So I actually did this. I painted up one of the regular looking DV Chosen (with the bolter) as a Black Legion CSM to see how it looked. And, while it didn't look bad, it confirmed my general fear...

You will get no argument that the ex-GW crowd tend to be rather... vehement in their condemnation (I was one of them until recently), however I think it's mostly a counter-argument to the almost...

I don't know.. I think we DO need a 2nd -> 3rd level revamp. I think part of the issue right now is the rules try to do everything for everyone; skirmish, company, regiment+ level, when those layers...

That's a good idea, actually! Word Bearers were on my list too at one point but I'm tired of painting red (I play Khador in Warmachine) :p

While I give kudos to the post, I think the big issue with this stuff is that it almost always boils down to aesthetics. It doesn't matter how great the quality of GW's competitors are (and let's be...

I do not think there should be a full on "the universe implodes" like WHFB. What I think would be interesting to see would be evolving the story like say 100 years or so. The Golden Throne fails,...

First, this is from purely a fluff and aesthetics standpoint. I know CSM is in a bad place right now, I don't care :) Anyways I want to focus on building a fluffy Undivided-style CSM army (i.e. no...

Hopefully we get them to realize that community involvement benefits everyone, and hopefully (although doubtful) get them to realize that balanced rules require less FAQs and let them focus more on...

In the summer I'm going to return to 40k after some 15 years of not playing. I've been giving a lot (and I do mean a LOT) of thought on what armies appeal to me and what I would be interested in...

What it should look like IMHO, is a streamlined version of the rules that cleans things up. I honestly would not mind an AoS-style approach: Rules ("Datasheets") included with purchases and...

I might have to consider that. I Just really like the idea of having an elite strike team of Space Marines, but I want to invent my own Chapter for the most part so I don't want to use Grey Knights...

While this is true, losing every game especially when it's just because the game is so unbalanced that what you like is bad, is going to piss anyone off and make them frustrated. With the investment...

So basically my answer is "Maybe, but probably not if you use Codex: Space Marines" :(

Every so often I really consider getting back into 40k. Currently I have been eyeing the "Strike Force Ultra" box on the GW site and thinking about whether or not it's something that's viable to...

More than likely I'd be looking to do a hybrid army. Have a solid firebase, of course, but have some units that can move forward to seize objectives, or take out key enemy units, draw fire and the...

Thanks for the tips :D I think to start I'll probably go one with 2x Plasma (anti-MEQ) and one with 2x Missiles (anti-Everything Else), that seems like a good all-around option, and then I have the...

I've decided to pick up 40k again after not playing since 3rd edition, around late 2001/early 2002. I have a Tau Megaforce from 4th edition (circa 2006) lying around that I am going to use for the...

Forgive me if this is the wrong place for this kind of question - tactics seemed appropriate.

I am starting up 7th edition after not playing since 3rd and I am looking to collect a Tau...

IIRC (it's been a long time) the 2nd edition cards I think were for each army, not one (or maybe that's just how I played) so I liked the idea that there was extra things to do beyond just the...

Sadly I never liked any of the Big Four; when I played Chaos it was entirely for the Legions, so until GW actually decides to do legit legions in 40k...

Tau is looking likely at the moment, I also...

Maybe if Chaos wasn't garbage this edition. I played Chaos in 2nd and 3rd :p I just have no desire to do Nurgle and everything else is crap, it seems. I actually thought of doing a Crimson...

So I have decided to take the plunge and investigate 7th edition. I'm starting totally from scratch as the last time I played was in 3rd edition circa 2002, so I remember the core rules and nothing...

It seems to me that the cards in general were a neat concept but not taken to the right level. I would have preferred something like the old 2nd edition Mission Cards, which I personally thought...
