Or a Hive Fleet eating enough Eldar to learn psychic precognizance, so it starts to avoid certain fights and attack in seemingly random places, which lead to later gains.

I'm sure there will be a Hive Fleet that GW makes up that will specifically be for combating the Eldar.
Expect similar Fleets specialized in combating the Orks, Tau, and the Necrons in the future.

Finished my warboss for real now, fully based and everything. Might've gone overboard with all the tactical rubble because the fucker's taller than a Killa Kan now.
 
Some more rumors regarding the CSM Codex:
Exalted champion:

Same loadout as the model (power axe, combi melta & pistol)
Is elite and is now a lieutenant (rerolls 1 to wound @6")
Cannot change loadout
Hits better, more wounds, more attacks

So, they are finally making the Aspiring Champion model:

The model for the Exalted Champion (about time). Should've been done in 7th edition.
The only drawback is the loss of the loadouts. Which is ass.
I was fixing to convert a Legion Champion (from Forge World) to be my Alpha Legion Exalted Champion.
These changes are crippling my Word Bearer and Alpha Legion forces, especially the loss of equipping jump packs to Chaos Lords & Sorcerers.
Then there's the loss of Greater Possessed (quit trying to kill my Word Bearer army, GW!).
Hopefully, when the Codex drops, some of this can be dispelled.
 
Since I’m an idiot and didn’t remember Death Guard don’t have Raptors in their codex I now look forward to kit bashing some rather dynamically posed possessed marines in the near future.

>Death Guard
>Raptors
lol
To be fair, I have a Raptor/Warp Talon kit that I plan on kitbashing with my Possessed in my Word Bearer army.
 
Valrak is live, apparently GW accidentally posted an article 4 days early.

Captain-General Trajann Valoris is being removed from the game's Matched Play system for balance alongside Vertus Praetors (Custodes Jetbikes) and Tau Battlesuits being capped at like 1 or 2 per army.

I’ve watched the tacticaltortoise video sand I think it’s totally fake. Either a well done photoshop job or an April fools article released to early.
 
So Arch made a new "lore" episode which is just bitching about the Emperor for 3/4 of an hour. And he talks about why there's no more HH videos.
TL;DW: He claims it was because he reached the conclusion that the new lore was worse for the 40K universe, so he lost the will to continue. There's also the claim that GW wants to remake that universe (ie, Emperor is the bad guy now) to go with social justice, which doesn't make sense (the Imperium were always morally gray) and is just the overused "everything is culture war". There's also the argument that he can't do anything big because GW will ban his videos, which would have had months ago if it was true.

Personally, I think it's just excuses and Arch wants to become a Sargon wannabe in his political channel and just dump the 40k channel alltogether. Problem is that his political channel is unwatchable and has 1/5 of his subscriber count, though at least it has a good ratio of subs vs. watches

Has arch covered any nu lore? I read up on some cawl and while the writers go out of their way to shill primaris tech as being amazing. The primaris tech to me is like Cawl didn’t really advance anything and instead made everything like a redneck would do to his car.

The repulsor tech is not true hover tech for instance he just made the land speeder shit bigger like a monster truck. I feel not a lot of people currently don’t actually read the nu lore and take what they see online as truth without reading it themselves.

He mentioned he read the Cawl novel and the entirety of HH, probably including Siege of Terra with the Erda revelation. But anytime he mentions nu lore it's the same claims of making it dumber and appealing to SocJus, while really it's adding unnecessary complexity or retcons BL writing themselves into a corner with the 13th black crusade.

Weird, I feel its the reverse Horus Heresy has done more damage to the lore as it now leaks into 40k, its gone on too long, and BL writers retcon stuff out their ass.
