Warhammer 40k Community Survey

The fine folks at Games Workshop appear to be listening to informal fan feedback and have created a survey to get formal player feedback on the state of Warhammer 40,000. They posted a link to a survey on the Warhammer Community page and has a few telling questions.

Among the questions asked are:

How long have you played?

What type of games, competitive etc?

Points or power level?

What you enjoy about the game? (Out of the 10 answers available, painting minis isn't an option.)

Where do you shop for games?

Ranking the game's complexity.

Thoughts on building armies.

Opinions on strategems.

You can take the survey here :

I don't know what info they hope to glean that couldn't be figured out informally from other online feedback but this at least has the appearance of GW doing their diligence to make a game that responds to player's demands/ wishes. I, for one, used the blank, "tell us your thoughts" box to vent. Hopefully there will be some changes to the game that will make it desirable for me to play again, but I do not want to play 40k in th current state it's in.

Salamanders Badab War Veteran

Primaris Marines are great sculpts, but they will never have the soul of the old hand-sculpted models. The Badab War is my favorite battle in the 40k universe and its one of the reasons that the Salamanders are my favorite Space Marine chapter. #miniaturepainting #paintingwarhammer #grimdark #warhammercommunity #salamanders #salamanders40k #28mm #spacemarines40k #oldhammer #badabwar #astartes #armageddon40k

Bad News for Deathwing

The new Balance Data Slate was released today for Warhammer 40k 9th edition and my beloved Dark Angels Deathwing list took a beating. If you don't have the codex, the fourth bullet point was the rule that gave Inner Circle infantry units, like Deathwing Terminators, Transhuman Physiology. Basically, the key feature that most players loved about the list. Rest in peace, Deathwing, we hardly knew ye. Also, what a crappy way to write that rule?! Why not simply include a sentence that says, Inner Circle models do not benefit from transhuman without use of a strategem? I know 10th edition is supposed to be cleaner and easier to understand, but this does not bode well. I'm not really a loyal Dark Angels player (see what I did there?) so I'll just shift back to playing one of my other Marines armies or orks. I've been day dreaming about a Thunder Warriors army again and dug out some bits to work on conversions. I'm loving the idea of a Age of Stryfe White Scars/Star Hunt...

Callidus Assassin

This is my newly painted Callidus assassin, Mary Poppin-yourbackfield. She scores points. I hate that I have to play one of these to stay competitive. Yar.
