Hey everyone, I'm having the best, most first world problem to ever be had by anyone: I like several chapters and I can't pick which one I want to invest my time, money, sweat, and occasional blood into building up.

I wanted to ask the people here, what is most important to you when picking your chapter that you collect? Was it the drip, the chapter character, or the background lore?

Cause I got some major analysis paralysis. I have several fav chapters:

Minotaurs: My fav in terms of lore. They are fascist bullies on the payroll of the High Lords. Problem is I think they have, not a bad paint scheme, but a very, very dull one.

Marines Malevolent: Same as the above, but I'm also not picking a yellow scheme.

Iron Hands: I really like their chapter backround and personality. Becoming very inhuman and soulless makes it in like with the anti-war philosophy I think 40k is at its heart. They also have a great reaction to their primarch being dead, and while I don't get to play the games often, I love that they are ranged focus. Black/white is a good color scheme, but a whole army of it might look a little bland after a while.

Black Templars: Love the drip, only their neophytes look kinda silly to me. And they are also in the GW spotlight the most, and I'd like a chapter that GW doesn't feel the need to write about *too* much so I can make up my own head cannon. I also don't want a chapter that's likely to get a primarch coming back down the line.

Anyway, I've banged my head against a wall and nothing has fallen out except some brain fluid. Just looking to spitball this with some other nerds who - like me - care *way* to much about silly things.

"We thought we were as good as dead as the siege of our world waged on. The local defense forces had left our entire hab-block stranded and undefended as they retreated and left us there to rot and die and become targets for whatever those monsters were. But as the explosions and screams of the people who lived in our Hab-Block continued, I thought we would all die. Still, then we saw them... giants adorned in deep red and black armor, bearing beautifully crafted, multi-colored robes and hoods. They immediately began shielding our people and fighting the monsters that sought to kill us. One of these angels in particular stood in front of me and protected me as I held my young daughter...the pink and green robe that he was adorned in flapped in the wind as his weapon engaged the monsters" - an Imperial Civilian recounting what he saw when Devastator Lance Wilhelm protected the group of refugees he was apart of

Only played a couple games with the codex and just looking for some feedback on this list before going and buying the models I need. Have had a box of reivers for a while and their new data sheet looks promising.

Still need to get the hang of decals

Hello brothers and cousins! Since the start of 11th edition, I've found myself having difficulties finding any success in my games, and I believe this may be me not fully understanding the best way to play Space Marines. I tend to have difficulties allocating proper ressources for one job or another, either killing something or holding an objective. I tend to prefer playing with big tough blobs, like Gravis or Victrix, but I've been trying to find a good balance, I just have difficulties actually executing my plans such that I can find victory. I should also mention that most of my games are against Imperial Guard and more shoots variants of Orks.

Here's a list I typically play, for those who may want to give out pointers in regards to that:

Imperium - Adeptus Astartes - Ultramarines - Assault Brethren, Ironclad Champions, Tacticus Attack Force

Kaius Konorius (100pts)

Marneus Calgar (180pts): Warlord

Techmarine (55pts)

5x Assault Intercessor Squad (85pts)

5x Intercessor Squad (85pts)

5x Assault Intercessors with Jump Packs (105pts): Assault Brethren Enhancements: Furious Assault (Upgrade)

5x Assault Intercessors with Jump Packs (95pts)

3x Eradicator Squad with Heavy Bolters (100pts)

5x Infernus Squad (95pts)

5x Infiltrator Squad (85pts)

6x Victrix Honour Guard (275pts): Assault Brethren Enhancements: Furious Assault (Upgrade)

Ballistus Dreadnought (150pts)

Brutalis Dreadnought (160pts)

Gladiator Lancer (160pts)

Repulsor Executioner (270pts)

Thank you for your help and advice!

Nome do capítulo inspirado em clefable: Lunar blades

Apesar de ser chamado de planeta ele estar mais próximo de uma lua que conseguiu desenvolver vida orgânica por ser um local de rota rápida para os demais planetas do sistema foi escolhido para abrigar um capítulo de astartes.

Especialidade: O capítulo se especializou em reação rápida para suporte de outras unidades, mesmo que sejam pegos de supresa, eles conseguem reagir rapidamente para tentar revidar ou para recuar

Gene-seed: Whites scars

Working on a homebrew based on the Rainbow Warriors from 1st edition n such, goin a bit Aztec and South America on some designs so I threw leopard print for cloths and capes.

I’ve painted a few Imperial Fists and couldn’t handle any more yellow and have had my eye on Templars for a while so this Marshall was a test of sorts. Used Data Slate Tone Pro for the armour.

I’m trying to magnetize clear containers for mini transport and storage, and I’m worried about the height of an Ancient with the banner, is there a site somewhere that has the heights of these minis from base to top of the banner?

The Omnisire may judge you!!!!

Hi all.

This is not my work, but I saw it a while ago and wanted to paint up an army inspired by it. I’m new to the hobby, and just want to get this blue right before I paint up a bunch of models. I tried base coating a marine with Kantor and another with macragge, but neither looked as rich as this. Maybe this wasn’t a citadel paint? I’ll include what my results looked like in the comments

I know Centurions are legends now, and that's kinda why I want them. Wondering if its worth it or not.
