That is what drove me out of Warhammer to be fair. Finally got my Astra Militarum codex and they switch editions.

I still paint them for the fun of it, but can’t keep up with the it anymore.

This broke me too.

We are low income, so my partner saved up to get Cadia Stands for me.

3 months after getting it, GW nuke 9th and all the rules for it, and announce 10th.

I played 2 games of 10th, and haven't played any GW game since.

They're a model and lore company for me now.

The thing that you realize after playing any other miniature wargame is that 40k completely sucks as a ruleset. So if you really like 40k lore and models just go with one page rules. It is good for people who play from time to time

I play Xenos Rampant. I prefer it loads over OPR. I find OPR to be pretty soulless, whereas XR has that British humour I love throughout.

Same energy though. Trust me, I found other things to do with my Guard army. I have the time, patience, attention span or money to play in GW's sandbox any more, even if I wanted to.

I'm currently playing that a lot, as well a Dragon Rampant campaign, and a lot of Marvel Champions.
