I built a new table for my dining area. I have a wife and six kids, and wanted something we could sit at for Christmas dinner with the in-laws. I also wanted a 6x4 playing surface (but didn't...

Yes. The Tyranids have a Venomthrope that gives any unit with a model within 6" the Shrouded special rule, so +2 to their cover save. The Tyranids also have a drop pod called the Tyrannocyte, I...

So I played son #1 the other day at 1000 points.

His list:
HQ - Hive Tyrant with Stranglethorn cannon and boneswords
Elites - Venomthrope, Zoanthrope
Troops - 2x genestealer broods...

Another thing that we're all missing out on is the ability to test the waters on these ideas. Dark Vengeance was a boxed set with Dark Angels and Chaos forces, right? They added two subsequent...

Can't customize his Hive Tyrant, its an Oooooold pewter model. It's so old it looks cartoony. However, we did kit out his Carnifex kinda like you suggested. As you pointed out, the Carnifex kit...

Yeah, we played a 1000 point battle the other day, I forget what the mission name is, but it was 1 victory point per unit wiped out. He chased me around the board with his Stormboyz and his Killa...

I appreciate very much the suggestion. I've played 1000 point battles now with two of the boys, and you're very right - the nature of the game has changed considerably by going up to 1000 points...

Okay, son #3 plays Tau. I play Space Marines, oldest son plays Tyranids, second son plays Orks. We play against each other mostly, and our lists are not designed to be killer, but mostly to be...

You've seen my other posts by now, I'm sure. But just in case, the quick version: I play WH40K. I have three sons who play (14, 12, and 10). Oldest plays Tyranids, I play Space Marines, younger...

My oldest son plays Tyranids. Mostly based on leftover genestealers from Space Hulk (the 1990's one). His army looks like this:

HQ
Hive Tyrant

Troops
3 Tyranid warriors
up to 40...

So, as I've mentioned elsewhere, I play WH40K with my three oldest sons, ages 14, 12, and 10. I play Space Marines and have an eclectic army made up of what was cheap on e-bay, my oldest plays a...

I've got four armies - well, in my family there are currently four armies. I play Standard Space Marines, my oldest son (14) plays Tyranids, my second son (12) plays Orks, my third son (10) plays...

So, my oldest son plays Tyranids and wants to get a venomthrope (or more than one). However, we have Codex: Tyranids and they aren't listed in there at all. Where do we find the official rules for...

So, with Necrons being next up on the list of codex refreshes, and rumors indicating that there might be Necrons in the next boxed set, is there any chance that the next boxed set will be Sisters vs....

As somebody who ALWAYS wants to organize tournaments for whatever (computer games, mini's games, sports I play, etc), let me share one important thought:

Get a firm commitment from the people you...

what's awesome is this kid is 12 and he picks up on tactical stuff super quick. He's probably just as tactically capable right now as I am at 42 - after 17 years serving in the Infantry. He's going...

After seeing this thread I decided to get some 40mm bases and some magnets, and magnetize my termies so they CAN go on the bases, if I want them to.

This may be stupid, but... I just looked through the rulebook again, briefly, and didn't see anything that addressed it.

My second son plays orks and has a Warboss that we use as a Weirdboy. He...

Oooh, those are all EXCELLENT reasons! Any of them would make for an excellent novel, or even provide motivation for the Eldar to get involved in a major meta-tournament event like TauOnline used to...

Why would the Eldar and the Necrons ever end up in conflict? The Eldar live on their craftworlds and the Necron are like, all about taking planets, aren't they? Or is there something in the...

I'm sure I'm just showing my ignorance, but I always looked at it as HQ, 2 Troops, + 1 or 2 other things. My justification for each boxed set was like this:

AOBR was 10 tac marines (potentially...

I forgot to include an option for "Other". Please feel free to post and describe your preferred "other."

What, in particular, would make a good Sisters of Battle vs Eldar boxed set?

Since GW has broken with the standard USD125 price point for their next boxed set, perhaps this means there is a great deal more flexibility in what can be included in the future. Also bearing in...
