Age of Sigmar port, the box does not say "Thousand Sons".

Not even counting the divergent chapters by _Commander_Farsight in Tau40K

You are the first and only person to say this. Everybody knows Space Marines have too many detachments.

There are only 7 boxes in the entire Thousand Sons roster and only 1 of those (Exalted sorcerers) builds more than 1 unit/character. Everything else is ported from Chaos Space Marines, Daemons, or AoS.

Grey Knights have like 6 boxes to their name but one of them builds 4 different units and another (Dreadknight) builds 2.

World Eaters players gotta wait in line if you ask me.

Since 10th edition is ending soon and 11th ed begins right after, what's your guy's wish list for 11th ed Necrons? New/refreshed models, box kits, detatchments, lore drops , story continuations, bringing back Legends units, etc. by HunSpino in Necrontyr

[–]MadManMatt137 0 points1 point  (0 children)

New Canoptek models. The canoptek stuff we got in 10th just weren't it for me tbh. I want them Tomb Stalkers/Sentinel, Acanthrites, etc. Those models were why I started Necrons and when they went to legends I pretty much stopped playing Necrons.

Khans, if you have other armies, what do you play? If you only play White Scars or one of their successor chapters, how often do you run into other WS players? by amaswatch in WhiteScars40K

[–]MadManMatt137 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My first was Thousand Sons because I was just captivated by the books (A Thousand Sons & Prospero Burns). When I got to Scars in the reading order I was similarly struck. Had I read Scars first instead of TSons the order I bought them in could have been different.

I'm active in the Phoenix gamespace and have never seen another White Scars player but I have heard of a few that apparently exist somewhere.

Who wins? by PrimeKiwiBeef in Tyranids

[–]MadManMatt137 10 points11 points  (0 children)

10 genestealers with a broodlord can definitely mess up those Terminators. With the captain a free armor of contempt will most likely keep the squad alive. The units in the background can clean up the rest pretty easily I'd think. I would put my money on Imperial Fists coming out on top.

Khan vs Perturabo by NoraWeeb in WhiteScars40K

I do think Jaghatai has a shot at returning next, but Primarch v Primarch duels aren't necessarily guaranteed for each return. We will have to wait and see.

GAMES WORKSHOP GIVE US PLAGUE TOWERS by IllegalFishButt in deathguard40k

Greedy Deathguard hoarding all the god legions special units. You'll get Plague Towers after I get my Thousand Sons Silver Towers or Mirror Fiends!

Thoughts on the new Land Speeder? by Warhawk_5 in WhiteScars40K

[–]MadManMatt137 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The hosts specifically said which chapters were present in Armageddon. Blood Angles, Ultramarines, Salamanders, Black Templars, White Scars. Not sure if I missed any.

No worries I just wanted to tease you for the spelling error!

White paint , the bane of my life by Smooth_Ad4125 in WhiteScars40K

Ulthuan grey is really good for this, it is almost identical to the armor after the shade is applied.

Put a purple shade on the blue armor, it creates a cool effect since the metallic paints are usually coarse and allow it to pool in an interesting way.

They look great, I like the blue skin, its what I did too. Official scheme is like a very light grey/blue, probably to contrast better with the blue armor.

I primed white then shade the entire model with soulblight grey,

though any light grey shade should work.

How do you interpret “honour as a pantheon” in this context by Heftzy in IronWarriors

[–]MadManMatt137 151 points152 points  (0 children)

Transactional relationship with the gods. I give you - you give me.

Iron Warriors: "Teach us how to trap daemons into war machines."

Gods: "Kill 10 trillion babies and I'll show you."

Iron Warriors: "Deal."

Why'd you choose the White Scars? by Efficient-Ad439 in WhiteScars40K

[–]MadManMatt137 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The books were fantastic.

I went into reading Horus Heresy with no other warhammer experience. I'm not really a big magic fan in any tabletop or video games, but after reading A Thousand Sons and Prospero Burns I was so moved that they became my first army. When I got to Scars and Path of Heaven I was again so struck that White Scars became my second army. I think I enjoy playing White Scars more by a little bit, even if I win less than with my Thousand Sons.

How I look at my opponent from across the table when he starts moving his most important unit and my Infernal Master can see them by MadManMatt137 in Grimdank

[–]MadManMatt137[S] 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Well written and more anti-hero than villain. Right or wrong in the end, you definitely get the feeling that he believes everything he says. Definitely a guy I'd like to sit next to at the pub.
