    234: Not That There's Anything Wrong With That

    The mod, while interesting in approach, is one that I haven't played myself but I do not think it would appeal to me. Not in so much that the character is gay (as it comes up only at the beginning from what I understand) but that the game-play itself is not what I seek. But that being said you...

    Poll: What 40k games need to be made?

    I agree that taking another game and then slapping the 40K universe on it would be less then ideal. The 40K world is rich enough that we can have different styles of games out of it. I would love to see a digital version of Battlefleet Gothic with the 'hot seat' feature of the Bloodbowl...

    Who would be the victor in the 40K universe?

    Like it has been said before, the war in 40K is endless because all the sides are balanced. They also have over 16 years of backstory that was written and re-written across the versions. I've personally played all the sides in the game, including a squat army under Rogue Trader, so I feel I...
