adamv6 Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 I have recently come back to 40K after a 15yr break (age giveaway...) From recent experience, I would have 2 pieces of 15 word advice for you; 1) REALLY Know the rules, wargear and psychic attacks inside out, back to front, upside down. 2) Choose your HQ wisely, and utilise everything they have to your advantage.

Gentlemanloser Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 Ah hell, gonna get flamed for this... 15 words? Unless you are planning something specific, don't ever use Grey Knight Terminators.

Hellios Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 Forgot one: Don't take it seriously. Its little plastic toy soldiers, not world domination ;) That's just what the Soviets want you to think! 1) Make fun the primary objective, winning is secondary to fun.

Dosjetka Posted February 25, 2012 Author Share Posted February 25, 2012 Thanks for all the advice ;) Gentlemanlooser: Could you PM me with the reasons why you wouldn't take GK Terminators please? I'm curious to see what you have to say about them :) Keep the advice coming though!

BrotherWasted Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 Paladins over Terminators. Don't be afraid to charge. You can win easy with most builds.

Captain Juan Juarez Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 BBL, this is actually a brilliant idea for asking for advice; it forces the giver to really think about what they want to say and communicate it effictively.

Dosjetka Posted March 1, 2012 Author Share Posted March 1, 2012 Ah, cheers for all the replies chaps :D I thought this would die out a bit but it's good to see that some people have still posted some good advice!

Dosjetka Posted March 5, 2012 Author Share Posted March 5, 2012 Ride holy shrines all—Twenty-four: storm' and 'cannon. Stay frosty my friends. I can't figure out the first two lines, but the last ones seems to be referring to psykers (ie. Librarians)?

I can't figure out the first two lines, but the last ones seems to be referring to psykers (ie. Librarians)? Cheers, Ludovic It's a haiku! Holy shrines are tanks to wrap your troops in. Storm and cannons are storm bolters and psycannons that you must close to within 24" to fire. All GKs and some inquisitors are psykers. Pyskers turn things frosty when they use their powers. It's also derived from one of my favorite lines from 'Aliens.'
