Every time I've played Apoc, I've hated it. There's nothing more mindless and chaotic than putting every single model you own on the table with a bunch of other guys.
To spare you guys of a full-on nerd rage, let me sum it up with bullet points:
- I don't have unlimited resources aka money to buy a billion tanks.
- The same can apply to time and energy to assemble a billion tanks.
- Both of these applies to buying, building, painting and putting a Titan on the field.
- There's nothing I hate more than moving a billion models. That's why I have things in transports and use a good amount of tanks. Now I don't know about you guys, but I don't have a tank for every 10-Marines I own. I would need something like 50 tanks.
- There's nothing more depressing than watching a 10-year old kid paint up his minis, put them on the table, and telling him to take them off because some a-hole on your team dropped a apoc-barrage on his mans.
- I hate those strategems that they use. What did it for me is the lack of actual control you have over the game when entire armies start outflanking from your side of the table.
- Speaking of structure, there's no such thing. I've seen 6 Grand Masters walk through 6 Hierodules because that's how we roll.
- Did I mention Apoc barrage and explosions? I was walking along side a friendly Baneblade before with my Marines and I went to the bathroom because the turn was taking forever. I came back to a giant ass crater and all my models relocated to the empty table next to me. Apparently, the Baneblade went critical and bad things happened.
- The time it takes to play a TURN. You might make it to 3 turns after a whole day.
What about you guys? The biggest apoc game in history is coming up and that should be a lolstorm to hear about.
