I was on the warhammer forum and read this post, really couldn't believe it was serious but who knows.
http://warhammer.org.uk/phpBB/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=83686

I was impressed that the response was sympathetic, mostly and constructive. It looks to me as 8th Ed has made finally Special Characters not so OTT. haha. Although I suppose it's depends on how you use them, could be a significant factor. biggrin.gif
Certainly not something you'd ever see in 7th ED.

Honestly, teaspoon of cement. No, wait, that's Warmachine I'm thinking of.
Really though, if the 'challenge' rule is dragging you down, you need to play better. Unit champs, cheap characters, no issues. I didn't read all the feedback, but the guy sounded like an idiot.

Negative. I don't find challenges that big a deal (although you have to watch for VHS...)

So the dude is complaining about a fundamental rule that governs his army, and his total and utter ignorance of how it affects his game...

Genius.

Best quote ever Rojo: Being reduced to leadership 2 on Saturday night at Castle Assault and failing my Aura of Madness test from 6" away from the Jabberslythe whilst a Vampire Count watched on in the background.

From deep within the misty mountains sprang forth a goblin like no other. Tales of his beauty spread far and wide as did many a maiden. But all this was not to last and as in time he ran out of maidens to conquer and rather then convert he decided to look for fresh conquests. His name was Syphilis the Ladykiller and many a goblin flocked to his banner with the promise of wine, women and song. As news of his Waaaaaagh spread many of the armies of the old world gathered to protect their maidens virtues and in the case of the high elves all their virtues.
