Posting from the middle of my game.

I've lost my Onager, Infiltrators, and half my Rustalkers and Vanguard.

The game's synopsis?
Eldar.

I also picked up some Rangers. I currently have them all primed. Pictures to come soon!

I played a 900 point Puretarii list against a friend's Khorne CSM. On the first turn his Sorceror turned into a DP!

By turn 3 I had wiped out everything but a squad of Chaos Terminators and a Daemon Prince. The Terminators, escorted by the DP steamrolled the following.
•A low-strength squad of Ruststalkers
•Full squad of Rangers
•A Sydonian Dragoon
•A full-strength squad of Vanguard

The only model left on the table at the end was the DP with 2 Wounds remaining!

Pic of beginning of fight. My camera failed halfway through.

I haven't had access to my painting gear for a while, but now I have some pictures!











During my "break" from painting, I was reading LordLucan's excellent fanfic "The Age of Dusk", and finished up the Outsider's song, for my own purposes

V, are you picking up an Onager today?

I won't be in until around 3ish(maybe earlier), but I need to know whether to bring pinning materials or not.

No big, you just gotta give me some fair warning as to when so I can show you how to pin the cupola/leg assembly.

1. Paint entire base Doombull Brown.
2. Paint some splotches of Calgar Blue.
3. Paint center of splotches Ice Blue.
4. Coat top of base in PVA glue.
5. Paint a thick layer of Martian Ironearth over the whole top of the base.
6. Drybrush top of base with Kindleflame.

So unfortunately that Rhino is a lost cause. It's partially melted. I'll have to buy a new Rhino if I want to convert up an AdMech transport.

Well, everything is done, it looks like! All I need to pick up now is another squad of Vanguard, and then I can start the Cult Mech section of the force. Looking to have a full War Convocation.


I will be dropping into my FLGS this Sunday to hopefully get a game in using the Battle Maniple formation, or maybe ally with someone to play a larger game. If the game is reasonably good-looking, I'll be sure to write up a report!

I'm back from my local GW.

I played a game against the manager's Khorne Daemonkin. Needless to stay, I got godstomped. I managed to kill a Rhino, his Bikelord, a squad of Terminators, his Termielord, and take 8 HP and 5 wounds off a Bloodthirster and a Lord of Skulls.
My Onager alone took 7 HP off of the LoS, with only 2 shots of it's Neutron Laser!

He killed 3 squads of Pathfinders, a squad of Fire Warriors, my Sydonian Dragoon, my Vanguard, my Infiltrators, and both Crisis Teams.

Some pics from the game!

I have a box of the Skitarii Vanguards/Rangers coming tuesday with a squad of Stormies. the Stormies will represent a mixed squad of "The Alliance"

The Skitarii are to represent the troops of the "Trade Worlds Cartel"

I had that same kind of a game on Wednesday against his KDK, V.

His Bloodthirster had a mishap as it was coming in though--and there was no Lord of Skulls.

Did you have fun though?

The trick is not to kill off whole units.

Plus he didn't have a Lord of Skulls out...

He had a bloodthirst *and* a LoS?? Wow. that seems a bit overmuch given what you were fighting with...

The person in question was playing Khorne Daemonkin, which means that he can either summon a Bloodthirster via Blood Tithe points or if V killed a certain character(the Bikelord) that he likes to field--a Bloodthirster pops out.

Lord of Skulls was probably just a case of he asked, and V said sure.

He always tries to get it out onto the field when he can.

Yep. I said yes to the LoS, and don't regret it at all. I've always wanted to fight one! If only my meltasuit bomb hadn't whiffed...

My main mistake was completely failing at fire concentration. I attempted to kill everything on the board at once rather than focus fire, and lost all of my Haywire turn one due to poor deployment. However, any game against him is a learning experience, and he's always happy to help!

And now for something only mildly related to AdMech!

I am making good headway on my attempt to obtain at least one of each type of Tau Battlesuit. Pictured is a Riptide, Enforcer Crisis, Crisis, XV15, and XV25. Next up is a Broadside!
