That was meant for Matt Forsythe who asked about Rogue Trader rules :)  But I have no issues with anyone wanting to look at them.

Hehe, me too :)  yes, I'm quite curious indeed.

I once bought a Warhammer Armies I really early edition book at a used bookstore for like $2... all armies were all in the one book.  There were Zoats and things like that... was interesting to flip through.

Where I play: basically I only show up for tourneys or when I'm on my way up to New Hampshire to visit my folks.  I live about 45 mins from both stores, to the south.

Chase doesn't know anything about 40k other than when things "look like a gun"

I noticed that to...though it is a really cool picture.

I will now insist that this is fluff evidence that terminator armor = power armor.

Interesting question regarding a very specific circumstance came up while list-building.

Does Chronus count as a model in Power Armor? (This is the dude who starts the game piloting a vehicle, but if the vehicle is destroyed, has a chance run around as a model in power armor.)

I would think that he fulfills 50pts of the 750pts "of models in power armor."

He is classed as "infantry (character)," not as wargear or anything... Do they use vehicle upgrade in his description?  I think they used to...

Yea, I think he should count toward the 750 points of power armor. The rules say to treat him as a model embarked in a transport, even if the tank doesn't have a transport capacity. And when the tank blows up, he disembarks and walks around in power armor.

Since Chronus listed as infantry he will count.

Nope.

If they're planning to, they certainly haven't emailed me.  Feel free to rally Cookie, Capone, and the others to come play.
