Author Archives: Alternate 40k Rules

A revamped Core Rulebook just went live! It has been patched continuously for almost 3 years now and has been in desperate need for cleanup and modernization in format. We also hit 4000 man hours invested in this project! We are now nearly ready to produce the last Codexes after they undergo final trials. TheyContinue reading “6/2/24 Rebuilt Core Rulebook and 4000 Hours”

Greetings everyone! This week has had several interesting developments. First, to celebrate some fantastic news with a friend, we got together to do a quick 10th edition game. Due to dice rolls (and incredibly open play with units that should probably be more confined) the game ended on Turn 1 with what probably would haveContinue reading “5/19/24 Branching into a Supportive Community”

This week has been pretty quiet. Just working on updating the Core Rule Book with a cleaner format, FAQs, Designer Notes, and Advanced Rules for optional play outside of tournament settings. Getting there! I am working on getting caught up with my Cadian Regiment. I am finally near the end (until the next inevitable intakeContinue reading “5/12/24 Schaeffer’s Last Chancers Rework”

Greetings in the name of the Emperor! We have come a long ways from humble origins and have recently got a bunch of new followers and members on social media. I have also had a lot of people asking questions about what Alternate 40k Rules is and what it offers compared to official editions, bothContinue reading “5/5/24 What is Alternate 40k Rules?”

We got another Codex live! Genestealer Cults have passed our trials and are ready for your enjoyment. They bring a massive control dynamic to the battlefield, forcing you to decided between shooting GSC units or Terrain. They can also force you into awkward positions as you try to block all of their Emergence Holes andContinue reading “4/28/24 Genestealer Cult Codex Live! Custodes turn Herohammer!”

Big news! We have finally pushed the Chaos Undivided Codex and its supplements through the ringer enough times we believe it to be tournament ready! This has been a massive undertaking that has been play tested from almost the beginning. We wanted to be thorough and make sure that it did not break the gameContinue reading “4/14/24 Chaos Tournament Ready!”

This week has been pretty busy, but I found a couple of minor things in the way of old Imperial Guard models that were missed. First, Heavy Stubbers (the single, not 2 Linked version) has been moved to Special Weapons capacity. In the past they were for Heavy Weapon Teams because some old models hadContinue reading “3/24/24 Old Guard Weapons and a Resin Printer”

So I am a freaking idiot. For some reason I thought the Lord Solar Macharius model was a 30k era character. I never read any books with him and always saw him for sale with other Horus Heresy models when he did pop up. Timeline he is dead, but he very much was a 40kContinue reading “3/17/23 Lord Solar Macharius”

Its that time of the week again! Thanks to a question of a player who acquired a very old model, I realized I was missing a 2nd edition character! What blew my mind is this character is STILL an active Ork of substantial influence but does not have rules! Nazdreg Ug Urdgrub was even aContinue reading “3/10/24 Missing Ork Characters and Clan Supplements”
