Stereotypical Villain
Arcane
Original Warhammer was always better than 40k... Not that I bothered to check if they fucked that up too, mind you! Please say it isn't so...
Realms of Chaos are extremely expensive. Rogue Trader has entered the realm of collectors-only.INSTEAD, you could just pick and choose your rules (from the decades of solid tabletop rulesets available) and support the amateur retailers selling fresh castings of fantastic old figures for dirt cheap. If you (like so many poorly afflicted individuals) can only get your dick up for blood-for-the-blood-god-40k, then just get a hold of the old Rogue Trader books, since the setting is practically unchanged since Realm of Chaos, they just switched focus to their retarded gang of identikit 'special characters'.
Sounds to me like groke is advocating piracy of both game books and miniatures....Realms of Chaos are extremely expensive.

Have you tried playing Laserburn?As for miniatures, I do mean fresh castings, not recasts.

I don't think I will ever understand Warhammer. Everybody does their own shit with it. I've seen huge battlefields with several armies, I've seen tournament kids go head to head with smaller armies on what seems to be pretty plain battlefields. Rules seem nonexistent, extremely inconsistent or just really weird.
For most people it seems to be all about either collecting and painting figures, or reading shitty fiction. I barely see people actually playing it.
I mean looking at these pictures

How do you determine what you can actually do? Do you use rulers? "You may move 5 cms" or what? How do you determine turns? Do you destroy environments or what's the purpose of walls?

Go to Bolter & Chainsword and post incessantly in threads for people to tell what the BEST ARMY EVAR is until someone unloads a flavour-of-the-month min-maxxed atrocity, then complain at your parents until they drop a grand on buying every item on said army list. Then halfassedly glue the army together, go to a tourney with your unpainted grey hordes, lose repeatedly while screaming abuse at your opponents and calling an organiser over every 5 minutes to aggressively defend your flawed interpretation of the rules, go home, hock the army on ebay, and wait for the next Space Marine codex (i.e. 4 months) to start the cycle again.
Now you're Warhammering like a pro!!
root said:I wonder how Black Library is doing, tho? They churn out tons of new stuff every year, most of it bad (though not all) and it seems to hit the top 25 reading lists quite often around the world.
From what I remember, it's Black Library who's keeping GW alive.itz funny cuz it would take GW to go out of business and their mini lines discontinued to justify the collector prices they're asking for them nowadays
