Your frustration with the sta...Hiya, Mr Castigator! Your frustration with the state of things is understandable. I'm having a lot of fun with like-minded people playing at low point levels, 1000 pts or so, rarely above 1500, with the combined arms detachment and Maelstrom missions. I'm focusing more on the painting and hobby aspect of this entertainment than on the competitive side - it's hopeless to give this a try unless you are willing to go broke. Anyway, I'm glad to hear from you after this time and looking forward to reading more about Nestor and his partners in crime. Cheers.

I've heard that our Nurgle cousins will be receiving something similar in a couple of months, so that should be good for Rob.<br />I'm looking forward to the Legions book in a couple of weeks, the thought of being able to use a pure Slaanesh army has me pretty stoked.....but I'm trying not to get my hopes up too much ;-)<br />So there's plenty out there for the Chaos player, hopefully some of it will be of use for a not-so humble Slaanesh player ;-) Castigator (Gary)https://www.blogger.com/profile/09177108461264289110noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9153056688144511913.post-74370889093299098432016-11-29T03:57:47.397-08:002016-11-29T03:57:47.397-08:00I finally have time to respond as it should be!

I don't like the random generation of psychic powers, if a player has more than a couple of psykers, then I've lost interest in the game before it's even started. I really hope that they radically alter how psychic powers play in 8th.<br />Allies (or being allowed to take 4 or 5 different sources) are my biggest bugbear, we might as well be playing unbound.<br />My next post will be about the Highlander event and will show just how good 7th can be with just a few restrictions.....hopefully ;-) Castigator (Gary)https://www.blogger.com/profile/09177108461264289110noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9153056688144511913.post-14017628277876520232016-11-27T04:06:16.506-08:002016-11-27T04:06:16.506-08:00Good to see you back.

It's not perfect, but it's the best we've had since I got into 40K with 7th. CSM though, it may as well be a 4th edition codex.<br /><br />I know we got new stuff coming, but I had high hopes for Traitors Hate too, and that didn't work out as well as it could have.<br /><br />Anyway. Don't mean to piss in your parade ;)Thorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04437070475561268098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9153056688144511913.post-14460889395356164482016-11-26T12:53:48.172-08:002016-11-26T12:53:48.172-08:00Cheers Markus.
