So, uh yeah this is the Warhammer 40k thread.
Feel free to discuss anything 40k related in here.
Ill see how this figures out, and post certain rules accordingly.
But um, lets see who everyone is, and what they play and all that jazz.
For example, I am Stan, and I am a budding overlord of Tzeentch and Khorne Chaos marines. I tend to fancy the thousand sons, but i do like me some khorne marines if people get a little too close. My army is all on paper right now, so ill keep you posted on that.

If you're gonna do that shit, do it about one of those ontario elections that always end in the cops chasing a rapist around a tim hortons or some shit.

Tzeentch and Khorne can't stand each other, but I'm with you Thousand Sons cool, and Khorne berserkers Rock!
And we do have zombies in the 40k world. If you ever saw Necromunda (40k spin off) one of the gangs was Scavvies and full of zombies.

Well kinda. Nurgle is the Chaos god of death and destruction, personified by stagnation, entropy, disease and decay and hes followers do look quite undead (undead who wear effin POWER ARMORS that is...) Edit. I was (and always will be) Ork collector. There is just something awesome about these green dudes who could easily conquer the whole galaxy if they just stopped fight each other... |

Buddy, people dont buy warhammer for the proportions.
Now, prime them, paint them, and get them an HQ, and stuff.

Yeah the proportions are purposefully off. Sort of like "the David". Yes I just compared GW minis to one of the most famous scuptures in the world, but only to make a point.

yes, i know, but that makes them look bad to me. although i will try to learn to sculpt during the vacation that i will have now, for 4 months:D cause i like this scale. space marines have even worse proportions, but lets say that this is because of their modifications. still, i just plain dont like GW figures. Infinity game figures look waaaay better to me. Edit: Fixed the link for ya - AMedit: thank you:D |

If you're willing to be very very poor in sacrifice for this game, and you really really want good proportions, you could always go to forgeworld. But be warned, they are incredibly expensive. Moreso than the regular GW minis because the FW minis are completely resin sculpted by hand by a team of dudes in their basements. BUT IT ALL LOOKS SO COOL.
My brother got the eldar Avatar from them, and it is about four inches bigger, and four BPM's more terrifying than the GW Avvie.
(you can measure how scary something is with heartbeats.)

yeah, i know about them. but i still think that it would be way more fun to sculpt and paint something all by myself.

I was working part time at a hobby shop when Warhammer first came out. And I tried really hard to get into it, I honestly wanted to like but it never clicked for me. I'm not really sure why. *Shrugs and goes back to playing Battletech.*
