For the God-Princesses! (Warhammer 40k thread).

@Communist Starlight  
Sounds like an unfair fight.

@Nittany Discord  
You’d think GW would give xenos some more love

@Communist Starlight  
I feel your pain. Xenos definitely need more love from GW.

@Nittany Discord  
I will at least buy Gorgutz and Nikkit. I may already have the models it is proxying, but dangit, a new model is a new model.

@Communist Starlight  
Yep. Gotta collect all of those plastic minis. I picked up a carnifex brood myself yesterday.

@Nittany Discord  
Oooh, they look tough. What do they do?

@Communist Starlight  
They seem to do a lot. You can kit them out for ranged or melee combat. I guess they can also be a big distraction piece (“distraction carnifex” is a term I’ve heard in the community).

@Nittany Discord  
I cast carnifex!

@Communist Starlight  
Now I /have/ to put it together.

@Nittany Discord  
I really don’t understand why people buy models when they haven’t at least built their other models.

@Communist Starlight  
I guess it’s fear of missing out. I do have most of my stuff assembled, though. What I don’t have assembled I really don’t need at the moment.

Did you hear about the new FAQ and Errata?

@Nittany Discord  
No, I didn’t. What’s changing?

@Communist Starlight  
A lot.
 
The big changes were to how some secondaries are scored and player two’s turn five scoring. However, there’s also some points changes for Orks and ’Nids and some nerfs to Space Marines. It might mean that your boys have an easier time against those Space Wolves.

@Nittany Discord  
Ooh, eradicators getting nerfed and KFF getting buffed really does help out. I might be able to fit in Nobz now.  
I did play the game, I got wiped but I was very close to winning. I forced the wolves to play in ways they would not have normally played. I am worried about the infiltrators though, because they can reduce the damage they take.

@Communist Starlight  
Maybe your Orks might win next time.

@Nittany Discord  
It was a close game, so I’m not too worried.

@Communist Starlight  
That’s good. Those are always the most exciting games.

Also, my Tyranids may or may not be fighting some Eldar or Imperial Guard tomorrow. My roommate’s friend is coming over for a 40k 1000pt game. I’ll probably let my roommate play against his friend, but you never know.

@Nittany Discord  
Ooh, that sounds cool.  
I have no experience with the eldar nor gaurdsmen, so all I can do is wish y’all luck!

@Communist Starlight  
Roommate’s Chaos fought his roommate’s Eldar in an Open Play War of Attrition. It was a close fight, but Eldar edged out the win.
 
Roommate and I did start a ’nid vs. Chaos game, but we have yet to finish it.

@Nittany Discord  
Ooh, good luck!  
I’ve seen a few elder vs chaos, elder seem to win over chaos most of the time.

Roommate and I finished our game. ’Nids outlasted Chaos to win on points in an open game. It was a close game, though. It was my first time using hive guard, and they did well at their job. So did my termagants with enhanced resistance and catalyst.

@Nittany Discord  
Ooh, very good.

@Communist Starlight  
Yeah, and then that same army got stomped by my roommate’s friend’s guard army full of flame tanks, flame walkers, and a Leman Russ. I don’t recall the name of the other units. I need more gaunts.
