[QUOTE=wraithcat;30355989]You have gotten the memo? Avatars are the new scrapbuddy of the galaxy. Whenever you want to show how a character is awesome you have them kill one.
That said, there's a common joke that if the theory that after each death of a shard, each of the remaining shards get more powerful, is true, one day you will get a rampaging Avatar screaming CAAAAAAAALGAR and hoping to go kill the marine.[/QUOTE]
I find it funny that Calgar killed an avatar with one punch and got his shit stomped by the Swarmlord.
Swarmlord > everyone.
just like in the vidya gaems
Swarmlord OP, man
Painting Tau white, skull basecoat or chaos basecoat?
[QUOTE=Jund;30356117]Swarmlord OP, man[/QUOTE]
Fact.
Though if it were fluff accurate it would literally be invincible.

If it's some sort of paint that's only available by special mail order using out-of-print coupons only available in Hawaii, then fuck that I'd rather just stick to GW stuff. I don't have the time to be faffing around ordering and waiting for shit only available in like Spain or the US, then paying stupid amounts for shipping resulting in a price greater than GW's.
Play Necron. Scarabs only.

[QUOTE=DTkach;30355986]Haven't played Ret in a while: Are the avatar and GUO still shit?[/QUOTE]
Well both of them are amazing if you use them properly, but i guess they're still shit when used by average players.
[QUOTE=Hoboharry;30364471]Well both of them are amazing if you use them properly, but i guess they're still shit when used by average players.[/QUOTE]
GUO and Avatar can die to base turrets. Or, they did in the ret beta.
Which I find extremely dumb.

That was the beta.
They're unstoppable now.
Unless you have a few Tzeentch squads.
Just saw a comment on a yt vid:
"Blood for the blood god! No milk for the Khorne Flakes!"
Just thought u guys might find that funny. I did...
Khorne Flakes are an essential part of heretical breakfast.

god man tone the fuck down
it's fucking tiny soldier painting not formula 1
[editline]10th June 2011[/editline]
I feel the sugary goodness overtaking me. . . It is a good part of this complete breakfast.
Khorne flakes is old.
I hear it like every ten minutes on Retribution chat, it's not even funny any more.
and by old
we mean
like
decades
It still makes me smile.
Now, this is the story all about how
My bionics got flipped-turned upside down
And I'd like to take a minute
Just stand at attention
I'll tell you how I became the Chapter Master of thy Blood Ravens
Sub-sector Aurelia born and raised
On the underhive was where I spent most of my days
Chillin' out worshippin' prayin' all cool
And all shootin some cave rats outside of school
When a couple of rat-men
Who were up to no good
Startin making trouble in my hive spire
I got in one little fight and my mom got scared
She said 'You're movin' with da Chaplain to the Blood Ravens'
I begged and pleaded with her day after day
But she wrote my scroll and sent me off
She gave me a kiss and gave me a seal.
I put my carapace on and said, 'I might as well kick it'.
Thunderhawk V, yo this is bad
Injecting geneseed out of a narcthecium.
Is this what the Marines living like?
Hmmmmm this might be alright.
But wait, I hear the secrecy, sorcery, mystery, all that
Is this the type of place that they should send thine initiate?
I don't think so
I'll see when I get there
I hope they're prepared for thy Chapter Master
Well uh, the thunderhawk landed and when I came out
There was a dude who looked like a scout standing there with my name out
I ain't trying to get rejected yet.
I just got here!
He sprang with the quickness, like lightening disappeared
I whistled for a Sergeant and when he came near
The purity seal said finest and had ink on thy cloth
If anything I can say is that this guy was bald
But I thought 'Man forget it' - 'Yo home to the Blood Ravens'
I walked up to the apothecarium about seven or eight
And I yelled to the Sergeant 'Yo homes command ya later'
I looked to the Chapter
I was finally there
To sit on my throne as the Chapter Master
:v: Don't ask how free I am
Ha a cool game of Fantasy last night, Teamed up with Vampire counts against Wood Elves and Bretonnia. We we're playing breakpoint so loosing everything besides my Chosen wasn't a problem. The game ended up in our victory after the Vampire lord killed the Bretonnian lord.

GW Skull white is...AWFUL, seriously, either get White Primer from Halfords or Plastikote Super Matt white from somewhere like Wilkinsons, though with those you do have to be careful cause they are slightly thicker than GW Sprays. Or get The Army Painter White from somewhere like Wayland Games, or Direct order, their sprays are so damn fine and smooth.
How do I counter Chaos as IG

Multi-laser turrets and heavy weapon teams. Suppress their assault infantry and tie up anything that can't be suppressed with Ogryns.
And Manticores.

problem solved
Cultists cost less than Guardsmen squads and can kill them in melee
They also blow up in my face
I gave up when a Bloodcrusher went inside my base and killed my entire army consisting of 2 Guardsmen squads, a HW Team, a Manticore and my commander and lived
He used that PLAYGUUUUUUUU shit on me and all my infantry instantly died
move your infantry away from the cloud and get lascannons and meltas bro
