wow the first time i saw a mythical page roll over....

You haven't been paying attention over the last 211 pages, have you?

good bat rep. sucks to hear about the guard failings but on the other hand, good job MW on a fine fight!

Huzzah for another Winter Guard army! Poor guy.

Glad to see the full MW deployment worked as planned!

I dont view this battle as a horrible tragedy, but found a strategy that didnt work, hopefully it doesnt take me 10000 to find that though...and the reason my list is fairly upgraded is that 1)in the past i have gotten by very good on the list and 2)i dont have any primer in madison and so have no way to paint any other tanks really, so will probably have to wait a while before i can expand the list.

also, are winter guard armies common? im gonna be pissed if they are because i thought that mine was sort of original, that would be a buzzkill

Love the battle rep!

No.

Which is why I celebrate them, as my own Guard is winter guard.

They look real good on the tabletop. One heck of a lot more interesting than the standard grey or green.

yeah, i like the look of winter guard, my guys look sorta polka dotted though, darn...

Actually they look like they're wearing pajama pants!!

Love them!

lol, that is better than polka dotted, maybe they all just like to party and are out on the prowl in the universe for some pajama pant lovin ladies!

Git i did pay attention but i never witnessed it myself.

the winter/pajama guard looks awesome

I've managed to get through this entire blog, and I must say, I'm impressed. Congratulations on the quality of the work, and on the effort it must take to keep this monster going. Bravo

grrr

Thanks grrr. I hope you stop by again from time to time.

White, polka-dotted pajama pants. Zoom in on the pics of you don't believe me!

all they are missing is a snuggie and a cup of coffee

Well, if any of you are curious what my self-portrait as an ork looks like... head on over here and check it out!

Hmmm.... question is, does it warrant a change in avatar?? It is my self-portrait... and unique. Thoughts?

It does... Though I will miss old Gitsplitta, that's for sure...

I believe it's a requirement, hence the jolly chap I have morphed into...

Gits think what Obama would do........
we demand change.

Done and done. I must admit that I always thought this was the best view of this figure, even though you miss more than half the detail that way. I suspect this one will have a long run.

But graven... that avatar is much to steely and scary to be you! As long as Yggsie doesn't change... all is right with the world.

@fatty: My eldest really likes your avatar... but then he's still susceptible to "cute". I'm sure it'll bring him to a bad end when he gets old enough to date.

yeah i really need a new avatar too this one brings up bad memories. i have pet rats myself and i had to put one of them down last friday because it had brain cancer.

I had pet rats when I was a kid. Benji and well... Benji (2). Neither made it too long as they're lab rats and predisposed to develop tumors, but Benji 1 lasted several years and Benji 2 lasted a couple, maybe a bit more.

Gits, you've got some competition

And he's darn good too!

yeah but some how i don't find his mantis warrior as good as yours. i think its becuase he just wants something quick to paint. just a great paint job isnt all what makes a model awesome.

on another point yeah as soon as my own custom warboss is ready i will change my avatar

Well, it is interesting that the things he doesn't like about the old MWs are pretty much what I do like and visa-versa with the new ones. I find the drab new scheme quite dull even though he does an excellent job of painting it.

That's the cool part about the hobby though... we can have very different views on the same chapter and both come up with something legitimate. Though I imagine GW would like his version much better than mine.

Thats true Git so true
