GW just informed me of a price increase based on the extra "content" they've included.

A rulebook will now retail for $29388.09

I agree with Murf. Go to CVS and get a tampon. Have you played the games yet? Is it really THAT bad? I some how doubt it, life goes on.

T be fair, the Plainville community is VERY concerned with playing the game correctly, following all of the rules in each and every game.

Ben and the community at large have been great about making sure people learn and play correctly.

We've just got a lot of new rules and people are trying to figure out what is correct.  This is especially important to hash out before any tournament is run.

Sam is the rules guy and everything with respect to our events will go through him.

People are absolutely free to play in whichever way they would like, but again, the Plainville crowd is pretty concerned with getting everything "right."  Whatever "right" may be.

The opposite of "Left" I think that is "Right"

In older editions of 40k, the #1 rule in the rulebook was to have fun. I guess GW scrapped that rule because they only wanted hardcore gamers  ;D

Honestly, I haven't been this excited to play 40k since 4th edition. I'm glad the mech meta game was nerfed and is back to more focus on infantry (ya know, the guys that do all the fighting and dying). The new rules add a TON of options and playstyles. Like I said, I'm very excited.

The problem is, that has always been a fairly meaningless rule.  Some people have fun by competing, and ambiguous rules get in the way of that.
