Gederas Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 Considering how extensive the new stuff for Death Guard has been there's not much you could safely buy and expect to be still there if EC get their own Codex, so I'd actually still wait a bit longer and see where things are going. If you really can't wait to start something you can maybe go with a small warband you like which you could ally in with your future EC later on. I for example was thinking about starting some Flawless Host to keep me busy, though now the new Slaanesh Daemon stuff has my attention once I'm done with painting my remaining Primaris I guess lol Well. Raptors and Warp Talons are probably a safe bet for them :lol: Only basing this off of the fact that a Warp Talon is shown in the Emperor's Children section of the Chaos Marines codex. That being said: The Daemon Prince/Herald? I like that one a lot BECAUSE it doesn't read immediately as a Daemon Prince, aside from the sheer size.

Slave to Darkness Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 Am I the only person who thinks the new Daemons are a load of crap? Not a fan of the KoS snd the spell effects look cheesy as hell. Hopefully a better paint sceme by some of you guys may swing it for me, but at the moment the lack of a Bull/Goat head just lost GW a sale.

Panzer Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 Lost one, gained two somewhere else. Ultimately makes no difference for GW as the general reaction is very positive. ^^ Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/294572-excessive-perfection-an-emperors-children-community/page/45/#findComment-5286699 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forté Posted March 29, 2019 Author Share Posted March 29, 2019 Any advice on how to get a blush pale pink from GW paints? Mix white into pink. Will desaturate it and make it pale and more pastel looking.

Kierdale Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 I used to do my pastel pink with Fulgrim Pink but, as it’s an Edge Paint, it took a lot of layers. I know you said Citadel paints, but, I now airbrush Vallejo Squid Pink and wouldn’t go back.

RolandTHTG Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 Those look nice and crisp! I actually had the idea last night to make the anniversary noise marine into an EC dark apostle, just need to figure out a couple groupie disciples to follow him around.

I'm hoping to achieve a blush pink, kinda like the pinkish marine with a powerfist in the WarCom renegades article, but with a dash more pink to it. Maybe a flesh color mixed with a little of another pink?

I was about to buy some and paint them as Flawless Host, but then GW dropped the new Slaanesh Daemons so I have something else to keep me busy for a while. :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/294572-excessive-perfection-an-emperors-children-community/page/45/#findComment-5288594 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slave to Darkness Posted April 1, 2019 Share Posted April 1, 2019 Waiting for actual EC minis to drop, GW charge too much for stuff now and I have plenty of CSM's to be going on with atm. At least I can save coin for the release and pre order everything. :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/294572-excessive-perfection-an-emperors-children-community/page/45/#findComment-5288599 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sawtooth Posted April 8, 2019 Share Posted April 8, 2019 All hail the Dark Prince! Getting back into Emperor's Children after this big release, I wanted to go back to my roots. How are Noise Marines doing this edition? Fluff requires that I take them with all sonic weapons in multiples of six. Do you like MSU or larger squads in 8th? How do people like Lucius, he seems a big improvement on the basic Chaos Lord for only a slight point increase.I'm also way behind on the Horus Heresy books. Are there any you recommend that strongly feature the Emperor's Children beyond Fulgrim?Also kind of a strange question that I'm not sure the books answer. When the Great Crusade discovered Fulgrim and there were only about 200 marines in his Legion, did they recruit exclusively from Chemos afterwards or continue to draw from Terra until the numbers grew to acceptable levels? Are any Terran EC known to have made it through the Heresy?

Panzer Posted April 8, 2019 Share Posted April 8, 2019 They are one of the more decent infantry units Marines have access to, ranging between Bolter and Stormbolter with their Sonic Blasters. Even better for us since they are our Troop option. Larger squads only make sense if you want to stack buffs on them, so unless you plan to use VotLW, Prescience and/or Endless Cacophony on a unit of Noise Marines you are better off with a small unit.

DreamIsCollapsing Posted April 8, 2019 Share Posted April 8, 2019 The tragedy with Noise marine is I'm not sure sonic weapon are worth it now with the Bolter Discipline. There are still great, but with bolter and Doom Siren (better stat, troop slot and capacity to shoot when dead). I'll wait the EC codex to make some noise.

Panzer Posted April 8, 2019 Share Posted April 8, 2019 Imo they are still worth it. Stationary regular Bolter come close to efficiency but they are your Troops and you want to move them on objectives to score and there the Sonic Blasters are clearly better. Also it's always great to ignore cover, especially when there are units like the Primaris Eliminators who get +2 on their save when in cover. However I agree with the waiting. Just look at Rubric Marines and Deathguard. They look vastly different than what you ever could have done with the new Chaos Marine box and the upgrade kits.

Slasher956 Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 A little rumour (take with large dosages of salt as I dont know the source of this rumour*.. !) is this... "Fulgrim,New Noise Marines, Noise Marines “Terminators” (a large infantry kit) Fabius Bile, Lucius the Eternal, Old previous rumors reported a Noise Marine cavalry unit – akin to Seekers with Marine riders. All of this is said to come late this year" *the person whos said it has mentioned a few Chaos rumours of the last 18 months that have turned out right so I thought I'd pass it on, how ever he doesnt work for GW or even in the table top industry so I have no idea where he picks this up from.

Slave to Darkness Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 Well they are all kits that we most probably get anyway, especially the HQ minis and Sonics. Thousand Sons and Deathguard got their own terminators so its not exactly a stretch to see some Emperors Children terminators, the marines riding steeds would be good as I have wanted to build another squad of those since I ripped my old ones apart for bits, having an actual kit would make my life a lot easier.
