NEW warhammer thread

[Eradius Lore]

still easy to kill, 1 grey knight should be enough

[Azash]

you wouldn't get close! do you think you can take three mind wars! or even at least five witch blades.

[Eradius Lore]

you underestimate my POWER!!

[Azash]

and you overestimate yourself.

i personally think that most of the new rules are better but some are pretty stupid, like you are only allowed to attck the closest unit to you. what about the tau, what are they going to do,
Oh look a squad of genestealers 12" away, and a carnifex 24" away, I have a rail gun, if i were to shoot the genestealrs then i would save myself, but let the carnifex destroy my ethereal, but if i destroy the carnifex we win.
(tau shoots genestealers). Tau lose the game

[Eradius Lore]

your arrogance blinds you!

Smilie posts removed - this is a thread about 40k, thanks.

What do you think is the hardest tactic to master from any army?

[Azash]

I would say the necron phalanx is probably the hardest, for the simple reason that everone has to be in the correct place, if a single unit isn't there when its needed, thren the whole thing falls apart, spelling certain doom for the necrons.

[Eradius Lore]

then its a bit of a pointless tactic

[killerbob]

Just because it realies on every thing being in the correct postion doesn't mean it's pointless.

[Azash]

correct killerbob, if its used properly then it makes a very formidible defense. Also it could be used for offense but not as effectively

[Eradius Lore]

yeah but its nearly imposible for the enemy side to set up exactly how it needs to be for this tactic to work, as you said yourself "if a single unit isn't there when its needed, thren the whole thing falls apart, spelling certain doom for the necrons." the odds that the enemy would not be in the correct possisions are astrinomical. Even a corellian would listen to those kind of odds. thus the tactic is pointless.

[Eradius Lore]

have any of you heard about the game being made 3d? by 2010 the game should have incoperated battlefield gothic into 40k. and the battle will be fought in the air with battle ships and such as well as on the ground bringing a whole new aspect to the game

[killerbob]

I'm not sure about this as i think this will just make it more confusing.

[Azash]

it would make the game completly pointless. Each crusier would cost around £500. Then the opponent would have to buy one to destroy the other and so on and so on.
