Resource Warhammer 40,000 is a new style of play for the game we all love. It makes the game a lot more entertaining and fun to play! For the people that say Warhammer 40,00 is to easy, this version of play definately calls for a lot more strategy and planning ahead.

The Resource Warhammer 40,000 rules will now be hosted on an Alpha version of Tacticians Armoury (may have to copy into URL bar).

Things the site will have in awhile:
-A banner
-A Background
-A Custom Font
-A .com Address
-No Ads

All questions, comments, oppionions, and deep thoughts (or not so deep for some of us) are welcomed. If you test out a game of RWH40k, please tell me if you liked it and any changes you think would make it better. Also, feel free to make any Resource based scenarios and I will edit them in to this post.

Thanks for checking out RW40k,

I just had a friend over and we tested the RWH40k rules. It was EXTREMELY FUN! It required more strategy than a normal game. If you want an estimation on how many models you'll need, I'm going to guess it went from about 500-1500 Points in 8 turns. After we ran out of models we used paper squares.

After playing through the game, I changed some of the rules up a bit. Here is the list of changes:

-Resources are spawned using Deep Strike rules
-When to spend Resources
-When baught units arrive
-Bought units arrive using Deep Strike (even if it's not allowed)
-Miner Cost went up to 12 Points
-Mining Truck Cost went up to 125 Points
-Mining Truck Expertise Mining went up to 15 Points
-Amount of Resources gained went up for both units
-New weapons for Mining Units
-Mining Shield for Mining Units to make the game last longer
-Gain 5 Silver for models defeated in base contact
-Resource Style Scenario rules

I strongly reccomend experianced users playing this. It requires more strategy and planning ahead, but is also ALOT MORE FUN THAN NORMAL PLAY If you play a RWH40k game please tell me how it went and any changes you think I should make.

Thanks,

Any objections to my bodging a BFG version of these rules?

Go right ahead, just post a link back to this topic. So I take it you like the concept?

This really reminds me of Starcraft. It sounds quite fun. You could probably create a huge amount of other stuff too using other house rules. I'm going to try that out! Thanks for telling me!

Just a couple of miner things. A Change to the Bonus Silver rule. Resource Rates have changed yet again.

Your welcome Kireguy, I'm glad I could help put more jazz into your game
