I've seen the older Rules suggestions for 12 inches in each opposite corner, and holding anything undeployable in Reserves.

I will be running a First Game demo for a co-worker on my Kitchen Table-hammer 40,000 board. Would playing the Corners be a good start, or should I make it easier and play a 12 inch deployment from table half? He is runnino Tyranids, so might have a hard time deploying the 12" bubble.

Any other tips and suggestions for this sized game? He has been watching Battle reports, so he's not a complete noob, but this is the first time playing his army.

The points value will be from 500 to 750.

Since it's his first game I would suggest keeping it as simple as possible. Standard Dawn of War deployment 12" from the centre is good. And it gets the action going right away.

I would even set up the table before he arrives. Let him choose his table edge.

Keep his attention focused on playing the game, learning the basic mechanics and having fun. Worry about the extra rules like deployment, objectives, pre-game set up and the like for when he has a better handle on the basics.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/673873/8329259.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/673873/8329259.page GMT
