    I don't think deffkoptas or SM scouts are underrated by most people. Deffkoptas work very well in squads of 1-2 w/rokkits and 1 buzzsaw, outflanking. I think many people give them too many...

    All in all, 8th edition made the game far more playable and accessible, especially to new players. Although many complain about the game's new focus on large blocks of troops, I like how it balanced...

    I wondered that too, and so I read a lot of the fluff, and the consensus seems to be: to escape from pain and suffering.

    This might not seem like a big deal for you or me, but you have to remember...

    Regardless of what army you're playing as, characters generally fulfill one or more of five purposes:

    1. Leadership bubble

    2. Magic

    3. Absorbing damage

    4. Tipping close combats in your...

    Unfortunately, not much else looks anything like a screamer. Winged chaos spawn? With a bit of green stuff, you could also convert some Tyranid gargoyles. It's up to you.

    I usually see 1-2 units of them used as small ambush squads. 6-8 outflanking, to jump distant enemy units and grab objectives, seems to be the way they work best. The Yrrgasl (or however you spell...

    I wouldn't worry too much about it as long as you don't use more than one Hydra. I think dark elves get a little flak because they were considered overly powerful in 7th edition, and they're still...

    If you already have a land raider, then I'd definitely use it, but I'd use blood angels instead of normal space marines. If nothing else, you want those assault marines to be troop choices, so they...

    Instead of a land speeder I'd get a 2 wolf pack boxes instead of 1. Speeders are nice, but not mandatory, and you need more bodies in the army.

    I like using units of 5 scouts w/melta bombs and a...

    If you're not looking to drop a ton of money, then both armies can still work, as long as you stay away from Hydras in Dark Elves, Nurgle units in Daemons, and pewter models in general.

    We'll probably see a share of either, but from what I heard, 2400 or 2500 might become more common than 2250. The reason being, a lot of army setups don't exactly work (or aren't optimal) unless you...

    I hate 'those' players that always come out in droves for the large tournaments.

    Most, if not close to all tournaments will not allow that. On the other hand, just about anyone will allow you to play that in a friendly game, just to try them out.
