Warhammer 40k 7th ed?

[Defenestratus]

Not at all. We have probably the single largest gaming community on the west coast. Our flgs in-store tournaments have drawn 90+ players before, mostly local. There are a ton of people to play. At least, for 40k. Infinity and Warmachine have pretty big groups here, too. Fantasy is gone almost completely.

Yeah but no apocalypse, escalation, or I assume FW?

Wheres the fun in that? :P

The twin-linked tournaments allow Forgeworld, the Contest of Champions don't (the owner refuses to allow Forgeworld in the COCs as long as GW won't let independent retailers stock it). Pick up games allow Forgeworld, there are occasional mega-battles and some Apocalypse and stuff, you would just have to organize it. It's just that very few people are willing to actually spend the money on a super-heavy.

They don't even let their own stores stock it. Thats a pretty weird reason not to allow it.

Except GW aren't fussed about what the community does.

They've always encouraged hobbyists to do what they want with the rules. Since day one.

If only they did rather than too often doing whatever the 'experts' tell them to.

40k 7th edition and the new starter kit Beachhead Stygia. It is small kit, with only five scouts, five blood angels, a commander with jump pack, five meganobs, 10 armoured ork shootas including a nob with two-handed axe and 10 gretchins. There are some destroyed columns, destroyed gothic stone walls and a three-piece stone bridge carried by gargoyles. It has a 96 page book, but only about the half is used for rules including three scenarios. Expert rules like all vehicle-related stuff are omitted completely. There are a handful of dice, a ruler, but no blast markers.

At the same time, there will be a new starter painting kit with 10 snapfit miniatures that will bring the tactical marines from the starter box to a full squad size and gives the ork player 5 additional boyz. It has a 48 page booklet with additional scenarios and hobby guides, brushes, basing sand and glue.

I like this if it's true it tackles the whole "OMG Its so expensive to start 40K!" Issue plus Either of those forces would make a cool Kill Team Base, a variant I'm a huge fan off.
