    Yes we should Gatekeep harder than we have ever 'Gatekeeped' before! We should also be very careful about competitive play we might regret it, the problem with turning a fun game into a sport, based on statistics and tier list is people might wake up one day and 40k has become cricket. Boring and bland and only treated like a sport. I can see a very grey future with us screaming "What have we DONE".

      Exactly, I suppose I’m no longer on the same side as I used to be but I’ve been corrupted by competitive players after them joining our group lol. It is so very very hard to mend my behaviour in the way I play.
      The issue with current space marines is that every unit is equally as sh1t when compared with other factions
      However even the weaker ones like terminators can be very good if you use them right so it’s very hard for me to not play a shi1t list competitively minded.
      When my opponent brought a monster to meet my terminators, after fighting I manoeuvred them out of combat using a Anvil stratagem onto an objective, come my turn I charge into weaker t3 units I know my terminators will absolutely destroy.
      When I was more casual I’d have fun seeing this epic fight continue but I’m not casual anymore.

      I liked playing the MLG playlist in Halo 2 and 3 and Reach, but just as a “let’s play something different” kind of vibe but I didn’t like playing it all the time because it took the weapon sandbox and reduced it to three things.
      Fun for a couple of matches, but I’d rather be in the playlist where it has different game modes (oddball, king of the hill, griffball etc)

    As a kid, I was a full year younger than everyone. So, I was a lot smaller than the other kids. Which made me a prime target for bullying. Not to mention, I had a big mouth. (and still do) Needless to say, I got in A LOT of fights. But it stopped the bullying.

    Salamanders literally do not get any special rules or detachment in 10th, just unique captains. They are green, ultimately marines. All divergent chapters, however, do get their own detachment and units and more characters to choose from. Special abilities are looked to enhancements, stratagems, and a detachment rule. Weapon abilities are universal outside the one detachment rule. This dude was making everything up, also aside from the eliminators there is actually no way to have meltas on everything most units do not have access to them at all. He taking advantage of his friend because he knew his friend was a pushover, I truly feel bad for people like this who refuse to stand up for themselves. Anyone who says "do you think I am cheating"out of nowhere is cheating. But I swear these type of people really think the best intentions in everyone but in reality they are naive and it is sad to see.

    Having played a couple of games with the fun models I wanted to and having no luck, not one game even close to a draw, I started looking at "best units of" and "army tier list"s. I do this to learn the army's current strength and how to utilize units without treating them as just another plastic model on the board whose ability I constantly forget. I know I won't be able to build a hyper competitive army, nor would I copy a tournament list purposely as I can't play competitively. Even for those not in competitive scenes I think those lists/videos help to understand what are good and bad choices for the army they want to play.

    My Bard/Sorcerer became something of a Main Character in my D&D 3.5 game, but in my defence it took place in both The Old World and 40K, and I was the only one aside from the DM with knowledge of both universes.
    More importantly, the three other players also had fun, particularly in combat, where I was so close to useless my character gained his signature combat spell (Burning Hands) as an homorific, and the party got a bonus to dodge if I might just so happen to singe them with it.
    P.S.
    People who don't like segways have probably unsubscribed.

    I’ve been trying OPR again for the last couple days. Made some basic 1k lists with units I have ready to put on a table, tested it out. I see why people like it, comparatively. But…
    For me? There’s a SEVERE lack of crunch. Just based on the armies and units I like to play, it’s looking like I’d need to roll around at 4K+ points minimum to begin having fun. 40k is flawed as a game system for balance and depth, but the bare minimum level of Combat Patrol (the sub system or 500pts) is more fun than OPR to me.
    Now, I’m a former competitive player who got sick of FOTM overpowered bullshit (Eldar) and I prefer to run all of my armies as 1-of units with no duplicates and a clear theme in mind. It plays very well casually, and printing off the data cards (fuck paying for that) makes referring to all my stuff very easy. Maybe I’m just an outlier, but I don’t find 10th particularly complex compared to 9th, even with the unit abilities (which always existed just in different form in 9th).
    I’ll keep trying OPR because of its simplicity to try to get people to start the game, but I feel like it’s not something I can enjoy long term.
