1500 points is almost exclusive to our tastes where we gather around where I live - and we usually play 2v2 matches... unless it's 2v1, when I usually volunteer for playing alone on the other side for gits and shiggles.

1500pts, at my FLGC we don't have the time to do bigger games than 1500pts.

There are two nights at my FLGS when we play 40K. Veterns Night is 1750 pts. Open gaming varies but is usually 1000 pts to 2000 pts depending on the player (some are just stating and have relatively small armies).

Greebo had spent an irritating two minutes in that box. Technically, a cat locked in a box may be alive or it may be dead. You never know until you look. In fact, the mere act of opening the box will determine the state of the cat, although in this case there were three determinate states the cat could be in: these being Alive, Dead, and Bloody Furious.

I tend to prefer games around the 1500 to 1750 mark.
While I don't mind playing larger or smaller games from time to time I just feel that that points level gives a player just enough points to bring all the fun stuff in their army but still limits them just enough so they have to make some hard decisions on what to leave behind.

1500+ for me. Anything less starts to feel restrictive.

1500. Any more than that, and you lose whatever balance you may have had. I like having to make difficult choices about what to bring.
Not every army scales terribly well. Allies have alleviated many of the problems of >1500 point games, however. Double FOC makes things downright stupid IMO.

We do 1500 baby, more points are a mess and some armies are served badly by it.

Rough Rider with Boomstick

That was my magic number. However with fliers, I bump it up to 2000 so I can throw in a Skyhammer and a Aegis quad gun. I think fliers were a completely unnecessary addition to the edition.

I like to be able to include every type of forces from the org charts. And be able to finish a game in 4 hours or less. 2000 Is good by me.
