It's left-over thinking from the Tac/Dev/Assault boxes. Buy a Dev and a Tac and you'll have all the heavy weapons you'll ever need to proxy all the Lascannons that you actually want. Buy an Assault squad box to build cheaper Vanguard Vets and no matter what you arm them with you'll have a ton of weapons left over for equiping Sergeants.

If you have a bits-box already you should be able to handle equiping Intercessor Sergeants. Kind of stinks if you don't.

So should they:
A. Include every bit you could possibly use to kit out your squad in the kit - meaning a 10man Tac box includes:
10x:
-Boltguns
-Pistols
-CCW
-Krak Grenades
-Frag Grenades
2x:
-PGs
-MGs
-GGs
-Flamers
-Lascannons
-GravCannons
-Missile Launchers
-Plasma Cannons
-Heavy Bolters
-Heavy Flamers
-Combi PGs
-Combi GGs
-Combi MGs
-Combi Flamers
-Storm Bolters
-Melta Bombs
-Grav Pistols
-Plasma Pistols
-Inferno Pistols
-Hand Flamers
-Power Swords
-Power Axes
-Power Mauls
-Power Fists
-Lightning Claws
-Chainswords
-Thunder Hammers

Which would probably cost a *lot* more than the current kit...

B. Reduce options down to what's on-sprue. So limited Heavy weapons on a Tac squad. Devs can only have 1-2 of any given heavy weapon. Captains/ChapterMasters can only have a couple different weapons options. And those on jetpacks/bikes have fewer still.

C. Allow people who own more than one kit to use both kits together.

I, for one, don't want to be told I can't field my Relic Blade/Combi-Melta Captain on foot, just because GW doesn't *currently* sell *that specific loadout*. And, before you call me hysterical, GW does that for Autarchs.

More options in-kit, though, would be great.

Chaos Terminators are a good example of bad. Can’t even make the DEFAULT load out with the box.

How can store managers tell you to buy more boxes to make a basic squad, or to buy FW upgrade kits to make base squads then. Or be asked, "Why would you want to run base squads?" all have happened.

Does it really matter if the put a hand flamer in the box or not?


You guys are all racing past the best goodie from the sheet. Anyone else looking forward to the debate over what "Every model may be equipped with 1 XXXX bolt rifle instead of 1 bolt rifle." Does this mean you do every model at once and have uniform loads? Does this mean every model can mix and match? New phrasing, new argument.

that is why bits sites are so popular, get some counts as for the things GW left out. alternatively 3d print your own. I know that is what I end up often doing.


I know, it's just, common. Through me a fricking bone here. Is it really too much to ask for them to throw in a correct weapons spru on their 60 dollar box of plastic? It was the most disheartening thing ever as a new player to buy the Grey Knights Paladin box, and not even have the ability to make the load out the rules in the box said I could. Imagine if LEGGO came out with their models that required you buy several unrelated boxes of leggos in order to correctly build the thing you bought in the first place.


oh I totally get that. GW SHOULD at what they charge include every possible layout, but they never wiil. I am convinced in the GW world they figure is a person wants say 5 of a weapon for a squad that can take 5 but onyl 1 comes in the box that most people will buy 5 boxes.


Exactly right. I remember bitching about not having enough plasma rifles to kit out a command squad for when I used to run Scions. The GW rep literally said "We want you to buy at least 3 more kits. So we don't put them in the box."

Blew me away. Then the icing on the cake was that GW doesn't allow parts swapping in their stores.

You must have a crap manager. My local GW manager has bits boxes people can raid freely-the only requirement is you put an approximately equal amount of bits back in for whatever you take,

And bits trading is 100% okay in his store.

I think one of our stores has that. I've never actually found the bits I wanted though, but apparently someone has been able to assemble an entire Leman Russ Tank by collecting discarded bits.

I won't say he was crap, I didn't know him. I do know he toed the company line pretty hard, and won best in state a few times for sales records. (Caveat, there are only 3 approved GW reps in my state).

He refused to allow molds, non GW parts, Bits swapping, or printed models. You wanted to play in his store, you had to buy it from him. Which is a stance you take when you care more about the sale then the customer. But I can't judge. He was successful.

I did paint my guard once in the shop, an entire kit, before he noticed I was using my personal brushes, and a non-GW wash. He let me finish for the day and offer to sell me better brushes.

Only half-agree. Each army having a few captains flying around is dumb. True. But having fancy melee weapons should allow you to damage at least some war machines. Thunder Hammers damaging Knights is fine. I even encourage it.

No, because they are getting into restricting model loadouts. Smash capt would just be a good outcome of the policy.

I don't think thunder hammers are something regular infantry should be able to wield. Even marines.

Have you seen the dawn of war 3 cinematic? This is the image I get in my head when a smash captain 1 shots a knight....I'm just like...this game sucks...Not only does it not make fluff sense. It makes 0 sense for 130 point units to 1 shot 600 point 1's.

To be fair, it's 130 point Warlord with 4+ CP spent.

Not saying they're balanced, but there's more than just points going in.

And moreover, what do my Nurgle Daemons get to fight Knights with if infantry can't touch them?

I said melle...Mainly because just getting that close to an absurdly large unit to hit it with a hammer would likely kill you. Plus if they step on you that storm shield isn't going to do a dang thing.

I consider CP free - because they are.

Though not actually complaining about BA - because they are a pretty bad army. However the +1 to wound army trait is pure insanity.

How many of your nurgling can the knight kill in 1 turn? Like 40 points worth? Hed need 11 turns to make his points back - in a 6 turn max game. You win just by existing. Plus you have Daemon prince...which appears to be something like 5x larger than a marine captain. Not to mention his ability to do mortal wounds. He should be able to fight a knight is what I am saying.

Yes, that's fun gameplay. "Sit back and hope you score enough points while you get slaughtered with no way of attacking the big thing."

And a Daemon Prince, with Virulent Blessing AND a Poxbringer, does...

7 attacks
245/36 hits
245/54 wounds
245/81 unsaved, at damage 2 (3s, 4s), 3 (5s), and 6 (6s).
9.83 damage on average.

What does the Knight do? Well let's see!

4 attacks
8/3 hits
20/9 wounds
40/27 unsaved
8.89 damage from the big boy weapon, or not enough to kill through FNP.

or...

12 attacks
8 hits
16/3 wounds
32/9 unsaved
7.11 damage.

So, in close combat only, a Knight will probably fail to kill my prince. (Unless they're a gallant, with an extra attack and better WS.) But then they can fall back and shoot him to hell.

Hardly. It's a suicide trait on an army with terrible model count. It's the worst marine trait imo.
