    I agree they should have at least explained the Ork Stompa thing. It is super obscure and you have to go through several forgeworld books to use it. At least they made sure only PURE ork armies can use it, and it buffed a supbar codex to the same level as most of the top-tier armies.

    I am rather happy with it though if only because it is insanely durable vs alpha strike and grav spam armies which plague tournaments. Hopefully we see things shift towards Real anti-tank weapons(instead of pure grav) and less turn 1 alpha strike armies because of it.

    It could also be that 40k just isn't a very good game right now. It can be enjoyable in the right circumstances but in general is a pile of poo and lots of people are not excited by it. Also Dragon's Lair doesn't really do any events of any kind to support the game so unless the players motivate themselves it naturally slumps.

    That's the kind of drama we are looking for! I knew you still had the 40k spirit in you

    Just what needs to be done to qualify as an event of any kind? Are you wanting to see Apoc Games, Campaigns......? We have a Team Tournament this Sunday.

    Yes. There is the monthly tournament, which is run by the players. Where are the campaigns, story events, community involvement of any kind.

    i disagree with you about 40k being a crap game, i have a lot of fun with friends painting and playing but i find that a vocal group of people try to ruin it for everyone else by trying to say "hey 40k sucks youre with me right?" that is not what you are doing here, you are being constructive so please dont take offense, but there have been a lot of people take their toys and go home and throw the molotov cocktail in behind them.

    as far as dragons lair i could not agree with you more. they devote a ton of floor space in the store to 40k but leave it to crp to run the tournaments and hope that is ok with everyone. they have no store presence in our community as well as do not do any promotions of any type for 40k. i do not understand how a store could give so much real estate to a product and do so little to promote it.

    I assume they think since we took it over that we are ok with and then they are ok with that. *shrug*
