Warhammer 40k: Megathread V1 - FOR THE EMPEROR - Games

I get that when i handle tiny things with my fingertips trying to keep them still, my hand just spazzes out.

The ONLY way to play Space Marines in Dawn of War: Full squad cap + heavy weapon increase + force commander + army of scouts (10 squads with flamers + 10 with plasma guns) = CARNAGE [img]http://www.1337upload.net/files/BURRRRNHERETICS.png[/img] [B]BURN, HERETICS.[/B] I didn't even notice they had a Crisis suit because the mass of screaming recruits curbstomped it so fast.

[QUOTE=kenji;32487560]I get that when i handle tiny things with my fingertips trying to keep them still, my hand just spazzes out.[/QUOTE] Same. Would some sort of vice be useful for the the tasks that require greater finnesse than my hands would allow? In fact, it's mostly just my frail and unusually long fingers getting tired, I can steady my hand until that happens.

So a Friend I know from school used to play Warhammer 40k Table top. He noted the fact that I love Warhammer lore and am interested in playing the Tabletop. So being the badass he is he brought in his old books. Heres what he gave me: Deathwatch Comicbook Eldar Codex Codex Blood Angels Codex Witch Hunters Codex Chaos Space Marines Codex Imperialis The 13th Black Crusade Book Am I lucky as hell to have such an awesome friend?

[QUOTE=Zezibesh;32486794]Gonna replay through DoW II, last time I rolled melee FC, Tarkus, Hbolter Avitus, ranged Thule. This time I want to mix it up a bit though, anyone got suggestions? Was thinking of hooking Vanilla Ice up with a plasma cannon or something, and maybe ditching Tarkus altogether and replace him with Cyrus. I love using Thaddeus but he's made of glass and in the end isn't very effective. I still need a melee option to tie down enemy troops however, how good is melee Thule?

Also, the Contemptor looks awesome, if anything, the long spaces between the legs because of those magnets is a bit lame, plus the model leans a bit more to the right rather than being balanced.

Though, which army are you planning on starting with, seeing as you've just gotten codexes for three 40k armies?

Im thinking of starting with something like Death Guard or Sons of Malice. Though, because I have three codexes I guess I could do any :dance:

Quartering is quite hard to paint.

Full Melee/Health Thad Full Melee/Health FC Full melee/Health Tarkus Full Ranged/Power Cyrus Full range/Health Avitus Keeping the top three and switch Cyrus with snipe and Avitus with The Neverending Hail of X as appropriate will absolutely destroy, on Primarch. Tarkus cannot be killed, Thaddeus will regain health and up his damage and power for every successful kill, and FC will regain health with every HIT, Cyrus will gain power and speed for every kill, and Avitus will kill ANY enemy under 20% health including Guardians and Alphas. Suffer not the Heretic, nor Xeno. Purge them with Righteous Fury.

[QUOTE=nightlord;32490805]Where is that from?[/QUOTE] The Space Marine facebook group it's apparently Gamescom 2011 or something.

Well I'm finished with my first model after 3 years, my painting has improved alot. Shall post pics later.

Should we tell 'em?

Still no news on Exterminatus mode?

[QUOTE=Teh Zip File;32496219][media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hp6E_aP7NKY[/media][/QUOTE] That was it, yeah. That looks quite uncomfortable. Must be the EPIC PAULDRONS.

If that thing was bigger (from what I see) it would look even more authentic. As in, lore wise.

Poor marine cant even hold his bolter properly :(

[QUOTE=Boba_Fett;32495920]Still no news on Exterminatus mode?[/QUOTE] Sadly, no. I'm excited for when it releases, let's hope the trailer of it won't mislead us.

I got this OnLive. Pretty cool.

Can someone explain the whole blood ravens and relics joke?

[QUOTE=tsdfghh;32497563]Can someone explain the whole blood ravens and relics joke?[/QUOTE] [url]http://1d4chan.org/wiki/Blood_Ravens#Blood_Magpies[/url] This will explain it, perhaps.
