It's amazing! I'm so happy I play orks I can't even express it in words. I mean I didn't want a chariot pulled by two big squids for ghaz gull to ride in or anything. Or anew awesome flier. I mean who would want/get those things for their army.
Or a KillaKan/DefDread with a Storm Shield! Who'd want that? Stupid stuff, huh?

Horrible fluff. I mean of all the races in the galaxy to do something like that. It's no like we lost the ability to take certain hq's to make units troops while other races gained that ability.

Question for next month: I know we said no proxies for Lords of War, but I'll be repainting all my marines after this coming weekend, so I'd like to take the opportunity to play a fun iron hands list, and I've had my eye on the fellglaive for awhile. Problem is the fellglaive isn't 40k legal, only 30k. HOWEVER, it is the same chassis as the fellblade, which is BAO legal, th eonly difference is the turret. So would it be ok to run this:



as this:



Not gonna buy one if not as it would be a waste to buy a model I can't use.

Thanks guys.

If I blow it up, can I loot it?

And yaeh thats a very simple count as. Just make sure you tell the opponent the turret it different like 3 times before the game. And paint it nice. And no one will have any issues at GE

So much better looking. But just think of it in a splotchy red paint job and some kustum scrap plate modifications.....

The rules for 30k and 40k don't really mesh that well. FW states that pretty clearly in the HH books.

I would be completely opposed to the introduction of 30k to 40k events. I would be completely in favor of 30k specific events.

I had a last minute change to our Fantasy league schedule so I can't make the whole tournament. I can come in for the first round to play as a ringer if necessary. Either way I'll see you guys in the morning on Saturday.

I'll be doing Sons of Horus.... and possibly all primaries lol

30k definitely doesn't go with 40k in terms of marines. The tank just reminded of it because it is generally associated with 30k

Nope. Missed it.

There were the obligatory one or two d6 left overs (I'll be happy to give those back to owners, that's why I grabbed 'em), but no, Tim, I didn't see a back pack.

I take it that you already called and asked Lance, at the store?

Thank you, Travis and I worked for a week to find the right colors and the right steps. At 2.5 hours a figure, I am very happy with the results. Now to do 4 more drop pods, ouch.

Was a great tournament gents, had a blast using my new ridiculous army! Had some great games, great opponents and there was so much variety!

Thanks for the great time guys, Jay and I are very glad we switched groups to this one!

On a different note, Jay and I started a 40k podcast! If at all interested in that sort of thing, you should head over to partialarc.com and listen to the podcast "Roll to Seize" or just search "Roll to Seize" on itunes and you will find it.

Thanks!
