Dang, shots fired! While Dboy was always rather annoying, ravenousD usually has logical advice. May not always present it in the best way, but it's usually accurate.

Martel's just pissed because I told him off the other day and he ran to the mods after Ive spent the last year telling him how to fix his junk ass blood angels but he refuses to even attempt anything outside his exceptionally small and closed minded box of options. You cant help people that wont step out of their comfort zone.
He thinks that he cant take libby conclave with his blood angels because its vanilla and therefore allies, something he refuses to take. Its impossible to convince him that 1) You can win with blood angels if you use your brain and 2) eldar can be beaten.
I gave up trying to help but he keeps doing that thing with his face where he opens the dump valve and spews his verbal diarrhea all over the forum. Apparently he took it personally and has started posting about me in other threads. Its cute that I have a hate groupie now.

Rick Priestley said it best:
Bryan always said that if the studio ever had to mix with the manufacturing and sales part of the business it would destroy the studio. And I have to say – he wasn’t wrong there! The modern studio isn’t a studio in the same way; it isn’t a collection of artists and creatives sharing ideas and driving each other on. It’s become the promotions department of a toy company – things move on!

If your answer to Martel is "Use a different codex" or "change your list," then the problem isn't with Martel. The problem is with the game and the people who intentionally break it.

Never to my opponent of course. Everyone I play with knows anyway. Of course, there's nothing for BA to update to or I'd consider it.

So your answer is to nerf armies to the ground, creating a new top that hopefully has your army in it? And you say you ARENT a TFG? Now I'm laughing...

And yet, the nerf bat's not coming out. In fact, the reverse is happening with the new space marine book.

Nerf until strict proportional equality has been effected. If my 15 point missile launcher isn't proportionately equal to whatever heretical 15 ppm upgrade you are using, then MOAR NERFS!

That's asinine, a terrible idea. I say if you enjoy playing at the power level of your selected army then by all means enjoy the frick out of it. If you want something more powerful.... Well you know where to look

There shouldn't be a "more powerful." Period.

I think people would be happy if their codex were as dynamic and internally balanced as the Eldar. This means, of course, that everyone gets D-weapons.

Too late for that. You can't put the genie back in the bottle. Besides, you need something that GMCs respect.

It's not happening. They haven't handed out nerfs since 3rd ed, and they are counting on never-ending escalation to keep selling things. The primary mystery is why they leave half the armies in the gutter.
