This is a general community for 40k miniatures, art, lore discussion, and gameplay discussion.
Rules
- Keep it civil.
- No memeposts/shitposts. Memes are great but direct them to grimdank.
- Please mark any posts containing realistic nudity or realistic excessive gore/violence as NSFW; this rule mainly applies to cosplay and realistic drawings rather than miniatures. Being that 40k is inherently violent, this is a judgement call, and mods may occasionally request posters add tags.
- No political or social cause agenda pushing.

MODERATORS
Definitely not a fan of fixed unit sizes.
Free wargear I'm a bit more undecided on. I like just getting to kit to the teeth, and using options that usually are rarely worth the point cost. I also like that it is just simpler/quicker... Buuut, as tyere will be objectively better options that will always get picked and I don't like not being able to just remove some equipment to fit a point limit and instead have to change whole units. The building blocks become much bigger, meaning list composition ends up more rigid which I don't quite like.
The thing about free wargear is that it's not actually that much simpler. You still have to decide which piece you're taking. The only thing they removed was the cost consideration of what you pick.
It is simpler. Instead of having to decide between an AP5 weapon or an AP2 weapon that's more expensive but otherwise identical, now you just take the AP2 weapon because it's objectively better than the AP5 weapon.
In this case simpler is not better.
