Shouldn't it be Slaves to Darkness, not Slaves of Darkness? |

Dave: I've always felt that was the only interpretation of EA ranges that really made sense, but was it ever actually stated by the designers or is that just your interpretation? Without wanting to start an argument over mini scale, I've also though that the original minis followed something like a ... |

I was Deb's opponent running Saim-Hann.

The Lexicanum page on Eldar Craftworlds gives some good info on the fluff and in-game characteristics of the different craftworlds. While 'official' GW-published army lists originally came in books with plenty of fluff and descriptive detail ( see here for Biel-Tan Eldar as published in Swordwind ),... |

At the top of the previous page, you said that the companies are core + 1-3 platoons for 2-4 platoons total. But in the v0.8 PDF, it says clearly and in multiple locations that the companies are core + 2 -3 platoons for 3 -4 platoons total. Which is it? 450 points for a bare-minimum Heavy Mech Compa... |

This was my first game running the new Hive Fleet Dagon list, against Mard's Cadians tournament all-comers list. I've already posted some general thoughts on Dagon in the development thread, which may be of interest. Tyranids (Dagon 4.71) Primary Synapse 350 - Major swarm, Hive Tyrant, 4x Zoanthrope... |

Good to hear your thoughts Mrdiealot, and it feels like we're coming from a pretty similar place. I'm looking forward to seeing Mard's comments after taking Dagon through CanCon (more info here) On carnifexes One thing we wanted to avoid was armies with tonnes of 4++ AVs running around. It turned ou... |

I finally had a chance to get my new nids onto a table at our local club and got two games in against Cadians and Black Templars (new experimental airdrop list). I'm in the process of writing up a full report of my game against Mard's Cadians (2-0 victory to Cadians on turn 4), but as that'll take a... |

Something that can be particularly helpful against lower activation count armies is working hard on turn one to reduce your opponents' activation count by stripping fragile formations. Artillery and aircraft are particularly good for this, but engagements might work against forward garrisons if they... |

After many years playing exclusively Eldar across 40k and Epic, I've decided that it's time to branch out and start something new. I've always liked the look of Tyranids, and with none of the local players running them at the moment it seems a good choice. Writing up a list is a little more difficul... |

Thanks Jimmy, and I feel pretty much the same way about the pretty but unintelligible picture-filled reports I read. I remember that White Dwarf used to do a monthly battle report with diagrams vaguely like these ones: much easier in 40k, as each player turn makes a pretty simple story, but I think ... |

Fearless Gorgons!!! The thought hadn't even occurred, and would be far nastier. Perhaps less effective for Kriegers on the offensive when the infantry abandon their damaged Gorgons to entrench in cover next to an objective, but against a fast and nasty list like S-H it would really help in keeping t... |
