I'm still trying to find a way to convince my gf to play this with me. Just one thing in my way is that she doesn't play 40K.

I did this with Soul Caliber/Mortal Kombat with a

buddy of mine and her best friend. It was a very good night.

Never tried it with 40k. Alas, she has a bf now, so no more options at those nights...

Not sure if it's been said:

"Hmm...One punisher should be enough. There's not that many tyranids on the board."

Hey guys do you mind if my girlfriend sits next to me and helps reference rule questions?

Tau are a competitive army.
Arco Flaggellants are worth the points.
x special character was a good choice.
The Stormraven is such a pretty model.

They do appear on occasion. By occasion I mean about as frequently as Haley's Comet.

My wife actually has come up with a couple of the designs of my terrain boards that I have in my gallery. Specifically my forest.

Yep it is great, very enjoyable. Not the most balanced but not nearly as bad as people think imo, I would like to see the terrain used by those claiming it's low tier etc. Also it is fun to beat people using a codex with such a low reputation.

Ah, you're still playing 5e I see

Flamers and Screamers are not worth the points (obviously this is after WD update)

**Selym**

I have an actual strategy!

**Requiem**

How about:
"No man, it's totally cool to roll some dice, check out the results and then decide what you were rolling for."

"No I agree, let us forget about this rule you should've known about for just this game, and play the rule you think would work best!"

"Oh man your dice fell on the floor? Better check the results, then decide whether or not to re-roll!"

"Yeah I'll believe you when you say you rolled all those dice without anyone seeing, and without anything failing!" xD

**sierra 1247**

"what, you forgot your dice today? tell you what, how about we remove casualtys with this air rifle instead?"

Yeah, I agree. It's a badly written codex, but it's not hopeless. It can still be strong; it can be easily hosed out the meta, but at the same time it can come up with some very strong lists that are hard to beat unless you're using IG, DE or GK.

I think 6th has made the melee-oriented little bugs (except Ymgarls) really, really bad, but made the ranged little bugs and the Monstrous Creatures better. Especially the "Dakka Flyrant," which is definitely one of the better units in the game right now.

"The new CSM codex is overpowered"

Ive heard this one in real life...
