Very good report, my friend! Very well organized, with good pictures and easy to follow action. Keep up the good work. I like the construction of your Inquisitorial Siege Tank, looks pretty boss.

**sudojoe**

is that Chimera made out of Legos?

**jy2**

I believe this was the game where I interrupted you guys for about 1 hour of chatting. Must have been a really long game. Lol.

Bobby (Grey Therion) is our resident Lego expert. He makes his chimeras and rhinos/razors out of legos. He's even made an entire Thunderhawk out of legos in one of our Apoc games!

Thank you very much for the encouraging comments!

sudojoe: is that Chimera made out of Legos?

The Chimeras and one of the Razorbacks as well are out of Lego; they lack detail but the overall shape is extremely accurate for purposes of range and line of sight.

The game took 6 hours from start to finish, and I had a lot of fun!

Gus was the first one to demonstrate that with enough effort Lego can be used in 40k. He had made a Tau Devilfish and a Chimera variant long before I built anything!

Thank you guys for the comments!

Vanilla Marines can't get Divination? Why was he rolling on that tree? (Removing Cover / Twin Linking shots)

Of course Space Marines can take Divination, I must have played at least 5 games against divinated space marines; its right here in the FAQ 1.1: Space Marines: ... new powers from Biomancy, Pyromancy, Telepathy or Telekinesis... wait, WHAT!? Ha ha ha ha, INTERESTING!

Thank you very much for pointing this out!!! For the record, space marines with divination would have been awesome and I am glad that Grey Knights have it!

Good Battle rep, I love the Lego Rhino I might have to field some of them myself in my next Apoc game.

I want to see a lego helldrake now

Good job guys lol. Was fun. Also, I'm now going to play a game with real croissants on flying bases to represent night scythes. wmahahahaha. (if you leave them out for a day or 3, they do get rather hard. Shaken/stunned/glances you can flake off some pieces to demonstrate hull damage

)

Very good battle report.

Quick question though: How did the Psycannons damage the Landraider? Their S7 shots should not have been enough to glance the Landraider's 14 armor.

**ork dork**

they're rending!
if they roll a 6 for armor penetration they have 1/3 chance of a glance, and 2/3 chance of a pen.

basically psycannons are assault cannons, except that they have +1 strength, and can be fired as assault 2's or heavy 4's

**ultimaterez**

Geeze, I play with them enough you'd think I'd remember the rending portion. Awesome, thanks.

I don't think that I can pull off a Helldrake, I don't have that many rounded pieces in my Lego collection to pull off the torso section.
May I recommend that for each hull point taken, your opponent gets to eat 1/3 of the croissant!?

Thanks. As Ork Dork answered they are rending, and with the new hull points in 6th edition any roll on a 6 by the psycannon will cause some sort of damage. That + how much easier it is to hit vehicles in close combat makes the Land Raider much easier to handle than in 5th (though in return the LR can now move much further in a single turn which is downright scary).
