I have always been interested in what draws people to 40k and wonder if it has anything to do with what spiritual or religious belief system people have (if any).
Furthermore, since so many religious ideas are reflected in the 40k universe, it would be fascinating to see if people from one religious tradition would be more likely to collect and play with a particular 40k faction.
For example, would Wiccans and Neo-Pagans be more drawn to Eldar, since the craftworlds are named after pagan holidays (Beltane, Samhain) and a lot of their mythology has similarities to Hindu mythology. Or perhaps Christians enjoy certain Space Marine chapters for similarities to biblical characters and events?

Perhaps it doesn't matter at all, but it would be interesting nonetheless!

I've designed a hand full of 28mm "scaled" sci-fi civilian vehicles to populate the typically desolate streets of the future cities (wargames , skirmish games, apocalyptic, etc). At this stage I would like to asses relative popularity/preference of the particular models. For scale the smallest model is just under 20 mm tall, the train is about 10" long All models are very close to scale to eachother. Im hoping this will help me prioritize production, assuming there is enough of a response.

Please Vote for models you would be most interested in...
Up to 2 of the numbered models

And/OR
Up to 2 of the lettered models

And/OR
Not interested unless they come armed

OR Not interested, I like my streets empty of anything civilian as wargames should be.


F/0 can be voted in either category as I view it as a threshold on size and volume for production.

After reading the Tau Codex and the GW FAQ. At what Ballistic Skill do you think a Tau Seeker Missile hits a marker lit flyer?

- BS1

or

- BS5

BS5, there is a thread on it somewhere.

That thread also discussed using Markers to boost BS of Overwatch, but that was proven wrong

-A small base counts as land raider!
-A large monster swap (Daemon Prince as Carnifex, etc.)

-A small based model as another small based model
-A small wargear difference
-Nothing!

I mean because they are stuck inside an inescapable private dimension, only to be thrown at someone else, then re-imprisoned.

I take it you're not a fan of the glorious tradition of jobbing?

I would be interested in knowing what people want from plastic terrain?

More Cities of death stuff please (all plastic)
Bring back the old Necromunda style bulkheads you can make 'em into anything (bulkheads and clip-in/push-in printed card stock)
More like cities of death, just easy on the skulls! (something comparable with Cities of death, but way less "proto gothic")
Clip together, clip apart boxes you can add detail too as required (a la Micro art studios and warmill)
I don't want more plastic terrain, I'm happy using cardboard packaging and my imagination

Thanks,

Which SM Legion you'd like to play in WH30k (or HH).
