I've been struggling with 6th Edition for a while. I've found it very hard to work out why. I'm painting like I was before, I like my armies more than I did before. The rules don't appear to be frustrating like 5th. Every game doesn't threaten to end as a draw like 5th, Close combat isn't over powering like 4th, The rules have depth (looking at you 3rd), The armies and rules aren't over complicated (2nd edition) and you don't need a Games Masters. The use of allies has opened up something like 40 odd combinations of forces for me to play with. So by all rights I should be gaming every night and enjoying the fresh air that 6th edition has brought, but I'm not. The last game I played was weeks ago and I haven't got one planned.
Is 6th Ed too good? Is it like a Ford Mondeo, it just works, but without the possibility you might not reach you destination (like a Mk1 Escort or an Alpha) the excitement has just gone? I hope not. Or is 6th a bit too much like 2nd where games take so long they are daunting and one side can once again wiping the fall with the opposition ending in frustration? I think I've only lost 1 game so far.
Or am I just having a off quarter and I just need to get a few more games in?
