boys and....boys? You mean to tell me that you do not have one female 40K player in the league.

Matthew G Tue Jan 26, 2010 4:37 pm

To my knowledge. No. Lol

Paz Tue Jan 26, 2010 4:43 pm

Urlec= Nope. Though the fact you find that hard to believe is... hard to believe. There are women who play 40k, but it ain't like its common.

Sorry I got off the topic of the post....

Not so hard to believe Paz I know a number of female players back home. My girlfriend got her own tau army and wants to start playing again when she finishes getting it built up. Any problem if I bring her along one night?

Paz Tue Jan 26, 2010 5:17 pm

Yes.

Of course not, its cool. I know Greg's wife (candace) has played a few games, and there are one or two fantasy warhammer female players. If she makes any of the guys uncomfortable, then they need to put their dice down, and go out into the light for a bit.

I've tried to get my fiancee to play, but, though she encourages my hobby, she shows little interest in gaming.

i think 40k is more of a boys club. There are exceptions, but you can not honestly tell me that lots of girls play 40k.

Guest Tue Jan 26, 2010 5:23 pm

Not alot no. Mabe 10 -1 back home and thats being generous. In a group this big I just assumed there would be some. Anyway back on topic. I would love to go to the pa tourn. but I can't so I won't. But now that I know about it I will be there next time.

Im the same way. My Girlfriend wouldn't ever try playing.. These games are not of her interest, but she doesnt stop me from playing, nor bashes the hobby at all.

I am in your boat. I tried to rope my wife in with the painting side, as she already paints weird crafts (like lightbulbs and stuff). She wouldn't do it. I even tried the 'couples activity' argument. Didn't fly.

Veyure Wed Jan 27, 2010 8:22 am

My wife loves to paint models. she even asks to play occassionally. It's tough for us to both get out and play however due to the baby. So she hasnt played inm a while. she has a witchhunter army.

smackman Wed Jan 27, 2010 4:06 pm

man, lucky bastards, my last girlfriend gave me nothing but grief about warhammer (see how that turned out for her, high fives? lol) and my current girl rags on the hobby even more...

Paz Wed Jan 27, 2010 4:24 pm

My last gf ragged on 40k. But she liked stargate sg1, so her opinion on cool was null and void. Dumped her like a truck amirite guys? *highfives Tom*

Veyure Wed Jan 27, 2010 5:00 pm

Hey Paz, wasnt it also because she never put out? thats a long time to go without love...

You kids shouldnt understand me either.... if you want to know what love im talking about, ask a priest...

Now that deserves high fives.

Paz Wed Jan 27, 2010 5:07 pm

*goes for highfive, converts it into a crotch-punch*

You may be right Greg, you may be right. But lets keep it TA on the forums dude

I am a recovering WoW addict, and am using 40k as the replacement. My wife HATED WoW. Not regular hate, either. We are talking some Old Testament, fire & brimstone-style hate. If I am painting little army dudes and spending the occassional Wednesday at the Den, she would never give me grief. Wink

Its because we are all so psyched for the torunie Ben, no worries!

smackman Thu Jan 28, 2010 3:03 am

I wouldn't worry about it ben, I've been painting all month for this tourney, and still have another 20 marines to go.

I hear you man, I havent played for almost two years now, and even when I was playing it wasnt crazy or anything. However, my wife HATED it. .. I think it was simply the whole can;'t pause it, cant getoff the computer until somethingid done (raid, instance). For whatever reason, she just hated it. Anyway, life became much more enjoyable post WoW. Ive got a few friends that still play.. alot.

Guest Thu Jan 28, 2010 12:24 pm

I used to play WoW almost all the time... it was bad

I eventually got to replacing it with Magic, Warmachine, 40k, drinking, friends, and stuff.

Its jsut a matter of finding something else to do in my opinion, hopefully something that involves other people.

Matthew G Fri Jan 29, 2010 10:35 am

Okay, an on topic question here.

Since imperial armor and special characters are allowed in the PAWG. Would I be allowed to bring and use the forgeworld Shas'o R'ymer?
or would I be able to take the optional suit upgrades if I have the models to represent it? Ex: the xv89 suit upgrade from imperial armor 3 torros campaign?

System Commander Fri Jan 29, 2010 11:43 am

Does he have an IA entry? It would have to be an actual entry from an IA book, and not the experimental rules presented on the FW site.

At least that's my take on it. You could PM Ben though for an official ruling.
