I don't think that is silly at all - really the background can support a lot of weirdo combinations of forces. I like your suggestion.
Additionally, I think this is a valid discussion to have - but worry that people start combining two different things in these discussions: perceived 'op-ness' and personal renditions of what is appropriately 'fluffy'.
I played with my Skitarii in Rhinos and lost a combined 31-3.Originally Posted by Bullymike
Quit being such a whiner and play for fun.
I think he meant Skitarri in drop pods. Which is leafblower 2.0 and arguably one of the best turn 1 tabling army out there.
In other words the worst thing you could bring to a campaign aiming for a more casual narrative play.

And no one is playing with a full drop pod skitarri army that is 7 or 8 units. Nor even 4+ with any other combos. I have had two or three units and not even outfitted or kit. On top of that there has been nothing else in that list besides normal stuff.
Both list could of easily beat me too if people took a little bit of thought.

After reading this I have decided that the movie "Pineaple Express" should redo one of its quotes from:
"But if you do something heroic then you'll come back as like an eagle or a dragon, or Jude Law."
To:
"But if you do something heroic then you'll come back as like an eagle or a dragon, or Nick Rose."
I have no idea what the heck people are talking about when they start throwing around adjectives like 'casual' and 'narrative' to describe certain lists. I have a vague understanding of what you are trying to imply, but I also know that whatever one person's constructed idea of these things are, it probably doesn't match mine. The only thing I can say with any certainty is what will make me groan if I have to play it. But even that is fluid, depending on what I am running on any given day.
Point is, people need to drop the absolutist rhetoric.
If you have a problem with something that just beat you, have the stones to discuss it with that opponent in person afterwards.
I swear, it is like some people only want this tiny little group of people who all think and play exactly the same, where everything is exactly status quo all the time and nobody has to bother trying to analyze their own deficiencies to get better.
And the rest need to not take it so personally when people get upset and vent a little.

I agree and my point was that I didn't do that and lost horribly in two games. But I didn't go whining about a lack of narrative, I just played the damn game.
I think noodlers is OP

CRP is OP. Look, he even has the P in his name!
A P is just a P without an O.

If OP stands for Old Person, then yes. (says a fellow OP)
Just assume anything I post here is meant in good humor and filled with obnoxious smiley emoticons ...
