This is probably due to PP having a smaller player base, but, that served me well as a newbie.Īll games have jerks in them - don't pay them too much mind I had the main PP guy around here literally walk me through the game and foster me through the process where the 40k players observed my entry into the hobby with casual disinterest. In my personal experience the PP scene was more adoptive of me starting out than the 40k scene. That doesn't necessarily mean those players will lose - they can win every game and still be poor players. There's always going to be poor players, no matter what game you play. More or less the main suggestion is to get a deep understanding of the varied units in the game and their interactions with each other. It's worth noting however, that in basically every notable instance the winners of major events are nice guys who don't rage over every detail or suggest only "competitive builds". There's an obvious difference on the PP forums themselves between the "casual" players and "competitive" players as well. Clearly, Privateer needs to cater more to the alcoholic portion of its fanbase. Just observing how unfair it is that being drunk hurts your chances of winning a game. Wouldn't fathom playing in an adepticon warmahordes tourney. I like drinking while I play in the adepticon 40k TT. You went to a national level tournament and it was highly competitive? Say it ain't so! I typically play Warmahordes with 2 or 3 friends that have similar time constraints to me, and in that setting the game is really enjoyable for me. For me, I prefer more casual competition, and for me, I've found that more often playing 40k. As such, I'm at a significant disadvantage just walking into the game. I simply don't have the time to know every combo possibility for every Warmahordes army I could face. I don't have to study anyone else's army to do so. I like being able to drink during the Adepticon TT and relatively competitive. However, based on my experiences (and bear in mind I play in the Adepticon Team Tourney every year), I find that Warmahordes tournaments are far more aggressivly competitive to play in, to the point the fun goes away. I can have 35 points of a warmahordes army for the same price as a 1000pt WH40K army (and even then, I have to pinch pennies)Ĭincydooley wrote:Don't get me wrong I don't mind the competition. It's that you need far fewer minis, and the "heavies" cost more in 40k than Warmahordes where the price difference pops up. Anyway even if this nonsense comes true, GW probably makes three quarters of there money out of pre pubescents anyway. People will always like 40k, it has some of the best background and most user friendly miniatures of all the miniature wargaming industry. People rat on about GWs popularity slipping, PP is going to take the spotlight, they're just nerd ragers. Zilegil wrote: 40k is practically made for twelve year old children. I mean £25 for a 10 piece unit of mcdonalds thralls to the £13 of a box of ork boys. Although that could be because I'm a brit and also my local miniature bargain bucket stocks 40k cheaper than Warmahordes. Although that is following quite closely to the background of the Iron Kingdoms.Īlthough I have to say price wise 40k and PP seem about the same.
I love the style of list building with Warmahordes, the fact it is so easy to make themed fluffy lists. I mean 40k has many restrictions that I don't like too, though. 40k has sort of bread and butter tofu HQs that you can print your own background into. My main decrepancy with Warmahordes is that it is hard to personalise and 'count as' your units, every caster has a set background. I hope they end out having a more beautiful albeit metal range than GW, a bit like Malifaux.
I like PP, but they have quite a way to go. 40k is practically made for twelve year old children.
