What annoys me with other forums is that if you are new, you often get jumped on by established members, who know all their is to know, and often have fixed ideas on how good/bad something is.
What I like about coming here is that people will reply to your posts without imediately going X is poor, use Y instead.
Rufus, I don't think there is such a thing as "the wrong weapon" in 40k. The newer books tend to have very little rubbish in them.
