It'll be interesting to see how they handle the new book.joe m.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13189710292622018212noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5409947257572021255.post-32506982723243234062015-04-28T07:46:18.526-04:002015-04-28T07:46:18.526-04:00I think everyone is waiting to see what the ITC do...I think everyone is waiting to see what the ITC does. Since they have now cornered the GT market almost entirely (something like 70+ tournaments are ITC now, including NOVA and adepticon). You don't "have" to follow the ITC rules to be ITC, but being ITC means your tournament goers will probably have ITC compliant armies.greggleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15528518337222880432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5409947257572021255.post-43164863412717701012015-04-27T23:53:19.512-04:002015-04-27T23:53:19.512-04:00Hey Greg, I was all booked up this past weekend an...Hey Greg, I was all booked up this past weekend and unable to make it out. But I'm very curious to see how the proposed changes played out as well! Where's Phil, we need some player feedback on how those things panned out?? :D<br /><br />It was probably a little too soon for Eldar players to adjust their lists to the new book (aka tear the scatter lasers off their war walkers and attach them to bikes), but they didn't appear to dominate the leaderboard: http://app.torrentoffire.com/#/tournament/Huzzah-April-2015/2/leaderboardjoe m.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13189710292622018212noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5409947257572021255.post-91833583380857435812015-04-27T23:39:02.075-04:002015-04-27T23:39:02.075-04:00You're right and I don't know why I still ...You're right and I don't know why I still get my hopes up (after 17 years you'd think I'd learn my lesson haha). They tricked me with all the pre-Necron codex updates (Crons got a strong boost IMO), and even Necrons compared to this new Eldar book seem way outclassed.

Their track record should pretty much speak for itself.<br />There's a bunch of other great games far better suited for competition, and don't require being subjected to a different set of House Rules at every single event. I'll be playing one of those.<br /><br />I'll play 40k just cuz I've been a fan of the fluff for ENTIRELY TOO LONG, and I just can't let the Grimdark go. I've spent too much time there, and I've become infused with warp energy.<br />Waddyagonnado?<br />Suffer. Lament what 'could have been,' if Games Workshop had any real interest in listening to their player base, and make pew pew noises when I move my tanky-tanks.SinSynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12352693991857976930noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5409947257572021255.post-90568296484648028992015-04-25T22:21:49.639-04:002015-04-25T22:21:49.639-04:00I'm a big fan of the Highlander format and wou...I'm a big fan of the Highlander format and would be happy to see it adopted on a larger scale. It's not perfect, but one important thing I've noticed over the 3 Highlander tournaments I've participated in... everyone had fun regardless of the army they were playing and that's what this game should be about.joe m.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13189710292622018212noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5409947257572021255.post-47338289430229919772015-04-25T17:09:10.996-04:002015-04-25T17:09:10.996-04:00A lot of people are playing with "Highlander&...A lot of people are playing with "Highlander" style rules.
