You can kick their ass in rogue trader and enslave their fake god
I don't need an origins episode for the nids. I do think they are technically the most boring faction sans the gene stealers because they don't really have a voice. That's fine, but I think it would be cool if they had more intelligence and evolutionary ability to communicate like they did in the early lore with the zoats.
That's always going to be a risk when using simple, geometric shapes. It's not even the first time that Ork glyphs have run into that problem - just look at the symbol for "orky".
I would be fine with the named Tyranids like Deathleaper, Old One Eye or the Swarmlord showing more "personality" but I think the second you have nids or the hivemind start directly talking you ruin the mystery around them.
To each their own, I guess. I find Space Marines to be the most boring faction for being tired, overrepresented and endlessly fellated by the fanbase. That being said, I find most human factions across all of fantasy to be the most boring, though I do like the Imp Guard and the Empire for their own aspects.
I'm not very enthused by a new AoS. Yay, we get to play The End Times. Again. Ratmen are cool and all, but they act like Skaven on a larger scale is something to really be fussed about. It's not. At least they'll get some updated models though...
“Here’s your dwarfs faggots, Hope you hate beards, manliness and love NASA-inspired vehicles.”
Could 3D print legs for raptors if that is an option for you. Seen a bunch way back. But yeah, I genuinely had hoped for a new set of raptors, but I suppose finally having rules for a leader for them is good enough.
Yes, Stormboyz have always been very blatant about their inspiration (it's in the name) and there was some inspiration in that direction even in units where the models weren't plastered with ϟs.I’ve got a lot of early ork models and there’s definitely some “problematic” (their word not mine, I love them) models. I’ve def got a Nazi and a Japanese suicide dive bomber ork
One of the Blood Gorgon books had a fight with the Tau brought up by one of the BG's. He and his squad had been sneaking through an irrigation channel on a Tau agri-world, got caught waist deep, and were forced to retreat. They gave a good account but there were just too fucking many Tau with too many pulse rifles and its a bit hard to charge up and out of a fake river when you're getting nailed from all directions.
To be fair, if any of the Tau would have Khorne come for them its Farsight. Dude's lived long enough and killed enough he's probably managed to make an impression. The only other guys would be Kais and Shadowsun but they get popped into cryo whenever the Ethereals don't need them to kill shit on account of the very limited life spans the Tau have. Between the tiny life spans of the Tau and their limited Warp presence very few would get noticed for any reason.
Look up the model / unit you want to paint on YouTube and go from there.
Not sure if MWG still has them up, but used to have a show that was either called The Art of Painting or The Way of Painting done by someone that used to be in their group at the beginning. Helped me when I got into the game.
This, and makes armies revolve around beating 3+ saves or nothing.
Not to mention the warhammer pygmies.I’ve got a lot of early ork models and there’s definitely some “problematic” (their word not mine, I love them) models. I’ve def got a Nazi and a Japanese suicide dive bomber ork
Actually, yes!
Booze works for me.
