As they say, growing old is mandatory, growing up is optional... :DItkovianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05232909071786636360noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7130097283063764724.post-3208913218489627252009-08-25T08:45:15.989-07:002009-08-25T08:45:15.989-07:00Obliterators are practically a must have in any Ch...Obliterators are practically a must have in any Chaos list IMHO. For their versatility and toughness, they really pack some bang for their buck.<br /><br />I'm trying to make both lists more or less mirrors of each other. Both should have 1 basic HQ, 1 Elite (Terminators most likely) and 2 troop choices (5 man squads). Tack on a couple war gear options like a power weapon or fist and special weapons as part of the introduction. <br />I definitely don't plan on winning, but I'm not going to throw the game either. He's obviously a big boy and can take a loss if thats what happens. lol.Schnitzelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06155166599103912139noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7130097283063764724.post-63719727450992851062009-08-25T05:30:03.545-07:002009-08-25T05:30:03.545-07:00That's the thing about series - once you'r...That's the thing about series - once you're invested, no matter how stale it becomes, you want to know how it all ends. Something like closure... As long as it has a suitably epic ending though, staleness can be forgiven - until you think about re-reading it, that is...<br /><br />A 500pt game sounds like a good basis for introducing someone to the game. Unless he expects you to though, try not to beat him - loosing your first game (at least really badly) is one of the most discouraging things you can experience - especially if you haven't gone through the effort of making the models you use yourself.<br /><br />Would you include Obliterators in the Noise Marine list? They can supply some pretty vital anti-tank power.Itkovianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05232909071786636360noreply@blogger.com
