Yes, you still need to take the test, as they are further away. Don't fret, Leadership tests aren't that much of a hassle. I play Imperial Guard and passing those tests is easy! Okay, I make use of the Leadership rule for the Imperial Guard. If you really want to pass the test with your Tau, I'd suggest investing into a Command & Control Node.

I reckon it would be cool if there was an online warhammer 40k and you get to make your own character from any army and you could train up its level and stats

would be difficult to make work in the scales that make 40k great, as it's difficult to have mass battles online often especially with everyone having custom characters. It would work very well as a Necromunda online game (Begging to be made) or even Inquisitor.

A Necromunda game could best be described as a mix between "Riddick - Escape from Butcher Bay", F.E.A.R. and the R-rated sections of Vampire Bloodlines. Another game really screaming for a digital version is Gorka Morka really, that game has a great violence and laugh factor built in.

Fear not, someday soon I will have graduated from school and while I may be an IT-helpdesk flunky, in my spare time I have been working on penning together the ultimate 1st person 40k experience! Already twenty pages strong and only scratching the surface, damn I'm so cunning sometimes that only I can see it!

Sounds like fair reason to indulge in a bit of chin stroking and saying 'good....good' in a sinister fashion, i'd venture.

I'd grow a goattie and wear a codpiece, that's how good it would be. Of course, not every mind is as aligned or bright as mine, those will be needing extra persuasion. Where is that Eurocorp Persuadertron (tm) when you need it!

I wish to join the Warhammer 40k crew, as I see it as an great opportunity to cleanse even some more hearts of all thoughts of... well... in fact... everything! I will add the 'Warhammer 40k Crew' sig, and, as an addition, also add the Ta'Lissera text, to prove that I am a Tau commander and not an Imperial Regiment Officer.

For those ignorant sub-spieces and xenos that does not know what Ta'Lissera is; the Ta'Lissera is roughly translated to either bonding or marriage, when a group of Tau fire warriors have fought alongside each other in in dozens of battlefields, hardened by the winds of war and bullets who have passed through the flesh, having seen the blood flow on the ground and heard the screams of million warriors and civilians in the endless fire and pain of war, they can decide to make a bond. The bonding ritual is most oftenly the decided group leaders (or possibly Shas'ui) duty and is performed by cutting the sept markings into the chest of every single tau fire warrior with a ceremonial knife. The bonding knife is then carried whenever the team goes to battle by the group leader, and the Tau knows that they have sworn to whatever happens, always be along each others side.

No, but there are all to many people who are. I excpected you to know what a Ta'Lissera is, but I don't excpect everyone to. There is always someone who are an 'ignorant sub-spiece' and a lot of people who are not.

Well, start by dropping this crap act of acting all enlightened first, as it's not making you friends any time soon.

In other news, did any of you bizarro bull-dykes manage to get your hands on the Imperial City thing yet? Those panels are big enough to create Inquisitor themed buildings.

It seems Black Libarary is having a clearout sile. The Sabat Crusades is down by 20% and a shit load of books t-shirts little Emblems and Icons and a lot of junk going for penny's.

But there also still struggling with acquiring stock a lot of books are out of print and the little memorabillia is often out of stock.

And where is the Horus Heresy novels. Do you see Horus Heresy novels cause I don't. Where are they I ask. Is it so much trouble that I ask for a great novel in Warhammer history and here they are having a clearance sale? The nerve of black library sometimes.

And I should know from first hand experience. I was robbed of those books. Bastards said they were on hold. For who? I want to know and this out of print crap is so outrageous why can't I get my W40K books!? Damn you C.S Goto.

The Horus Heresy books sold really good, hence they are out of stock for a short while. My advice is to get them the moment they are released.

Maybe you could attempt to befriend a GW Staffy to gain precious shipping knowledge, although the ones in my local have become a bit shirty in recent days. Must be the enforced Part-time hours. Or maybe they just recognise me as the one who says things about them being 'shirty' online.

Irritating as the difficulty to obtain the book is, it'll be worth the wait if the first chapter online is anything to go by. I've just obtained another book that's almost impossible to get here, The Gospel of the Flying Spaghetti Monster. I look forward to seeing whether it can be theologically compatible with my Cult of the Emperor beliefs. It would be spiritually enlightening for me to enjoy dressing as a pirate and having every friday off as a religious holiday, combined with the holy slaughter of the Xenos threat and general Imperial goodliness.

Cheer up if you hurry you can still get Horus Rising its sort of a prequal to the Heresy back when Horus was the Emperor's favorite son and leader of the Luna Wolfs. In the days when worshipping even the Emperor as a God was forbidden.

You should take a lord with a rock hard combat retinue, but a Haemonculi is also a good choice. Just be careful with the combat drugs, as they will backfire.

As for elites, go with Wyches of course, but do mount them in a transport as they are quite vulnerable otherwise.

Greetings, even though I did play in the beta of Dawn of War I still havn't picked up the game, and I was wondering if it is too late to buy it, does the gold edition really cost 30$ and if the LAN is any good. (if there is any)

I'm looking for a new RTS game and this is my first pick after finding out that C&C First Decade doesn't have LAN and Internet anymore.

You can still buy it. As for pricing, go check yoru store, not this multinational group of people from around the world that do not all share the Dollar.

The First Decade has multiplayer options, I got it myself, but for the single player. The First Decade is nothing more then the first ten years of Command and Conquer (With the exclusion of Sole Survivor) packed together onto a nice DVD.

I agree, Warhammer 40000 rules! I am an experienced Space Marine Player and a new Tau player. I think there should be more things like mock interview and shooter games as Fire Warrior was frankly crap.
