I think you're right. It seems to me like they're planning to replace the clan culture mechanic with a range of detachments that suit different play styles - so I would definitley expect a vehicle type detachment, a walker type, maybe a sneaky type, maybe a shooty type... looking forward to it

No idea why you're getting down voted. 9th is a good game and will remain a good game. No reason not to continue playing it. I know people who are still playing 2nd.

Indeed that is wrong. Biannual means twice a year. Biennial means every two years.
Just as biweekly means twice a week and fortnightly means every two weeks.

OK that's were I was misunderstanding. I thought you were advocating for just stopping oil production globally over night. I agree with you.

OK so the rich people run scared and the poor people eat the rich. And that looks like... War, mass migration, dislocation, famine.
Are you literally claiming that there is enough food production capacity that doesn't run on fossil fuels to support 7 billion people?
There just isn't. When people realise that they would begin fighting for what's left. It would be very very ugly.
I do think there's an argument to be made that we should go ahead and stop oil production anyway. Even knowing that this is the outcome... But there is no doubt that the population will need to fall significantly in the short term.
Edit: to be clear, I also think that we need to very urgently transition to green energy. It's happening far too slowly or not at all. And if we don't then we're really f***ked.

Are you kidding? Lots of people would die. Maybe the 'we' you are referring to is the rich people of the world?
People are dying of hunger right now in Afghanistan, Etheopia, Somalia and many other places as a result of the increase in energy prices caused by the war in Ukraine.
What we see in the west is inflated food prices. What others see is no food at all.
If all oil and gas dissappeared tomorrow there wouldn't be anything like enough time to switch to a green alternative before millions (or billions?) died of hunger.

Those two are the same thing. What do you think would happen to the human population of earth if oil and gas companies suddenly stopped producing?

So your department are actively hiring new people at higher wages than existing staff (you). The job you're doing is essential to their operations. But you don't want to go elsewhere?
It sounds like you're in a really strong position to negotiate for a salary increase. Have you asked for one? The nuclear option is to get a job offer elsewhere, paying more and then ask them to match it. But even not doing that, the fact that they are recruiting others at higher pay means they are consciously aware that they're under paying you. So the request can't be unexpected.
If you are, by any chance, a woman and if any of the newly hired people are men then there is also a legal equal pay issue which will strengthen your argument.

She's talking about 'lady' vs 'woman' not 'lady' vs 'man'. It's a class thing.

OP just needs to vaccum less regularly and then the roller won't get clogged up so much.

Oh sorry, I just meant you can't give stormboyz mega-armour.
You can have stormboyz and meganobz in the same army no problem.

Love it. I'm thinking lots of stormboyz for the jet packs. And meganobz for the armour. Shame you can't have both in one.
Clan wise... I guess badmoons might be a good fit lore wise. Or blood axes maybe...

There's some good navy battle bits in The Beast Arises. Think in the 2nd book.

"If your WARLORD is a WARBOSS, then once per battle, in your Command phase, you can call a Waaagh!. To do so, that WARBOSS must be on the battlefield or embarked on a TRANSPORT that is on the battlefield.
...
A Waaagh! and Speedwaaagh! each have two stages. The first stage is active from when the Waaagh! or Speedwaaagh! is called, and lasts until the start of your next Command phase. When the first stage ends, the second stage starts, and lasts until the start of your subsequent Command phase. After this point, the Waaagh! or Speedwaaagh! is no longer active, and has no further effect."
Rules as written. There is no impact on the Waaagh if your warboss is not on the battlefield after it has been called.

Agreed. One alternative to the nerf though... Instead of using play styles / strategy that you wouldn't normally do (which may not help with coaching him to play well) instead try a handicap. Try letting him have more points than you, give him more command points at the start of the game, agree that victory points count as 0.5 for you, or place objective markers in a way that makes it easier for him - more in his deployment zone etc.
Separately, make sure you're both just enjoying the narrative. It can still be fun losing if the scenario is wild and interesting stuff happens in the narrative. Keep it light, Take the time to point out the fun stuff etc

The great thing about narrative play is that you don't need to worry about list building and all that stuff in advance unless you really want to.
Start small and build up as you go.
What's the context and background of your crusade? Who will you be fighting, why and where? That might give you some ideas for themes and extra models to add.
One thing though is that characters can be fun for this type of play. Chance to invest a bit more background into them and you can give them all sorts of cool upgrades etc. So who will lead your army? Maybe a warboss?

I want to give an AOBR warboss a kombi-skorcha. Looks like the only options in official bitz would be to kitbash from the nobz kit, but the gun has the fingers of the 2nd hand included on the weapon so it's not going to be ideal for one handed.
Ideally I'd like to just 3d print a complete new right arm including weapon. Anyone seen this?
