Something I've been pondering for a while is playing 40k with an altered version of the rules that allows for lore accurate play. I even tried playing a game of it with the Vassal engine, and I found that Tyranids just became a little bit well, useless when they weren't in close combat. They just got mowed down by volley after volley of lasguns fire. When they finally did reach the Imperial lines they were able to reek havoc, but the guard did manage to win through in the end (thank you flamethrowers).

I was wondering if anyone else might have any thoughts on the idea of a lore accurate table top game, where necrons will reanimate 90% of the time, and where power armour cannot be penetrated by 'flashlights'? Does anyone think this could work?
