  1. Tracking the different rules and points changes is getting annoying. I wish GW would make a digital rules source that would get updated every time they mess with things. Easier to track one source with edits then having a main rule book, army rule book, FAQs, chapter approved, appendix 1 and 2, Forgeworld, Forgeworld FAQ. Some easy way to make tracking rules and points changes would be helpful; especially since I only play like once a month now.

    In this edition, Tervigons can only replace *Fleshborer Gaunts.* In a mixed unit (like devourers and fleshborers), only the gaunts with fleshborers can be replaced.

    It's not a huge problem, but it does mean that a bunch of fleshborer gaunts need to be built and purchased before fielding a Tervigon has any merit.

    I wasn't meaning to imply tervigons can replace dev gaunts. My bad. I was meaning to mix the group so that the dev gaunts have a meat shield to stay alive.

    A tervigon? That is a great idea. Always forget about that guy, even in my re-read, overlooked him. Yeah, that would work. Darn, though, means I need to buy guants...

    Don't forget, Tervigons can replenish gaunts in a unit for free. If you decide to make a new unit you have to pay for them with reserve points.  So it is always better to use the Tervigon to replenish a large group of gaunts with devourers and fleshborers.

  4. Game 4: Defiler charges my carnifex. I have to roll 3 saves of the 5 wounds for him to live. I roll 2 saves and have to burn a cp to try and live. I roll my save and keep the fex alive! This ties up his defiler from running amuck in my firing base changing the game into my favor. Litterally 1 dice roll changed the whole game. It was crazy.

    Game 3: hot genestealer on khorne bloodletters action. After killing 25 of the 30 bloodletters Mike rolled a 1 on moral bringing back 6. Next round, 10 more bloodletters die, and again a 1 was rolled for moral bringing back 5 more bloodletters. All of this action mid field held the line and allowed the Hgants to sneak away with the objective.

    Game 1: my opponent holds 2 grots. One stays captured and the other runs away into my genestealers. I deepstrike some dudes and capture all 3 grots. It's looking like a solid 6 points for me... 1 grot runs away, even after a cp reroll, into his army giving him the 2 points for capturing a grot that I once captured. We tie the game 3 to 3. It was an awesome opening to the OFCC.

  5. Tcrux had a blood bowl display out and my 7 year old latched onto it. Not knowing how to play it or knowing what models are needed, I was hoping someone at OFCC could sit me down and show me the ropes of the game. I am playing in all things 40k this weekend. So evenings would work best if someone would have the time.

    Thanks.

    As a solo model, the Abominant would already be pretty nifty – he’s basically a bite-sized Carnifex

    So far he sounds better then a carnifex... higher strength, more damage output, most likely better WS, character, and cult ambush.  It will be interesting to see his point value.
