Presenting Brother Jom of the Kiwis Obscurum.
View attachment 7268060View attachment 7268062
Born on the Agri-World Faceta Bos Villam IV, the Chapter's recruiting world, he passed the recruitment trials, culminating in voxbooking an Agent of the Inquisition and was so permitted to join, after which he slowly worked his way up through the ranks through cunning and indomitable stubbornness.

A fairly quick and dirty job for now, on the first Marine I've ever painted. I stayed fairly close to your Impcat mockup, just to try out the scheme; I think it worked out decently enough that it might be worth expanding to the rest of a Kill Team at some

This is awesome man, Angels of Death are pretty good right now - so could always do a dirty KF version of that.
 
Now we'll we're definitely loyalists Alpha Legion but the alpha legion's always been loyal to the emperor so we're just doing the normal thing if anybody asks though we are sons of Ferrus Manus

Already got you covered. It even has the successor chapters.

You know what, fuck bringing Dorn back. From a hobby view they did fuck all with the Lion, Fulgrim, Angron and Magnus. At best they're centrepieces for half-assed codices without even a full range each. At least Mortarion got a decent range to counter Guilliman who got primaris range released alongside him.

For decades primarchs were meant to be almost mythical and now they're honestly just expensive centrepieces for shit ranges. On the lore side I don't know what the fuck Lion has done since he returned? Or any of them aside from Guilliman and Mortarion tbh.

We lost Yarrick, Lord Solar Macharius and Captain Tycho for this shit. Fuck off Magnus you dork, I want Yarrick back even if they did try to make him a homo.

And then the chaplain that ordered it eventually got killed, and the black templars got their primaris reinforcements(happened in one of the dawn of fire books).

Modern GW in a nutshell ain’t it?

Those books, from the covers alone seem to be everything wrong with modern 40k.

I think that’s what I hate the most about primaris. There was a ton of tension between First Born and Primaris possibly leading to a civil war. And then GW just decided everyone was Primaris and shelved First Born entirely. Whole thing could’ve been justified as a range refresh.

Imperium civil war would be the obvious narrative choice, considering 90% of tabletop games are Space Marines vs any other Imperial army.

Some day they'll make a game focused entirely on just that. 90% space marines fighting against eachother with some mechanicum and guard thrown in to fill in the gaps.
 
The Trygon/7.0 update for Space Marine II released recently.

Between the prestige system adding MORE cosmetics behind MORE grinding, and there being some unsightly bugs that you'd think would have been caught in the PTS phase, I think I'm done with the game until the Horde mode comes out, and done with the franchise overall. It's just the last straw after A) Kill Team turning out to not be as cheap to get into as I thought, and B) the current main 40k rules limiting customization/loadouts for Tau battlesuits, as they were my favorite non-Imperium faction because of their sweet mechs.

Oh yeah, and the community getting more fractured and retarded. Like Arch being a grifting shitbag and the Emprah-TTS gang becoming a bunch of awkward maybe-leftist dorks on their TTRPG channel.

40k just doesn't do anything for me anymore, and that's a real shame.

The games a massive waste of potential, and from the leaks I've seen Horde mode won't be much different.

Tell me about it. Initially I was actually kinda glad it decided to K.I.S.S. and not stray too far from the original, but at this point it just feels...Slow and thanklessly grindy, even deliberately so. And believe me, I am plenty capable of being autistically obsessed with grinding for cosmetics. But this? I quit.

Also, can yooooou possibly elaborate about these leaks?

it also locks the prestige perks behind the prestige ranks, which would help with the max difficulty to get through the grind quicker but... you need the talents unlocked to actually play the max difficulty and not just instantly fail. It was a move purely designed to drive up "player engagement" while they drag their ass about releasing some new content every 3-4 months.

Funnily enough it actually allows spamming even more battlesuits in game because they're each their own datasheet now. Not accounting for points, 27 battlesuits from the units, 6 more battlesuits between the commanders in coldstar and enforcer suits, plus farsight is 34. Forgot shadowsun, so 35.

Arch has always been a grifting shitbag with his retarded fake accent, and the TTS people have been leftists for ages(as well as liars among other things).

If we're counting everything that isn't strictly a Crisis suit you also forgot about Ghostkeels, Riptides, Broadsides, and stealth suits. I've said my piece about the split in crisis suits before, but I actually don't mind it that much. I see what they were going for. Nobody is running crisis suits with a different gun in each slot. You want to specialize, especially since split firing is more heavily punished than other armies. Each datasheet can have its own ability to cater better to your intended role. However it really is an unnecessary change. Support systems let you customize what bonus you wanted anyways, and now they're locked to a datasheet. Yeah we got some new ones on top of it, but they could have just expanded the list and let us pick. Maybe they felt like shield generators were too much of an auto pick, and people would take all weapon support systems to bully their Raven Guard friend. The only benefit of the new way is to make list building slightly easier for new players, and to limit OP combos.
