My partner and I (24f &29m) are both big nerds, I really like Tabletop games. She often opts to play games solo at her computer.

We bought a house last year, we have no kids and a decent amount of space. One of my main hobbies is playing tabletop wargames. We have a lot of unused space, so when we bought the house, I thought it would be great to host a weekly game night. Locally there are not a lot of public friendly spaces for people to play. We used to have a guy in town that hosted a weekly game night, It was a blast to play the games together and socialize a bit, but sadly he moved away a few years ago. We initially talked about it and she was hesitant but agreed. 

The usual night would be 8 people at maximum including my self in the basement. My partner would be upstairs in her gaming room, or upstairs in our living room watching TV.

I love hosting the game-night. Its a highlight of my week and has become a corner stone of the community. I have strict rules for them all to stay in the basement and not go upstairs as to not disturb her. I keep music low, and game night doesn’t ever get rowdy. Everyone that is coming is someone that I personally know, have met before, and vetted. The game night isnt perfect; Occasionally it can go a bit late ~11:00 pm. we often have a few drinks ( max of 3 ), and some of the guys smoke outside and sometimes the smell can follow them when they come back inside.

She recently expressed that she no longer wanted people in the house, saying that it was not what she expected. Her main points were that there were too many people in the house, and too many people that she does not know (the added context is that she has never once over the 6 months of hosting, come down to say hi or taken any initiative to get to know anyone of my friends) . She added she would prefer if no one ever came over. She says the home is her sanctuary and doesn’t want anyone there and that its about her boundaries. From my perspective she has no interaction with anyone that comes over, and she just hates that there are people existing in the house.

TLDR: I have been hosting a weekly game night, and my partner hates people coming over to the house.

So AITJ for wanting to host a game night?

What does the cult thing our faction focus will be?

Outside of HoA , I feel like all our other detachments could be reasonably reduced to the 1 point detachments they have been showing the faction focus. If the trend is to buff one type of unit Bio, Xeno, and especially outlander claw, seem pretty obvious choices for 1 point.

Final Day and Brood brothers seem like they might be 2 points just so they dont have to deal with the potential 1 GSC character and 99% not GSC.

I could see a world where we pick HoA, Final Day and Brood Brothers are 2 points, and then tack on one of the other 3.

Maybe like a Kelermorph one?

What else could GW make that isnt already covered by one of our existing detachments?

Looks like 11th are changing some core strats, there was a panning shot of the core rules in the unboxing stream today.

Monsters can tank shock

Overwatch is changing, it allows "snap shooting" looks like it will hit on the unmodified BS, but it suggests that it may be keyword/ ability locked to certain units.

EDIT: over watch likely still on 6's , still we dont know about the "Snap shooting" rule.

Of course we have limited information on terrain, based on the previous post on the layouts it implies that the walls and barriers are more suggestions than the hard standardization like in 10th.

So the question is, and mostly to Tournament organizers out there is do we think there is going to be some more statement on terrain feature standardization? or are events going to be whatever the TO has on hand? Should players expect to have the same terrain features on each table at an event going into 11th?
