You know, there aren't many things I'd consider more unattractive than playing WH40K, but advancing into the machine guns at the Somme would certainly be worse. Although not as boring  :lol:

Quote from: "GregX999"
When complaining about WH40K in the past, I've always said "It plays like WWI trench warfare... a general advance with no tactics, no supression, just run like hell straight towards the enemy while blazing away at whatever you can see."

Yeah, I think it would be a good ruleset for that war...

Allright, that's actually a valid point.  :lol:

40K would never work for the 17-18 period though whem armies actually learned how to fight. Perfect for the Somme however- provided you like bloated, 80's games.
