Her Name's Viera! (Round Two)

Hello everyone, and welcome to another post of wondermazingly splendiferous proportions.  So a long while back I'd written an article on the good old Devastator units from each space marine codex.  With the shifting rules of 6th, I thought it'd be interesting to do a follow up on another of the heavy support choices that really benefits from 6th's new rules.  The biggest of the Big Guns ye olde Space Marines can bring to the table.  The Vindicator!

HAVE YOU SEEN THIS STOLEN MINI?

Well it's all summed up pretty much by the title and the picture.  I found this article making a plea to the decency of the 40k community in an attempt to return this commission painted mini to its rightful owner.  If you've seen the model, the contact information is above.

If you have a 40k blog, I'd urge you to place this picture there.  With any luck, we can see the model returned.  It's a sad day when ones models are snatched away by those less honorable players.  Hopefully we can play a part in rectifying this.

Cheers!

A Second-Hand, First-Hand Impression

So I have been looking at the rule book of Heretic, watching discussion unfold on the Wartrukk, and have been reading article after article on the community websites about 6th edition.  Regardless of how people have been treating their initial responses, everyone has seemed to latch onto the idea that the game has indeed gone through a pretty major change.

People have been finding the inevitable holes in the rules which accompany just about any edition change.  No matter how you slice it, 40k has a lot of rules, and 6th did nothing but expand that rule even more so.  It's not a strange occurrence to see some issues come about from these.  Mawloc's vs. Fliers, The conundrum of missing Skyhammer Missiles, and of course the new learning of mechanics like torrent and multiple fire modes.

The Point with 40,000 Problems

So, I think that what's taken the most time out of my 40k conceptual matrix is that the distinction between 1999 and 2000 is completely and utterly stupid.

Deathwing in 6th Edition

In essence, this is a continuation of the previous article concerning where Deathwing currently stands in relation to other armies, as well as what to do with Allies.  To start, here is the 2000 point list that I currently use:
