What's the beef, brothers?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/552000/6046400.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/552000/6046400.page GMT
Some hate it, some like it.

Some say it won't hold up to the filth of Tau and Eldar.

It does now do well vs Drakespam from CSM.

Take a look in the Tactics section for some of the big discussion threads.

Plenty of stuff in there.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/552000/6046413.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/552000/6046413.page GMT Older units are either unchanged or received a points reduction without any major gameplay changes which in 6th edition makes them a little subpar.

My main gripe is just a lack of character for the different Legions and Warbands in the codex that I believe the Chapter Tactics rule applies to the Loyalist chapters and to an extent is present in the Dark Angels Codex (Inner Circle rule) and the Daemons Codex. It looks like attempts were made for at least flavour in the form of using the various Cult squads but as there are no Cult Terminators, Havocs, vehicles etc it doesn't feel like a full Cult army.

Even with the Black Legion supplement (Great fluff and extra missions) it was essentially just a selection of new wargear and a tweak to Chaos Terminators and Chosen. It's primary use at the moment is allow players to unlock an extra Heldrake which is a bit disappointing.

Really I'd just like to see what Vetock or even Ward could do with the rules or if they let Phil Kelly just go to town but I'm satisfying myself with some 30k gaming so I may be the wrong man to make suggestions.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/552000/6046433.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/552000/6046433.page GMT CSM codex, but then I've always liked CSM. And they made my Noise Marines better, for which I am eternally grateful.

There may be some grumbling about the new SM book because of the Chapter-specific special rules in it. We CSM players were hoping to see something similar for the Traitor Legions in our book, but didn't get it. That's about all I can think of. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/552000/6049631.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/552000/6049631.page GMT
