Imagine that the 40k (or Warhammer Fantasy etc.) minis' were made of some kind of self repairing super metal, would people play even more avidly if you got trash your opponents minis' when they "die"?

**Bookwrack**

No.

**halo3uber**

Aw.

**Master Llyons**

**djphranq**

I'd only play if the pieces came together to form the Terminatrix

Does the paint self repair as well?

**cRaZy_MaChEtE_mAn**

That would be cool, I would prefer if you actually could shoot each other like ACTUATL things were fired and people actually died!

**FoxPhoenix135**

Uh.... to most people just imagining what is happening is enough.

**Dashofpepper**

I trash my own minis. Not a game goes by without something breaking or shattering.

**Dracos**

Why do you need them to be made of super metal to do this?

Is that not how the game is played normally?

**halo3uber**

Yes, Lunahound, the paint comes back and you can use a shotgun to bring them down. playing a looped version of "before I forget" by slipknot would help.

Why do we need a rule for this? Doesn't everybody destroy their opponent and their army after a game, holding their severed heads aloft on a pike and screaming praise to the Blood God?

**Master Llyons**

Only if your into that sort of thing Cheese

You fething newbs dont know jack about real 40 k , when we play at my crib we have fething hammers, and when a model dies I take that bitch and smash it to pieces.

Gets burned by a flamer, I use a cetalene torch and burn that motha like a creme brula.

Explaoded, muthfucka I got 20 lbs of black powerd I got a miniature cannon in my fuckin living room we load those bitches up and shoot that gak at my fething neighbors dog that gaks on my lawn.

Bitches dont know what the feth.

**Osyr**

I get it. You have a Necron avatar, and the super-metal your minis are made of is necrodermus. Real necrons probly cost more than plastic ones.(Mayby...)

**the_emperors_renegade**

are you high?

**Corpsesarefun**

To be serious for once, god no!
I could never willingly damage something someone has spent hours lovingly constucting/converting and painting, although interestingly i have no issues with killing things

**Hollismason**

I don't know what kind of life you lead, but what you call 'so late,' I call 'noon.' It's actually rather standard for people to be up at that hour.

**Kirasu**

A guy got so mad at a tournament that he threw his tau models at me once and they broke

Does that count? However that is not so much "Iron man" 40k .. its more "sissy man 40k"
