It is pretty crap to have your enemy just 'happen' to make contact with a MC using one guy out of the entire unit, plow every single attack into nothing but the gribblies and then just watch the MC just, I don't know, get scared and have a heart attack? Never figured it out. Just know No Retreat is crap from the ground up and needs reworked. Preferably starting at the assault resolution part of the entire daisy chain of unfortunate rules.

Yeah, it sucks when your opponent out-maneuvers you. Learn how to judge distances.

Shh Nurglitch, you'll be accused by the NR! Troll of looking down with a steely gaze at people who choose to play horde armies and dismissing them as being lacking in skill.

Even if you play a horde army, like myself, apparently there are no ways to control NR! so that doesnt happen. Nope, none at all.

Yeah, that's true for serious 40k players. Some of us don't manage to get in all that many games, so we sometimes struggle with judging distances.

I think that's where the problem lies. Multi-squad combat and NR can really screw over a newer player who is using a horde army more than someone of equal skill level using an elite army.

Fortunately a game of 40k is not a life or death situation, and newer players have the opportunity to adapt and overcome. It's unreasonable to be a new and inexperienced play and still expect to win.

I really dont like bikes getting rentless, corect me if im wrong but every race with bikes can only take assault weapons except SM, so it just seems odd that it would be a general rule.

Well, considering which races that can take them is...
Space Marines: Bolters help
Eldar: It won't help.
Orks: Won't help.
Dark Eldar: Actually have rapid fire weapons.
So it help 1/2, which isn't that bad. It should really only be "bike mounted" weapons IMO. I think it's rather silly that marines can relentlessy fire Plasma guns from the hip.

My most hated rule...don't know actually, isn't something I really dislike...Ok, maybe Dawn of War, not really a rule though

My most hated rule?
The lame GW responce to the Stormshield issue for older Dex's.

Eldar does get a hand, as the autarch can take a heavy weapon in there...

Disruption pods KFF and the like, its railroading all guard players into one style of play, and thats melta vets. I want big tank battles!

Minor Minor Minor consolation for how much harder vehicles are to kill at range, and how much more effective they are in the game.
