alright guys lets not get off topic, instead lets talk about The Codex.... i personally didnt like the last one.. nazghul were shoehorned in and i felt the rules for Muhammed Ali were almost deliberately making him non competetive

ugh, more broken cheese then. looks like it'll be shroudhammer 40K as predicted

hey I though Ali forged a great narative in game D: sure he was a bit over pointed but I still liked him

serious question, I wonder if The codex can allie with This codex?

Of course. They'll be Allies of Convenience.

ugh, but think of all the broken combos you can make with those. good thing it can't allie with That codex

Dang, have you seen the rules for Snooki? Totally broken, especially when combined with Justion Bieber's sonic attack.

I think Muhammed Ali is decent, but you have to build a list around him.

I hear Bruce Lee might be in it as a fast attack choice.

Yeah, his combo-strike ability is interesting but the lack of a decent invuln save is kind of a drag.

that would make a lot of sense and, I might be speaking out of term here, but it might make bikes playable

and Grey Templar, I think the meta might shift for that, I'm sensing an increase of heavy bolters to counter this threat

If thats the case we might see cheap HB devestators make a comeback. Although I doubt it will make HB dreadnoughts popular, too many points for the shots.

i personally use gandalf to counter the beiber- snookie star... his "shall not pass special rule" is perfect for shutting it down

If the rumors that Silvester Stallone is going to be an HQ choice are true then I'll call cheese.

good call but for armies like tau who cant allie with gandalf it's a bit more of a bother to deal with :/

and yeah, cheap HB units will be great against this and if termies are as good as they say then that many shots will really presure them. no one uses dreads anyway so it's not like that's new

Nah. If hulk hogan gained Eternal Warrior, then it would be cheese.

Yet another da thread and this one isn't even on topic.

You know we have one in n&r and one in 40k general, right?

I dunno, if they shift the points around I think they could make him work

that being said I prefer my games more hard fought than most so yeah, it might be best if he stays EW free

I don't think this thread ever had a defined topic, other than "The Codex"

yeah but those don't quite offer the in depth detail we're delving into here. you saw the first post right?

Firstly, this isn't a DA thread. It's a Codex: The Codex thread. Secondly, we are on topic. We are talking about the Codex.

The codex.

ummm....pretty sure the thread is titled "the codex" so it's pretty damn defined

There are two types of people, those that have seen the codex and those that have not.

Arn't you forgetting those who have seen the Codex and then Unseen what they have seen?

wait, maybe that’s why tgf was so brief with his description it was all he could put before becoming completely clay :O if you read it in a desperate, panicked voice through gritted teeth then it all adds up
