>Too much rule bloat
I swear to god:
>Be me
>Warhammer 40k battle
>I shoot these guys
>Wait I think I have lethal hits
>Since this character is attatched to this unit I think it triggers his special rule
>Wait let me read his datasheet to be sure
>NO, actually, the mission we're on gives us Stealth
>Does it? We should check
>Wait, these guys have the benefit of cover?
>NO, YOU DON'T EVEN HAVE LINE OF SIGHT
>Are these supposed to be ruins? The core rules will tell us if they allow line of sight
>(thousands of pages read and zero fun had)
>Wait, what did Lethal Hits do, again?
>Uhm, actually, if you shoot at these guys you get -1 to wound
>My detatchment rule does this
>So what do I roll to hit again?
>Wait, these weapons have devastating wounds I think...
>Anyway you gotta save 4 wounds
>Who did you allocate them to?
>Weren't you supposed to allocate them??
>JUST FUCKING SAVE THEM
>What's your AP?
>Wait I think some of these wounds are devastating meaning they can't be saved
>That's mortal wounds though
>Let's look it up again
>Fine, that's done. Now I charge forward
>Actually you can't traverse terrains without jumping over first
>You don't have enough movement
>Okay then I declare this stratagem to increase my charge roll
>Do you have enough CP?
>I don't think that's far enough to be engagement range
>And you didn't even have line of sight to charge
>You don't need line of sight to charge!!!
>let's look it up.........
>.....

And so on and so forth until the heat death of the universe. I took 5 hours to do a 2 turn game and we were still halfway done and we had to call it off. Jesus christ, the bloat.
