Mentally and emotionally, I'm starting down a similar path as Col Corbane. I never forsee a time in my future where I don't have collections of Epic and 40k armies and terrain. But that's where it...

I think the only thing that could simultaneously stop the division between "hobbyists" and "tournament players," as well as reintroduce some of the fluffy aspects, is to split 40k into two different...

Just from an initial skim of your rules, it looks like you have some overpowered/undercosted units. Example: your dreadnought is WS 5 but only 110 points. WS 5 is part of the Venerable points cost...

This list is incomplete without Doghouse's excellent Cosmic Space Knights (Of Doom):

You'll have to skim through the posts to see...

I wouldn't mind seeing a BoLS 'dex for the Dark Angels. But to be honest, I think our best hope for a new Dark Angel army list lies with Forgeworld. I thought of several reasons why this may be...

I wouldn't hold your breath. If anything, I think this "gag" model is a gigantic middle finger extended to everyone who asks Studio members if the Squats will return.

You're going to have difficulty getting this kind of discussion going... I don't think there's many members of this forum that would prefer seeing an all-new codex until all 3rd and 4th edition...

With the thickness of the new tiles, printing extra will be difficult (but not impossible). And the printing is VERY glossy - high-quality photo paper is the only way you'd even get close.

There are some interesting bits in the Space Marine Vehicles compared to versions 1.0 and 1.1. The Land Raider Prometheus has been completely reworked, and the transport capacities in the Land...

I like Sabol foam, but the cases are a little flimsy. For my Deathwing, I use Sabol trays in this bag since they fit perfectly:
...

The Dark Angels Indomitable Fortress also looks like a preview kit. Its wall sections look fairly manufactured - I'd expect to see something with those parts in the next year.

Favorite to play: Hordes. I like being able to take numerous casualties and yet not lose any effectiveness in my army.

Favorite to paint: Elite. I'd rather spend time lavishly painting fifteen...

My question - how big are the tiles? As soon as I saw the non-standard bases, my first thought was that these boards wouldn't be usable for modern 40mm Terminators. Is this the case?

I'm going to favor the underdog and go with Deathwing Squads. Their strong points are ability to mix SB/PF with the various close combat loadouts, being able to Deathwing Assault them scatterless as...

Space Marines - bikes. They may be costly, but they have style and are still effective.
Orks - Deffcoptas, for the same reasons. But one unit of Stormboys usually finds its way into my larger...

Gotta go with the Whirlwind, but not for its killing power. While it can cause opponents problems if it's ignored, its real strength lies in its ability to make your opponent panic and focus all...

Agreed that you'll have more success breaking your collection up and selling in lots. You'll probably be pleasantly surprised at how much money you get for some items, such as the Epic 40,000...

Awesome, thanks.

Shall we start asking questions in this thread, or should we create a separate Badab FAQ post?

Either way, I'll get it started. I have an Executioners terminator squad (powerfists). How does...

The Rogue Trader Space Marines were horribly underscaled on the one end, and there have been plenty of models (Eldar especially) creeping on the other side. If you have access at your store or...

Hm. So much for the "never been done before" part of the rumor.

This would basically mean that we knew all about its release even before the "mystery box" format became public knowledge. It...

DISCLAIMER: I came to the hobby during the release of Epic 40,000 in 1997. That box set and its rules were my first exposure to Epic (and to GW in general). So my bias is VERY strong in that...

As I've said in a few of the blog comment threads, I can think of nothing that would be more useful to 40k. Chaos has such a wide influence over elements of mankind, yet all we can see (outside of...

Selling extras is a habit I have yet to get into, but probably should. For 40k I have the following armies:

- I am currently in the third iteration of my Dark Angels army, which is playable as...
