  1. I’d buy digital copies in a heartbeat for 20-30. For metro reading
  2. No, and that not what I said. A Kroot using a simple weapon swap and a knife swap, for most folks wouldn’t raise an eyebrow. Because despite not being a kroot rifle, the options avaliable to Kroot Carnivore squads in terms of “cool” weapons are known. Every art or set piece of those units is just duders with guns. And then as I said, I no longer need to fess over what gimmick power weapon to give my guys because they are all the same. And case of Phobos, you have a lot of customization. Ace has down Incursor-Infilitrator hybrids because how interchangable their appearance and loadouts for example. You could have one guy with a Firstborn Bolter holding a combat knife and it wouldn’t be out of place (my own infilitrators used the classic BT Upgrade Sprew Bolters instead of the Phobos ones). Its not matter of needing to know its matter of needing to recgonize. You seeing a set of 5 tacticus armored marines with chainsword and bolt pistols says “that an assault cessor squad”. If one duder has a weird looking melee weapon that not a hammer or fist, that most likely a power weapon and so on.
  3. I mean sure but look at the example I used. Kroot Carnivores, if I swap his Kroot Rifle bit for say a catachan lasgun with a knife or a specific example I did. Was I used a HotShotLas and a Gaurd Sword for one of my Kroot. Something that most folks wouldn’t take a second look at. But for marines atleast, I see sometbing :cuss: Intercessor, simplification as a great example of reducing 3 BoltRifle types down to 1. So I xan use the ABR bit because its mh favorite even if the unit something more like a backfield obj holder. And the other classic marine js the “Power Weapon” Diversity. I can use any power weapon I want aethesricallg and not worry which one is marginally better than the other
  4. What Moger is getting at, is that there is no longer a need to have the “This guy is actually this” convo before game. And I said this before, as an example. If my SM Captain has only 1 legal loadout I can give them whatever I want and there only 1 legal loadout, there will never be confusion. Its one of the most freeing aspects of my mono kroot army. There is basically zero choice in wargear for almost every unit. Meaning I can go utterly insane with how I model a kroot. Sense a Carnivore always just be a duder with a kroot rifle in the rules
  5. Don’t take title as flamebait, I like 40k, I enjoy it, and on a theory level I like aspects of 10th. Through by and large I’d rather playing 9th if I played a game, not for any particular favoritism mostly just I haven’t played and 10th too much relearning despite waiting for 10th. Because I didn’t want to relearn. For me however my frustration, is that I feel like I barely get time to use my minis and rules. Before “its an exciting new time! New edition!” And there is the waiting for codex. Sometimes for most of the edition cycle then “New Edition”. Like am I only one who rather 4-5 year cycles then 3 year ones? I left MtG because Rotation. Albeit that was 1 vs 3 years. But we have 6 months updates now. Its just too much. Even if I understand the top dog wanting to get batted. But like at some point, there is always gonna be a top dog. I am just failingn to word. And apologize this hecame a vent
  6. And generally speaking all universal “superior” weapons aren’t actually all universally surperior. Give all you guys Lascannons. I have my black tide and be quite happy you did just that. Really whay I am actually hearing. Is that GW shoulf hiven “Naked” Squad Cost and “Upgraded” squad cost. My 2 cents.
  7. I mean hitting on 3’s vs hitting on 4’s a tbing + Bolt Weaponry has more supporting abilities (or will come codex maybe).
  8. My only 2 cents: This is why I love mono loadouts. I can give my characterbro an awesome ax or thammer and it doesn’t matter. Sense he only has 1 loadout.
  9. Would like to point out back in my day; Lascannon, Meltas etc, all functionally needed 5 & 6 to wound/pen big vehicles. The solution was weapon spam. Its why suicide stern, fire dragons etc. I note this because alot of folks kept asking for T increase for tanks (and Monster) without the S increase for their weapons. So like in a senss return to form was entirely predictable
  10. Well Mohawk ironically alot of the higher end competitive players don’t do that. 1) They have one army they stick with. To a lesser or greater degree. And still do well 2) They have such a large collection from before they became competitive or just from playing the game for so long. They swap what models they use
  11. Honestly if Carnivores hadn’t lost Battleline, I’d be reasonablt feeking Kroot would been pretty well off but :(
  12. I’ll remind folks, Combi-Bolter were a tbing in 9th too. Certain terminator aquad had them. Combi-(X) were different. Its plausible that that this is referring to the Combi-Bolter.
  13. Just to mention this, is that they IG us rules wise. Or that my fear anyways where anyone can take aby UU and doesn’t neccesarily lose/gain anytning
  14. You know what EXACTLY happened when doctrines got introduced? (To be clear agreeing with your post). And why through a culmination of events, why armor of contempt happened?
