I just miss the old days of cult dreads and cult termies.....I miss the collar of Khorne.....I miss an aspiring champion retinue all on juggernauts.....I miss themed armies like my all Death Guard army......I miss Chaos.....what we have now is a watered down version...Chaos doesnt even seem to be the hated enemies of the Imperium, rather we are just an afterthought all holed up in the Eye of Terror. I just hope that someone at GW will see all this and perhaps we will see Codex: Death Guard or Codex: World Eaters etc.......Hey I can dream cant I?


Oh and one more thing I miss is Greater Deamons that had different profiles depending on the god.....Oh how I miss my Chaos of old.

Which is good for me, as I don't want to play it....

Just like I don't care for apocalypse either.

The people in the past who convinced themselves to do unspeakable things were no less human than you or I. They made their decisions; the only thing that prevents history from repeating itself is making different ones.

Blasphemy! nothing like big ass guns blowing gak up!
actually I have to agree with you, apoc needs some serious work for the biggest problem evident on any apoc BR
the parkinglot problem
People need to get more creative with their tables, like using tables on wheels to move them so you can reach models and stuff....
Personally I would also like to see something like kill team/patrol missions, like a desparate hold out by hopelessly outnumbered forces...
like planet strike with a greater disparity in defender/attacker sizes

Whilst 3rd Edition Tau codex had more fluff, most of it was really boring and lazily written. So it's not a huge loss. As a rule, I do not like too detailed history fluff, it's good to leave some stuff for imagination - see Necron codex.

And current Tau codex has plenty of options and units. Sure, many of them aren't GOOD options and in fact much of the wargear don't even work properly under current ruleset, but it's there...

Mr Vetock, give back my Multi-tracker!

Key thing you said most not GOOD options. But yeah i more of a quality over quantity guy... even though i play guard

But this fluff was few and far between, really not very good, at all..
