Our codex is so bad that you should let all the CSM players do exactly that. We have competitive list building potential but only if we know in advance what we're up against.

And even then, only if the enemy army involves a lot of high-cost 3+ save units that aren't taking transports.

He wasn't playing CSM, otherwise sure. He asked if I had any AA, I said an Aegis Line with a Quad Gun and a Nephilim Jetfighter. This proceeds to write up a list with 2 Storm Ravens, 3 Stormtalons, Chapter Master loaded up, veterans, and 3 Land Speeder Storms with shotgun Scouts. I never played him again. I saw him once after like 6 months. Everyone at the store thinks he's a tool because he's a in and outside the game. I hope someone eventually punches him out.

How he has a wife I have no cue.

The best games are ones where the lists are relatively close in power. If list 1 is WAY more powerful than list 2, it's likely not going to be much fun for whoever is playing list 2. So, if you want the best game, you both have to take into account what the other guy has, and try and make sure the lists are relatively balanced. It's not perfect, but 40k has such a massive power range at the moment there's little else you can do!

He has an army which are the worst in the game right now, and it's the worst possible build of that army. You took an army which is by no means top-tier, but still significantly more powerful. Since we don't reveal our lists until the last minute, this is bound to happen sometimes, but if you're regular opponents, know what models the other owns, and you want a close, fun game, just bear that in mind.

My friend has an all-Hellion DE list. The latest book really nerfed Hellions, so it's not a good list now. When I play him, I'm not sure EXACTLY what I'm bringing, but I know enough to know that if I take a competitive Tau list, it won't be a fun game for either of us!!

He said guy loaded up with space marine stuff. So he wasent playing with csm.

He also asked before hand about anti air. Then proceeded to load up the air power when it was favorable.

Then he loses and calls the other guy "rude" and broken?

Guys a douche, a sore looser and nothing else. Had he pulled that stunt on me, or anyone in my gaming circle he Likley would have ended up having a storm raven suppository.

Guys like that get 1 game in with someone. Then everyone catches on and he finds out no one wants to play. How he convinced someone else to breed with him I have no idea.
