Nitpicking here, but that's not a strong analogy. There's nothing controversial or exceptional about a full-court press. It's not allowed with the youngest players (or no one would ever score), and...

It's probably not popular, but I love to take a dread with the assault cannon and a heavy flamer in a drop pod. The AC lets him get some decent shots in against side or rear armor of tanks, while the...
Damn, you're right! It's in the caption that the dedicated transport counts as a second unit of troops. My friend and I have never played that way. That's a stupid rule. Under what circumstance,...
If it's the report I think he means, the question came up in the comments section, and that's exactly what he did. The WG had a plasma pistol, but the speaker said something about having "two...
Well isn't that interesting? I bet he loves his Wolf Priests, then. He gets preferred enemy against anything with feet! I have to say, when you create and enforce a rule that benefits yourself...
Got it. I missed that one. Thanks!
I know I saw this on an earlier thread where it seemed to be a bit controversial and I can't find it anymore. My friend plays DE, and I let him use Sliscus to deepstrike and assault one game, mostly...
I've got three, all against the same guy:
1. My friend had a unit of Celestians with a Cannoness and Vulkan in a LR. I blew up the LR with a Landspeeder MM. Seven Celestians were wounded and...
One of the nastiest games I played with Necrons was a three way battle. Technically, there was a round of close combat in each player's turn, which meant a unit that assaulted be got in two rounds...
I did forget that dps were considered open topped once they land. Something doesn't sit right about comparing an immobile chunk of reentry vehicle that pops open when it hits the ground to a Raider....
I suppose you're right here, but I had this argument with my friend before the FAQ came out. He didn't want to allow it because he didn't see why a guy in power armor should be sneaking around with...
I can't like this comment enough. I truly do not understand people who want to find the most absurd way to use a rule in order to gain an advantage that no sane player would consider to have been...
Both Space Wolves and Salamanders have some fluff that indicates they have worked to save civilians. Red Cross, they ain't, but at least Logan was pissed when the Inquisition decided to "reeducate"...
Exactly. The fact of the matter is that the fluff can stay EXACTLY the same. Then, at the end, throw in the line that says, "Necrons with We'll Be Back use the Feel No Pain special rule." Imagine it...
Just out of curiosity, why is it up to the gaming group? The ruling seems clear. Nothing in the codex precludes it, nothing in the BRB precludes it, and the FAQ says it's allowable. I'm not sure...
Wouldn't you say 36 dark lances ARE anti-infantry? I'm trying to imagine saying, "You know, I fit 36 missile launchers in my list. I wonder what I'll do for anti-infantry?" Wait, I know! Shoot 36...
In general, if someone wants to concede a game when it becomes clear that he can't challenge the objectives I already have in hand, fine. What I don't like is the cranky, whiny, quitter sort of...
Personally, I'd like to see the following changes for sure.
1. Gauss becomes rending. Might as well remove Heavy Destroyers from the codex at that point, though.
2. We'll Be Back keeps its name...
The guy is getting kind of killed here, but I agree with him on a couple of points. First, it's hard to say that WG are the best terminators out there when a TH/SS terminator costs 23 points more...
And one advantage I forgot is that BC are troops, unlike vanilla marine assault squads. That's one reason to take them over Wolf Guard besides cost.
OK, so complaining in any way about Space Wolves is probably stupid, since they seem to be considered somewhere around the second or third strongest army at the moment. Personally, I'm not taking...
In fairness, his argument was that there was an intervening unit (the Raider) in the same way that an independent character might get a cover save because of a unit in front of him, even if he was...
I played a game with a friend last night. I shot at three wyches who were entirely visible to my dreadnought. However, two of the wyches were on the other side of the nose of a Raider. The nose of...
One other minor note on the Mark of the Wulfen. Taking it on the Thunderwolf is pointles, as someone pointed out, but you also can't use a TH AT ALL when you have the Mark. The attacks occur with...
Given the fact that the FAQ stated that Njal's "game turn" powers no longer have any effect if you go second, have you changed your approach at all? I'd be more tempted to leave him on the sidelines...
