Ok, so as promised, here are the proposed limits / rules for our multi-player battle next week:

Armies:

• 600 points per side
• Minimum 1 HQ and 2 Troops
• Limit of 1 for each other category (eg you may only include a maximum of 1 heavy support – although you don’t have to take one at all)
• Limit of one rending weapon per army
• No limit on the number of Troops choices

Mission:

• Capture a building in the centre of the board – using rules for scoring units (unless there are none left that qualify on any side, in which case I’d suggest we just count the number of models within the building form each side)
• The building itself may be defended by Chaos – I believe I heard mention of a Daemon Prince – I hope I heard wrong!

Deployment:

• So we are not too close to each other at the start, each army deploys in a square area in the corners of the board (2 boards together make a 4ft x 4ft playing area)
• The only question left is how big for these areas. I was thinking 9inch x 9inch square, as this should mean the serious scrapping for the objective would begin by turns 2/3. Any thoughts on this point? – Particularly if you don’t think your army could fit into a space that size on deployment (I think mine probably could, but Tim’s…)

the size of the area seems ok (as there is still 30 inchnes between players)

yes there will be a daemon prince holding the objective :D
just so that people can prepare this is what he will be equiped with

daemon prince - wings - mark of nurgle - gift of chaos (so hopefully i will been creating a few spawn out of peoples commanders :D)

In that case... EVERYONE USE A WEAK COMMANDER!!!

Unless of course this is a cunning plan...... He's actually going to turn up with a psychotic Khorne killing machine...

hey people.
i must say this idea sounds quite coolio. However, you may have some problems arising particularly with the chaos side of things (i play a mark specific army).

So far with all my tweeking etc i can barely manage the 2 troops and 1 HQ let alone field enough points to make my army anywhere near competable.

Heres the dealio foolio's!
With 600pts it's a great idea in retrospect. It has the ability to be a really fun game which could end up being quite interesting. But.. the cheaper the units the more that can be fielded.

This is why either some kind of guard Dark Eldar or Nid army has got this one in the bag.

A suggestion is that you maybe lower the pre-requisits to maybe 1 HQ and 1 Troop choice to make the game somewhat more fair for highcosting armies such as mine. =]

oh yes it will jimmy lol

@McPhee - for the guard it costs 360pts for the basic 2 troops and hq and thats with out ANY upgrades. therefore your 20 marines would kick the living crap outta them.

were doing a little quick game because were playing dark hersey after

which mark do you play? as you should be able to get 2 troops and hq in easily. unless your bearding the tits outta them

well then there is the problem lol. plus a squad of plauge marines with the upgrades uv've said (and if u've taken a champ) only comes to 206pts
1 troop for the guard would consist of
10 man infantry platoon - grenade launcher - vox - 80
10 man infantry platoon - grenade launcher - vox - 80
5 man command squad - vox - 50

there for making the one troop cost 210
meaning that your 7 men (who would last longer any way) and actually cheaper than the cheap guys

You guys should check out the official 40k in 40 mins rule from gamesworkshop thats a well balanced system for small 40k games. I think its a 400pts game but it has full rules and restrictions so that people cant make over beardy armies that no one can beat. Just an idea i thought you guys might be interested in, or if your making your own rules up make sure once you have play tested them a few time you post them on the forums for all to see :D
