Posting again here from the main 40K therad:

Since I have no locals from my gaming group going to OFCC this year and I want to save money I ether need to:

Find someone already with a room looking for a guy to pay for half the room in exchange for a bed, or...

Someone willing to join me in getting a room we could split.

PM me if interested.

I have no locals going to OFCC to share a room with this year.

Anyone got a bed going spare or want to share a room?

Easy conversion to make Lizardmen Cold Ones less expletive-y... Use Saurus warrior heads instead of the Cold One heads.

Besides, if you think the 'leaks' aren't coming from GW themselves at this point, I don't know what to tell you...

Apparently I procrastinated too long and missed out on getting a room in the hotel.

Anyone got enough space for a Sisters of Battle player for Saturday night at least, and hopefully Friday?

In order to better recognize me, I'm that guy who shared the big tray of brownies and played Inquisition last year, and I've played all Mega Armored Nobz and had those red robots converted out of Aegis Defense Lines to count as Dreadknights in previous years.

GsC write-up makes me think 3 detachments will be pretty standard for tourney scene. 2k and 3 detachment limit. I'd like to see no limits, but that is a lot for some people to take in. 

Also 6 wound Captain Generic puts the Super Heavy that much more into perspective. Maybe this edition will get events such as Elvensword to go Dr Strangelove on these elements. To that same point, I'm hoping we get all events to allow the 3 fortification detachment, ya know, the only way to get forts in your list now. The exclusion of networks has kept me from buying any. Acceptance by the community would change that. Or building a table in the garage again. Cuz nothing like epic home games.

No longer any worries about how to get that Haemotrope Reactor in-between your Plasma Obliterator and Void Shield Generator either.

Why just have one Fortification when you can build three at a much higher price?

Hmm... no need to model those Acolytes in Power Armor with Plasma rifles any more.

It looks like when fired on Supercharged (the new Gets Hot) the model is slain on the to-hit roll of a one. According to the leaked rules, the only time the word slain gets mentioned is after all saves have failed and wounds are reduced to zero and the model is removed.

Roll a Supercharged one with a Plasma Pistol = firing model is slain.
Roll a one with Plasma Gun or Plasma Incinerator on Supercharged = resolve all shots (due to Rapid Fire, presumably) and then you're slain.

No armor save, FNP equivalents or the like, just slain.

(assuming I'm interpreting it correctly, that is...)

Nice.

Well, can you blame him?

I mean, I'm waiting for the new Wonder Woman movie to come out too, but to blatantly post the blueprints for her Invisible Jet like that...

It's just beyond the pale.

There's always the option of Kabuki-like facepaint,

Not planning on getting a box, but if you end up with an extra rulebook I'll probably buy it off of you at OFCC.

It would be a nifty little detail if Assault Vehicles had a special rule which let them disembark AFTER moving.

Pure speculation on my part, though.

I just PM'd to pick up the spare opening (once I actually pay for my ticket, that is)

I plan on not having Saint Celestine in my list.

Since it's OFCC, I may finish that unit of Close Combat Celestians

Much less likely to call a mulit-charge (and get overwatched by more than one unit) if you can just consolidate into neighboring units and involve them without fear of their (hitting on a 6) firepower.

Gunlines now have to set up 4.1" apart or more.

H'ray....

Really tempted to run Orks on Saturday at PFC games to play them once in 7th edition.

Kinda the same reason I'm bringing my Sisters down of the shelf.

Shake things up a little.

This may actually get me to dust off my Sisters for the first time since Immolator Rush.

I think I still have that all-GW female model IG ally force to go with it as well.

I find I'm in need of human arms (IG/Astra Militarum, Fantasy in a pinch) and have Skiitari stuff still in the box to trade

Unless you fill it full of Arcoflagellants, it doesn't count.

Hmmm.... time to build that Plasma Obliterator and add a Haemotrope Reactor to the list, maybe also some Promethium Relay Pipes to connect them as well...

I'd say 1500 allows some, but not all, of the toys but still leaves plenty of room for fun and fluffy.

1500

(the fact Ive been playing 1500 tournaments at PFC games has shown me that.)

Dang.

That big Xmas ornament I bought to make Guilliman sitting in a stasis globe is kinda moot now.

I'll be there with a practically untested converted army, as usual.

This time: Null Deploy! (kinda... more like Alpha Deep Strike)

I actually hope to face Magnus at TSHFT in a couple of weeks just to have had the experience.

Also to see if I can assault with four Dreadkinghts at the same time.

See? Plastic Sisters!

...

Oh, you wanted more than three of them?

I just realized that the Triumvirate of the Imperium has the AdMech Carnifex guy, new Inquisitrix and Living Saint (and back-up singers) all together.

I may actually buy it now for conversion fodder.
