A community dedicated to the universe of Warhammer 40k, a tabletop setting in the far, distant future.
This is a general community for 40k miniatures, art, lore discussion, and gameplay discussion.
Rules
- Keep it civil.
- No memeposts/shitposts. Memes are great but direct them to grimdank.
- Please mark any posts containing realistic nudity or realistic excessive gore/violence as NSFW; this rule mainly applies to cosplay and realistic drawings rather than miniatures. Being that 40k is inherently violent, this is a judgement call, and mods may occasionally request posters add tags.
- No political or social cause agenda pushing.

Huh. We can basically assume none of these profiles are "balanced" because otherwise they would just be tournament legal.
And I expect the vast majority of it to be strong. Why do all this work just for people to be disappointed the few times they try it?
So... this is for specifically pre-10th players facing other pre-10th players, or for pre-10th players facing opponents who don't know or care about game balance lol. Eh.
I would have preferred they release tournament legal profiles with a prescribed proxy list.
This is the exact same thing they've done for the past couple editions, so Legends as a thing isn't new. I see this more as, hey, these models are old as hell, aren't made anymore and we don't want to spend time making sure they're balanced for tournament play, so here's rules for you to play them in casual/Crusade games, have fun.
