It's not just xenos players who are frustrated when faced with what appears to be a Chaos Space Marine army, or a Space Marine army, only to find out that they're actually playing against Space Wolves.

I'd agree with this. Too many marines seem to be of the Indecisive chapter. In my opinion, it detracts from the aesthetic appeal of 40k to be playing against obvious Ultramarines using Space Wolves rules, or "pre-heresy" World Eaters as Blood Angels...using normal CSM models.

You people are uptight.

Drinking does not necessarily result in bad behavior, it also not against the rules of 40k. Calling the cops on someone who is drinking at an event is so childish, as Dash said you ought to be the one kicked out. Talk about making a big deal out of nothing at all...

If someone is obviously being belligerent then it would seem appropriate to have some action taken, however this belligerence could stem from any number of things. People should put personal biases against drinking aside.

It sounds like DoP likes to ruffle some feathers at times but you guys could all learn a little bit from him and just relax a little. The game, the jokes, the drinking all seem fairly innocent and in the spirit of having a good time.

Bull ing gak
If you are legally drunk at an event, thats your problem. Get the hell away from me before you cause a scene and I am forced to hurt you.

This thread appears to have gone as far as it can on the original topic, and has shown a repeated tendency to drift onto other topics, and into personal argument.

Thanks for all the good and thoughtful comments, guys.
