Dustcrusher Posted July 28, 2015 Report Share Posted July 28, 2015 Not to get.... "off topic"... but between a couple of co-workers of mine, the nickname "Rocker" has another between them. For those of you who aren't as well acknowledged in MLB, there was a baseball player named John Rocker. He played for the Atlanta Braves during his better years, and was a very good closer during his time there, back in the 90's. One day, after a game against the Mets, he said during a post-game press conference (and I'm paraphrasing, so take it for what you will, please) that "he'd never want to take the subways in NYC, because he didn't want to catch AIDS from some faggot". Since then, he obviously earned the ire of just about every baseball fan in New York. In any case, now my co-workers joke around with the name "Rocker" as a reference to John Rocker, whenever they say anything that might even be slightly interpreted as bigoted, racist, or just ignorant in general (which is quite a lot). Anyways, back to the music discussion. I like rock songs of all kinds. That's my 2 cents. That guy sucks and always has. I was thinking more like "are you a mod or a rocker?" from the late 60s in the UK. I'm taking it back. Morning all. I'm greatly amused that this thread is still going! Wait...what?! Good to see you, man. I remember visiting Giga-Bites years ago and someone pointing out that you were there, but you looked like you were in the middle of a project that was annoying you in some way, so I thought it best to leave you alone. I had no cookies, either, which might have helped. I have a grudge match against a good friend this weekend with our 40k armies which should be good for a giggle, Ultramarines versus Word Bearers I could never play the Word Bearers. I'd be too busy alternating between old-school hip-hop jokes and televangelist impressions, which would annoy everyone else around... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rurouni Benshin Posted July 28, 2015 Report Share Posted July 28, 2015 That guy sucks and always has. I was thinking more like "are you a mod or a rocker?" from the late 60s in the UK. I'm taking it back. After he had surgery on his arm, he was never the same, but for a few seasons he was a very effective closer. Funny side story to that, about 6 or so years ago, I read about how he was playing for a minor league team out in Long Island. Funny how his career after the majors took him to a place like NY for another stint at playing. PS - In case anyone's wondering, New Yorkers still hate him.

Rurouni Benshin Posted July 28, 2015 Report Share Posted July 28, 2015 Yeah, but now he's out there with the rest of the white trash lol, I vaguely remember a comment from that same article about how a fan was heckling him during a game, and his response was (again, paraphrasing) "I'm still a millionairre, and you're a piece of shit!"

Rurouni Benshin Posted July 28, 2015 Report Share Posted July 28, 2015 Wow, looks really nasty. I'm not familiar with the newer codexes anymore, but seeing how some of these formations work, it definitely is enticing to expand. I've always wanted to play a fluff intensive Khorne army, but when put to practice, they were never that effective (at least back in 5th edition, anyway). In light of these recent changes, I may want to collect a few models, if anything just to build and paint. Daemons always appealed to me, in how their sculpts were made. Although the Fantasy line still has the best looking models, I've always enjoyed playing 40K more. After reading through the first 12 HH books now though, I have to say I'm more tempted to play a Thousand Sons army. Magnus was just a total badass. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whenever a unit dies (his or mine) he gains a Blood Tithe Point, at 5 points he can summon 8 Letters/5 Hounds, at 6 he can summon 3 Bloodcrushers/Skull Cannon, at 7 he can summon a Free Daemon Prince with wings and armour (and keep the characters artifacts) and at 8 he can summon in a Bloodthirster. The wargear each of the lords has increases his tithe by 1 for each kill in cc. The Axe of Ruin summons a Bloodthirster when the bearer dies.

Rurouni Benshin Posted July 28, 2015 Report Share Posted July 28, 2015 Very "shooty". It's a nice counter to the Khorne heavy list, actually. Granted I'm not familiar with Khorne strategy now, but back in the day, this would've been the "gun line list" to take against them. Your 5 man Assault Squad seems a bit out of place though... Was there a specific reason you included them, or were you just looking for points to fill at that point? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might put a power weapon on the Sgt as well, or maybe a Flamer on one of the regular Assault Marines, but that's just me. One of my favorite lists (and still is, actually) was the Drop Pod heavy list. Again, haven't read the most recent codex, but if they're at all similar to what they were in 6th edition, I'm sure they're still viable choices for strategy.

Rurouni Benshin Posted July 28, 2015 Report Share Posted July 28, 2015 So, question. If we just made our own Epic 40k game... or are there already rules? Are you referring to the actual game "Epic 40K"? Or are you just using "epic" in a general sense? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
