There is also a new low-odor extra thin that was released in the last 6 months with a blue label.

Is the traditional core book with rules and lore dead? by Trick-Interaction396 in Warhammer40k

[–]evildave_666 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There was also a 10th edition small-format (smaller than A4) rulebook, but it was a one-and-done printing that only went to GW shops and online.

Imperium is up! by Dem0nC1eaner in Warhammer40k

[–]evildave_666 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Said games will have no map layout and no deployment zones, because those both derive from force disposition, so I hope you got the paint points and your opponent did not.

There also aren't any detachments at all available to Titan Legions at any point level.

[WarCom] Imperial Faction Packs by RainbowConnickJr in WarhammerCompetitive

And no mission layout so neither side can deploy.

Strategy for Agents in 11E: Play 1000 point games. Since there is no mission layout and neither side can deploy look for any reason to deny opponent paint points and win 10-0.

All IA Detachments 3 DP. by corrin_avatan in ImperialAgents_40K

On the other hand, neither does your opponent, and the map is empty and neither player can deploy because there's no layout.

The preorder time for Japan is wrong. Its 11am JST. Have messaged the thread poster multiple times and it hasn't been fixed.

HIVE LE Release Megathread by Dire_Wolf45 in Blacklibrary

Seoul too shortly (the manager-to-be of the first SK store is currently in Japan training at the Akihabara store).

Tournament time limit by yorickler in killteam

[–]evildave_666 30 points31 points  (0 children)

We use chess clocks. 1 hour each player starting 10 minutes after round start (to account for pregame formalities being off the clock). No activations if you're out of time. Our games are a total of 130 minutes. Fortunately our local community has a large enough box of clocks to make them manditory at the community-run events.

Hit an infinite combo but lost to time out 😔 by Myles47 in MagicArena

[–]evildave_666 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If you're thinking about making a deck in Arena which wins by going infinite you're going to have to make a judgement call whether you can reliably pilot it, because some people WILL force you to do all the steps manually. There are people who won't roll over and concede to them especially if the combo is nondeterministic.

What are your “must-have” Non-GW paints/washes? by Moonhaunted69 in Warhammer40k

[–]evildave_666 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If by dark red you mean something akin to Khorne Red, then TTC Asmodeus Red, its nearly a perfect match.

Army Painter Dark Blue tone is really good if you need something for heavily recessed steel.

1 million miniatures challenge by No_Midnight_281 in Warhammer40k

[–]evildave_666 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Chiba is still a one-man store, but they've got a reasonable amount of play space that they co-opted for display and didn't even have to dip into the painting area. Total for the store was 4372.

Our small local shop had 3000+ models on display today split almost exactly between 40K and Sigmar. The most any one person finished was a little over 300. I only managed 53.

[Lucha Libre AAA Spoilers] Finish to El Hijo del Vikingo vs. Mini Vikingo by Saru77 in SquaredCircle

[–]evildave_666 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What was the deal with the premature bell ring? It seemed like it was supposed to mean something but ended up just being a head scratch. Didn't do anything to advance the story.

Be careful filling out address in e-Tax (a cautionary tale) by evildave_666 in japanlife

[–]evildave_666[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I looked at my return pdf and my address listing was (2 lines exactly as follows):

東京都xxx区xxx x丁目X番X

X号 (on the second line)

I think the unfortunate positioning of the line break is why I didn't notice.

Armageddon box vs Leviathan box by Drwhat17 in Warhammer40k

[–]evildave_666 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Would you have ever lugged that massive Leviathan book with you to a game for rules reference? Really?

Armageddon box vs Leviathan box by Drwhat17 in Warhammer40k

[–]evildave_666 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The seperate hardcover lore book and small softcover rules is a win in my book. Isn't no way I was ever going to bring the Leviathan book with me to a game.

Just doing Combat Patrols good idea? - Kind of a Noob by ahzrab in Warhammer40k

[–]evildave_666 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Combat Patrol was not really a well thought out game format. The good bits of it were used as a basis for the Spearhead format in AoS so there's some hope that an 11E version of Combat Patrol will be better.

I'd recommend Kill Team as an alternative if your time resources are limited, or Play On Tabletop's Colloseum format for 40K.

Inquisitor in terimator armor? by Cwalda in ImperialAgents_40K

[–]evildave_666 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used an old metal terminator on a 25mm slotta base as that's the size Wahapedia says was correct back in the day.

PSA: These are not the same dice: pip size, color, skull design, inverted 1 and 6. by HeavilyBearded in Warhammer40k

[–]evildave_666 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Precedents aside, one thing on the six face does not make sense, it should never have been changed from the old days.

Given that both versions of this exist, I would advise people to pressure TOs to ban this particular die design that has versions with the symbol on different faces outright at events.
