Hi All,
Have you ever wished to play a bold Imperial Inquisitor facing down the enemies of man with a brave retinue of warriors around you? Or perhaps lead a sinister coven of chaos cultists in an...
First I ask myself what I want my army to look like and are GW figures the best for the job. For example; My Traitor Guard. GW do not make Traitor Guard, unless you count the incredibly overpriced...
An interesting and very detailed take from a man who's been playing since 3rd edition. So tell me dear Veteran Chunk, given that you've almost certainly:
1. bought each set of rules since 3rd,
2....
I couldn't agree more Chris, especially since the plastic moulding company Renedra began offering sub-contract mould making and production for independent sculptors at a reasonable cost. So now we...
Instant gratification in a hobby where even a small but playable force is going to cost you in excess of £100? Personally I come from a generation where the watchwords were 'make do and mend'.
...
I should point out that the real World Cup is on next year in New Zealand :D
It's also worth pointing out that England has a team in this one that actually like playing together and may even stand...
Another reason for proxying... having to fight with more points than you have.
Not all of us have the money to have 2,500 points of troops (much to GW's chagrin no doubt) in each army we possess....
With regards to lists in our group we all produce them, but more for our own reference than our opponents.
Generally before the game starts we describe what we are bringing and make damn sure our...
My two scout sentinels are loaded up for bear with Lascannons, and HK's (sometimes).
The idea being that even if both are eventually slaughtered they will:
a) get far more than their points back...
Hi thelonegrif,
I admire both your dedication and your ability to splash the cash to get exactly what you want. But what if you don't have the cash to stump up to GW (or their resellers) for such...
Or Forge of War, with W40K conversion supplements, cost = £0 :D
Or Warhammer 7th Edition, cost = well you've already got it haven't you?
Another thing to do is if you are going to include the heavy weapons in your normal IG squads is place them on 25mm bases. Then position two ordinary figures next to the weapon to represent the crew....
Take a 60mm base, a pencil, some thick card and a pair of scissors. I think you get the rest ;)
Anyhoo, once cut out seal with black undercoat.
Then stick figures to base, cutting slots if you...
I just love this quote and it immediately made me shoot over to your profile to check your age - unfortunately it wasn't public :)
You see if I applied your rule I wouldn't be able to play anyone...
Then there's the more recent Video Batreps. Some of these have become minor web-classics in their own right with music soundtracks, stop-motion animation etc. Poeple are not just reporting battles...
Guys, guys, guys we are wandering off into the realms of tautology, semi-deliberate misunderstandling and nonsense. Shall we get back to the point?
It seems that some posters here draw the line at...
Milord, 'cheap' is a relative term, which is very much the point.
Little short of brilliant! Keep it up :)
I'll get it posted on Who-Tube when I do ;)
I'm Welsh and an Ork to boot, and I work in Nottingham during the week - so GW had better get their act together or they might find a 250lb Welsh Waagh! storming through their front door sometime...
Use Heavy Bolters!!!
Autocannons are nice but you are BS3 so having 9 shots means more 3 more potential hits per turn than the Autocannons can pump out. Yes S7 is useful against light tanks but...
And here we go again with the sweeping generalizations, or am I utterly unique in enjoying and painting my figures to a moderate standard and don't mind if people play proxies. Often people will play...
Thanks Gooball I'll just stop playing competitively because the company that owns my hobby has decided to price me out of it?
Unsurprisingly I agree with Aldramech.
When it comes down to it we are both grognards, the Old Guard. We're only grumpy because we see GW trying to sell us 400 pages of something we have already...
Hmm... so young and so full of wisdom already.
Have you ever considered that there may be a reason that us middle-aged guys, who have loyally supported GW since it started, and that have treble...
