and dragons

you may as well call yourself a demigod

Hello chat

karmic swift
#

hey

dusk patrol
#

Daemons are wrong a lot, and even when they’re not you can’t trust them.

storm jungle
dusk patrol
#

You can say that for anything

outer wave
dusk patrol
#

Like yeah some things are never gonna happen because the setting requires it

storm jungle
#

I mean yeah so?

#

Its the truth

#

its one of the biggest things i hate with this fandom looking for deep meanings behind everything, its just WWE with miniatures.

dusk patrol
#

It doesn’t add anything

storm jungle
#

Cool. Its still reality.

dusk patrol
#

We all know the setting has to exist

storm jungle
#

This is the same reason all those r40klore redditors give which is about as tiring.

#

"wah wah its not a satisfying answer"

forest orbit
#

to be fair

#

id understand it as a lame answer if it was any other setting

#

but i agree for it mostly because warhammer is a very corporate-run setting behind the scenes so i kinda get it lol

#

its like how half the events GW does are basically pointless but it gives people a fun thing to do

storm jungle
#

Yeah pretty much

#

its why I loved Oghram

dusk patrol
#

There’s a clear thematic point to why the daemons talk about moving on in Godblight through and it building up to the end of the book

storm jungle
#

a planet that just doesnt matter only to let people fuck around and play with their boxsets

forest orbit
#

Yeah that was done well

#

its much more gooderer when we arent dealing with galaxy shaking events that never do anything because we gotta sell minis

storm jungle
#

Yep lol

gray umbra
#

Ambiguity gives them room to add shit if they really wanted to or had a reason too

storm jungle
#

Yeah exactly

dusk patrol
#

It’s a setting, it’s not often they do things which are actually setting affecting events for a reason

forest orbit
#

It is known yes

storm jungle
#

😔

gray umbra
#

I can appreciate the suspension of disbelief otherwise u get people arguing about one line mentioned in a codex said like 5 editions ago

storm jungle
#

That too yeah

#

This fandom is largely garbage for a reason

gray umbra
#

Which still happens anyway lol

dusk patrol
#

People will still do that but that’s half the fun

storm jungle
#

I mean not really

#

it depends

dusk patrol
#

There’s always some random shit you don’t know

forest orbit
#

yeah i was gonna say

#

id rather enjoy my day than spend an hour wasting my time arguing with some cunt over how a melta fires

storm jungle
#

great example lul

#

"Well Brother Childestroyius fires it as a beam in this novel"

#

"Ok but Brother Fuckcivillianus fires it as a blast in this text"

#

like who gives a shit

forest orbit
#

they do apparently

#

for uh

#

"reasons"

#

dumb ones

queen laurel
dusk patrol
#

People who wanna talk about it, no one’s putting a gun to your head and making you do it

storm jungle
#

I mean so? Its annoying

forest orbit
#

^

dusk patrol
#

Then ignore it

forest orbit
#

easier said than done

dusk patrol
#

Not really

forest orbit
#

your thing of "ignore it" is not really good advice either

queen laurel
#

hard to ignore something when it literally shows up even when you try to

forest orbit
#

Yeah really

storm jungle
#

"just ignore it"

#

works every time (not)

forest orbit
#

Not everyone is as wantingly ignorant

#

i wanna enjoy black templars but 90% of my fandom is filled with fascists i try to ignore but always get shit shoveled in my face

#

or get asked if im a fascist/homophobe

#

guess im just not ignoring them enough

storm jungle
#

yeah pal thats on you clearly

dusk patrol
#

That has, nothing to do with what was said but ok

#

That stuff you should definitely push back on, but it’s not the same as quibbling over little lore bits

forest orbit
#

ugh

#

SSDD

crystal forum
#

i just dont interact with the online community at all therefore i genuinely have no idea what the average black templar is

storm jungle
#

Uh

#

you've seen most of it here i think lol

#

its either some racist or homophobe

#

like, every time

#

its kind of funny after awhile

storm jungle
#

40k semantics are prob the worst bit of this fandom

forest orbit
#

half the time its over shit that doesnt matter is the thing lol

#

if it was id get it

queen laurel
forest orbit
#

but its usually not so like lmao

storm jungle
#

story of my life

queen laurel
crystal forum
#

we all love arguing about pointless bullshit let's not kid ourselves B_DogCheemsSmile

forest orbit
#

Again it depends tbh

#

i like arguing when the person across from me isnt a dick about it

#

(not pointing fingers)

storm jungle
queen laurel
forest orbit
#

I got nothing better to do tbh

queen laurel
#

like somehow you can just smell out someone making trouble

forest orbit
#

i got back from work like an hour ago im just painting minis

#

i participated in class chats a bit when i first joined before i realised its all brainrot

#

so i just refrain now kek

queen laurel
#

it's a lot more fun here

#

used to also be common there but eh

forest orbit
#

Yeah i avoid those too but thats just a Me thing

#

id rather just do it myself unless its something real complex

queen laurel
dusk patrol
storm jungle
#

Yeah so basically all of us here.

forest orbit
#

I was expecting you to say just him

storm jungle
#

I mean hes pretty annoying about it too but like idgaf most of the time.

forest orbit
dusk patrol
#

Acting like any of your are above it with the record of this channel is

#

Amusing

rose thorn
#

Above what

#

Arguing pointlessly?

#

That what warhammer is for baby

#

“Your opinion is wrong and stupid bring your tau army we’re facing off at dawn”

#

“Sorry got work :p”

#

“Next week then”

celest dome
#

What is a nerd if not someone who love pointless arguments

storm jungle
#

my guy hitting me with the "amusing" 😭

dusk patrol
#

Well maybe I wasn’t talking to you

rose thorn
#

Hey what the fuck is going on with genestealer cult codex

#

It’s winning because of the most bullshit strategy ever

#

One subfaction just, does nothing

#

The faction ability is on its 5th rework

#

At least one stratagems doesn’t do anything m in every subfaction

#

And the faction ability is just not deep strike

#

I’m so confused

dusk patrol
#

Sometimes stuff underperforms, or balance means some things suffer more, it’s the nature of wargaming metas

rose thorn
#

And this next rework could break even more

dusk patrol
#

Right now we’re in a weird balance phase, and factions caught between are definitely weird rn

#

In general I would say just use 9e rules if it’s that big an annoyance for you

#

Assuming the other person is ok with that

rose thorn
#

im gonna just wait on the next rewoerk :p

#

also i dont have my gsc army w/ me atm

storm jungle
#

i dont even play the game and all i hear are critical complaints KEKW_ogryn

rose thorn
#

there is a greater than zero chance they change the faction rule, and it breaks every single datasheet that uses ambush tokens dont work

#

i heard just, giving an army wide deep strike and changing all instances of cult ambush tos omething with reserves would work

#

but that also seems like thinsg would break

languid meadow
storm jungle
#

LMFAO

#

No need to post that

#

😭

arctic talon
#

Genestealer cult codex this edition is an atrocity

#

But it’s playable

storm jungle
#

the abuse cycle is REAL

arctic talon
#

Somehow

#

It’s power level isn’t atrocious(somehow)

#

But it needs help

queen laurel
dusk patrol
#

Definitely could use some more FAQing

#

Come on Genestealahs, score some FAQing!

#

Mostly I’ve just seen people use 9e rules if they really can’t stand 10e, hopefully 11e will introduce some more complexity back to the game

#

It definitely needed to be simplified from the bloat from before but it’s a bit much rn.

rocky gale
#

Soul Grinder finally being banished to the shadow realms

storm jungle
#

finally its gone

queen laurel
outer wave
#

Ground into soul

#

Soulgrounder......

rocky gale
storm jungle
#

Vashtorr got SCAMMED

outer wave
#

They should make more Daemon engines tbh

dusk patrol
#

Soul Grinder? I hardly knew her!

queen laurel
outer wave
#

SoulGrindr

storm jungle
outer wave
queen laurel
arctic talon
#

Soulgrinder sucks ass

#

lol

rocky gale
arctic talon
#

Maybe we'll get an updated sculpt

#

for it

#

where it doesn't look like shit

outer wave
#

They're not fitting for AoS and WF

storm jungle
#

yeah it had to get put down

#

for the best

rocky gale
#

Yea I can see it maybe getting an updated model specifically for 40k, but this is confirming it's getting phased out of AoS (atleast for now)

outer wave
#

For the best I think

#

Imagine chaos dwarden Daemon engines though in AoS

#

Could he gnarly

#

Be*

storm jungle
#

its AOS

dusk patrol
#

Could he gnarly?

arctic talon
#

tbh

dusk patrol
#

Could he not?

arctic talon
#

it'll prolly be in AoS

#

if it gets a new sculpt

storm jungle
#

^

outer wave
dusk patrol
#

When will you wear hats?

arctic talon
#

the thing is the soul grinder only lives on rn

#

because uh

#

its using the defiler kit for half of it

dusk patrol
#

Defiler? I hardl-

#

New Defiler model would be cool although I don’t think that’ll be for awhile

queen laurel
dusk patrol
#

There’s a lot of stuff they have 40k and AoS versions for, or WHF in the past

queen laurel
#

Plus in aos they fit even more

#

There are literally dwarves in aos that fly in warships and have laser guns

dusk patrol
#

It’s easy to change the sculpt a bit and sometimes they don’t even need to

queen laurel
#

A demon that is half mechanical leg isn't that ridiculous

outer wave
#

Maybe that's cope idk

queen laurel
#

The other chaos gods definitely also benefit from it

dusk patrol
#

The point is they can adjust it a little even then for AoS or whatever

queen laurel
#

Like on a setting basis them having mechanical demons isn't the most ridiculous

dusk patrol
#

Make it look a little more fantasy

queen laurel
#

Like it was thing in fantasy

#

For a reason because

storm jungle
#

I think the grinder looks mechanical enough to be in Fantasy but i get people that dont agree with it

queen laurel
#

Yeah it makes sense but

storm jungle
#

ive seen this as a huge argument point over like two decades now lol

queen laurel
#

I wouldn't say they are completely not fitting on the setting

dusk patrol
#

It depends on how it’s painted largely for me, I’ve seen some which look much better for fantasy

arctic talon
#

The grinder was designed for fantasy first

dusk patrol
#

Either way, it needs a new model, if it’s gonna even get one. They’ll probably make it look a little more mixed or give it alternative options if they do that

rocky gale
#

I wouldn't say it doesn't fit Fantasy, I just don't like it's design generally

queen laurel
dusk patrol
#

I think it needs an update, same as Defiler

outer wave
#

Just give me new cooler Daemon engines

#

That's it

dusk patrol
#

I don’t love the looks though and don’t care much for either a ton

queen laurel
dusk patrol
#

The other daemon engines we have are cooler imo

outer wave
arctic talon
queen laurel
storm jungle
outer wave
#

Fuse his legs to a dragon mech idk

queen laurel
dusk patrol
#

Except maybe Lord of Skulls although it is a nice centerpiece model

outer wave
#

Dinosaur Daemon engine legs

#

Sanguinius top

#

Dark Gundam his design

dusk patrol
#

If we get a Perturabo model they might go crazy with that

outer wave
#

Make a bigger version of himself his lower half

storm jungle
#

Daemon primarch models usually slap since they can go more fantasy with them

outer wave
#

Half lil tentacles with his head sprouting out

#

Bam, cool sick as design

rocky gale
#

If we get Pert I really hope they don't take it down the same design route as Vashtorr

storm jungle
#

Nah i doubt it

#

Vashtorr is entirely his own thing

rocky gale
#

Good

storm jungle
#

they say as much in his design background when he got revealed

dusk patrol
#

We have a description for Perturabo but I expect they might not keep that one

storm jungle
#

on uhhh warcom

dusk patrol
#

We’ll see

rocky gale
#

Because I fucking hate the Vashtorr model

storm jungle
#

supremo garbago

queen laurel
storm jungle
#

Lmao NOT THAT bad

#

it deffo has more thought put into it than those trash OCs

#

its just iffy for me

#

im glad other people like it but eh

dusk patrol
#

I like the hand

storm jungle
#

the hand is good

#

the hammer is cool

#

the body ehhh idk its fine

dusk patrol
#

I think if I had to change I would remove the wings

#

And add like

#

A corrupted servo harness

arctic talon
#

I like vashtor to an extent

dusk patrol
#

And stuff like that

arctic talon
#

his wings are bleh

#

he looks way better in art

#

then as a mini

rocky gale
#

A lot of thought, it's why his hammer is called "Vashtorr's hammer" and his claw is called "Vashtorrs claw"

dusk patrol
#

He’s a little too generic as a daemon look

#

Just add more shit and mechanical stuff

arctic talon
#

He looks much better in art

rose thorn
#

Oh have we talked about the new necromudna stuff?

dusk patrol
arctic talon
dusk patrol
#

Not everyone needs to name their sword something cool

storm jungle
rose thorn
#

I think vashtorr’s model looks like a proxy model

rose thorn
