That makes sense, and 4x4 is easier to get plenty of terrain on the table to!
Put me down for Sisters, or maybe Dark Angels (if I can get my hands on a Codex)
I am guessing I cannot use the Imperial Knight Codex.
As funny as it could be to see everyone play "run from the lone Knight before he stomps you", nope no knights in this sorry Dave.
We are at 14 then, forgot Sam in the update (apologies fella!) and with Dave rounds it out nicely at 14.
Dave, you can borrow my codex if you want. (dark angels)
Psychic powers.. depends how you want to play it...
personally as its a fun campaign it would be weird for the narrative to have Daemons on both good and bad sides.. so I would personally ban it Summoning powers from the 'good' side. I would say the evil side if allied with Choas and Daemons would use these to there advantage?
Invis is powerful, I would use a similar (which has just been taken away) way to how the uk tournament scene ran it, change the wording to reduce to BS1 and WS1 same as 6th ed invis, so that blasts can hit them and you're hit on 5's in combat, rather than snap.
Don't ban WC2+ powers.. thats to much imo, it stops some of the lesser powers like Fortune, Scriers Gaze, some of the pyromancy powers, etc. which don't need to be banned, a carpet ban on WC2 powers is too much.

I like the short list of limitation you have so far Vince.
Was gonna mention 4x4 tables as 500pt armies just become gun lines as no assault will ever take place on a 6x6 table
Fair enough, though as mentioned before I think invis should be "hit on 5's" in combat rather then WS1 otherwise it becomes an offensive buff as well.
Howdy all. I know we atill have abit to iron out in regards to 30k usage over on the other thread but wanted to chip in my two cents here.
As the rules stand i will struggle big time to fill in 2000 points with only one unit per FOC chart. As it stands (going cheap for 500 and then working it up) i can realistically get 1000 out of my units. I would personally prefer to see the highlander rules discussed earlier on in this thread. That being only one entry per unit. With the flyer, transport and psyker limitations as they currently are.
I will understand if people dont want this and i know im asking alot with bringing (hopefully) 30k aswell.
As i said just my thoughts. Sorry me raising this upends the apple cart so to speak.
Hydra Dominatus
Yeah, i think your right on the mark Rob, limit summoning to just Dark forces like chaos, maybe cap at one summon a turn for whole army to stop it becoming a proper Daemon factory lol.

Also while i'm on it, just spotted a Flyrant list lol, just as heads up i think wings are okay but at the low points level no flying mainly as most armies are gonna struggle to deal with FMC. 6's to hit, then 6's to wound with most weapons and only one grounding check a turn will be nasty lol. So wings will only count as jump packs till we reach 1000 Pts. Sound reasonable?
Looks good Vince, I will go with the Dark Eldar this time
