    To be honest I think the sales problems are more to do with staffing issues than everything else. The retail chain in the UK lost about 60% of it's staff in the last year or so. Not all of them have...

    Sorry can I just change the analysis of the Handgunners v the Chaos Knights a bit. Bearing in mind pre-measuring, I think it should go a little more like this:

    I quite like the 6 Treekin option. They kill about 10 the first round of combat, then 8.75 the next two rounds. That's 27 dead Marauders over three rounds of combat and they'll have lost two models...

    Just use a cheap throwaway unit to the front (a couple of inches away) and move another, ranked unit to the flank. The Horde of Marauders has the choice of charging or standing there. If they charge,...

    I've seen some good lists based off Black Templars surprisingly. Two assault cannons per squad, take the re-roll hits vow, minimum crusader squads with Multi-meltas/lascannons for tank busting and...

    Yes it does. The Witch King is a hero and so must have an ordinary model in his formation. This means that when the Ringwraiths are reduced to two models and take a further casualty, the Witch King...

    Ummm Hugz, I have 2 units of Hive Guard. It's not a lot but I was planning on relying on close combat for most of my tank killing. How does that work for you? Is it fun? Fustrating? Successful?

    I've used shrikes and I tend to find they need Gargoyles to be effective (mobile cover). That then means the theme of my army changes and I end up spending a third of my points on fast units. I'd...

    I wanted some advice on a Tyranid warrior themed force I was working on. It's a little low on ranged firepower but is surprisingly resilient. I was also tempted to just forget about the heavy...
