Interests
Besides 40k, I'm a sci-fi fanatic. If you haven't guessed from my user name, I'm a BIG fan of the Dune series of books!
Perhaps unsurprisingly, I'm into video gaming and board games. RPGs, Final Fantasy and Borderlands in particular, are my absolute favourites.
My main ambition is to one day become a successful writer/novelist. I am always working on a writing project of some sort or another at any one time.
Love flims and reading too. -

Oh, where would someone be able to find such a nefarious thing that I totally don't support? So what is broken about it?

Custodes Rumours

Since bolters are S6, it don't seem too bad to be so high a toughness value. Still, why is Nintendo involved at all. -

I don't do any calibration. It does it automatically and the results are superb. -

Oh it's needlessly messy. A simple line could have covered all of it. -

Necromunda New Edition

That is exactly the way it works. They can't be given heavy or paired weapons, but no rules against them actually using them. The mount has the weapon therefore they get to use it that way. As for the quad, the rules cover the additional crew member by making the weapon, harpoon or heavy bolter, Independent. So there isn't actually another crew member in the rules. He's just an independent weapon system. -

Oh that's OK, because the mounted fighter hasn't been equipped with a heavy or paired weapon. Instead, the weapons are with the mount. You've not equipped the fighter. Best way to see it is if you made a fighter card for each choice, the one without wouldn't retain the Cutter or Quad weapons. The issue of firing a heavy weapon is still there for what I can see though, which hurts the quad heavy bolter somewhat? It is independent so maybe I'll look deeper into that. Cutter heavy stubber though... definitely not being fired unless I've missed something? -

I'm not gonna lie, many moons ago in a different edition lost to time, I detailed how I felt the range of stats should never have been limited to just wounds and big weapons. Even when vehicles started shifting up too. A wider range, like T6 Marines, means there could be room for a T4 human, T5 Orks, T3 Eldar etc. In the post 8th edition ruleset, I'm totally in favour of this. It would be a way of differentiating between models and units without endless special rules. Of course GW have kept a unique special rule per unit trend alongside it, which is a different discussion, but I still enjoy the range of stats.

Lol the Q&A: "We always meant to make these units as Legends, we just haven't yet and introduced Proxies to be replaced soon." Sure, always meant to. That's not backtracking at all. After all, making Legendary Proxies that will be obsolete soon because you're making Legends datasheets anyway was always the plan right? And certainly couldn't spend the time making Tactical Marines Legends when we have to prioritise the Hammerfall Bunker.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, except Tau. Their little blue heads are gross. And I'm not even talking about the miniatures. Just Xenos. -

Indeed, there's variance. There's variance out of 3D printed stuff as well. But to say 3D printed stuff is inferior is just wrong.
