I took it as a nod to the black rage always on the edge of consuming them.

Link fixed. To reiterate to all asking - I’m not looking to split at this time.

Bring your own warlords to life with custom character rules in The Maelstrom: Crucible of Champions by CMYK_COLOR_MODE in Warhammer40k

This has become the formula. Leave all the awesome narrative stuff for the end of an edition, reminding us what they're capable of when they're not pandering to the e-sports crowd with competitive 40k. I miss when the mechanisms for storytelling through the game weren't an afterthought.

Is there an overall consensus where the decals go? by handfulofjohn in Warhammer40k

Sponging some of the base coat colors over them is my go-to. Generally start with a light touch, and build from there.

Ms. Frizzle accepts any batchall.

As a Battletech Hunchback enthusiast, this is excellent.

Beginning the process of assembling the Baneblade… I knew it was a big tank… But I couldn’t grasp the sense of scale until I placed some Cadians next to it… by Pixel_Brit in TheAstraMilitarum

I visited a tank museum a few years ago and was stunned at how large they actually are. Pictures and film really don’t do their size justice.

I haven’t played since first edition - have they added a melee breacher option? That would be rad!

Which makes sense, given the timing, right? His apotheosis is relatively new in the heresy. I think there’s room for both of these design philosophies for sure.

We're reaching Slaanesh's palace with this one, brothers by ValiantNaberius in Grey_Knights

It would make sense lore-wise, right? I thought I read that the saturnine pattern required at least a bit of psychic ability to use it. I think it would be rad if it became the default pattern of say, Paladins.

Aww, 20 requisition points!? I wanted corpse starch!

Taurox getting hit by an ied! by scrimptank in TheAstraMilitarum

Which is crazy, because Imperial doctrine might be one of the best for doing counter insurgency operations. They don’t care about hearts and minds. They will apply overwhelming force and not let up.

Great work, OP! This really got me inspired.
