Yes, it's oh so much fun to always be picking up handfuls of models after spending 20 minutes of setup time. Not everyone has the benefit of lots of people not trying to break the system to play with on a regular basis. I play Codex marines, without a bike chapter master/captain and command squad with grav guns, or any bikes, or grav centurions, or any of the other typical strong choices from the codex. My regular opponents are all min/maxed Tau, Eldar, Taudar, Chaos with drakes, and now guard with allied inquisitor shenanigans. I've won a game in 6 months. Part of that is my abysmal die rolling(pretty consistently under average for hit/wound/making saves, I keep track) but the other part is we're basically playing two different games.
I'll be lobbying hard to make sure my store sticks to Battle-forged only for events, because there are people here who will abuse the hell out of being allowed to ignore the FoC.
