Well, I've set the new game up, read the rules and played through my first game (against myself) to test the rules out to make sure that I understand them...

It's interesting, and I'm looking...

I haven't played BFG much, but I would have to say no, or not very well.

One of the good things about Homeworld is the 3D action. And there is none of that in BFG. I think it would be quite...

Why should you need to sit down with your opponent and tell them that at some point during the game, you may well use more CPs than you are allowed, and use this one turn of cheating / rules...

Mwah, hah hah!

Who doesn't like the idea of being a Chaos God, competing with the other Chaos Gods to corrupt and destroy the Warhammer World according you your own style and taste?

Produced by...

It's also quite clearly against the spirit of the rules.

The rules are generally very simple and clearly written. You don't have very many options (you can basically only spend action points on...

I agree with the way everyone else seems to see it. It would be cheating.

If you were meant to do it, there would be a rule that specifically allowed you to do it. The whole game is (supposed...

Me and three friends have played the first mission several times, the second just once so far.

Mission 1:

I won as the terminators (just). I lost one or two marines, and relied on pulling a...

Did you have enough Command Points to clear it? :D

I'm sure I'm not the only one who's very grateful for the work you're putting in!

I look forward to seeing more here. I would also love to help a bit in recreating it / making something new and...

Yes, 2 points to move back, but you get a free shot with your move.

Same here. I'll only add the extra arms as a modeling project. And funnily enough, the 5-limbed stealers are actually my favourite poses.

Yeah, I'm really gutted about this. It was a great site. So inspiring. Some great articles and blogs.

I'm kicking myself for not downloading / copying some of them recently as I'm about to...

Or, presumably, spend two cps to move back a space and shoot!

But what does that mean, in practice? If the mission briefing says I get 2 reinforcement blips per turn, that's obvious. I bring the two blips on during the genestealer turn (reinforcement...

I'm a bit puzzled as to how this works. In some missions the 'stealer player begins with say 2 blips.

What does s/he do with them? Are they placed, lurking until the first stealer turn, so...

I'm going to model an extra arm on to both of mine - probably taken from a regular genestealer sprue.

True! I did notice that! Which was partly why I wondered just how long (and how uniform) other people's timers were.

It probably doesn't matter hugely, as long as you do swap sides as you're...

I'll be painting mine as Blood Angels. I have a BA army, but they won't fit in with it, sadly. Due to basing and the level of detail!

I see my models as being stand-alone for the game.

I seem to remember that in first edition the Space Marine player was supposed to have 3 minutes for his turn.

I bought two copies of the new edition and noticed that my two timers had different...

No; most of them have the full number of arms. It's only a couple that are missing them.

I think the SBG is alive for two key reasons:

1. WotR simply cannot do (and does not try to do) all that anyone with an interest in LotR gaming would want to do. The LotR includes some really...
