Yup. I have too. A 3-way 600pt game. QUick, dirty, and exceptionally bloody

The long 5000 pointers tend to drag out to much and in those huge battles my characters never seem to accomplish much:(

OSiriS

The length of games is why I never played much. Usually a 5000+ point game would take all day between picking armies, placing scenery/models then the battles themselves.

yeah 1000 pointer games or less is the way to go. Big games take too much set up and planning time.

po0k

Aye, 2 infantry squads and a HQ section.
Played through some tight scenery.

Some of my friends try out new army selections using epic minis, using the 40K rule system. its fun and simple- your army fits in your pocket and you can play anywhere... Cool stuff like IG tank companies and Eldar wind rider hosts-forgot which craftworld it is

the only change to the game is that all ranges are now cm instead of " .

Try it out or not?

I once took part in a 10k pointer game with orangerooster and all i can say is never again! it was spread over 2 days, the carnage was unbelievable!!! But by comparison the 40k in 40mins is very enjoyable:D
