Now those are some good Night Lords rules!
Dig the article too, especially the line "Fair fights are for idiots with more honor than sense". Now these guys get the 8th Legion. Can we get them to talk to the 40k rules writers, please?

No. Your 10,000 years of experience in the Long War means you are slightly better with pistols after a battle's been going on for a while.

Sadly, no it doesn't. But they could still do the "outnumbering" thing. Or just write meaningful morale rules, y'know, like pinning.

Now if abbadon starts having chat's with horus soul time to pick up pitchforks

Oh gods yes. Also stop giving every army book a sub-faction that ignores attrition. Never counts at below half? Sure. Auto-passes it? No. Stop it. Bad.

As for mixing/matching armour, I'm planning on equipping my Breechers and Heavy support squads in MkIII and everything else in MkII, just for the sake of breaking up the 'sameness' of having just one type of armour, and is in theme for the Imperial Fists anyway.
Adding to this, I will also look at sourcing some bits from the Iron Hands selection, as some of their upgrades can do wonders for kitbashing some models or adding some flair to certain squads.

I've watched a few of the HH painting vids, and I don't recall Legion badges being used on any of them. Possibly they are waiting until a later date to release a vid on transfer application.
Transfers tend to suck badly when applied to a curved surface. Trying to get them properly aligned by cutting slightly into them didn´t work either. It´s just bad. Either you do a free hand painting (difficult and time consuming depending on the symbol) or you get specific shoulder pads with molded symbols.
The 2nd Night Lord transfers had upward folded wings which were easy to apply to shoulder pads. Next generation of NL transfer had wings which spread horizontally. Those were way more difficult to align. So I just proceeded to paint lightning bolts instead of placing transfers.

Micro Sol and Micro Set are your friends for transfers.

Sort of, but the CSM still on the ship constantly smash the statues which then reappear somewhere else on the ship.
I've always got the vibe that Sanguinus would be resurrected somehow in the long run.
Although that might just be a 35 year Vet of GW / Blood Angel lore reading too much into allegories.

It's not just Sanguinius that is a crystal statue, IIRC. Which may mean that's not how they would go about resurrecting him.
Especially since we have the Sanguinor ex machina.

I know these are biased jokes articles but this ones reads exactly like the BL Bangles.
There, fate would see the Angel Encarmine battle Ka’bandha once more – and this time he put in a cracking performance. We’ve yet to see how the Siege of Terra ends, but based on Sanguinius’ track record, it seems a pretty safe bet that he’ll emerge from this whole fiasco without a scratch.
A nail in the coffin of the Sang vs Angron fan theory, which is good. As per the precedent set by Mortarion and Jaghatai, Angron should smash Sang to bits.

Once again, there seems to be a disconnect in how GW themselves paints things and how they teach their customers to paint.
The colours used in the tutorial look way too red/pink compared to the Eavy Metal example in the the article
This topic of red shade is a pet peeve of mine. I am a big proponent of a more "desaturated orange"/vermillion over bright red for BA
PS - Am I the only one who finds the weak gun barrel drilling on the model a flocking eyesore?

Better than Space Wolves gun sights being on the bottom of the barrel , but yes. Photoshop could have fixed that easily.

I don't know what you're talking about. It's clear they're taking this super seriously. I mean just look:
