So, I was in my local game shop and had a brief look at the the Warhammer/40K miniatures games. While it does look to be an interesting and exciting hobby, I must admit that the books left me feeling a little intimidated. How would rate the ease of play?
Also, while I was impressed with the work that Fantasy Flight Games has done with the Warhammer 40K rpg, the Warhammer rpg gave me pause. My understanding is that FFG is a company that focuses on boardgames and card games, and it seems as though they took an rpg (Warhammer) and have turned it in to a board/card game. I have nothing against board/card games, it's just not a format that I'm used to. Has anyone had any experience with this game? I am eagerly awaiting the release of Black Crusade. "KILL! MAIM BURN!" |
