News

INAT FAQ v3.2 & APPENDIX v1.0 NOW AVAILABLE!

So we've put the finishing touches on the latest installment of the Independent National Warhammer 40,000 Tournament FAQ (INAT FAQ for short), which includes questions/rulings from the latest Tyranid codex and brings the Space Wolves section back into line with GW's recent Space Wolves FAQ.

We've also released a brand new Appendix v1.0 of the INAT, which covers the use of Apocalypse and Imperial Armor units in tournament games of Warhammer 40K.

download the document and read more about it here.

As always, thanks to everyone who helped submit questions and who continues to give us feedback!




Featured Army Profile:
Akwatic Desert Raidas by 'generalmalaise'


Dakka has a fantasitc array of army profiles and every now and then I like to take a moment to highlight one.

This particular army profile is by a user named generalmalaise. He's never actually made any posts on our forums and it actually makes me really happy to see that even if someone isn't interested in discussing their hobby, that people are finding the tools on Dakka to be able to display their army.

While this army may not be the most visually stunning thing you've ever seen. It is what many people consider a 'typical' Ork army: Nearly everything in it is lovingly (and wackily) converted and most of the vehicles border on near insanity!

I guess if any kind of army deserves a bit more play on Dakka, its 'da Orks (who give us our name with their crazy shooting antics).

And remember, the ability to post an army profile on Dakka is open (and free) to absolutely anyone, and as demonstrated in this army profile, you can link to photos directly out of the gallery (hosting pictures in our gallery is also free to everyone).

Creating an army profile does require that you learn a bit of wiki coding, but it is really much easier than you think! You can get started by reading our wiki articles tutorial and you can always send a private message to any one of our article moderators or administrators if you ever have any questions regarding the wiki article system.



Poll
If you ran Games Workshop, would you allow Codices/Army Books to ship without models for all the units in them being available at the time of printing?
Yes, I would do what they're doing now: ship the book with units in them with no current models that therefore allow for growth of the range without re-releasing the book.
No, I would hold off on releasing the book until all the units had models for them, even if that means a massive delay in the release of the book.
No, I would ONLY allow units in the book that we have the time & money to make by the release date of the book, even if that means a drastic reduction in the number of units in the book.
I don't care / I don't play 40K or WHFB.

DakkaDakka - Warhammer, 40k, Warmachine and Flames of War Community.

DakkaDakka is a large, independent wargaming community that features discussion, tutorials and images for many games.

Warhammer 40,000

Our warhammer 40k forums are among our most popular. They have been operating the longest and contain discussion about every facet of warhammer 40k from tactics and army lists to background and upcoming releases.

Warhammer Fantasy

The Warhammer Fantasy Battle Forums are consistently increasing in popularity and are almost on a par with our 40k forums covering the same large range of content with advice from some of the best tacticians the world has to offer.

Warmachine and Hordes

Dakka now has one of the largest Warmachine and Hordes forums om the web, and has a huge range of Warmachine Pictures in our gallery.

Flames of War

Flames of War and other historical games are growing in popularity here on dakka and we invite anyone to join in and discuss them in detail. As flames of war grows more popular, Dakka's coverage will only increase. Be sure to check out the Flames of War gallery to see some inspiring stuff.

Dakka Features

Dakka is a big site with a lot to explore. Here we highlight some of our more interesting features:

Wargaming Gallery

The dakka gallery is one of the largest wargaming galleries in the world and has a huge range of tagged miniatures from many game systems. From flames of war to babylon 5, and of course 40k. You can vote on images (like using hot-or-not), and use our advanced gallery search engine to find exactly what you are looking for, be it space marines, orks, cryx or Dark Elves!

Forums

The dakka forums are growing faster and faster and are the bread and butter of the website. They still maintain quality and a fair level of freedom compared to many other forums. Our most popular forum is News and Rumours, but Dakka Discussions and 40k army lists are very popular too. There are some important rules to consider (no spam, no swearing, no piracy) but everybody gets on well enough thanks to our great moderation team.

Articles

The dakka wargaming articles are run on a wiki (like wikipedia). We have a huge range of wargaming articles covering everything from tactica to modeling and painting and even some great funny stuff. If you are bored and want to have the equivalent of dozens of magazines to read then head over to the main articles page and start clicking around. Because it is a wiki, anybody can hop in and click the 'edit' tab at the top of the page, so if you have anything to add or just see some typos or bad grammar then you can help make it better for everyone.

Army Profiles

Dakka's army profiles are a throwback to the very earliest version of dakka from the late 1990s, where various armies were highlighted in detail. Our army profiles section now contains many armies from different game systems with in depth photographs, army lists and explanations of their signifigance from their owners.
