moths posted:but it's unsustainable entirely through expensive hardcover physical products Why do you believe this? It has never been true for Games Workshop, and people into collecting and playing with luxury goods tend to be much less price adverse. I would personally love for them to go all digital, but I also only buy physical books for the two armies I play. I would just print off and elaminate the two pages of PA I need.

Endman posted:I mean, you chose to run a stupidly complex army with loads of different factions in it that needed seventy books. Nobody forced you to do this. Yeah, when I play I nearly always just play my army from one codex. I think the ability to have allies as an option is a neat bonus in 8th, but it shouldn't be the first thing someone does when getting into the hobby. Once you have a few armies and want to mash them up do the other thing maybe add a patrol of Custodes to a IG army you start to need more than one book. New players don't just jump into a deep competition style loyal 32 without being told to do so.

JBP posted:The Eldar know they're not major players any more. They hover at the edges trying to manipulate/assist the imperium into scoring a win where it suits them, conversely they'll jam an ork shaped wedge into the imperium if the tea leaves indicate these humans are loving something up. Just lol if you won't consign an entire planet of humans to death to save one Eldar life

I am personally looking forward to being continually sad about no new plastic Eldar for another whole edition. Please give me a troops unit where both legs are the same part! Necrons look super good, so I am sure there will be lots of great stuff for lots of people though. Howling Banshees are my least favorite, but I still am glad they got put there.

Honestly, Power Level is probably fine for Narrative stuff. I have always used points, because why wouldn't you, but sure whatever. It isn't like you can't just use points anyway. I.. I think I am excited about 40k again.

xtothez posted:The 30k pace also seems to have slowed down a bit compared to a few years ago. I wonder if they sent a bunch of FW staff over to specialist games and didn't replace them. Yes, this exactly what happened. After Alan Bligh died it started falling apart, though they are getting back on track lately.

I think the real thing to think about is how much would you load up on anti infantry blast weapons in an all comers list? Something that is super good against Orks and Tyranids but not against most other armies isn't going to be a wild distuption for anything. If you are loading up to tailor against a specific opponent you are playing a narrative game at that point anyway.

The Bee posted:They're also implying Morale's gonna be a bigger deal in the new edition. I'm curious what they could do to make it more punishing, because it's already harsh enough on paper that horde factions need to flat-out invent ways of ignoring it. They always lie and say this edition morale is going to matter, and it mostly never does.

Harvey Mantaco posted:You could always just do what I do and treat your airbrush like trash and order a new one every year from the badger sale. Sure it takes 6 months to deliver, but by the time you get it it's time to replace the last one you trashed. It's like a subscription service for people that can't maintain their things! My badger messed up and discovered you can send it back to them was service for like 20 bucks or something. They fixed it perfectly with no trouble. The only awkward part was having to ask my Mom to write a physical check to mail them. I am in my late 30s and have never used a check from my personal account once.

I don't want to spend money I don't need to spend but I also don't want to wait like 6 months to save $10 or something. Get the Patriot 105 on Amazon as soon as possible. Not worth the wait to buy during the annual sale, when shipping times then are measured in months

The only other 40k book I read was Fall of Damnos which was Ultramarines vs necrons and while it wasn’t amazing it was a decent enough read, though the author really needed to find a word to use other than “implacable”. Sorry your faction got assigned n literally the worst Black Library writer by far! Like, don't even consider reading Nick Kyme book as a fun joke.
