Wargamer here. A player at one of my games decided to spend a rather good chunk of money on some artisan ruler. Now, this player knew that I always handed out red whippy sticks to use from gamesworkshop that are "fair" as possible.

Now he is upset that I am not letting him use his gay little ruler and forcing him to use ugly ass gamesworkshop still.

What would you do with a little shithead who thinks his fancy ruler matter when they are obviously not the right length?

How DARE this player use anything other than something that claims to be accurate beyond any reasonable requirement for a hobby? BAN HIM!

OP here. I have experiences in the past with people who bended their rulers and other Bullshit. Yes it is a very tough wargame and playing like you got a pair is something I'm not afraid of.

The reason is simply for fairness and also there is no need for cosmetic DLC in a tabletop game. If I let him use his unfair ruler that he has full access to rig and file down, it becomes P2W.

This is the exact same bait thread from a couple days ago about the dice. OP should kill himself

its not though. costing money isn't the same as p2w.

Tape measure is objectively the best way to do it. Rulers and the red whip sticks gw gives you are too firm. A tape measure is much easier to use.

>>51281264
a squad DV tacticals equipped as shown costs about the same amount of points as a riptide, but the power of the two units is vastly different, as are the price in dollars.
>>
>>51284701
That's just because the riptide is a big mini and GWs pricing can be inconsistent.

I could spend even more money on a box of carnifexs which would also cost more points but get stomped on by the cheaper riptide.
Theres good stuff thats cheap and good stuff thats expensive as well as expensive or cheap crap units.
There's no relation between the monetary cost and the effectiveness of a unit/army in 40k, so its not pay to win.

>one expensive model is bad, therefore the entire system isn't pay to win
kirby really fucked things up

in any of the non-shit tier factions, the expensive models are usually also stronger for the points than the cheap models
>>
>>51284988
it's not just one. Most tyranid MCs and a lot of tanks and walkers a pretty luck luster.

but no its not pay to win. because the cost of a kit is no idication of how good it will perform on the table.

If it was pay to win the best armies would be the most expensive, rather than cheap to midrange cost that they actually are. While stuff like ork swarm or nidzilla is both crazy expensive and terribly perfoming.
