To me the Chaos Space Marines needed to be characterised as a threat reaching back to the Imperium's past, a threat which had refused to lie down and become part of history. This is in part why the gods of Chaos are less pivotal in Codex Chaos; we felt that the motivations of Chaos Space Marines should remain their own, no matter how debased and vile. Though the corrupted Space Marines of the Traitor Legions make excellent champions for the gods of Chaos, they are not pawns and have their own agendas of vengeance, empire-building vindication or arcane study which gives them purpose. |

Is it just me that is surprised at the low number of 35+ players? In my time of playing 40k I've generally noticed a little under half of the players at the LGSs (well, probably more like 30-35%) I've encountered are in that age bracket. Seeing as 40k is so old I would have thought that would contribute to that number as well. Maybe DakkaDakka isn't the best representation of the overall 40k demographic. Thoughts?

Just because someone plays 40k doesn't mean he's a member of dakka, or any gaming forum at all. There are a lot of closed friend player groups who barely even have contact with the online community at all.

44 and not ready to retire.
A lot of folks get started in miniature gaming before they reach their twenties and then drop out in their twenties once they get a significant other and have kids or other weighty time consuming responsibilities.
Then we reach a point where the kids and the job and the other responsibillities don't take up all of our time so we pick up hobbies again. For me, WHFB and 40K were relaxing so I picked back up in 2000 where I left off back in 1990. Other people go through longer gaps or turn to other hobbies like golf, dancing, gardening, computer games, or guns. I find those activities to be interesting occasionally but they don't hit all of my buttons like tabletop war gaming and miniature modeling.
You youngsters still have these dilemmas, decisions, and angst in front of you. I'm happy to be past that point.
