so another loss

Yup.

The ap of system of 40k is bullshit and needs to be scrapped. Survivability is one thing, outright nigh-invulnerabilty is another.
People complained about 2nd editon being hero-hammer, but is nothing compared to what 40k is nowdays.
Becoming ever more disillisoned with it all.

  1. I will say, I dont think my Grinmar has made as many saves as he did against you yesturday :O

    He was a monster.

  2. The only complaint I really have (as a space marine player) is that my marines are paying 16pts a model to have a 3+ save and yet everyone and his mum has AP3 weapons. With that in mind why am I paying so much for a 3+ save?

  3. Because you are immune to the other 90% of weapons? Sure there is plenty of weaponry to negate 3+, but they really shouldn't be that common unless you really spam them because you are set to play marines.
    I can tailor a list againts marines with plasma spam. but then it's not my army. It's random specialist force that takes on marines and mostly wasted v anything else.
    I like grenade launchers and autocannons, just my thing. But against marines, why bother? One may fire grenades designed to destroy armour (krak) and one may fire heavy caliber shells that are also perfectly capable of destroying a light tank. But against power armour, may as well of fired a lasgun as it's the exact same difference in the long run.
    So people will say why not take plasma/lascannon. Plasma I will give, but not a huge fan of playing cheese. Lascannon is an anti tank weapon (and a really bad one at that). Tell me why it should be my default choice v infantry?
    So again, against marines I'm forced to play an army I don't want or lose. What great choices. Only option I see is just to stop playing v marines altogether. It's just not fun, as iirc thats why I play.
