Good morning everyone. Well, it's morning where I am anyway. I scanned the forum for a place to post an introduction, but couldn't find one anywhere (please let me know if I've gone blind), so I guess here is as good as any place. There's something special about the first post on a new site...

I do use the same name on a number of sites, so hi to anyone who I have come across before (and apologies where necessary!). I have been playing GW games for a bit over 18 years, and actually started with proper GW games with the Space Marine game, way back in '93. This was sparked by the first White Dwarf magazine I ever bought, issue 160, which was around the time Man O'War first appeared, and included an amazing Space Marine battle report called 'Assault On Barbarius' between the Imperial Guard supported by Ultramarines and a Reaver Titan vs Eldar (pah! never trust anything with pointy ears, especially my Dark Eldar!). It was excellent.

I now play mainly Fantasy and 40K, but have models for Necromunda, Blood Bowl, Inquisitor, Gothic, Man O' War & Warhammer Quest, as well as Epic. I am just starting to re-organise my Epic stuff after several years of not playing. In fact, I've probably never played a 'proper' game of Epic in any of it's incarnations, but am determined that now is the time for that to change, if I can lure a couple of the local guys into a game, so I plan on making this site the core of my Epic revival, being as there are few other sites with a lively Epic community. I have sizeable Marine and Ork armies, plus some Titans for support, and buildings from Space Marine, Epic 40K and Titan Legions.

So that's it, here I am. I don't want to turn this into a big questions thread, because there are specific sections to deal with the various aspects, but I have downloaded the list for Epic Dark Angels, and noticed that there seems to be a line missing from the Titanhammer stats - can anyone tell me what should appear there please? It looks like the weapon stats are missing.

Anyway, cheers, and I'll see you around the forum.

Eternus.

Welcome to the forum Eternus!


I like this one as a generic Assault Terminator weapons stat (really no need for distinct types of Assault Terminators armed with different things in Epic), possibly/probably with an invulnerable save from their Storm Shields.

Welcome, I'm a fellow warseerite who made a pilgrimage here recently!

Are you the same Eternus from Astronomican? I believe we discussed possibly meeting up for a game sometime as we're pretty local.... but thanks to my job taking over my life, I think I managed to not let that get off the ground....

if you're still interested, PM me, the guys at GFG are happy with people playing epic and there are a couple of guys who play on tuesday/wednesday nights....?

One and the same chap! Nice to see you. I have considered going along to GFG for a while, and it's closer to home than the Leicester Uni club I have been going to for a while. None of the guys there play Epic - what do you play Epicwise?

I have to admit, midnight nappy changes and two o' clock feeds have knocked my gaming on the head since the end of April, but I'm making plans for a return soon...



Nice, thanks. I kinda agree, there are too many units in play in a decent sized battle to get overcomplicated with the weapon options. That kind of detail works better in 40K, and even more so in Inquisitor. The focus of Epic is the movement and engagements of entire formations of troops rather than that degree of micro detailing. I think that having just two sets of stats for Terminators - one ranged/balanced and one assault - should be sufficient, and minor special rules used to flavour the different chapters.

I've got a sizeable ork army and I have the marines from the e40k box set, maybe 1500 points worth.... I've got some warhounds too

my aim is to get a minimum of 4k for all the main armies..... I'm thinking necrons will be next as the minis are pretty cheap!

Congrats on the sprog, glad to hear you're doing your bit with the nighttime efforts, my 2 year old is currently being migrated into a proper bed and it's strange when he wakes you up silently in the night to change his nappy.....

Welcome Eternus. Always good to have another epic player aboard who wants to chat rather than lurking

Thanks for the welcome.



Congrats, and happy 1st Fathers Day!



Thanks, though you may live to regret it...
