40k is about as valid as it can be for a space opera universe with lots and lots of guns.
fantasy is fantasy, porting non-realistic rules over is something i dont like
I played Dark Elves a few years back, had a lot of fun, dead High elves everywhere. but 40k is far more dear to my heart. (i love modern/futuristic weapons and warfare as opposed to days of old. just my opinion no offense to LOTR/WHFB players out there, unless you are one of those snobby aces who are so "superior" to us 40k players. if you are , then pm me, tell me 1) why you are here on FOURTY-KAY-terra, 2) would you like my DElves to make you a pin cushion or slices of meat)
haha jk about that last part :P
but i started DElves because of a friend who played only WHFB got me into the GW hobby
and he also thought his game was far far far better ( and consequently him to us )
he hated 40k with a near-repentia-level fervor.
havent talked to him since end of 8th grade ^^ haha
bolt throwers? heck. I'd side with the .75 calibur self propelled armour penetrating mass reactive explosive shells anyday
again, just my opinion, no offenses meant |
