My mates, Ben, Liam, Otty and I had a 12 hour Apocalypse battle. The report is being written on the blog, but given the scale of what I was trying to do was sketchy at best. However, it's more about the spectacle with this, so if you like your hobby porn and enjoy nothing more than 4 totally bada$$ completely painted armies featuring many scratchbuilt and unique items then enjoy. Oh, there was a scratchbuilt Warlord Titan too,
Prelude to war is here: http://40kaddict.blogspot.co.uk/2013/10/apocalypse-wow-12500pts-of-armageddon.html
First turn will be on the blog tomorrow.

My first turn was quite effective with guaranteed reserves arriving from Deep Strike with a Flyrant, 3 Spore Pods with 10 Devgaunts each in two pods and the Doom in the 3rd, Trygon Prime, 4 Sky Slashers with Spinefists and 10 Gargoyles all closing on the objective and removing both Manticores.
Meanwhile the green tide advanced.
Eventually Crimson Fist reserves arrive in the from of this 'X-Wing Pattern' Storm Raven
'Nancy' strikes back

Here's a preview of turn 2:
NOT Lysander and his retinue face a carpet of Stealers
How you mount a kitbashed Storm Talon
Crimson Fists 'fight in the shade'!
'Relic' Whirlwinds were even called to battle to stem the Xenos tide.

Turn 3, start as we mean to go on:
My Tyranid forces finally start to take on the guard.
While what remains of Otty's central assault has still a long ways to go:
While NOT Lysander is the sole remaining Terminator from his squad to face down the Hormagaunts under the shadow of the Warlord Titan

Great batrep. It's rare that you see such nicely painted miniatures in one apocalypse game.

Thanks guys - Turn 4, 5 and 6, pretty much flew by at this stage so there are less photographs and the end result is here: http://40kaddict.blogspot.co.uk/2013/10/apocalypse-wow-12500pts-of-armageddon_9.html
However the highlights include Nancy 2 taking on all comers
The last ditch attempt of my nid force to break into the Imperial Guard deployment zone:
Nancy 2 on her 3rd helpings of Super Heavies
Lets shoot some flyers
Thanks for your indulgence, we'll definitely be doing it again some time next year. Meanwhile my good buddy Liam who scratchbuilt the Warlord, Warhound, Lightnings and all sorts has just started a blog. He's new at this so be gentle as he finds his stride but his first post is starting how to scratchbuild your own Land Speeder Tempest so if that's not a statement of intent I don't know what is. Who knows what insane step-by-steps he'll share. So check out http://bluewarpstudios.blogspot.co.uk

Some really cool pictures and that tyranid army is beautifully painted, especially that hierophant.
That warlord was scratch built? Damned that is some skill. Just my opinion but it seems a little overlarge. But still an incredible piece of work.
