desu, the game feels really samey and unbalanced. just constant roadblocks until someone is forced to move, then the opponent can get to the other side of the board, and immediately capture everything. really could do with some good updates.

NTA but I remember mentioning about how Trayzn's vault could metaphorically be seen as a vault of discarded Black Library plot ends that won't be resolved. I'm surprised that Yvraine hasn't become part of Trayzn's collection so GW can "soft squat" the Ynnari as fragmented without their leader. I still find it hilarious that Yvraine is mostly just known because of her fanart for being Guilliman's stress relief bedroom toy.
>>98879146
>500 worlds
You reminded me of the 500 worlds campaign. How did that go and what are the respective endings of those campaign books? Especially the Iron Warriors and Red Corsairs one, too please.
What's Guilliman's justification for rebuilding the 500 Worlds and what are speculated reasons as I vaguely remember an anon saying he wants to secede from the Imperium. I don't have the PDFs.

It's not topical to the thread, but his routine bullshit was basically picrel. Did he see you doing something that you're completely within your rights to do, but he doesn't like? You're gonna hear about it for days. So at that point you just give up and keep doing it to ragebait him.
So the 40k equivalent is people being unable to handle banter, which in my desu opinion is one of the biggest reasons to give a shit about lore. See a custodesfag getting especially mad about lore? Poke him with the harlequins stick and see what happens.
>>
Can't decide between Imperial Knights, probably mixed with agents, Chaos Knights or Necrons
I really like the CK models but if gameplay revolves around wardog spam instead of using my giant stompy guys I'd get annoyed.
Necrons, I really like their models and reanimating seems fun.

What armies do you have already? I'm biased and want to say Knights+Agents since I do that myself (Subductor Squad + Vindictor Priest is a fun combo and cost as much as an Armiger pointswise) but if you already have an Imperium army or an army with a lot of large dudes Necron might be a good change of pace.

Robert Rath said he was interested in writing an Eldar novel next so we may see where that plot goes.
>>
>>98879227
>so the mon'keigh paw might be curling on that one
Yeah. It is gonna curl into a middle finger. I have a feeling this one might be a middle finger us and normies are gonna take offense to.

Calling it now:
The Ynnari are gonna besiege Trayzn's collection. Somehow they're gonna fail at getting the sword because Eldar seem mandated to always fail, and Slaanesh is too important to be deleted from 40k like he almost had happen in AoS. The sword will never be collected. Maybe they lost too many to reach it. Or it just teleported to another super secret base Trayzn has as a backup storage for his stuff.

Somehow they breach the museum of Trayzn's collection and despite all the violence and conflict of the battle, they don't damage any of it.
Except one, read the spoiler if you dare:
Clonegrim's holding cell so GW can sell another primarch model and finally blow the loyal chapters of traitor geneseed lid wide open and let the autism flood everywhere.

In other words. The Mon'keigh paw's middle finger is for Eldar fans who want their Eldar to have one win. For Necron fans who want something significant to happen for their faction again. And a middle finger to lore autists and space marine autists concerning future homebrewing.

In a silly twist it might be a real lore event that actually changes Warhammer 40k for real with lasting consequences for real this time. Just not in universe, but as a lore precedent citation for homebrew autism.

Seriously Mike Brooks' gay stuff in his Warhammer 40k books now feel like when Youtubers do their annoying in video sponsor segments.

>>98879269
>Why are professional writers so insufferable?
Because writing is an "art" and artists that make it with getting fame, money and a following get huge egos from the praise of their fans. I don't believe anybody here can resist the ego boost to pompous asshole proportions here. Myself included. It is the same for fanartists. It is the same for video game modders.
It is the same for Black Library Warhammer writers.
>>98879314
I think many Black Library Warhammer book writers in particular get embittered by how the books they only write for a paycheck are the ones that pay the bills and support them. While the stuff they really want to write don't make it and certainly are not making them big like how Harry Potter did with J.K. Rowling. They're all stuck with Warhammer and will only be remembered for Warhammer and nothing else. And that makes them bitter and spiteful to those who don't like their work.

More GSC or more Dark Coil? If the former, "Day of Ascension" is good, although for me the AdMech kinda stole the show; if the latter, you're in luck since Spiral Dawn is generally seen as one of his weaker works, so you'll be in for a treat when you pick up "Fire Caste" or "Requiem Infernal" or whatever.

More GSC, I got both Dark Coil omnibuses at the same time. Had to go outside google for the second one. Luckily some game store in CA had a copy, but it still cost me 40 bones.

Actual checkers question that I can't get a solid answer for:
Do you have to jump a piece whenever there is the ability to do so?
>>
>>98879456
I like some of the aspect warriors but I do believe that deldar and corsairs are just more interesting to me than craftworlders. Nothing in CWE lore really jumps out at me all that much, at least not in a good way. Still thinking about starting them as a second army, maybe just a small 500 point project.
>>
>>98879469
Official rule is you must make jumps whenever one is available. Checkers basically never end in draws and cannot have an opponent refuse to move a back row when played like this.
>>
>>98879469
You can't get a solid answer because there isn't one. Jumping can be optional or mandatory, and can be forwards-only or any direction depending on the niche micro-variant ruleset you're playing. Ask your opponent or the TO before the situation arises.

I agree with the Primaris haters that it's weird that GW felt the need to make the Space Marine range refresh a whole lore thing instead of just releasing new models like they do with every other faction, but unless you're reading a book like, say, "Shroud of Night" where the story repeatedly grinds to a halt to glaze Better Call Cawl's heretical defacement of the Emperor's designs or playing a list where the distinction matters vis-à-vis who can get into which vehicles, it barely matters and is just a range refresh with aesthetic decisions that you weren't comfortable with a decade ago.

I'm lost, the anon you're referring to puts a lot of effort into sourcing firstborn shit for his army, a verified hobbyGOD and you think he's a retard? And then you say "just paint what you want" but apparently that doesn't apply in his case where he is just making and painting what sparks joy for him?

This is what I'm referring to. He *is* just painting what he wants, so what do you expect him to do niggerman?

>>98879927
But they have tactics more advanced than "run straight toward the biggest git on the other team", which puts them right in line with our protagonist. Anybody who wants an ork isekai isn't seriously considering NOT actively pursuing opportunities for a bit of the ol' ultraviolence.
>>
>>98879942
>which puts them right in line with our protagonist
Ntab it doesn't? Orks are orks anon, BA may be a little unconventional but they still act orkish. Having to learn and show orky behaviour is something a human who has been implanted in the brain of an ork would need to do.
>>
>>98879952
Granted, the only Ork POV book I've read is "Da Big Dakka" but, psychologically, they seem fairly straightforward. The main thing they care about is the fighting; you can steer them away from immediate violence with the promise of delayed gratification if they trust you, which is based on your track record of getting them into good scraps and how physically large you are. You could probably groom them into something like a proper army if your "taktiks" and "strategee" consistently resulted in them having more opportunities to fight and more entertaining opps to fight against.
>>
>>98879185
If you’re going to do a fully metallic army like Necrons, I’d honestly wait till the new pro acryl metallics come out next year, they’re water-based aluminum ones like Vallejo Metal Color, but more viscous and workable, and honestly way more reflective.

Gorillaman sends the new mascot of the franchise Titus with some friends to reclaim planets but ends up fighting Necrons and a schizo Archmagos is jerking it to a C'tan shard that fucks up everything. It ends with Titus blowing up a tomb-complex and Necrons taking the shard and leaving. Then you get some crumbs of Lion sending a message to Gorillaman for Primarchfags that remember he exist.

IW kick the Black Legion out of the Eye of Terror so Perty can build his cool new citadel. Cadians, Mechanicus, and IH tried to stop them but it's obviously a set up for Peterturbo to come back so they couldn't. Imperial Fist lead by Lysander and a BT crusade show up, fight the IW, Lysander sees this shitshow and he sends a message to the Phalanx to activate the Last Wall Protocol. That's it for now.

Could someone explain to me why painting marine armor with NMM-like highlights is so common? The armor is painted, so depending on the surface finish you assume the armor to have, lighting should either be very diffuse and flat, or with sharp, bright highlights like a car. But instead the armor is often painted to look like a colored metal. I don't get it.
>>
>>98879942
>Anybody who wants an ork isekai isn't seriously considering NOT actively pursuing opportunities for a bit of the ol' ultraviolence.
Just because (you) would want to isekai into da ork lyfe doesn't mean the protagonist would. Seeing a normie forced to act like a cockney psychopath would be half the fun.
>>98879969
>you can steer them away from immediate violence with the promise of delayed gratification if they trust you

Orks don't trust. You have to beat them into submission. And most orks are just not going to want to fight like that regardless.
>You could probably groom them into something like a proper army if your "taktiks" and "strategee" consistently resulted in them having more opportunities to fight
Until you attract the attention of a bigger ork with a bigger WAAAAGH that decides to put a stop to your mucking about and show that the simple, goff ways is best.

And again, this isn't saying you're wrong per se, just that the path forward for this guy would be fraught with danger and violence and potential backstabbing no matter what.

Dunno, I don’t like it personally, I think a rough stippling on ceramite looks better.
But GW’s been inconsistent on what its finish is supposed to look like, some chapters are totally matte, some are glossy, some are downright reflective. You even see this variety among founding legions.
If you’re talking about the Calgar that won the golden demon, yeah that sucked, Ultramarines are always depicted with more matte finish on their armor.

They absolutely can make better warriors, as they've nailed raveners, lictors, and primes so far.

Not sure about the carnifex, I'll be honest, an update that feels good for it requires a kind of modularity and amount of bits that gw simply doesn't do anymore.
Best course of action would be releasing an alpha-carnifex kit and keep the old kit as the simpler footsoldiers of a nidzilla list instead.
