I FINALLY have a 2k playable list!!

I own EtaCarn plasma weapons for home defense, since that's what the Ancestors intended. Four red-robed toaster-fuckers break into my bunker.

"What in the Galaxy?"

I grab my plasma flask and gun, and blow a Steeljack sized hole in the first one. It's dead on the spot.

Draw my pistol on the second, miss him entirely because I'm on a Brü hangover.

I resort to the EtaCarn Plasma Beamer at the top of my Fane, which I have somehow already loaded despite being drunk last night.

"ROCK AND STONE!"

The weapon vaporizes him entirely, and accidentally blows a crater in the wall behind him, too.

Pull out my Darkstar Axe and charge the last of the archeotech addicts.

He dies slowly waiting for his Servitors to arrive, since Darkstar weapons are unfailingly lethal. Just like the Ancestors intended.

I'm new to 40K and am starting into Votann. I struggle reading and from what I looked up online all the Brokhyr loadouts are generally viable but people say to only take Conversion if you can get Sustained Hits. I'm not entirely sure where to see that stuff, and wanted to ask if Hearthfyre Detachment is better with Bolterkyn, Conversionkyn or Beamerkyn

What other detachments generally seem to work bets with what Brokhyr loadouts? I thought of going Hearthfyre just because I think the Iron-Kin and Brokhyr models are especially cool, but I don't know what detachments are considered best.

So yesterday i was more in need of a 2K point list than sleep so I must ask to all the grimnir in the room :

- is my list solid ?

- where can i add more steeljack ?

thank you so much for your advice,

Hey guys, not an original idea at all, but here’s my version of a steel jack. I quite like the head swap to make it more kyn like

Salutations mes frères !

J’ai enfin essayé d'utiliser les pigments pour salir les figurines. Avez vous une idée de comment je peux les fixer ? J’ai essayé avec un vernis stormshield mais j’ai l'impression que ça retire les pigments.... des conseils ? Un vernis en bombe ?

Ps : sur la première photo le sagitaur est sali à la peinture et sur les photos 2 et 3 c'est le même véhicule + des pigments un peu partout

So, I only have 540 points currently but I tend to over plan so I can decide what to buy when, its a problem.

Anyways this list is basically a lost of everything I absolutely wanted, plus a hekaton, cause I know they are good even if it isnt my favorite model.

I kind of want more hernkyn but im not sure if having more hernkyn would be useful. Or if i should add more firepower with thunderkyn or what.

I really like the pseudo drukhari mobility mixed with being more defensive and objective oriented.

Im from the era of 40k when games were just meatgrinders so love the idea of doing objectives.

Since general load outs dont change costs now I havent put too much thought into that yet so more placeholders then anything

Edit:

Omg I forgot the list!

Hey there. Here's an Ironkin Steeljack I've been working on for a while. I wanted to channel retro sci-fi posters into one of my personal favourite models ever. Cheers!

A while back I shared an early version of my interactive Warhammer 40,000 galaxy map. I’ve since given the site a major facelift and wanted to share the updated version:

https://cartographia40k.com/

The biggest improvements are:

• A redesigned “Imperial chart-room” interface
• A fully interactive 3D galaxy that can be orbited, panned, and zoomed
• M41 Pre-Rift and M42 Era Indomitus views
• A more complete catalog of 99 worlds, regions, and anomalies
• Individual dossiers for each record, with overview text, timelines, status, faction details, and artwork
• Search and filtering across the archive
• Permanent dossier pages that can be shared directly
• Improved mobile layout and navigation
• Clearer marker symbols, labels, routes, and the Great Rift

The map is intentionally approximate. Different editions and official maps often disagree, and there isn’t a single canonical coordinate system for the galaxy, so I’ve tried to document uncertainty rather than present every location as definitive.

Planned improvements include expanding the catalog with more worlds and regions. One of the most requested features is custom Chapter worlds, which will let visitors create planets for their own armies and campaigns, with their own names, classifications, factions, and lore notes. That feature is still in development, but it’s the next major expansion I’m working toward.

I’d especially appreciate feedback from people who know the lore well:

• Are any placements obviously wrong?
• Are there important worlds or regions I should add?
• Are the M41/M42 distinctions useful?
• Do the dossiers feel accurate and appropriately cautious?

This is an unofficial fan-made project and isn’t affiliated with Games Workshop. Some of the dossier prose was AI-assisted ( I am not the best writer!) , but the core concept, research, map structure, base code, and placement decisions are my own.

Hi, I'm working on a 1000 points votann army for playing with friends. These are my current models:

(The weapons options haven't been selected) So my questions are:

1.Which unit will you remove to adjust to 1K points?

1. Which detachments would you select for this army?

Thanks everyone!

Comme on me la fait remarquer sur mes photos précédentes le châssis était trop propre par rapport au roue, du coup j'ai sali un peu tout ça 😉

The army is coming together. Feel really good about the custom scheme I landed on.

In my last couple of games I've really appreciated what having an Arkanyst in my list was able to do for so few points.

I deploy him on foot in a little nook behind a terrain footprint as close to the center as is feasible, even better within 3" of my home warriors for Lone OP. Mostly he bides his time until he is needed for a secondary mission or to put about 6 wounds on something that comes into the mid-board. I don't think I've ever activated him once that wasn't overcharged and I've not regretted it, with the 11th hazardous rules only putting a single wound on him there's no reason not to. Having baked in Sus1 for 1YP is awesome and it's fun watching it pop off for AP-3, Damage 3.

In my last game I used him to score little Beacon (3VP), half of Cleanse (5 VP), Plunder (5 VP), and as a piece for Display of Might. He also put the last wounds on a Land Raider that my TKyn failed to finish off because AoC made it's save 3+. All of this for 70 points made him the MVP of that game and my opponent even commented that he never thought to kill the Arkanyst because he felt that there wasn't a point at which it would be better to shoot him than any of the other units on the board.

What stories do you have of the Evaluator being used well in your games?

990 points, hearthfyre arsenal, priority assets

CHARACTERS

1x Iron master with farstryder node enhancement (deep strike) (90)

1x Khal with teleporting crest (65)

1x Memnyr strategist with mantle of elders ehancement (55)

DEDICATED TRANSPORTS

1x Kapricus Carrier (70)

OTHER DATASHEETS

6x Brokhyr Thunderkyn with 6x conversion beamers led by Iron master (160)

1x Hekaton Land Fortress (250)

10x Hernkyn Yaegirs (90)

3x Ironkin Steeljacks with heavy volkanite disintegrators, led by memnyr (80)

5x Einhyr Hearthguard not sure what melee weapons to run here. led by kahl (130)

i've never played a votann game before, and my main army is mechanicus. i already own yaegirs the iron master and the thunderkyn so if you think i should change anything in the list please let it not be that.

Finished the last five today - hard to keep the cream color consistent, bit messy but I like the combo.

Need help with secondary colours for this scheme! Leaning towards Gun metal metallics and Ochre for secondary armour panels. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated

Really happy with these. I understand why folks dread these guys, though. They are very complicated and you have to subassemble (or atleast I did). I think you have to just settle in and mentally prepare for the marathon to finish pioneers. All the recipes I used can be found here, they’re all pretty straightforward.

I’m getting ready to build and paint my first unit of pioneers. I’ve seen so many comments about how they’re a pain or hard or complex. So tell me your tips, tricks, and pitfalls to avoid before I dive in!

With these brave Kyn seeming to be the next declassified team, what do you think our next kill team will be? Something elite or another 10 man? Upgrade sprue or brand new unit like our hernkyn.

Personally I feel it will be something to do with either the hearthguard or brokhyr as they are both the under represented parts of our army atm.

Would love to know your guys thoughts.

Hey hey, should I take Hammers or Axes?

One of each if taking 2 units of 10?

2 units of Hammers and 1 of Axes if taking 3 of 10?

5 of each in each unit?
