Warhammer 40k

So I only got 4 guns to fully raise in SM2: Fist, Sword, Auto Bolt, and Heavy Bolt. I found out why it takes so long to raise guns, they aren't affected by the XP boost your player level gets after the Prestige, so at Prestige 4, you get the same amount of weapon xp as when you first start.
 
Here is this abomination, primed and waiting to be painted

Is it worth making a separate thread for the recently announced Total War : Warhammer 40k game? The TWW3 thread only has 25 pages, so I'm thinking probably not.

Been bashing my head against the wall trying to finish an Immortal Empires campaign but I just get overwhelmed by turn 30-40. My best attempt was with Dechala, really fun character, but having the Lizardmen right at your doorstep from the start sucks fucking dick.
 
Here he is after i painted over the lighter areas with some reds and dry brushed him with more vibrant reds. I got a cheap airbrush and I really like the way he turned out

Stick a WE berzerker or Tyranid in the claws
Yeah that's what I'm probably gonna do, buy some tyranids, lay them around him on the ground and then have a head in one hand and tyranid in the other

I have this thought about a Space Marine 2 thread, just so I'm not fighting to urge to shit up this thread with my sperging. Speaking of

Yep, and it's fuckin shit. The only saving grace is that you can use armory data to immediately level up the other variations of the weapons, so at least you aren't having to grind literally every single weapon variation anymore like you did back in the first month or two.

Techmarine is looking to be a fucking failure of a class that they had no clue how to implement.

Seems all of kit is built around his dogshit sentry turret that either spawns in a spot where it doesn't even have a line on the enemy, or it spawns in after you've cleared the wave and don't need it. The fact it dies so quickly doesn't help. If it were an equipment piece you could carry around and deploy that was on a massive cooldown, sure maybe. As is, it's worthless.

His servo gun is just inconsistent. It's got too long of a cool down and it doesn't aim for the head, so anything other than plasma is wasted ammo. It's main use is letting you do gun strikes without doing the animation, but you still need to pull the trigger. I can't remember if there was a perk that made this automatic, but if not there needs to be. Along with a cool down reduction.

His weapon selection is kinda dumb. I don't think he should have any primary ranged weapons. Whatever big guns he has should be for the servo arms, while he carries a melee and sidearm. He also shouldn't have the combat knife and should have the thunder hammer instead because it actually works with some of his perks unlike the knife. Besides a knife on a Techmarine is fucking stupid when you've decided to build to class as a crowd controlling murder bot. The knife is the worst weapon for that.

They really should have done an Apothecary. Make it a Biologis so we get another Gravis unit, and he could have given damage buffs to the team against nids and the chaos spawn/beastmen, with maybe a few perks that promoted better armor or health regen, starting the mission with a couple stims, big bonus for reviving etc. But Saber thinks any sort of healing outside of Bladeguard and Vanguard would completely and irreversibly break the game the same way letting bots make use of team perks would, apparently.
 
In your guys opinion whats the best 40k Game out there to play today?

I've been changing between Battle Sector, Gladius and Battlefleet Gothic 2.
 
Is there a way to get the books in a real book, instead of getting them on ebook or audio book? I really would prefer paper. I've looked at black library, and I don't think I've seen a single one of them selling a physical copy.

Ill do BA eventually and my plan was a Devastation of Baal theme. Stick dead tyranids on bases everywhere, change tactical rocks to tyranid heads etc.

Some factions work better than others. Im doing it with EC and their enemy is IH but thats just techmarines and Heavy Intercessors with a pauldron swap so...less standout.

I love the progress youre making. Keep at it one box at a time (or Combat Patrol, 2 of those is good for a collection) and soon enough you'll have so much to use.
