Basement or Store: The State of Our Game

Alright folks, today we've got another Editorial on our hands, but this time with a little less rant. I want to know what environment you play in. Do you play in a store, in tournaments, or in your shed with your buddies?

X-Wing Battle Report

What's that? You sense a disturbance in the force? Could it be that great, big, hulking Decimator flying right at us?!

DIY Rules for 40k: Editorial Rant

Alright, engage rant.

I am so fricking sick of hearing people trot out the same crap. You can't go a day without someone bitching about how X army is broken or Y army hasn't been updated in years or the whole game is completely useless and not playable (though the fact that the vast majority of gamers play this game would suggest it is). It's not balanced, it doesn't match the fluff, it's not designed for tournaments, there aren't enough FAQs, it's not play-tested or it's not realistic.
