Breaking open launch boxes like Warhammer 40K Armageddon is a bit like setting up a shiny next-gen console. It's a fresh start wrapped in cardboard and plastic; you excitedly tear off the packaging as if it's Christmas morning, breathe in that heady 'new' smell, and then get to work. For those first few hours, you're living on promise and possibility and endless horizons.
If ripping into a set like Armageddon is Christmas, this is a good year. I was able to go hands-on with it all early, and after just a few days building its armies and poring over the new rules, I think you're gonna dig it. That applies no matter whether you're an experienced player or newcomer, by the way; while some will get more from Warhammer 40K Armageddon than others, it's a crowd-pleaser. I suspect most of us will walk away satisfied.
