I should have just said no but I went ahead anyway. God dammit. I even heard about this guy's knight list from other store-goers, but when I had first met him he was running KDK and seemed like a chill dude (still seems nice but...). Anyways:

>Other guy who I had met before comes up, looking concerned
>tells knight guy, "dude are you really gonna bring like 3 knights to a 1k point game"
>ends up lending me his 2 dreadknights because he felt bad
>game start, 3 knights on the table (two short ones and the tall guy)

>send a rhino with a plasma tac squad up the field a little
>DKs and knight shoot it out a little
>rhino takes a hit, -1 HP
>his knights advanced to take out my servo skulls

Next I did something really dumb. Being a noob, for some reason I thought you rolled for reserves all at once instead of by each unit. I rolled a 1 and kept all my melta scions in reserves. No one caught my mistake and I didn't realize it until my DK friend mentioned it later.

>DKs assault back knight, murderzone him
>Tall knight and little knight shoot up the Chimera (immobilized), Rhino (dies) and Taurox (dies)
>tall knight assaults DKs, begins dunking them
>luckily I had to leave for something and bailed out at that point

Fuckin A.

>>47615738
>>he says 1850
Immediate warning bells go off when you hear this guys. 1850 is faggot tier points.

>knight guy budges in, essentially forces us to play him
No, man up and tell him to fuck off with his noise

>3 knights to a 1k point game
Please tell me you took this kid out back and beat his ass

> No one caught my mistake
Because not having your meltas shoot their knights is better for them. 100% if you rolled for them to arrive they would have mentioned you did it wrong
>>
>>47615843
Yeah. You're right. Looking back on it, I kind of thought I could take him since we'd houseruled that my 4 scion squads were all melta command squads.

But if I won, then we'd have a knight player claiming his army was underpowered because it got rekt by stormtroopers.

Most tourney groups (easily spotted by their house rules and an acronym name) play at that point value.
That means all the opponent is doing is playing at list literally printed from the internet from matches that give new meaning to WAAC faggots.
Rarely, it's the point value of a FLGS, but it's pretty much only that if they are tourney fags.
So basically, if you wanna play a game and your opponent says the point value should be 1850, look over what they are bringing. Even if you already agreed to play and are in the middle of setting up, if the faggot puts down infinite eldar bikes, wraithknights, grav spam or an invisible deathstar, decline the match.
If your opponent asks why, you can say the game isn't worth your time (because it will be literally 0 fun for you to get crushed) and/or you don't play against WAAC min maxed meta tourney lists for pickup games in the same why you don't punch yourself in the face for fun.

Also, we might summon the tourney fags and their houserule spouting by talking about this. Please ignore them, they are a plague and a cancer on the game.

You should play whatever everyone is comfortable with.
One guideline: More points means less min maxing can occur, because you have more points for more answers.
My FLGS standard is 2k, but that's just what we are used to. You wouldn't think 150 extra points means much, but considering that's basically another answer to something I might encounter, that's good.
Try out other points values, 2k is good, 2.5k, 3k as well. Then downgrade, try 1.5k and 1k. See which of the points values you guys enjoy more.
Odds are, you'll want more points for more toys. Just keep in mind too many points can make the game take too long.

1500 is the secret best point level.

Say I want to try convince my friends to let me run corsairs occasionally, because according to them, they don't want to let me run it because Corsairs have a different perils table and their own Psyker powers, and that they "let you use the best of both armies" (actual quote referring to Craftworlds and Dark Eldar). Would I use the 2nd edition Doom of Mymera from the mega? Or is there a better scan that I can use because it might not come out good if I print pictures of pages. I want to print out the pages and make a physical "codex" for them to read on their own. Or what could I do to make them stop thinking that Corsairs are more broken than Craftworlds. Because I know the second I play with my DE, and get SLAUGHTERED, they'll be like "oh it's just the dice bro".

See, I don't even want legion rules. I just want a mid-tier army with fluffy, solid rules that don't leave my scratching my head and wondering what the fuck they were thinking. I want a way to be able to play fluffy word bearers, or thousand sons, or night lords, or red corsairs, or whomever. If they can do that without legion rules, whatever, more power to them.

Meanwhile, I still have no fucking clue why daemonic possession is something you'd pay points for, why mutilators are S&P, why Khorn Berserkers aren't any better than khorne marked CSM, why there's no deep strike mitigation in the army beyond the Key, and a host of other shit.

No, not that much blood. If you're shitting that much blood, even if it is haemorrhoids, they are substantially troublesome they need to be looked at.

You should not be shitting blood. Tearing you ass? That should be a few dabs on the paper. Not filling the bowel and making the water turn red.

If your bowel looks like that, even once, go get checked. If it happens lots of times, you could be in trouble. I'm not memeing or trying to scare you, but that isn't a normal amount of blood. Perhaps it is haemorrhoids, but I'd get checked. Paper? Yes. Bowel + Shit? No.

Yeah. They have proper machines and equipment. Dunno how they started. This is a 2nd hand board, I think it sold for £1000. So, $1450? It's 6x2 I think.

So, if you got ability, then you need to find some capital. Perhaps you can start small with terrain bits and bombs. My mother, when I was A LOT younger, built me a board and terrain for my CSM. It's fantastic. Too small for my collection now, but I prob wil never get rid o fit. She has always said she would love (if she was a lot younger and healthier) make terrain and boards for people as she loves doing that stuff.

So, if you enjoy it, do that. Start small, make a name, find some like minded people, or a guy/gal with some money and get going. Or join a pre-existing group and offer your abilities.
