Old Epic had some strange issues with armament specifically, weapons were divided into broad types with no real acknowledgement of different subtypes all 'bolters' (pistol, bolter, storm, heavy) had the same stats, for example, and the Battle Cannon in a Baneblade's turret had the same stats as the one in a Leman Russ Battle Tank's, or the one in a Stormblade's sponson.ДЄn Epic army was organised using army list-like groupings based on cards with point values.

This also got GW the Space Marine registered trademark in the UK, which they took great joy in forcing figures based on the Aliens franchise to acknowledge even though the second movie came out first. In this system the majority of models were 1/350 scale, while large vehicles were 1/700 scale to keep them affordable (seriously, there was a time when Games Workshop actually thought like this). As this was during the Second Edition phase of design, it did this via a diseased combination of 'Army Cards' where building an army was a matter of creating a spreadsheet with a bunch of dead trees. Then, along came a system called Space Marine: Epic designed to allow more rounded armies and hailed as a way to show the true scale of Warhammer 40k conflicts, seeing as the fluff demands wars on the level of the Apocalypse over a Black Templar spilling iced coffee on an Eldar Guardian. How long has it been 'being remade' for though? Basically 40k's Warmaster.Д®pic began as a system by the name of Adeptus Titanicus and was all about giant-ass Titans fucking each other over with huge weapons and stamping on puny infantry. This is purely a game play decision and has nothing to do with the fact that the 28mm scale resin models in Apocalypse are outrageously expensive and supported by special books you have to buy.

When Games Workshop switched from metal to Finecast and then plastic, they (and Forge World) declined to update the molds for Epic (and the other Specialist Games), so the stocks are slowly dwindling away. Forge World never bothers to stock shit for this anymore since it has been overshadowed by its big brother (quite fucking literally) Apocalypse. Make sure your rose-tinted glasses are on nice and tight, and prepare for a lovely walk down nostalgia lane.Д®pic was a system for running massively huge (or, one might say, EPICally huge) games of Warhammer 40,000, using streamlined rules and 6mm scale figures to make things feasible. The table below details the core pages found on the wiki, further links to the content can be found on these pages.This article or section is about something oldschool - and awesome. Our vision is a thematically accurate and balanced supplement players can use to reproduce large scale battles during a time of epic betrayal and war.

The Heresy supplement is intrinsically linked to Forgeworld's Horus Heresy work in 28mm scale and is being adapted for the 6mm scale found in Epic Armageddon. The wiki hosts the Horus Heresy supplement for Net Epic Armageddon and the AU community inspired Army lists for Epic Armageddon. This wiki provides players and tournament organisers in Australia with a place to develop army lists and rules variations for Games Workshop's Epic Armageddon ruleset.
