@aptshadow here's a funny story, I had a meeting with a colleague yesterday, and told him that I realised who he reminded me of - that he could play a younger Adrian Tchaikovsky.

"He sounds familiar... wait, he wrote the books with all the spiders, right?"

I think the last time I played 40k was in 6e, then detachments started happening and it collapsed under its own weight.

8e looked interesting, but seemed to struggle with balance due to too many layers of rules, and 9e just doubled down on that.

If 10e (which is a given for this year) pares back some of the rampant complexity then I might actually dive back in. Might.

I crumbled a stock cube into some water, stirred it as normal, seemed ok. Started pouring, and as soon as there wasn't 100% of it in the jug, it all vanished entirely leaving no trace.

I was a little confused, until I realised that I had used a Boolean cube by mistake.
