[Simon]

hi
sure, i didn't play 40k for almost a year already, so i'm a noob and maybe a bit slow..
but yeah, i'm keen for a game this weekend....

[Ant]

I will see you sunday.

cheers
Nobbsie

[Simon]

hi Lazarus , i can play you the week after if u still keen..

[Lazarus]

will see if i can make it man.

[Simon]

Thanks for the game Ant, I learnt a lot today, I think the new 40k rule is Wwwway better than the previous edition.

the new LOS is pretty cool, no more hiding inside an area terrain...
the new run rule is insane, Tau will have soooo much trouble against tyranid..
tank shock and ramming is very new to me..

but after reading through the new rulebook again afterward, I found out we did a couple of things wrong.

1. all blast weapons now scatter, so frag missile launcher will scatter too..
2. there is no one last model standing test anymore??
3. walker fights with front armor in close combat, stunned or immobilised walker will fight with 1 less attack, no matter how many times suffered.
4. shaken do not affect walker in CC, and yes weapon destoryed result will destory the dreadnought close combat weapon and reduce to its normal strength..

other than that, we pretty much got everything right~~

thanks for the game~~ you got an awesome army there...


Next week, my ork horde VS Lezle's black templar~~ it's going to be very bloody~~! Waaaghh~

[Ant]

Yeah, Good Game and lots of fun - so thanks for that.

[1] Didn't know about last man standing - thats a good change.
[2] Missile launchers are interesting. Use BS for the single shot and scatter minus BS for the template. Should have remembered that one - also forgot that eldar missiles cause pinning test [thats one I need to remember].
[3] Did you find out whether kans etc act like dreadnaughts in all respects....or do they have some of their own special rules?

Good luck in your next game!

cheers

[Simon]

yeah, killer kans act like dreadnought in all respects with dreadnought close combat arm.

[Simon]

Thanks for the game Lezle, it was good fun, lots of funny moment, anyone else keen for a game next weekend?

[Lezle]

Yes, agreed; it was a lot of fun! Thank you Simon.

21 dec?

anyone wanna take on a noob? 

[JJ]

I'm interested let me get back to you later on tonight..Just double check I am able to finally make it in this weekend.

[Eisenhorn]

If JJ can't i will be at the club on sunday and am keen for a game against anyone (1850pts or smaller), as long as they don't mind a few proxies (I'm trying to decide on a battle cry list)

[Simon]

sure~

[Simon]

hi eisenborn, JJ is keen for a game this weekend, but if u r still available the weekend after, we can organize a game.

[Eisenhorn]

yeah that would be great, i was going to go then anyway and hope for the best. What army will you be using? mine will be loyalist scum, i mean space marines (nothing fancy)

[Erebus]

im gunna be there on sunday with my chaos space marines 1500pt and 1850pt lists ready to play any and all, except Eisenhorn, played him last week..

beware the word bearers.. there dread likes to go cwaazy. 

[Simon]

thanks for the game JJ.. too bad we couldn't finish it but it was a really close game..
the new kill points mission is really crap...


but anyway, if eisenhorn is still keen for a game, we can arrange a game this weekend?

[JJ]

Thats alright Simon..Thank you..It was a tough game.We got through a good chunk of it considering our time limit and the number of models we had on the board together..250+?? It wasn't going to make for the fastest game.lol.

[Erebus]

me and eisinhorn will be there on the 28th. tried last week but eisinhorn was sick, if he is sick this week i will walk, na not really just drive myself. not to worried if theres no one to play, it is cool just seeing all those armies in one place.

[Simon]

sorry, i didn't read this post in time, are u still keen for a game next weekend? if so can u please PM me?

[Simon]

18/1/09 anyone?

[Eisenhorn]

i'm keen to play anyone and will definatlly be there on sunday weather or not i have a game orginased.  i've been sick for ages then misses trouble so i'm chafing at the bit for a game.

[Simon]

[Eisenhorn]

[Simon]
