XENOS VESSELS
Xenos crew numbers are not known. Data like "hordes of boys and grots" is... less than helpful. But amusing. Assume there to be plenty of Orks, and hardly any Eldar.

I approve of these numbers.

KROOT
Warsphere battleship: spherical, 9km diameter, 47 mTon, 300.000+ kroot

Like I said in another topic:
Nothing like smashing a huge spherical craft in other sleek spacecraft.

I wonder if they ever find enough parking space?

Normally, I would have no problems with these numbers, but I know one of the writers for ffg, an ex blogger called Mac.

A greater neckbeard there never was, but he insisted that matt ward was a visionary, andy chambers was stupid and that bfg ruined the 40k setting....oh and that codex creep did not exist.

This is why I avoid ffg.

[afterimagedan]

I know him well too. He was the guy who would show up to any local GW just to argue with the employees about the game systems. He would try to persuade regulars into playing his version of 40k. I have a really hard time talking to him.

[Sigoroth]

Ah, thanks, this just validates my instant dislike of all things FFG.

[horizon]

lol,
Mac who? So I can verify this in the book.

Andy Chambers written & developed Battlefleet Koronus with FFG.

And yes, I very much prefer the Lunar is 3km setting.

FFG does write very good/cool background things, and they do produce some pretty cool games.
And GW "blessed" them to work with their IP.

Chaos added.

[Ruckdog]

Ah, thanks, this just validates my instant dislike of all things FFG.

Eh, to each his own, I guess. I thought the HH board game and Death Angel card game were well done. Overall, I felt that BF Chronus was great too, although I agree with Horizon that the lengthening of the IN cruisers was unfortunate.
