Collecting Forge World 30k????? If you prefix any Thread Subject line on 30k or Pre-heresy or Horus Heresy with [30K] we can convince LEGO and the Admin team to create a 30K mini board if we can show there is enough interest! |

Mattieu~~~~ It's not that eldar are bad, it's that they require a lot of intergration between units. Also, that doesnt prove anything other than GW has a huge hard-on for marines, and, given the option between making a xeno the best psykers or making a marine the best psyker, they will 9 times out of 10 choose the marine.

Merry Christmas all
Model wise I've been lucky and got a couple of bikes to boost my chaos army, a devastator squad to incorporate into my chaos and raven guard army, some gretchin and MORE BOYZ!  parents were also very naughty and got me a keeper of secrets!
get to see my girlfriend in a few days for presents exchange so maybe more models to come plus birthday in a week. then I'll probably spend Christmas money on models too. Lots of modelling and painting to do.

No 40k models (although I did get some Easterligs for my new WOTR army), my main wargaming present however was a nice new carry case. Sadly not a Battlefoam or KR case, just a generic one but it'll do the job much better than my current one (the small GW case). Oh I got some cash too which will no doubt be spent on getting my BT up to 2000pts.

Six mistakes mankind keeps making century after century: Believing that personal gain is made by crushing others; Worrying about things that cannot be changed or corrected; Insisting that a thing is impossible because we cannot accomplish it; Refusing to set aside trivial preferences; Neglecting development and refinement of the mind; Attempting to compel others to believe and live as we do |

GW did pretty good by my household.
x4 units of kalabite warriors
x2 units of wyches
x1 archon
x2 haemonculi
x3 ravagers
x7 raiders
x1 unit of incubi
x3 units of reavers
that was the GW worth of stuff.

I got a lot of new stuff including Windows 7 Woot!
40K related I got, Horus Heresy the Collected Visions, Imperial Armor The Siege of Vraks part 3, a Valkyrie, FW Vendetta conversion kit, FW Avatar, FW Elysian Drop Troopers, FW Elysian Drop Troopers Weapons Pack, a Carrying Case for my army, and the Ultramarines Movie.
Let me just say that I am still waiting on all the Forge World stuff because my parents ordered it 3 weeks ago and apparently Britain has been hit by some HUGE snow storms (if anyone from Britain can clarify) so all of my FW stuff is currently either still in Britain or sitting in a Post office here waiting to be delievered.
Merry Christmas Everyone!
