Brother Vader Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 ............I hit the sack, I been too long I'm glad to be back. +++ Initialising Cogitation Engines +++ +++ Input co-ordinates and bless the machine spirits +++ +++ For The Emperor +++ +++ DEEPSTRIKING +++ This post is basically musings and ramblings with no real point. There is a pretty picture at the end, so feel free to skip to that. Finally. Finally. After having the 6th ed rulebook since release day I have actually strung some games together. I have been playing a truck-load of LoTR/Hobbit ('cos the rules are so tight, and it's Tolkien), but a Templar never truly stops crusading and my crusade saw it's first significant action of 6th ed this weekend at my local club tourney. I didn't come last, which was both a surprise and a relief. I also won best painted, which was a nice surprise too. I delivered a large dose of butt-kick to some Vanilla SM and some GK, but had my backside handed to me by DE (I was a bit unlucky), Chaos (first time against the new dex, Bale Flamers hurt when your Rhinos go pop) and Tau (never seen the 'dex, so I had no idea what anything did). It's nice to find out that a change of editions hasn't made me suck at 40K any more than I already did. I need to try some more stuff against more opponents until I'd feel as comfortable boring you guys with my tactical opinions as I did in 5th........... it's only a matter of time though, you have been warned. Anyway, here's a pretty picture of my crusade taken this weekend. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/276179-back-in-black/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
