The pair. Now stop being silly.

Oh yeah? Then how do you explain why my socks keep going missing? Or my hose gets all tangled up? Clearly goblins are at work here, we just need to catch them in the act.

OP,


The paraphrase of play like you got a pair came from Mk 1. In case you missed it somewhere in the static-

PP was originally spouting itself as the anti GW game, where it became commonplace to sit back and shoot from behind cover. They came out of the gate with the phrase as a catchphrase, so you... uh.. buy models.

They retreated a bit when PP started attracting D bags and TFG typos, and then they came back in No Quarter, thier resident magazine ( The antithisis of WD, that actually has- content.)
and explined themselves much more thoroughly, especially after, across the board, players, and would be players came back with a general consensous that the "Page 5 mentality" brought out the D bag in all of us when it was used in its entirety.

I play occasionally, and have most of the factions strictly based off of the models. I have no love for some of the fanbase, and it is difficult to find consensous, except that most people who play the game KNOW what "Play Like You Got A Pair..." entials. If you can get it, try to find some of the "NO QUARTER" magazines of the past. They have discussed the topic ad nausium.

Some of your ... stuff... that you interjected into the OP and added posts gives me a WTF feeling on a few different levels, so I'm kinda wondering if your just trying to start something for nothing, Sorry, but thats just how it reads.

Don't let your misconceptions and some of that groupthink hold you back from checking out WM/Hordes. Most of the armies in Warmahordes female characters run the board. Females I know ike the Merc faction. They run Talion Charter, and the other one runs Cryx, or Rhulic mercs, because she likes the little guys.


Of course, you are entirly free to do what thou whilt.

Heres the quickstart and some snacks for your parusal.
