    Termagants. Has anyone ever tried putting these guys in area terrain, or on a slope? They don't even stand up on flat ground most of the time. And they have slotta-bases so you can't put big, fat...

    Generally speaking, the 5th edition rules are efficient and effective. I would tweak around a few things for 6th edition.

    I appears to me that, particularly with the Codex: CSM and Codex: Daemons, a lack of self-restraint is a significant problem. People go running around making game-effective combinations "because the...
