Stanyer89 posted:Koreban, I heard you had a moderately successful list a few months (possibly a year) ago using jump infantry versus Eldar and Wave Snakes. It was a 2v1 against Eldar/CSM and I had vanguard vets backed up by sternguard in a drop pod. Sternguard landed and immobilized the maulerfiend, which allowed me to use the vets to crip step through hixson's rear lines while scouts in a LSS with heavy flamers cooked out dire avengers. Tacticals held objectives and a TL las/las predator made any vehicle thinking about turning to face the sternguard or vets to shoot at them think twice about it. Chapter master smashfucker ran up the middle and it was high fives all around the Xenos wrecks. Maulerfiend was still sitting there like a ripe turd who could only watch and smell like a turd. Might have been a different game but I used ASMs to clear a bastion battlements and take over the gun, wrecking a hellchicken too. koreban fucked around with this message at 21:33 on Feb 27, 2015 |

Lord Twisted posted:You're asking this thread? My god man. What have I done? Rules Question Time: The Shadowfield was recently ruled in a GW FAQ that FNP does not prevent the loss of the Shadowfield if a wound is otherwise taken (before FNP). So, interestingly, Fuegan has similar if not the exact same wording in his entry, he also has FNP. Does that mean that he can take a wound, deflect with FNP and still gain +1 Attack and +1 Strength? Consistent ruling would say yes.... Boon fucked around with this message at 23:25 on Feb 27, 2015 |

One time I went out with a girl who was like "Wait, this is weird. You're an animator who plays warhammer? I was JUST going out with an animator who plays warhammer" and I thought "that's hilarious, I bet it was a goon" and then I checked facebook and it turns out it actually was SRM. In general, though, I don't really mention it much. Occasionally you'll get the "oh cool, let me watch you put it together" response but for the most part girls go kinda glossy-eyed and distant when warhammer comes up. I think it mostly comes down to how much they secretly still want to play with dolls. Which, thinking more about it, is pretty much true for boys too.

I never had anyone say anything about my Warhammer 40k, most nerdy guys are into it or know about it or some sort and thnk it's really cool. Also a "tutorial" is a good conversation piece. Anyway this is what Rick Priestly said recently.. Rick Priestly while not saying not nice things didn't exactly say good things about GW recently from his Facebook , also the guy worked there 28 years so he probably does know a bit what he's talking about and well he's Rick Priestly. This started the discussion quote:You sir are a legend! Its a shame that gw have lost their way a bit and moved away from the humorous, dark, irrelevant and very British state of Warhammer and 40k that you pretty much invented This is what he said quote:
He probably knows what the hell he's talking about, this idea though that GW would just basically update everything and then just get the hell out of the games, market leaving the rules etc.. to another company is pretty insane.

so I have some chaos marines and notably some of those sweet, sweet chaos terminators. I also have a bunch of orks. Can I field them together now? Is that how 40k goes these days? Sorry for these nub questions. I just want to play space mans at my local shop.

But is there a new ally system or something? Thought I saw a chart somewhere that listed which factions could be allies to others. Also is white dwarf tourny-legal? Not that I plan on entering any anytime soon but I'd like to know if the looted wagon entry is going to be legal in most games before I convert mine.

Do a search for '7th Edition allies matrix' and you'll be able to find it. You can have a Chaos detachment and an Ork detachment but you'll need HQs for both, troop tax, etc etc. Stuff in WD is tourney legal in pretty much every tourney I know of and you usually need a copy of the rules on you when you go. You'll want to inquire with any specific tourneys you're planning on attending.

Awesome, thank you. Time to add a bunch of orky bits to this tank. When I used to play, dropping ordnance was my favorite thing but I don't really like the sanitary feel of guard vehicles. Also why did they change the name of the imperial guard that's just silly.

If you hide your hobbies you're doing it wrong. Most women I bring home are curious about the dumb space dollies, most use the term "figurines" because their experience with tiny dumb things is Hummel cabinet stuffers. Two or three women actually sat down to paint minis, I think I still have the mutants that some girl painted with turquoise skin and metallic silver hair (yes, I know how to pick 'em).Gapey Joe Stalin posted:Heads up, GW have changed their policy on returns/replacements. I've just been told that I need to find a proof of purchase to send a tactical squad with a miscast back for replacement. This is reasonable enough, and standard consumer policy in the UK. However, as GW's previous policy was an exchange without proof, I've never bothered to rush to open and check for faults, or keep hold of receipts for toy men. I guess we have to do that now. Do... do they think someone else made those Space Marines or that you walked out of the shop with it stuffed in your pants? Post 9-11 User fucked around with this message at 02:19 on Feb 28, 2015 |

Bonesword/lash whip and some toxin sacs are a good option since you will strike at I8 and get to reroll your wounds against most everything in the game.
