Would you still play 40k if your favorite faction was removed? Squatted? Never included in rules, never given new models, and GW pretends that they no longer exist?

Would you move to your second-favorite faction and build on that instead? Would there still be enough appeal in 40k for you to continue with a different faction, or would the loss of your favorite faction be irredeemable? ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/798898/11144157.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/798898/11144157.page GMT Would You Play 40k if Your Favorite Faction Was Removed? 40k is that it's what I can play-there's no wargaming community by me except at GW.

But if you meant deleted from the fluff, I dunno. I think they are all so integral to the main fluff you can't really lose one. I mean, maybe Tau or Custodes, because neither really factor into the grand scheme of things that much. Custodes are just bigger stronger Astartes, and Tau are such a fledgling race as to not really factor in much.

I guess GSC are kinda pointless as well as a playable faction.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/798898/11144163.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/798898/11144163.page GMT Would You Play 40k if Your Favorite Faction Was Removed?
Only Sisters stopped me from quitting when GSC were lost.
Being ignored and marginalized didn't stop me from playing in 4th or 5th.
6th's WD dex killed 6th and 7th.
It was GSC who brought me back at the tag end of 7th- never got the chance to play or even buy the BRB.
Sisters + GSC kept me through 8th- Indexes helped.
Crusade convinced me to buy into 9th rather than just keep playing 8th for the rest of my life.

If they squatted either of my armies, that would require a 10th edition- unless there's a nasty surprise on the way and the GSC don't get a 9th dex.
It won't even take losing a faction- if there's a tenth edition, I'm done- by which I mean I'll keep playing 9th ed Crusade for the rest of my life.

If a friend bought 10th ed books I could use, I'd try it. But I'm never buying into a new edition.
I can't even think of what they could do to change my mind. It wouldn't be one thing- they'd have to:
a) keep crusade
b) release Crusade content for all armies within the first 3 months and
c) commit to continued support for Sisters, GSC, the Inquisition and all its Chambers militant and
d) the unexpected thing that I can't yet foresee.


Actually, I figured it out: if they don't give us Emperor's Children in 9th, but they announce that they're doing it in tenth AND they do the other three things listed above, that might keep me. Maybe.

I play custodes because I don't make enough to buy 50 boxes of different models and I am not a good enough painter to win any awards, plus I suck at the game. So if they deleted Custodes I would likely stop playing as there are no cheaper armies than Custodes unless you count knights.

Even if they wiped out my chapter for lore reasons, I could still play them as generic marines. My main army is Ultramarines. And I’m not sticking with just firstborn, but adding primaris. If they nuked the Ultras, I’d be a little torqued, but headcannon is a flexible thing, and Space Marines are rooted in the game. If I lost all the options to play Marines, the game would be Warhammer in name only. Space marines are such a core part of the game, they can never be entirely removed.

I do enjoy my Tyranid and Eldar forces. If Ultras were off the table, I’d still probably play with my secondary armies. Or spend more time working on my undead for AoS. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/798898/11144196.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/798898/11144196.page GMT Would You Play 40k if Your Favorite Faction Was Removed? 40k according to current/official rules anymore, because all my favorite stuff has already been removed.

Fortunately, since what draws me to an army are the cool models, not the lore or even the rules, my tastes range all over the spectrum concerning 40k (and Sigmar). And I've been doing this for ages - so I've got a shelf full of armies & only a finite amount of time to play any of them in a week... thus swapping something out is never a problem.

In fact I'd already proxied my firstborn Space Wolves into Adepta Sororitas multiple times already .

I definitely won't buy another army just to keep playing, because I somehow feel forced to do it. I may buy a new army because I like it though. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/798898/11144323.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/798898/11144323.page GMT Would You Play 40k if Your Favorite Faction Was Removed? GW inspired game.

I used to have a small Squat army and I remember being disappointed that they didn't have any rules in 3e. So it's happened to me before, but I didn't stop playing, I just moved to my second favourite faction, the Orks!

I like most of the factions in 40K anyway. So if they removed Orks I'd be pretty sad and annoyed, but if the game was fun I'd still play it with some of my other models while still using my orks in other games they fit into.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/798898/11144330.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/798898/11144330.page GMT Would You Play 40k if Your Favorite Faction Was Removed?

I already was teetering on the edge of stopping to play during 6th and 7th. the only reason i still did was because R&H... which now in essence are reduced to a single entry in the CSM book...

CSM themselves being my second fav army have a long history of basically sucking by design. Atleast ever since 4th edition, but it became even more egregious during 8th.
Especially after Faith and Fury in which basically all legions got a much deserved update, only to be hamstrung via having only 1 warlord trait for most legions accessible, being vastly imbalanced internally, but it also fell into the time were loyalists got shovelware galore of higher quality.Meanwhile in the same book you had the same content for 5 traitor legions page wise stappled to Black templars supplementary within it.... 5 legions get the same content as one loyalist chapter....

Iow, basically i felt like a second class custommer, the ruleset isn't really enticing anymore, GW already bloated the 9th with first day DLC ontop of dexes..
So yes i stpped playing more or less.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/798898/11144333.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/798898/11144333.page GMT Would You Play 40k if Your Favorite Faction Was Removed?

Ultimately it was core rules changes more than faction changes that drove players away, and have so far continued to stall out efforts at a revival.

I loved Corsairs. In 7th, I saw them as Dark Eldar: Good Version. Because they were everything I wanted Dark Eldar to be. They had actual options, they had thematic choices, they had great variety, and they actually felt fast and nimble on the table.

And then 8th removed them as an army. And tragically none of the options or creativity ever made it into the Dark Eldar book.

So once again I'm back playing Dark Eldar: Wargear Options Are For Proper Factions. If they were to be deleted too (something GW has certainly been working towards) then I imagine my already tenuous interest in the game would drop away entirely. Just as my interest in AoS vanished with the axing of my faction.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/798898/11144471.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/798898/11144471.page GMT Would You Play 40k if Your Favorite Faction Was Removed?
Honestly, there are more factions out there that I like enough to want to collect at some point than I have the funds or the time to actually do it.

But I'm not a single faction person when it comes to 40K. There is too much interesting about the universe to be locked in to one army.

Right now, its mostly the cost of getting back in to the game along with just their crappy rule-writing that prevents me from getting back in.

I primarily play a Chaos Knights household these days (unfortunately a faction that many would like to see removed). I do so for two main reasons:

1 - Cost. I can purchase a Knight for around £60. At times (Renegades box set for instance), around £40. Given that a Knight is generally between 400-500 points, they represent arguably the cheapest army option in 40K. I don't have an income that would allow me to field a full army from another faction easily.

2 - The models. I'm mostly a hobbyist and painter, and these models allow me the canvas to engage in the aspects of the hobby I most enjoy. Especially in terms of freehand painting and similar experimentation.

I really do understand the skew that armies like mine cause, and the hate they've gotten at times. But do spare a thought for those of us that enjoy them and are willing to be reasonable about how they're fielded - we're part of the hobby too ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/798898/11144908.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/798898/11144908.page GMT Would You Play 40k if Your Favorite Faction Was Removed?

As one of the newest factions I think it's very unlikely Chaos Knights would be squatted. I field a less skew list than most too, with two titanic knights and six war dogs. The suggestion that it's a less expensive faction per point didn't ring true to me, so I worked it out for my armies. If you use RRP for comparison, my Chaos Knights work out at £0.18/pt and my Ultramarines work out at £0.15/pt. Even if you take into account that I bought one of my titanic knights for half price on eBay (everything else was either 20% off from independent stores, or, in the case of a couple of my Ultramarines units, full price from GW) it works out about the same.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/798898/11144961.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/798898/11144961.page GMT Re:Would You Play 40k if Your Favorite Faction Was Removed?

You could be right these days, Primaris kit cost and points cost will have changed the landscape since I started collecting my Knights in 7th certainly.

The major other point is options available. Knights having so few units, it's relatively easy to have a little bit of everything you might want in a given list on hand, and at a reasonable cost over time.

My favourites are Tyranids and Eldar so I would rage quit if outright removed, but if they were reimagined in an AoS way - much like wood elves were essentially replaced with the Sylvaneth - then I could totally dig that.

I play Orks and Orks are the joy of 40k. Their comedy and attitude is why I play. If GW killed off Orks they would loose a player of over 30 years.


Not an Ork player, but 40K without Orks is like He-Man without Skeletor. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/798898/11145241.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/798898/11145241.page GMT Would You Play 40k if Your Favorite Faction Was Removed?

If they got rid of craftworld Eldar it'd be over for me. I collected them 15 years ago, and I could see myself collecting them another 15 years from now. GWs myriad space marine options won't keep me around.


that's funny, 15 years ago I looked at eldar and decided that while I liked the concept, they looked super outdated in the mini range and were reallly old and ugly and didn't look anything at all like the agile space elves from dawn of war.

And now youre still collecting the same exact unchanged model range that I turned my nose up at! Thanks, GW! I could have birthed a child and Tiger Woods style raised him from the age of four specifically to sculpt me new eldar miniatures in the time it has taken you, a billion dollar company with a gigantic miniatures factory, to update one of your flagship factions for the new millennium.


I don't know. Given how much I don't like anything that they are currently rolling out, I would give them an at best a hit or miss on any new updates to Eldar. But I guess each to their own.

To answer the OP, as the new models become unappealing to me more and more over the past five years, the more that I am no longer collecting their miniatures. I for one have no problem playing an older edition of the game or a whole different game all together once they squat all of the armies that I like to collect. They always said that they were a model company first, well when their models become crap, that is when I start to look for greener pastures. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/798898/11147314.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/798898/11147314.page GMT Re:Would You Play 40k if Your Favorite Faction Was Removed? 40k.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/798898/11161821.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/798898/11161821.page GMT
