Tau, the only race dumb enough not to have any base defense. Except for when the AI plays them and has upgraded listening posts all over the place and NOT on strategic points.  Turrets doesn't count towards your pop caps so they have their use. Also minefields can be hilarious. You hear that you pathetic and weak xenos scum who are too frail and whiny to pick up a decent choppa?!? Stomp over the Northlands. Rip the flesh from the eldar bones and feed them to the

Iretep posted:I think their reasoning for no base defence is that they havent met an alien race so far that either doesent compleatly overwhelm them in fighting strength or are so weak that they will join the Tau if they just fire their guns a few times. It's so hard to respect a race that would lose a fistfight against a guardsman.

Onmi posted:Among Black Library, there are two books, specifically starring the Sisters, that are widely considered to be some the finest portrayals of SoBs in all of 40K fluff. Both were authored by James Swallow, who decided that Sisters needed some attention and got to work. The first, Faith and Fire, has the Sisters battling with what are basically terrorist psykers on a shrine world while trying to uncover the reasons behind the attacks. Then there's the sequel, Hammer and Anvil. Remember reading about Santuary 101 up there? This book has them going back there and trying to figure out what happened. While saying too much would be spoiling it, it can be said that poo poo hits the fan hard and that the final battle is very epic stuff. Also, if you're feeling extra faithful, Swallow wrote an SoB audiobook called Red and Black. A prequel to Faith and Fire, it has the Sisters being sent to a recently rediscovered planet as representatives of the Imperium, and ultimately to judge it. Needless to say, things get complicated. Also features a Scottish SoB. So, you can help the Sisters by getting the above books so that Games Workshop and Black Library may decide to change their minds and give some love to these girls. Or at least give them some additional badass portrayals. Now I just need to find them. My favorite store doesn't seem to carry them and importing to the EU can get pricy for whatever reasons. No loving ebooks!

The Imperial Guard isn't the normal defense force and planets usually have some form of militia or army, right? Can you field them in tabletop, or are they just too crappy for that, being even weaker?hard counter posted:grey knights getting gunned down en mass

Orks! It'll be more fitting to take out the weak and pathetic last.Arashiofordo3 posted:Orks, orks, orks, orks, orks...! I'm almost done reading Faith & Fire, it's been better than I expected but I didn't except too much from a Warhammer novel in the first place. A few weird and kinda less good moments too of course but overall it's been a fun read. Also I did learn that: -Repentia are batshit insane, even considering the setting. -Gun servitors are bloody useless against anything. -Witches and heretics must burn. -Repentia are really batshit insane. -Don't gently caress with nuns wielding guns.

You need to put forth at least 9000 points of Tau: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tdTWKIa98B8 Just had to share it because it's mildly insane. I can't help but wonder how much all that would cost and how many hours it took to paint. No Gregory unfortunately. Is he not a normal addition to a tabletop army? Here are two more of them, but with more impressive factions of course. Tyranids and Chaos respectively: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S-DRF8lzB-s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MsaLHgnSyBI

my dad posted:For insufficient dedication to the cause of kissing Ethereal rear end, he will be sentenced to playing the last mission of the Heroes of Might and Magic IV: The Gathering Storm expansion. It's not that hard to figure out you need all your heroes to be strong and to have survival skills. There are three very different parts to take I think only one has the evil sorceresses so it's not too bad. It's not a surprise that the last boss is going to be a powerful hero with a large army but you don't know the exact specifics so you need to pick up good skills and spells.
