why woudl it say that if your honly epic heroes have the ynnari keyword

in fact the imperium probably even created their own

They’re explicitly convergent evolution lol

Which is the funniest shit ever

Same with meltas and Las weapons

this model is amazing

oh nice

I still get confused with the descriptions of how melta gun fire patterns work

but its also a laser?

its a spread laser?

and whatever the multi melta is

I like how the deathwatch have oddballs from other chapters working together

grey knights are kinda heavily weaponized as a collective

which yknow, fair enough

it's funny because chapters do kinda all dislike eachother to some degree

but force them to work together and they become friends

Get along shirt

also what pattern of armor is this

probably mark 8 like most

notice the neck guard

it's just slightly improved mark 7

he looks alright

watch captain is like a company captain right

#

in terms of rank

#

although that model is a watch master , he could stand to look a lil more dripped out ig

i prefer deathwatch having less distinctiveness

you mean in terms of original chapter or like generally more subdued

crystal forum
#

less ostentatious

sour hornet
summer mural
#

I like this though

crystal forum
#

deathwatch paint their armour black for a reason

summer mural
#

and I agree, but the reason I say that guy could look a lil more dripped out is hes supposed to be basically the best in terms of deathwatch ranks iirc

sour hornet

Yeah, to obscure their chapter origins, not to be less ostentatious. Get that fucker a gold-plated power gauntlet.

it's a very fun character dynamic yeah

especially for space marines since most of their stories is all about brother this and brother that

i wish these guys came back

oh nice

#

that storm drake is pretty 🔥

crystal forum
#

so i genuinely think that if GW brought back all the regiments they'd make money

#

there's a lot more guard fans these days

#

Im sure sm2 and rogue trader increased the number of 40k fans

#

especially sm2

crystal forum
#

GW still thinks that people just want cadians and a little krieg, well actually they finally realized that krieg has a LOT of fans

hopefully they keep adding regiments

oh yeah

winter vessel

but their design is very cool

crystal forum
#

there's infinite guard regiment proxies to print

#

my fav is a valhallan proxy army i found

#

it's SO good

#

i love when proxy makers actually double down on the aesthetics instead of what GW does

#

i want a russian looking leman russ

#

but GW will never make one because it would cost too much to make that many variant moulds

winter vessel
#

here's another i wish got more love

oh those guys

maccabians do need models

i think he got the heads from some alternate source, he didn't specify on his post. but among the comments it gave a link to LiberDaemonica.com

alright i've concluded those are autoguns

#

just extremely large caliber autoguns

my fav autogun is still the M40

i was so happy to find one in rogue trader

I like heavy intercessor, the only good looking gravis armour.

summer mural

I like the choice that hes just this super deadly long range leadership marine, since the officers in particular tend to get all close range w pistol and melee weapon

surrounding a gravis captain with aggressors is

awesome

here comes the pain train

sure the models can be decent for the game but it's not the reason people get these

i got unbroken thinkin it would at least have weapon options

as somebody who wasn't even around when its source artwork was made i kinda dont care anymore lol

well that's a YOU problem then

I wish that we have more light loadout elite troops.

#

Not every elite has to go with heavy bulky armours.

crystal forum
#

carapace is a core part of elite militarum which i agree is odd

#

they can't have power armour because aesthetic and lore reasons

summer mural
#

arent catachan devils like

#

nearly shirtless

crystal forum
#

they have flak i think

dapper gyro
#

Yes, however, the squad leader model has an armour vest...

crystal forum
#

their muscles are the flak

summer mural
#

also its hilarious how the concept of head protection doesnt exist in an entire guardsman regiment

#

"bro just wear your bandana"

crystal forum
summer mural
#

indeed

crystal forum
#

tbh it's not like flak helmets help much when you're moving through a jungle

summer mural
#

i guess they also dont need like headshot protection on their ho-yeah

crystal forum
#

helmets historically were for shrapnel and stuff

#

catachan barely use artillery afaik

dapper gyro
#

Elite high speed low drag troops, at least irl, only need head and chest protection, knees sometimes, because speed is a kind of protection in itself.

crystal forum
#

you can find tons of images of elite troops all over the world foregoing head protection

summer mural
#

well they have mobile heavy bolters, but yeah they dont like to sit in a trench and exchange shots all day

from the footage i've seen, vietnam era green berets and such often didn't bother with helmets

No one would wear that shit.

Bug helmet

tactical modular bullshit

the only thing worth attaching to a helmet is night vision devices

those nods are like 40 grand per nod

crystal forum
summer mural

also thats 40 grand literally for the army, i imagine civilians have to pay more

dapper gyro

Also, helmet on and off depends on the mission. If you are doing foot reconnaissance, you wouldn't bring a helmet with you.

first time i saw 4 nods was in the movie Zero Dark thirty. I was like, 9? and i thought "whoa that's creepy" when they were wearing them

But then I realized

I would totally also do that if I had the money

#

Purely because it looks cool

Also some of our guys get 2 trophy russian monoculars* like this and attach* them on special railing to get basically standard NVG

4 nodes look great, but the neck pain after the mission... Is not service related.

id buy that new 5000 series gtx card if I had money

it showcased like a couple hours ago maybe

opaque coyote

5 years old

And recent games are starting to cook it

Literally no reason to get a 50 series

summer mural

that is true

opaque coyote

Probably gonna buy a pre built with the 5000 series like

#

6 months later

#

Not now though

summer mural

50 series is a bit much, I think even 40 series is like still overkill mostly

opaque coyote

For obvious reasons

to specify, it's E ink screens that dont emit light

Oh

it's not just ereaders that use e ink screens

Backlit yes, but not the same as general screen pixel.

Before fucking off

#

The only one that’s weird they’re absent in is Arks of Omen

pine wedge
#

which is not in current day of the lore timeline but still a pretty big 40k storyline

rose thorn

They engaged some Arks but they weren’t the focus

Basically everyone was involved with it to some extent whether they liked it or not

arctic talon

I wouldn’t be shocked if it turns out they’re letting it play out for a reason

And/or they show up to fuck up Vashtorr/Abby D’s plans

Considering a cheeky in universe comment was made about it

They’re letting it happen or planning something

dusk patrol

It’s basically just that iirc, he comments on a few different things

ok well depending on what campaign book you want you can literally read it on the wiki

LOL

dusk patrol
#

Warhammer+ has a lot of stuff too if you want a catalogue

#

Seven bucks, download it all

storm jungle
#

Yeah really depends on what you want. Just uh without saying too much as Eternal said sometimes its worth googling certain things and simply adding a "PDF" to the end of it shall we say

Or perhaps imagining the campaign book is a slave

And how you could free it

That works too

There’s also recasting of all them always

You can still find the first years models on eBay I think

Although in all absolute fairness

I am also aesthetically torn between the two

The Secutarii looks cooler

whats the other one?

raven stone

The one we discussed earlier

arctic talon

The axiarch

Axiarch looks cooler

arctic talon
#

The peltasts and hoplites are both upgrade sprue

#

The axiarch has titanshard armor

raven stone
#

Doesn’t have a 40k profile, so good enough for me

#

So long as it doesn’t clash with 40k era rules I am happy to use it as an Inquisitor…

Looks like a skitarii marshal is all

But whatever
