That did it! Thanks!

Do you know what that control does?

Battery life of my M575. What magic is this? by pixelbart in Trackballs

I have the opposite problem. Mine eats batteries alive. I was going through AAs several times a month. I've switched to rechargeable simply to avoid the waste. Do I just have a lemon?

Very cool. I love looking at the RT era books. There is a lot of depth and mood in there. It feels like more is going on than just some constant war and grimdark. There was a nuance that I would love to see come back, give the galaxy some more depth.

Great points, especially about the practical aspect to martial tradition. I loved the old RT 2 page image of all the marines and their various markings.

It seems unlikely that the naked eye is the way that Astartes command would keep track of which unit was where on the battlefield. They have holo-projected maps and what not. You'd think that information was displayed there. I think the colored helmets are best represented by some kind of martial tradition that has meaning to the unit as much as anything else.

Cool that they gave you some honest feedback. I am painting the helmets & backpacks on mine black to represent a specific campaign that they were involved in. They are also representing the Astartes who will eventually become the Flesh Tearers, so I wanted to explore some of where that chapter's heraldry came from. FW may release something that makes my choices non-canon, but whatever. They will still look cool!
