That would be a genius tactic though. Make rumors and if they are false, claim they were a joke and if true, ask for a good rating

I think the claims of "greed" on the part of GW is stretching things slightly for that particular point.


I don't think profit is a bad thing, but if it comes alongside poor game design, then I think that's crazy.


Its when the quest for profits is the *cause* of bad game design....that makes babies cry...

Why do I feel that my Space Marine Deathwatch Army got a massive boost with the 'stuff the FOC' rule

yet.... even more dramatically...

Why do I feel that my Thousand Sons Army (x4 HQ Psykers, 2 Aspiring Sorcerers and x1 Be'Lakor Dataslate) have been utterly shafted by this new Psychic power thing?



So, my psychic powers card pack I bought is a relic to GW hubris I'm guessing, the 6th ed. rule book a fancy door stop and a 3K army is likely going to suffer from random psychic effects and a 'harsher' warp table... as if it wasn't dodgy enough already

Thousand Sons: 3850pts / Space Marines Deathwatch 5000pts / Dark Eldar Webway Corsairs 2000pts / Scrapheap Challenged Orks 1500pts / Black Death 1500pts

Saga: (Vikings, Normans, Anglo Danes, Irish, Scots, Late Romans, Huns and Anglo Saxons), Lion Rampant, Ronin: (Bushi x2, Sohei), Frostgrave: (Enchanter, Thaumaturge, Illusionist)

When I read about unbounded armies, I think this reflects my reaction:

Spoiler:







Its unbelieveable. While it may be fun in friendly games, everything else become worse than it already is. More riptides, more serpent, more helldrakes...

I still hope it will turn out as a nice add on and taking an unbounded army gives you a hard disadvantage so that it isnt just packing all OP Units into one list and steamroll your opponent... but I dont believe in GWs ability to fix their own game... Last hope is that somebody buys GW and fires all the idiots...

EDIT... even though I am exited for the new missions and psychic Phase, but this unbounded Thing... i think i just want to get green and go for a WAAAGH!!!

Sounds like a mystery to me. I mean you get an extra 1d6 warp charges (plus whatever Be'lakor gives you), meaning you can case those Warp charge 2 powers a lot easier.

GW exists as a company for the sole purpose of selling miniatures. I don't feel that it's unfair to them to say that EVERYTHING they do is pointed towards that goal.

It's not rumors, It's stated in the WD article.

Which doesn't give us a full look a the rumors meaning you're reacting on half-information.

It may be just the way I read it but I got the impression the likelihood of perils increased if you were not a Daemon (If you are not daemon spawn yourself the perils increase') - or how ever they wrote it. The Thousand Sons are all humans in my army (except Be'Lakor himself).

Add to that they stated you were more likely to suffer perils the more you use psychic powers - I already have enough perils as it is with my force blowing itself up (maybe that's just the cursed dice)

There are tons of other interesting games out there. Give them a try! You can enjoy 40k's setting in RPG, video games, novels and all that, continue to paint 40k's miniature, but get your fix of games with some better company .

According to the posted White Dwarf excerpt, it's everyone except Tyranids. Because reasons.

Because Daemons hate Tyranids because there is apparently no real soul to eat?

Sure, there are fluff reasons that Tyranids shouldn't be able to summon daemons. But there are equally valid fluff reasons for Eldar, various flavours of Marines and Orks to not do so. Making it a blanket 'Everyone except nids' is just silly.

I doubt the majority of Unbound armies will be worrying about capturing objectives, unless 7th removes the ability to automatically win by tabling your opponent.

Who said anything about excusing anyone for anything? I just think hearing the concept behind the rules isn't the same thing as hearing what the actual rules are and without the actual rules it's too soon to flip tables.

Worst case scenario I see people just house-ruling bans on Unbound armies outside of events or having your opponent's permission first.

Perhaps they cannot.

it's not impossible that Eldar, Loyal Space Marines, etc.. can only use the goody-two-shoes "Sanctic"-half of Daemonology.

Reacting is different than trolling. The one guy I called a troll was definitely doing the latter.

The very fact that the new "Summon Daemons all the time!" powers are split into two groups - the badly named good-guy power deck, and the bad-guy deck. Clearly Grey Knights and Marines won't get the bad guy deck.




And now you can bring an army of Land Raiders. Just consider that for a moment.
