an ugly force for good
Its been done for battletech and other similar hex based games, they also support play by email. It would be a lot more difficult to do for GW as the playing area is not standardised.

I have a re-occurring dream where I go to the games workshop and buy lots of miniatures. I've checked the loft and the cupboard under the stairs and I'm certain it IS a dream.

Shouldn't be a problem - just give the option to play on a number of different sized "tables"

Then you have obstacles and line of sight, not a trivial task

The only major issue I can think of (I'm only familiar with fantasy btw) is how you would do charge distance estimating, which is a huge part of the game.

If you field the Knights you have a psyker heavy strike force that will have similar stats and access to wargear/weapons as the space Wolves, although iirc the Wolves will have access to a deal of fast strike and run units.
The Knights should be your choice if you expect to get units into a toe to toe with the Wolf troops. I never saw necrons fielded but reading of them does not give me vast confidence in the ability to stand in direct combat with the Wolves. He'll draw them in, smash them to pieces and then when the turns are finished youll be left with no win and lots of fail.
Hence you should go with the Marines

well done Napolean 
I reckon the best two were Chaos Gate (40k) and Dark Omen (Warhammer). Especially the latter.
In fact, anyone else play/still play these? I'd love to get my hands on a copy again.

Because of this thread I have been entertaining ideas of geting back into this. I really enjoyed chopping arms and legs of miniatures and re-glueing and painting them when I was about 13. But my god it's expensive. The paint is unbelievable! I have been doing some internet research into cheap alternatives. I have found you can get a lot of stuff 2nd hand off ebay. My studies have also led me to believe that they are about to bring out 6th edition 40k so as soon as I get everything it will go out of date. Its not like thats ever happend in 40k before.
So I am going to pick up some cheap paint off the internet and have a go. I it goes well I may invest in Black Reach and then paint that. Then it can sit on a shelf for 2-3years until I can con someone into playing a game.

I have bought some miniatures. And I painted them. It was quite an enjoyable experience. I could even post a photo....

Fuck it, it's fine.
I sold my copy of dark omen on ebay just before Xmas. Before it went I had a quick blast, it was still great. So.. check on ebay is my advice.
