Picked up a Mordor Battlehost for cheaps. It's the perfect start to the Angmar army I've been wanting to do for a while.

Does backing a Kickstarter count as a purchase?
Discworld RGP in this case

Ordered a box of City Scape: Gothic Ruins and Terrain Crate: Hospital stuff, mostly for the beds.

Not recent but yeah bought 2 months ago - Baldur's Gate 3

A Thanatar.

17 Chaos Knights, 20 Warhounds, 3 Chaos Ogres, and that Chaos Sorcerer from Mark of Chaos

LGS had their semi-annual flea market and I nabbed a bunch of 2nd/3rd/4th metal Marines and Chaos.

Calgar in termi armor and honor guard
2 sets of 3rd edition SM Command Squad
Misc. 2nd ed. Apothecaries, Techmarines, and Standard Bearers
2! Inquisitors in termi armor
2 RT or 2nd era SM captains (bolter and bionic leg version)

Original Noise Marine and Thousand Son
Noise Marine Lord with the huge sonic backpack
3.5 ed Chaos lords, one with Axe, one with Power fist
Epic-scale Angron and Magnus

The Inquisitor Daemonhost, even

It was a fantastic sale

11 old metal Necromunda figures, mostly redemptionists.

I had so much fun building a city wall out of bastion kits I went ahead and ordered a Fortified Manor to convert into some sort of Imperial manor house. With heavy bolters sticking out windows of course.

A couple of things for KT:
1st, a SM Heavy Intercessor w, heavy bolter
2nd, a Necron Plasmacyte Reanimator - I know I already have one of these. But try as I might I can't find it. So.....

I got a set of Necromunda walls and a Hive War set last week. I'm thinking of getting a third set of tiles and another terrain piece this week. if not that than maybe Hive Secondus set for some more Van Saar models and terrain.

Got the old Middle-earth Fall of the Necromancer sourcebook for the piddly amount of $15. Did miss out though on a bunch of cheap minis the guy had that I needed. So swings and roundabouts.

Just got $15 voucher from GW, which of course won't even pay for dice.

I might get one or two of the overpriced Necromunda resin characters that will never paint...

Someone I know got a $25 voucher because it was a year since he first used the new website, so he says.



Wasn't a purchase I was looking to make just yet, but I grabbed Fangs of the Blood Queen and Zondaras Gravebreakers. Online resellers seem to be no longer getting Fangs, and it's a good deal on the Bats/Wolves. Gravebreakers well... because you can never have too many necromancers.

I'm quite willing to let mine expire if the new Squats don't come out in time, or the new Underworlds box. They'll hopefully be my next Game Purchases.

Don't look at the voucher as being insufficient to cover the price of a product, look at it as a coupon code for an "online only" item of your choice. $15 off a $30 item is effectively a 50% discount, off a $45 item is a $33% discount, etc. You will almost never get a deal that good anywhere else.

Most recent?

just bought BG3

Just been to FLGS. Copy of Rise of the Dark Mechanicum in hand.

Oh happy days!

A Tomb Kings army box that was missing 20 skeletons, so 5 sprues, but didn't mention it in the description. This'll be a long weekend...

Picked up some Living Dead Peasants, which are very nice.
Also got some Albion Knights Pegasus riders. Unfortunately, I didn't realise the Pegusi are resin, not great quality either. Ah well, they were cheap for 4 of them and I can clean them up, but disappointing.

Bonus, I got 4 more cloaks in the kit, so my Grey Company will be easier to upgrade with Elladan and Elrohir converted from Oathmark Elves.

Is that the Fireforge kit you're talking about? What's your opinion on them? I've had them on my to get list for a while now.

Yeah. My opinion is they're very nice peasant zombies, six different bodies, some male some female, and a variety of arms and heads, grasping hands and weapon hands (I prefer grasping myself but the option is good).

Up to now I had liked the Mantic Zombies, and I still do like them, but these guys have a lot more character I think.

Bought a second hand (it looks like it's a 302nd hand) copy of the 2nd Edition of Age of Darkness Rulebook.

Now I can finally read the rules and no longer make vague guesses based on what I remember from 7th edition 40k.

A single oop all metal Legion Of The Damned melta gunner.

After a few ages I pulled the little case I keep this squad in out of storage for an upcoming game -
And found a note I'd written to myself back in.... 2008ish?
"Replace lost melta gunner asap"

I got a good chuckle from that.
I don't think I was envisioning a 16 year lag time when I wrote that....

I like the grasping hands too. It's what had attracted them to me, aside from the fact they match GW's previous zombie kit quite nicely, and unlike GW's current zombie kit, isn't prohibitively expensive (or essentially monopose).

Up to now I had liked the Mantic Zombies, and I still do like them, but these guys have a lot more character I think.

I wasn't familiar with the Mantic zombies. They look fine, but very limited in poses. To the point where even after looking at them for 30 seconds, it was incredibly noticeable.
Still, a smattering of them among some GW and Fireforge zombies would be fine.

Yeah, they'd mix in well in a larger horde but the pose variety isn't great. En masse they look fine at tabletop distance, but I wanted these peasant zombies for more skirmish gameplay where the individual poses would stand out more (also I have my Mantic Zombies on 20mm squares and am gonna do these on 25mm circles).

Working on my 40 Mantic zombies tonight as it happens.

So I decided not to use my $15 voucher to get overpriced resin I will never, ever paint, and instead got 2 terrain kits since there's a better than 50/50 chance I will paint it.

Realmshaper Engine and Middle Earth Ruins, both to be repurposed for 40k.

A Kurnite Hunter body from the Voidscarred kit. I am cooking.

I just bought some neosporin and more bandaids as I decided to test the sharpness of an exacto knife by accident.

The good news is that my thumb is now free of mould lines.
