 Also,,unsourced rumor on FB is its going to be 110.00 us. seems reasonable but possibly a bit on the cheap side.

 

I read a rumor elsewhere that it's 95£

That starter box is pretty hefty with a hardbound rulebook included - curious on the price.

Anyone excited about 9th edition?

Whoa there tiger

Yeah, I'm not sure.  I do have some liquid green stuff but I've never really used it.  Should have a go at the hood

They mention a new one in the FAQ

Cuz it wasn't mentioned as an important reroll?

I don't understand your comment.  I was just saying that rolling a 1 for plasma isn't all too bad when you can spend a Command point to reroll

Seems like Gets Hot! results are a thing of the past

Demon players do get an advantage of sorts in that they can choose what type of demon they're paying for as the situation dictates, not having to specify it pre-game.  Pretty cool

The last sentence says they will be discussing points tomorrow

Pm'd

Thanks Romans!  I've been finding that painting on sprue has some assembly challenges (e.g. gaps) of its own.

Gettin' my Belisarius Cawl on.  unfortunately, the lighting washed out most of his detail

Awesome!

*flips table anyway

So you can prevent another unit from charging you next turn if they're close enough 

Hey all - I've been getting enough painting in for an update: finished a squad of Rust Stalkers and five more Vanguard w/ a single Arc Rifle.  I also added Alphas to my larger Vanguard squads (one with taser goad, one with arc maul). 

These larger pics really show how bad I am at assembly -

I found some waterslides from the Bolt Action German Tanks set that I used for numbers, pretty close to what I was looking for and I'm happy with them.  Added markings to the Onagers and Kastelans.  There's a few subtle warning signs on the Onagers from the Skitarii decal set (if you look hard enough).

As someone who just got into 40k and picked Blood angels and Orks.... I'm liking the rule changes for my melee guys lol

User name checks out

Chargers strike first?  Sold!

I'm excited about the Skitarii / Cult merger.  I've got a Skitarii core with a Cohort Cybernetica now - I look forward to fielding a Tech-Priest Dominus more like an HQ choice for my entire army rather than tied to a certain formation.  I have both codexes, which I think I'll actually hold on to for the fluff and purty pictures.

That's idealism talking.  But as i said, Tournament players don't want it that way.  No one would WANT imbalance, as Fluger said.

Sorry, I think I read your previous post before my coffee kicked in. I agree that balance and less randomness is a good step towards tournament play.

40K players are doing what any intelligent person does when they wield an imbalance:  they wield it to maximum effect.  Of course.  

Disagree on this one.
