More like a fair number of decades. But anon wasnt playing then or was only playing with his friends, so that time didn't exist.

You guys should have left the train a while ago but decided to stay and feed the devil, your fault.

You can enjoy the story in a bad game if you try hard enough but it's a lot easier to enjoy the lore in a good one.

They are, every time they buy an overpriced and soon to be replaced GW product.

>>93426764
I can see why this post would resonate with you but is it worth its own thread out of context?
>>
>>93426764
True. I haven't played 40k for a while because I disliked a lot of the changes made in the last few edition and got kind of burned out from tournament scene, but I used to play in tournaments. Even then the games I remember most fondly are the ones where something fun or narratively interesting happened.
I once came third in the biggest tournament in my country but I can't really remember any details about those games because nothing particularly noteworthy happened, but I still remember the time I was playing CSM against my friend's IG and my Chaos Lord in terminator armor armed with a daemon weapon charged his command squad, killing every member of the squad except the commander and the standard bearer and losing 1 would to the commander's powerfist. Next turn I rolled 1 for the daemon weapon, causing the lord to not attack and lose a wound, and then the standard bearer attacked, managed to wound, and I rolled a 1 on a 2+ save, which was also the last wound the lord had left.
I lost that game but narratively that was a really memorable moment. We fluffed it as the standard bearer swinging at the Chaos Lord with his flagpole while he was distracted by his daemon weapon rebelling against him in a desperate attempt to protect the commander, and through sheer luck of the Emperor's providence hitting him right in they eye-lense of his helmet and stabbing him in the face.

Yes

that kind of moment is sick as hell, anon. There's a reason you remember it. Wargames should create that kind of moment. That's what they're for.
>>
>>93426911
Correct.

Look, the guys in my group might be 30+, fat, and sweaty but we're NOT buying new armies or playing Warhammer for that matter.

I've played it once but the post you cite makes want to play some goddamned 40k. It is metal af, yeah? I don't know very much about it
>>
>>93441361
Its a fucking mess of a game that you will have to play a super old edition of to get rules that arent shit. Id tell you to just forget the game and just paint the minis if you think 40k is cool, but they are obscenely expensive. Also I dont think its very metal for big corporations to make HR lady curated political shitposts.
>>
>>93426764
Agreed, it’s the cool scenario going on
>>93426880
But I want a fantasy theme
>>
>>93426911
This pretty much.
>>
>>93441361
If you want what 40k used to play like look into historical wargaming, there's also Horus Heresy but loldead and even more expensive.
>>
>>93426911
Yep.
>>
>>93426911
You got it, champ
>>
>>93426764
A guy doing stupid shit on the battlefield because "it's cool" breaks my immersion and uncoolify the game
>>
Yeah the only thing WHFB had going for it was seeing 500 models on the table in neat squares and going hey that looks pretty neat
>>
>>93427266
is game
winners and losers
