    That's right, there's skulls as well!

    Actually I play Night Lords so skulls without "gribbly" bits work best for me. In fact I've already mixed in a reasonable number of loyalist bits to...

    I prefer 1500 or 1250 points. It removes some of the craziness that the game has become plus it requires you to make some hard decisions about what's in and out rather than just taking all the toys....

    I don't think chaos gods ever wanted Horus to win, what they really wanted was the 10,000 years of mayhem that followed. The warp is a reflection of emotion in the physical universe. A united...

    Don't forget an Eldar Saim-Hann jetbike army - I'd always been tempted by this if I was to start another army.

    You could have six really fast troop squads to capture objectives for 306 points...

    Another space marine costume

    The Wellington Sevens is an international seven-a-side rugby tournament known for the fan's costumes and party atmosphere. In fact the costumes and partying are probably a bigger draw card than the...

    IMO they're butt ugly and so I wouldn't give them table space. Funnily enough I like obliterators and despite the similar aesthetic think they look a lot better.

    Three things:
    My friends still play and it's a good way to socialise with them;
    I've already got a few thousand points in each of 4 different armies;
    I quite like the background universe and...

    I play about once a month on average which I consider casual. However I spend more time making or updating existing models. I also try to build fluffy armies rather than just going for something...

    Off topic but have a look at using half of the twin linked chaos defiler ones. Possibly a little too big though.

    By my count it's three/one to codex space marines:
    - Sentinels of Terra
    - Clan Ruakaan
    - and now Legion of the Damned.

    I've had CSM army since I started playing in early 3rd edition. While...

    I'll only buy a unit that has both good rules and that I like the look of. Each edition and codex edition release units that had been good tend to become rubbish. I've got a lot of stuff that I...

    6651

    It's dated 1993. It includes rules for using marines in power armour and missions using chaos terminators vs imperial ones.

    I voted for a new edition so that things hopefully get re-balanced.

    To be honest though, the core rules are the best they've released so far. The problem lies with some of the new codexes and...

    Very much this. If the codex title reflected how it was predominately played competitively it would be called "Codex Helldrakes, Cultists & Spawn".

    Hardly a new primarch, rather an existing one.

    If was a new one it would either be the lost or the damned (legions 2 and 11) and GW has already indicated that it will never happen.

    The Valkyrie has no fire points and I'd have thought that you'd be wanting to maximise the shooting for a psykers. So I wouldn't do it.

    I'd either put something cheaper/different in the Valkyrie...

    Agree, although I prefer the 1500 point end of that range. Having to decide which units and upgrades to take under those restrictions makes the whole game that much more interesting.

    Off the top of my head a 20 model CSM squad with no upgrades costs 270 points so no.

    You could probably do five squads plus a character and a few basic upgrades giving you 101.
