Anyone here play Warhammer 40k? (self.gaming)

If so, what faction do you play and are you excited for 10th edition?

I'm still new to Warhammer and have only started playing a few months ago when I heard a new edition was coming out and that the base rules will be free.

I started with Custodies and my wife went with the Drukarki.

I'm a long time collector and painter of Blood Angels. Never touched the game but I'm dying to get some of the new Terminator models! ! Here's one of my favorite things I've done. I love a good kitbash

I can’t wait to start painting, reason why I picked Custodies because they look a bit easier to paint. I’m hoping to start in the next couple of weeks. I still have a few bikes to put together first. Do you assemble your models first before painting or before you assemble?

[–] SevenSwell 3 points 2 years ago

I always put em together first. I like putting them together almost as much as I love painting them (except shaving off mould lines, BLEGH). You'd think it's easier to get the details before it's all assembled but I've found it's much less fiddly to have a whole model to hold on to. That's not to mention if you're thinking about lighting and whatnot.

Haven't played in over a decade, but I ran Space Wolves back in the day

Haven't played in some time either, but I still play older editions with a friend once every blue moon. I mostly run Space Wolves too.

I still have the old metal VenDred. Although it shames me, it sadly has fallen into disrepair over time.

Played it once several years ago with borrowed Guard regiment. Liked it but never had the resources to make my own army. Now, I'm afraid that I'll spend tons of money on figurines and paint and the effect will be far from imagination ^^ Now I'm satisfying my wh40k itch with the game Darktide. Keeps me involved in the universum. Btw, how does your wife's printer army looks like?;)

I mispronounce their name so much, it’s fitting I misspell it too. My wife always gets on me for it.

I've made (from scratch and through 3D printing) and painted a bunch of the models, but I've only actually played like 3 games with my brother.

I've got a 2000pts Imperium army with Guard, Space Marines and a Knight. I've also painted up some Tau and Mechanicus.

Not really interested in 10th Edition since I don't really play the game.

I’ve been wanting to get a 3d printer to do some custom models and terrain. I also DM for DnD so I’ve been wanting to print the whole monster manual.
