The guy at the GW store was super nice and walked me through playing the game versus his Space Marines. Other ways to score in the game was to get your minis on the other side of the map and also the person that eliminates the first mini in the game (first kill or first blood) gets 1 point as well. The player to keep the relic until the end of the game receives 3 points. The mission of the first game was to pick up the Relic in the center of the battlefield. My first game was with Tau (my army) Vs Space Marines.Ĥ00 points is basically the setup or point score of your minis before you go to battle. Almost everyone who plays seems to have at least SOME of their minis not painted fully yet. Here is a picture of the 400 Point Tau army that I used for my first game:Īs you can see, they’re not even fully painted yet which is no big deal. In fact, the other day was my very first ever game of 40k I played at my local gaming store.
