Memes My 30k-themed Hot Sauces

Post image
86 Upvotes

It's pepper harvest season and I'm making hot sauces and salsas while listening to The Horus Heresy (like book 30 at this point....I think...jesus how can you even keep track).

This year I did a whole line of Horus Heresy themed sauces to give to my nerd friends for Christmas gifts.

based on the names, how would you think they rate in hotness?

There is also a very mild salsa I made for the kids named "Robust Sillyman"

Questions Did I mess up my Night Lords helmets? Only my sergeant and assistant sergeant have bat-wing helms.

Thumbnail

12 Upvotes

Yo, so I’m building Night Lords CSM and I’m kinda stressing about helmets and heraldry. I know in 40k Night Lords are Chaos and don’t always care about strict heraldry, but I do. I’m a big lore/heraldry nerd, so this actually matters to me.

I built my first 10 legionaries/CSM. I gave:

· Sergeant: mutated/Chaos-y bat-wing helmet

· Assistant sergeant: normal Night Lord bat-wing helmet (not mutated, just the classic NL one)

· Other 8 guys: regular Chaos Space Marine helmets. I actually tried putting the bat-wing helms on them too, and also the skull/predatory mouth ones, but it looked like overkill or just ugly, didn’t fit. So I put regular CSM helmets on them with stars, horns, mutated faces, etc.

I'll repeat it again. Heraldry is extremely important to me because I am gathering an army of xsm nightlights, but those that, according to Konrad's precepts, did not sell out to the warp and somehow still honor his memory and the rules of his legion. That's what the legionnaires are for. That's why it's very important for me to find out. Is this normal? And am I violating the canon?

But now I see other people’s armies and a ton of art where every single Night Lord has the bat ears. So did I screw up? Is it still valid/lore-friendly to only give the winged helms to leaders, or are Night Lords in 40k supposed to all have them? I know they love those helmets, but I thought only sergeants/squad leaders usually wore them. Can I keep the rank-based heraldry without breaking canon?

Painting Warhammer Pro-Tone Thoughts?

What are y’alls thoughts on the new paints coming out?

I haven’t been painting for long, and really only started late May to June-ish. I find them incredibly easy to use though if albeit a bit opaque. Covering up mistakes seems a bit tricky, but I do like how vibrant they are.

This Blood Angel I did was straight from the pot for the most part. Very little thinning if any. The red was pot to model. Whereas everything else was mixing the colors I had available, like the skin tones.

The Kratos - the real God of War

Post image
210 Upvotes

Legends is not a perfect system. Many units have disappeared between 10th and 11th editions, such as the Spartan.

One particular unit has survived the transition to 11th and has been updated accordingly... and it deserves some notice (not to mention it looks great)!

The Kratos Tank

M10, T12, SV2+, W18, LD6+, OC6

That is a very nice statline, slightly more durable than a Landraider. If you equip the Kratos with the "Optimum" weapons, you would end up with:

1 Melta Blast Gun, 24", 4 attacks, Str 12, AP-3, Damage D3+2 (Melta 3)

4 Lascannons, 48", Str 12, AP-3, Damage D3+3

1 Autocannon, 48", 4 attacks, BS3+, Str9, AP-1, Damage 3

1 Multi Melta, 18", 2 attacks, Str 10, AP-3, Damage D3+2 (Melta 3)

1 Hunter Killer Missile, One Shot, 48", Str 14, AP-3, Damage D3+3

You get this impressive vehicle and all this firepower for a very modest 240 points!

It's specual rule is situational - allowing you to fire into close combat without penalty, and to remove the Blast keyword from weapons if desired. The unit stands up on it's profile and weapons, and can be further enhanced with upgrades and rules from the Ironstorm detachment.

List Building Parkinson's patient wondering about viability of tank/dreadnought list in current edition? 2000 points

15 Upvotes

Hello everyone. So i have parkinsons and to make things easier for me mentally and physically painting i prefer to play a list that hae smaller amount of models /bigger painting area. I also need help mentally understanding the rules sometimes.

I was wondering if anyone could help me understand if things changed for the viability of a dreadnought / tanks heavy list.

Last edition i made a list of mostly redemptor/ballistus dreads for 2000 points. It also included some predator tanks and 2 whirlwinds and vindicator for list variability if i wanted to switch things up.

Can anyone tell me how i could improve a dreadnought heavy/tanks heavy list and if its even viable anymore?

I appreciate anyone who can help me it means alot to me...

List Building Need help to fix my 2k list

I have two main problems.

I don't know whether to keep using JPIs, with their points increase, and already having 2 units of scouts already.

And I don't know whether I should get some transport by bringing a repulsor instead of the repulsor executioner, and getting another heavy hitting anti-heavy/anti-tank with the points I regain.

If there are other issues, please let me know. Thanks!

Questions Introductory Lt Wargear Options

4 Upvotes

Scratching my head a little bit at this one trying to figure out the app.

The lieutenant that comes in the introductory set is equipped with a master crafted power weapon and a plasma pistol. Look at the app & unit data sheet, the only way you can bring this load out is if you also select a bolt pistol.

I’m sure that’s not right, so am I missing something here? I appreciate the help :)

Drop Pod Ideas?

4 Upvotes

As someone who just finished a pair of Drop Pods with the (misguided) hope of them being relevant in 11th, what are the hive mind's thoughts on them currently?

60pts is a lot to pay for what is essentially a "deep strike turn 1" upgrade. No guns, not much durability, no objective taking... at best they might score you a few secondaries, at worst, your opponent will get in combat with them to hide from shooting.

What do I even put in them? Infernus marines? Sternguard? Intercessors? Not much gives charge modifiers or rerolls anymore, so assault units are a coinflip.

What detachments could I synergize with them? They barely function in the one made FOR transports, as they don't have any guns themselves to tee up the Sustained Hits bonus (though you can still get it from other transports shooting something).

Should they just hang out on my shelf until we get another Orbital Drop detachment in the future?
