Truly a rare misstep for the finest model company in the world. I say we lend our support through this dark time by Buying More

Ah, so those are the underslung red-dot sights I have been hearing about so much. I'm amazed at how poo poo GW is at making uniform bolt pistols, it seems they are hardly ever the same in the same range. They nail plasma pistols, but bolt pistols and, less noticeably, laspistols are just impossible. People on Specialist Thread said this thread is cool and good, so here's a link to a thing I wrote: http://www.wargamer.com/articles/light-in-an-age-of-darkness-the-rule-changes-horus-heresy-should-embrace/ To prove my 30K chops, here's a picture of a recent purchase: I'm an idiot who bought Prospero before it was even released, sold everything save for MKIIIs, purchased the Calth commanders, a DG dread, chest pieces, missile launchers and chest pieces, assembled and painted everything by July, and then pre-ordered the Age of Darkness books to get the reference sheets (I laminated them). You may notice the lack of "played the game" in that paragraph. That's because, to my knowledge, I have the only assembled and painted 30K army in my city if not the entire Lithuania. I have one friend who has basically the entire Custodes infantry range as well as Dreads and the Palas Anti-Grav Cutie-Pie. Not assembled, tho. My current wishlist is to have one of each infantry unit that loyalist DG could have and dreads (but not the weird looking Daredeo). I just want to play 1k pts Zone Mortalis/Tactical Strike :/

Zone Mortalis is a fantastic way to play small games that really moves fast and amplifies legion differences. A bunch of us met up at LVO to play it. Death Guard can be really deadly in boarding actions. A lack of opponents has hurt a lot of 30k players since 30k vs 40k stopped being a thing.

It's a great time to get into 30k now that they keep changing what's going to be in the next book and the latest wave of models (barring Dorn) look like complete poo poo. Pull up a chair around the feasting table and fill your flagon, young cub.

HH sculptors tend to be on average more toxic that specialist games in my experience, that kinda "Look at us, we're a special club" mentality.

On a semi serious point, I tried making a 1000pts Solar Auxilia list for Mortalis without climbing over 300 euro. The best strat so far was giving the commander basically all of the upgrades, bumping him tp 250ish pts and allowing a Turbo Veletaris elite choice. I ended up with fewer models than in my 1k DG. In conclusion, no Solar Auxilia for me.

I think it’s an open discussion topic. I for one like javelins because they’re 75 points apiece and virtually guaranteed to get at least 100 points of kills each, and often bag 2-300 point models. I’m excited to try out quad mortars and a Malcador Infernus though, I suspect they’ll be my new favorites after a couple games.

I hate the Mhara Gal. Can walk through walls, forces invulns to be rerolled, and is only vulnerable to Stasis Grenades, which are used by the worst legion.

Yeah, I hope they really tone down Dark Angels when they get their real rules. Frankly, losing D3 victory points isn't nearly enough to counteract how good swords are.
