Da Taz Posted November 16, 2013 Share Posted November 16, 2013 Just finished reading about people bitching about their codex! (CSM!). I'm like please be quiet! We had one issued with 2nd (which I have), we were in 3rd ed. rule book. We finely got our own codex with the Witch Hunters and then we ended up with that messed up one in WD and now we have the same one updated a little and not even in print. And how many have they had? 8, 10 or even 12 since it all started? I mean give Sisters a break! Its looking like we will not even get one before 2015 and by then they may have another one or even two while we wait and wait and wait! Ok I know that CSM, SM and Guard are the most sold, but really! 3.5 for us and like huge amounts for them! All I can say to them is this! BE QUIET and ENJOY All of Codexs!

Vesper Posted November 16, 2013 Share Posted November 16, 2013 CSMs aren't "bitching" because they get codices. It's actually the contrary, as most CSM players would've been more than happy to keep the 3.5 one. You fail to understand why that part of the community isn't satisfied. You really should've read a bit better to get what it was all about.

Naminé Posted November 16, 2013 Share Posted November 16, 2013 It can look bad when other 'factions' of the playerbase are vocal in their dissapointment of their codex whilst seeming to recieve a lot more in comparison to another faction, but this alone does not mean that both factions don't have problems. If there is something wrong with your codex, then by all means you have the right to say so and to anyone who will listen. Just because another codex is worse shouldn't prevent that. If anything, a faction that recieves more attention should be encouraged to complain loudly, hopefully preventing similar issues from happening again in any future codex, which benefits us all. I find the main problem CSM players have with their current book is that it is seen as extremely monobuild and spammy in order to compete, which coincidentally is my biggest issue with the new Sisters codex too.

Hellios Posted November 16, 2013 Share Posted November 16, 2013 Guess what? A bad codex is worse than no codex. It means we have to spend money on the codex, and possibly on new models to make our army work. So out of your '5 codices', one didn't cost you anything over the rulebook, another cost two White Dwarfs (which I admit is 2 too many), and another is essentially an update of the WD dex... It isn't really a new codex. Also have the Sisters ever had a truly good/great codex? Chaos have had a couple of rule sets that were pretty impressive. Which makes bad rule sets all the more disappointing. Also... the Dark Eldar players want me to tell Sisters players to shut up... They have had 2 codices... 3 if you count the .5 update that allowed wych cults and gave the DE a vehicle armoury. Oh wait... despite having less codices, and being in a similar position of not being a very popular army... both DE codices have been fairly decent. Not from a competitive point of view, but overall I think the DE codex might be the best codex out of all of the current codices. The internal balance if pretty good, with only a few duff units/bits of wargear.

*Furyou Miko Posted November 16, 2013 Share Posted November 16, 2013 The white dwarf codex was actually pretty damn awesome, powerlevel wise. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/283372-codex-bitching/#findComment-3523882 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vigrid Of Asgaror Posted November 16, 2013 Share Posted November 16, 2013 I have to admit I didn't have much of a problem with the White Dwarf codex, I just wanted plastics. I don't mind this one either, but I still want plastics. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/283372-codex-bitching/#findComment-3523940 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vigrid Of Asgaror Posted November 17, 2013 Share Posted November 17, 2013 I haven't had a chance to play using the new codex, as the few people I know who will play are currently getting their armies.Looking forward to my first game with the new codex though. At least then I will have a better idea on how it all works on the battlefield.

Brother Tyler Posted November 17, 2013 Share Posted November 17, 2013 We are not going to have a discussion in which we rant about other players' complaints about their codices.
