Warhammer 40k

  • 🔧 At about Midnight EST I am going to completely fuck up the site trying to fix something.
The updated Ynnari rules effectively gut the whole thing. Harlequins can still be selected only as detachments since they won't share the same model keyword.
You can also still take some DEldar, but not Lelith, or Drazhar, or hellions, scourges, mandrakes etc.
I suppose not knowing what to do with the Ynnari extends to the crunch, rather than squatting Yvraine they're just letting the army languish into oblivion.

Turns out they weren't done yet I guess?

Wonder if they’ll explain where all the forgotten characters were during the celebrations. Not camping names of course.

Three of these things were there for the party, one literally spawned in just to make an appearance and read books.

They need a seperate codex at this point. They should be able to access 2/3 of Drukhari and all Aeldari except a few leaders.

With that roster, you could craft rules, points and detachments that are balanced independent of the other two codexes. Give them a real identity. But that wont happen, because it depends on GW advancing the story.

As much as I love the Aeldari, easily my favorite xenos, GW seems pretty set on making the whole race more compact with cutting down the Ynnari and no Harlequin codex. At least the Harlequin's got two detachments this edition. Maybe they'll get some new models or at least a rerelease of the older ones, but I won't hold my breath.

I don't remember where I saw it, but for some hopium, someone suggested the new fulgrim book might see him wielding the final croneblade so that it's back in realspace and not permanently out of reach. One can dream for some non-Chaos-victory story advancement.

According to 4chan its from Horus and the Justaerin fucking them up so hard on Ullanor that it caused the entire ork meta-psyche to associate black with being the 'ardest of the ded 'ard.

I heard that speculation, but with the checkermarks in black and white being a Luna Wolves reference.

Slaanesh is displeased. The plasma cannon needs to be a dragon dildo.

ACKSHUALY it's a volkite combustor.
At
30"A9BS3+S12AP0D3
+ devastating wounds, this thing will probably ruin your day. Can't use them as Hazardous though, unlike plasma weapons.

My name's Guy and you're watching Midwinter Minis.

I've just been reminded of yet another thing that Guy from Midwinter Minis does, which really irritates me every time he does it. It's a stupid little thing, but it bothers me more than it should. He has a habit of ending his sentences with 'huh?', as if to elicit agreement in the viewer. "Not bad, huh? Looks pretty cool, huh?"

I don't know if that's something they do on Paedophile Island, where he was born, like a regional quirk or something, but it sounds completely fake and affected and unnatural spoken aloud by an obvious Britbonger. That's how Yankoids speak.

Been doing some work on my slaaneshi Chaos Knight secondary army. The armor plates are 3D printed.

I bet this'd be good to run with Emperor's Children in the future so you can potentially get double army mileage out of some of these. I've considered Chaos Knights myself to run alongside a Vashtorr army of Iron Warriors or if GW ever mans up and gives the people what they want (40k Dark Mechanicum).

Also, a question. I found a great condition, pre-assembled, pre-painted Knight Castellan on Ebay for $115. This seems like a good deal and I can slap an Inquisitorial bit or two for my purposes, but I want opinions on if it's better than buying a fresh Castellan.
