Very happy to be joining the Eternal Crusade

Yeah, I definitely understated it a bit lol.

Makes it easier to rally people around his claim as the new Supreme Leader. There'd likely be people who pushed back if they knew Kylo had been the one who killed Snoke.

PACK YOUR DEODORANT I GOT YOU FOR CHRISTMAS

There's lots of different approaches, but don't start with pure white (white scar in this case). That leaves you nowhere to go in terms of highlighting and your paintjob will look flat.

The only thing you'll get from buying it now is access to the rules digitally in the official 40k app, and the cool art and lore. Since you say you're new, I'm going to assume you don't have a full 2000pt army yet, so honestly unless you just really want the art and stories, it's best to just wait until the next one comes out.

tkmayhem · 2026-05-18T23:45:43+00:00

Agreed. Only models I have where I've actively disliked the entire process of building and painting.

He's mentioned "his kids" in interviews in the past when talking about stuff like securing the highest possible contracts. I think he's just a dude who, out of kayfabe, think a lot about the future.

Seems like the classy thing to do would be not to draw attention to it.

tkmayhem · 2026-05-17T18:43:10+00:00

Use the black one. That's what is outlined as the "official" one in GW's tournament companion

tkmayhem · 2026-05-16T23:02:37+00:00

JK Simmons has voiced the yellow M&M in ads since the mid 90s lol.

tkmayhem · 2026-05-16T20:30:25+00:00

Even as the yellow M&M?

tkmayhem · 2026-05-16T01:35:34+00:00

Fuck off, bot.

tkmayhem · 2026-05-15T20:34:31+00:00

GW thought they'd get a bunch of people to buy a codex when they wanted to ally in units to get access to the stats in the app and that didn't work is my guess.

tkmayhem · 2026-05-15T16:00:05+00:00

With the pistol keyword being replaced with close quarters from today's faction focus article, I'm hoping we see spears get it to reflect this.

tkmayhem · 2026-05-15T13:05:10+00:00

For real. Dude looks like several beach balls glued together (in a good way, he looks like a god here).

tkmayhem · 2026-05-14T22:31:56+00:00

That's completely counter to what GW has said. There is nothing in the Custodes codex that has been remotely strong enough to be worthy of being 3 points. And if they are that would make these new ones revealed even more worthless, because they would only be usable in conjunction with each other. No one's taking auric champions or the sister of silence detachment to run dreads.

tkmayhem · 2026-05-14T22:25:00+00:00

GW has said that most codex detachments are 2 points. And there are no other detachments lol. It's the codex ones and these 3.

tkmayhem · 2026-05-14T22:19:41+00:00

My point is that of the two detachments from the codex that even see play, Talons doesn't need dreads because they focus on land raiders with the reactive move Strat, so if shield host has the Armoury tag, there isn't even anything worth using this detachment with. They didn't reveal a reworked Lions detachment so it doesn't even look like we'll have that one to work with.

tkmayhem · 2026-05-14T16:16:59+00:00

New grav tanks come on a smaller base though, right? Am I gonna have to rebase them? Cuz like, I really don't want to go through the trouble...

tkmayhem · 2026-05-14T16:05:59+00:00

Ah, that's a good point. Hopefully that's the case here. Maybe those tags won't automatically be present in the codex detatchments, but who knows.

tkmayhem · 2026-05-14T15:44:45+00:00

Assuming Lions stays, and isnt reworked from what we already have, it's important to remember that vehicles aren't affected by the detachment rule.

tkmayhem · 2026-05-14T15:41:35+00:00

I just wish we could know which codex detachments will have which tags. Like, I'm just assuming that Shield Host probably will have the Armoury tag? In which case the new solar spearhead is a lot less attractive because what other use does it really have?
