This seemed the appropriate place to suggest this, my apologies if it isn't.

We're starting to see dual use of unit names between 40k/30k (centurion) as well as unit's having different rules in different era (primaris lightning strike fighter), so maybe have a new forum specifically for the Horus Heresy?

Just throwing it out there...

It would only really need a single separate subforum, I think, for general HH stuff.

But I think it's growing autonomous enough to justify such a thing.

I would like to see one but only if there is enough activity to merit it.

I recall the Star Trek Attack Wing forum was given a trial period to see if there was enough interest and posts to merit it's own subforum.

A similar approach seems appropriate here.

I think the trial period will do much better for horus heresy as there will be general lore discussions about the horus heresy, also the horus heresy and 30k in general is pretty interesting as is.

So we will see.

At first I was like....nah...

But now that I think of it, as it is the only thing that GW FW is doing that still is interesting and fun...

And when you think that it will eventually encompass The Scourging too...

Sure, why not?

Exactly - and I think it might take a bit more momentum/trial period before it becomes a reality.

Still, Lego wanders through here every now and then - I'm sure he'll chime in eventually!

Exactly! this was what i was meaning originally, but i'm not very well versed in webpage-speak - cheers for the clarification!

Same here - no need for 40k anymore!

At least it'd keep 30k out of my 40k.

What do you mean?

Will a forum separation reduce the risk of you encountering other players in real life who use HH armies?

I'm also all for a 30k forum. The stuff FW is doing with the setting is nothing short of outstanding and stellar work, head and shoulders above the direction 40k is going into IMHO.

Plus, it would keep the babies out who keep complaining that FW has turned into a Space Marine farm.

And here. We've had the suggestion before, but there wasn't much desire at the time. It was recommended that we tag threads with [30k]. Hope we can get one here as it means I can be lazy and not have to wander to other forums for my 30k fix!

Would this be for fluff and TT as the fluff for 30k and 40k often merges into one? That's the only issue I can see.

Sometimes you can't discuss 40k without bringing up its 30k origins.

I'm more and more in agreement that this needs to happen - I don't like to be active on tons of forums at once, but all my Heresy stuff has moved to Heresy30k because it's so hard to find Heresy stuff on Dakka...!

It doesn't need a separate background or modelling forum - I'd suggest just one '30K Army Lists & Tactics' subforum within the general 40k Section.

I'm for it. I'm about to start playing 30k with a few guys and I'm trying to find sample lists so I can get an idea of what models we should get. I find myself having to go to other forums... ... to find the information easier. I love Dakka and would rather get all my fixes here.
