At a tournament if what I see isn't what I get then it shouldn't be on the table. In friendly play I'm happy to work with more or less anything; the better I know you the more goodwill I'll extend.

What do people think about using an unmodified Drop Pod as a spod?It is definatley not WYSIWYG,they're not even the same army.INAT FAQ says to use drop pods or similar,but what about friendly games?

There is a guy in my FLGS who uses a softball sized foam covered with kidney beans as his SPOD. Looks really cool, has about the right size footprint, and nobody has had a problem with it before.

Quote please.

Nothing wrong with making custom models - doubly so when there's no official model.

Depends on the game. Tournament (any level), I'm pretty strict with myself.

Friendly games, trying new lists out - much more lenient
