    A friend of mine told me that the Baneblade is going to be produced for regular retail, has anyone heard anything about this.

    The detail on the metal ones are higher, and can be very pretty, although at times they can also have excess junk from the mold left on them, I bought a set of Grey knights at one point and although they were beautiful models it took about two hours to cut off and buff off all the burrs, I finally sold them before painting them because I knew I'd never be able to actual do that intricate of a paint job on them much to my disappointment, that and trundling around metal models kills your back especially if you have huge amounts of them, although a mostly metal vindicator does make a handy weapon

    I'd have to agree, I've played BT, old and new D&D, Star Wars, and several other mini-systems, I've liked the GW stuff the most.

    I enjoy the modelling, and I do like the rules overall, the only real problem I've had is the way the codexes are set up and the way the main rule-book has a horrible index, and the hard to find lesser known rules in said main rule book., I may just be a glutton for punishment and maybe it could be I like long involved battles, heh, I do wish that it was longer than six rounds some times. And I wasn't trying to be rude earlier if it came off as that I apologize.

    No offense guys but this thread was supposed to be about discussing 40k and different strategies, paint schemes, etc. not bash it.
  6. briscojr84
    Those are just fan creations, there was another thread floating around somewhere two or three months ago listing these along with tons of others.

    That is a pretty nice scheme, my friend went with a gore red and silver scheme with some black and gold detailing. I don't know what point size of games you are playing but we usually manage to squeeze two-three 2000 point games in about 4-6 hours. I didn't really like the way the war machine figures looked, I like the 40K stuff especially the tanks, although I think they need to ditch the IGuards rough riders and replace them with dirtbikes or scout cars. As for color schemes my Iron warriors are the standard boltgun, and gold, my piddling amount of space marines [although I did splurge on a whirlwind and land raider crusader, and there for awhile I bought like ten rhinos for five bucks a pop off of people] are a dwarf bronze with the command level having a really dark green, sgts with a really dark purple and everyone else having gore red detail. My IGuard is black with grey and gold detailing, my tau are black with dark angels green, camo green, and dwarf bronze, my eldar are going to be bleached bone with scorched brown, and shadow grey detailing. Actually if you go to the main page of my website there is a link for our gaming group, just about everybody has expanded from that though, I need to add new pictures.

    My friends having the same problem with his black templars, he' finally decided to try doing about twelve layers of watered down black/gray, although with his new baby he hasn't had much chance to get started, heh the major complaint from most of the others at the moment is the way the codexes and main rule book are set up.

    Necron - 99, My one friend plays Necrons, they are the scourge of my Iron Warriors, ugh, what kind of paint scheme did you have. Elint Seeker - Both good picks, unfortunately we don't have anyone that plays either at the moment, we just restarted our Warhammer 40k a couple of weeks ago, we have Necrons, Plain Old Space Marines, World Eaters, and my Iron Warriors that I mainly play, but the guy who plays the space marines is working on a new dark eldar army and I've got a 2500 point IG army myself with Tau, Eldar, and one squad of Space Marines I'm working on. How was your guys experience with WH40K, the goods and the bads, did you play in any actual tournaments or casual play. Any Tips for speeding the game up. What point sizes do you prefer. If you guys are ever in the Mansfield, Ohio area let me know, we can knock together a game or something.

    Any Warhammer 40K Players on here.
  12. briscojr84
    No unfortunately not, it's one of the books I've been looking for.
  13. briscojr84
    I think it's actually from the DYRL? Game.

    Well if you haven't figured out Cowboy Bebop [don't know if you have seen it or not], Bebop is the name of the ship and bounty hunters are called Cowboys.

    Heh, the official term is five color crack, I worked [more like kept it in business] in a comic and gaming shop for three years, and if I had a penny for every ten bucks that was dropped I'd have twenty years worth of warhammer stuff to put together. And what really annoyed me about the magic players, we'd have d20 or D&D once a week and they had around 4-5 tournaments a week and had the gall to b*tch about us taking up table space.

    Only if they are reprinted in a currently legal set, and I understand the griping about $30-40 dollar thing, I have a four shelf book-shelf crammed with 3rd and 3.5 stuff myself. It just seems wizards is shooting themselves in the foot on several fronts.

    Now that I think about it now since I haven't read much of the series lately, missile pods ala the Honor Harrington series would be more feasible.
  18. briscojr84
    I can't blame people for complaining, Wizards keeps doing really stupid stuff, they've canceled at least one D20 book that people wanted, pretty much ignores d20 for the last year or so, are going to start putting out four sets of magic a year instead of three and now are changing the D&D format again.
  19. briscojr84
    Go a step further fold capable missiles, at least on the capitol ships anyway, since most of those things are almost the size of a valk.

    Roy does have a bit of a point, with feats, skills, and abilities it does some time get cumbersome, I'm just glad they ditched THAC0 for 3rd.
  21. briscojr84
    Word of advice stay away from Ohio then. You'll want to kill any of those guys if you ever meet them.
  22. briscojr84
    Thanks for the info.
  23. briscojr84
    Hey 1st BRD, any word on if they are redoing d20 Modern, Future etc. as well or just the D&D stuff.

    These are the only pics that I have. http://www.un-spacy-qmtdb.com/uns/Uniforms...0Suits/2012.htm

    The newest incredible hulk, gamma irradiated poodles and pit bulls. Blech. Ultraviolet. AVP. All the resident evil movies. Oh, almost forgot Starship Troopers 2.
