The Warhammer 40.000/Fantasy Discussion Thread Mk.II

[Chedastan]

Good thing I have these dice laying around.

Regiment Classification: Imperial Guard
Recruitment criteria: Lottery
Nature of Recruitment: Renew! Renew! Recycling
Home world: Hive World.
Home world predominant terrain: Desert
Regiment core units: Drop. In the literal sense I suspect, without anything.
Specialization: Stealth warfare
Loyalty rating: Unorthodox. They care more about being renewed, I guess.
Special equipment: Preferred fighting style. RENEW!
Regiment creed: For the home world. Most definitely.
Regiment friends: Navis Nobilite (Navigators)
Regiment enemies: Daemons, Chaos, Nurgle?

I can see a world that's just 1970s post-apocalypse movies.

[The Empire of Pretantia]

Biological experiments. I suspect a charming Iron Warrior warsmith is involved.

1d10 for warband status.

Haha.

7.

What are you imagining fluff wise ? Anything ?

I'm imagining burning them all.

7 is slightly overstrength.

Roll 1d10 for cause of increased strength.

[Prusslandia]

The warband is favored by a Chaos lord that allows it to draw upon his forces.

Allies and enemies! 2d100!

[Neema]

I'd like to make a regiment or warband.

[The Empire of Pretantia]

I'd like to make a regiment or warband.

Ask me tomorrow. It's midnight, I just lost two games of Cards Against Humanity by one point each, and I'm almost done with this warband. Just go back a couple pages and you'll find a link.

At long last, the rumors on the WFB 9th Edition starter box are starting to arrive. Get on in here!


First of all, multiple folks around the world have been reporting hushed hints from GW retail staff to “Come into the store on April 24th for SOMETHiNG BIG”.

The exact verbiage varies, but that date of April 24th was always consistant.

Then this showed up!

Warhammer 9th Starter Set Contents

What I heard from the guy I know that works at GW is that what was happening in may was something they'd never done before.

Perhaps. He works in the book printing department at Warhammer World in Nottingham and so it seems that there is going to be a book release.

Moving an army from WHFB into 40k? After all IIRC

the Lizardmen floated away into space during the end times

[Ardavia]

Just killed Idranel in DoW2.

;-;

Also, out of curiosity.

Best quotes you've seen in 40k, official material or fan-produced?

Faith.

I don't know when you gave it up, lost child. Were you never loved when you were young? Did a woman spurn you, or did the system beat you down? What hardships drove you, controlled you, until you came before me today?

It's hard to keep faith when I see children like you, broken and despoiled, then tossed aside when their purpose is finished. Oh yes, my boy, you're hardly the first ringleader I've seen down here, and you might yet not be the last. You’re full of fire and fury, just like all the ones before, but you and I both know that it’s a hollow feeling. There’s a faith-sized hole in your heart, and no amount of Warp-spawn will fill it.

You don’t have faith in the Imperium. You don’t have faith in your fellow man. You can’t even believe in love, or hope, or joy and despair that doesn’t come from an alien abomination. You can’t see the ocean of corruption, yet you’re drowning in it. You’re lost in the wilderness, little child, and only you and the Emperor can know how deep you’ve sunk.

Other lost children have asked me why I stay. Minister of a sad little church, shepard of a tiny flock, drowning in the greed and corruption from above - I’m just one man. I stand here fighting a battle already lost, with the hive in flames, the Governor and his cronies dead, and the black ships standing watch above. Perhaps there is no point to this mad universe; mayhaps it truly is a galaxy spinning adrift from rhyme or reason.

Yet the Emperor, for all his power, was just one man. Horus the Betrayer, Saint Sebastian Thor, and even humble Ollanius Pius were all just men. You are one man, as am I. Each of us may be saints or sinners, as we make of the lives given us.

I look at you, strong in Warp-borne mutations and diseases, and all I can see is weakness. You were so frail that when hardship bore down on you, and when this harsh reality sunk its claws in, you bargained your immortal soul away for relief from a little pain. Your physical strength cannot hide your spiritual weakness: where better men stood fast and died proudly, you sold out your Emperor and your fellow man for your worthless life.

So come fight me, lost children. We’ve all made our choices, and now those choices have made us. I shall bring you into His light with cleansing flame and prayers, and redeem us all in death. Come one or come all, you shall not put a foot into this hallowed ground while I still draw breath.

For I have faith, and that is enough.

[Morrdh]

My Imperial Guard army is still in the "lack of funds to finish" limbo, which means time spent working on the fluff.

Main idea is a tunnel/mountain fighter army (homeworld's basically a Dwarf's paradise of mines and mountains) using the Death Korps Siege list. Thinking of calling the army the Darkwatch, the regiment's homeworld is also a bastion world which lies close to the Ghoul Stars and has been attacked by the Cythor Fiends in the past.

Other idea was an IG force led by a Rogue Trader, not sure how to do it.

The Lord Commissar from Retribution was always great to listen to, in particular:

"We are the Dukes of our Destinies! Bestowed victory by our Emperor!

"Be like General Tarsus of Yore! Bulletproof and free of fear!"

That always inspires me to attack the enemy with all i have, most of the time all my men die but its still worth it.

Also near everything general Sturn says in Winter Assault.

[Partially Blind People]

Thinking about ordering some of the next skitarii, the stormtroopers box, maybe some cadians, and possibly also some spare parts from places like maxmini to create some heresy era Imperial Army.

I understand the feeling, I can run a semi-competent 1,500 point Guard list at this moment but i really have alot of things that i need to add before i can really accomplish anything. My folk's are an Urban Warfare unit with an Air Mobile asset. Army list is Codex IG allied with Elysian Drop Troops.
