Listen to the guys talk 40k whilst you paint or convert!

If I can clear it with "she who must be obeyed” I’ve been thinking about popping down to WHW on the 30th Dec to play test the Blitzkrieg/ Dog fight rules with my son, would anyone else be interested?

I would be up for it again on the provision of permission being granted. Will try and ask once she is 'merry' tomorrow

I should be free too.

Btw has anyone used Black Lotus Tribe Shields from maxmini

So did everyone have a good Christmas? Got a lifta droppa and war kopta from my better half, did you guys get anything good for the up coming campaign?

The wife dosen't do war games but i'm planning to treat myself to a super canon, and i'm torn between, scratch building a fortress or a Blasta Bommer.

Is the blasts bomber the super heavy flyer? If so you definitely need to build one of them!

Santy (tracey) was very good to me... My imperial fists have been bolstered by a thunderhawk, and i've got a stompa for the waaagh! In March!

Thunderhawk... I almost wept!

Merry christmas!

WOW - i got the betrayal book and was impressed!

you just need to painting it white and blue and it would be prefect!

Very nice mate the thunderhawk will look awesome with your fists

I'm into the second part of betrayal, i think its the best heresy book yet! Unfortunately my world eaters are concluded so it will be very yellow when painted! Was always the idea in my head when i daydreamed about it anyway!

Will try to work on the pack this evening so keep your eyes open for an update over the next few days!

Oh man, you’ve hit the jackpot.

I’ve been told that the 30th isn’t the right time to disappear for half a day to play silly games. I need to find another time to do it. I did treat myself to the super canon though!

Campaign Pack has been updated!

All games are now laid out with point details! I've chosen to limit the apocalypse forces to 5000 points for now. This is in order to ensure we don't have a late start building lists on Sunday morning again (my fault probably but its all a learning process). Hopefully its a large enough number to encourage you to field some more epic scale armies. If there is scope and time to organise larger forces it will have to be done before the weekend or on Saturday lunch time to ensure we're ready to go Sunday!

Cast your eyes over them dudes and let me know what you think.

I'll try to get the additional Ork forces ready over the next few days!

I need a couple of people to help me with something scenery wise, pm me please if you think you can assist. (It got to be secret , so pm's only!)

Waaagh!

Mmmm... Thunderhawk...

May I just say that the Ullanor Campaign sounds like its gonna be epic. I'm not available that weekend myself (busy doing stuff for Salute) and, even if I were, my Heresy Era Ashigaru/Samurai IG would be nowhere near ready... Gutted, 'cos it sounds like it'll be fun :(

You'll just have to come to the July event... and November obviously!

Well, November goes without saying, Geordie, but I would like to get involved in some games earlier than that if possible. It may require me extracting a finger or two from some of the juicy pies...

Sounds, well, a little filthy to be honest! Oh er missus style!

I've just finished reading Betrayer! ADB is by far and away the best heresy novelist! More plans and further weekends dedicated to his work inspired ideas i think...

Waaagh! Urruk takes shape and grows... the WIP Ork update pack is available beneath the Campaign pack on page1

Remember, it's a work in progress, I've put it up now in order to let those that want to make some extra stuff do so as I may not get a chance to add other stuff over the next fortnight!

Some points to remember -

- The points are yet to be decided for the most part.

- Actual weapon load outs for units (Battlekopta/ThundaNobz) will be pretty much the same as the codex but have stuff that is not necessary removed e.g boarding planks or bike options etc etc)

- The battlekopta will not be as fast as a regular flyer (just need to figure out the wording, will be a flyer that moves at tank speeds)

- The battlekopta doesn't need to be a "kopta" it can be a massive plane or a blimp or whatever! As long as it looks like it could be a big old thing and is on a flying base then its fine by me (Please don't just stick battlewagons straight onto flying stands, at least remove the wheels and add repulsors or something)

- Da Warlords are basically Ghazgkhull/Wazdakka etc with different names!

- I'm going to make a Kustom Gargant Table so we can get some REALLY BIG Orky Apocalypse units to help out the diddy stompas! I@ll work on it in the next few weeks... be ready to scratch build!

Any suggestions and stuff please let me know. If you haven't checked the campaign pack yet then please do so and tell me what you reckon!

Nice work Scott, you've given me alot to think about. I'm starting to look at my kitbash Mega Dread with a mega boss slant now.

I've started to Ork up a Bastion with plans for a second now as well.

Orky bastions rok!

It looks like Orks are popular on Ebay at the moment, are we all out bidding each other in the drive for re-enforcements?

I,ve been given a Mad Doc for my birthday, now i'm looking forward to trying out that 5+ inv save.

What are you looking for nick?

oh just the standard stuff, Lootas, MANZ, Nobz and Stompas. I just noticed that things seem to be going for more than is usual.

Happy new year guys. Hope you had a good one.

New year? When did that happen? With all the packing/driving/packing/driving/unpaccking of moving houise... I think i missed it!

Has anyone had a go at the blitz runs let

So how is everyone getting on with their armies then?

llamafish wrote:Has anyone had a go at the blitz runs let

This weekend hopefully! I hope it plays okay!

vraksianrebel wrote:So how is everyone getting on with their armies then?

Got a stompa to build and a Primork to bash together... one or two other things in the pipeline!

I’m Orking up some bastions, and I have the bitz together to build a Mega Dread/ Primork and a super canon.
Scott what’s the score with HQ units with the Orks, the pack says only one per army is that right?

You must be reffering to the Blitzkireg "flyer mission?" Yes one HQ. The other games allow more in line with regular force organisation.

Just checked the Urrlak Pack and i think thats what you mean Nick... it's one HQ from the Codex which is identified as a named character or unique (with a changed name for pre-heresy reasons). You can always take one of these and a standard Warboss or unamed HQ type! I may change it actually as I want Wazdakka and Ghazghkull... or dakkawaz and Kullghazgh... I'll get better names for them before march!

Cool, I like the Wazdakka, Gaz combo too!

Besides if all the Imperials decided to bring a Primarc and the Emperor makes an appearance we might need a few more big’uns for a proper fight.
