WHY ALL THE CHEESE?

I been playing games at my local GW and it seems everyone is obsessed with cheese. Anything i use and win with must be cheese and god help you if you want to take more than one of the same thing in your army. I see much cheesier lists everytime i look on the net but If i take something like an example of Fear of the darkness librarian i get ripped into about it by 3 or 4 guys and the redshirts as i play with someone. There not even in the game. The libby walked into battle in a termie squad. it didn't even ds or pod into battle.

Another guy there got the same thing for having 2 wraithlord in his army and that was from a gw staff guy who has 3 wraithlords and no wraithguards in his iyanden army.

so whats with all the cheese guys? why can't i take what i want without all the comments and people saying maybe we shouldn't let him play in the store?

He deliberately takes choices that aren't in your typical IW list just because it is more fun and provides both him and his opponent with a more enjoyable game. That is the attitutde more people need in this hobby.

My regular opponent has never fielded more than the one Wraithlord in his army against me, even though he had 3, and now has 4 because he bought one of the new models.

Our next game on the 14th is going to be 2500 points - a lot more than we usually play and he asked if it were okay if he fielded 2 Wraithlords.

That's why it's good to have him as my regular opponent. I also return the favour by never fielding more than one Predator Annihilator, and have purchased no Tornados because I know I'd want to mass them.

Our wins are basically 50-50 split down the middle and I'm happy to keep it that way.
