Sup /tg/, newfag to the 40k tabletop here. After some last minute Christmas shopping, I found that I had quite a bit of left over cash and decided to start my involvement in the tabletop game, rather than just video games and books, and bought myself a Cadian Battleforce along with the Codex. I've started assembling and painting, which is going well thanks to some threads I lurked the past couple of months, though I do have a couple of questions.
1.) Do 200pt games happen often? I see a lot of mention of 1000pt games, which I would love to do, but I'd much rather get some experience on a smaller scale before investing more money into something I might not have too much fun with.
2.) Will the rulebook give me a good idea on how to play? I've gone over the Codex and have the special units for the guardsmen in there down, and I've watched a couple games, though I'm still rather confused as to how rounds "work" so to say.
Otherwise, general IG thread.
