Fantastic objective solar. I like all the new stuff. I think that the vindicator needs some checkers though. Those giant white panels demand them.

I agree with ice on that note

Your army is turning out just beautiful!

Thanks guys..

More checkers? You are going to make me blind.. I 'll have to think about where and how much. Don't want to over do it. First thing is to put the Dozer blade on my Vindi and add the searchlights.

and one of the the best parts .. everything I get done I have available to use for next years list. Every year should get a little easier, time wise.

I'm guessing that the display " listening station " once belonged to another SM chapter not listed in the IA books. Some damaged and distressed inside wall panels - Very early WIP



My take on the Ice Angels chapter badge.
PS the panel look a bit off as they are removeable and haven't be set in place yet ( early pic )

SL

Ooooh that's purty... Nicked!

Haha, glad I mentioned the blade while you have time. Display looks sharp!

Actually the Blade is just about finished. I just didn't put it on the model as it is Magnitized. Good catch though.

On a good note I dropped a load of cash on a new camera; tripod and all. So Hopefully there will be much better pictures in the future ( as well as more battle reports from Adepticon )

Now to figure on how to use all the features - camera maybe too smart!

SL

More to come after Adepticon -- Stay tuned

Funny how all our threads got quiet now that our Adepticon painting is mostly done... the quiet before the storm eh?

Yeah, I expect I will be adding some content to our original blogs .. mostly our own unique pics.

I will post most of my material and Battle reports on the New Wardens Blog the Ice mentioned he will start.

4 days to go . Looking forward to it Brother!

Talk to me again Thursday night... we'll see how "happy" I am then...

I'll be up on Thusday to offer what ever support you need!

I hope the best for you guys in Adepticon! Seriously, you guys have some very amazing skills.

The amusing part is that we'll probably lose more points in the very first battle than all this other stuff is gaining us. BUT... I don't really care about that... we'll look darn good, we'll have fun... and all we have to do is place better than 91st in order to have "improved" over last year.

Dont you worry guys. I am not playing this year. Therefore all of your luck will most likely increase 10 fold!

DUDE ! you were the rock last year.. without you we coundn't say we actually played the game..

I'm shooting for 90 .. ok maybe 89

Back from an amazing Adepticon

I'll get pictures of the Lamenters stuff as soon As I go thru all 289 pictures.

Wardens Of the Maelstrom ended up 50th . A 40 some improvement!

Well done to You and your team. now PICS!

Glad you guys did so good! I knew you would! Can't wait to see the pictures!

Congrats to you guys on the improvement. Looks like it was a lot of fun. Looking forward to seeing all the pics.

Thanks guys.. it was a blast
Check out Ice's adepticon blog.. All the wardens stuff will be dropping there first .. I'll be dropping specific Lamenters stuff later.

Game 1
First game against Nids. Git and I teamed up. Note this is not a battle report per say. Just some shots and commentary on what was going on…

Set up and opening move

They Covered the back edge!

Ending of the Nid movement

Mass movement Left – We managed to get off some shots, but not enough to thin the Gargoyles. Sternguard and Assault squads go to work

Genestealers on the flank left…

Move up the center

Genestealers on the right flank

Our Position

Death company drops out to push forward on the left flank

After much Close combat the sternguard flamers melt Genestealers in droves. Leaving only. DC finishes them.

Ready to sell ourselves to hold or contest the objective on the right.


Push around the center we go ( note we removed the SR to move things easier

Right flanks Nids push forward

Incoming fire takes 2 Marines and destroys Vindi.

DC and SR make a push to the objective

Not quite enough to make it past the wall and into the nids - Game over! Another turn we would have taken their objective , but the would have swarmed ours as well. Fun game.

Awesome batrep. Yours and gits armies really look awesome together.

Disappointed by the lack of basing on the sr though

Cool, thanks for the pics. Seems like it was a fun game.

Funny thing is that I was in such a worry about getting everything packed ( ans did finish with time to spare ) i ddn't pack either one of my SR bases
and had to purchase on from a bit's vendor 2 minutes into the 1st game.. DOH! I was luck to have glue handy.

Haha! Oops! Its always the little (or not so much in this case lol) things that you forget.

Well at least now I have a spare

Game 2 coming soon!

Nice series SL... pretty much a bat rep without the bat rep! My one flamer took out something like 11 stealers... pretty amazing & very anti-climactic for the death company mop-up.

We were trying to make a fight of it at the end there, just ran out of turns! (game ended on T5) Fun game, great opponents...

Very nice batrep, and I agree the Lamenters and the mantis Warriors look great together.

It was the stuff of heros.. that flamer deserves a putity seal.. yeah I was just learning to use the DC... The dread did all the killing with 5 million attacks ( a wee bit stretch there) I did get my points worth in the later games.
