This may sound weird but do tactical squad sets come with enough parts for an 11th marine?


I believe that they are short one set of legs, and a "rear torso" piece. Possibly even a backpack (as far as creating that 11th marine.

Ah. Well, I guess one squad will have nine marines. Thanks!

Spent the day finishing a dreadknight conversion and base coating a storm raven.

Here's the dreadknight, can't really tell from the pick but he has a sort of captain Morgans pose with his legs standing on the rock.

Realized I have a ton of models that still need to be assembled.
Tried to make a fire warrior Shas'la (and almost worked but one leg managed to break off... ), a gun drone, and a crisis suit.
Tau seem surprisingly easy to paint.
Also tried working on a tactical squad. Might try an inquisitor conversion with some spare parts.

You don't get 11 sets of legs, but besides that you pretty much get extras of everything.

Oooh shiny new tanks? And where, pray tell, are you planning on inundating us with pictures of these?

If I can get this kid to play quietly somewhere or take a nap I fully intend on priming a Moderator from Bakunin and a Yndij trooper.


Hopefully, soon! I'm really happy with my decision to switch over to C:SM, even if I did get my butt kicked. Twice

So yeah, spent the afternoon (and most of the night!) building 10 tactical marines... Slowly, very slowly, but totally worth it.

Hopefully today I'll stop the W40k assembly and either paint or start preparing my Infinity minis. So much to do, so little time

Tell me about it, way too much to do. C:SM seems interesting, not sure I'll ever use it, but there was stuff to read and such.

A Gladius class gunship and 6 Siren class escorts arrived through foldspace today.

Tomorrow I am going to do an oil pin-wash on my battleship and 2 cruisers. Then clean my new ships, straighten out the gladius a bit and get a coat of primer on them.

This post is awesome. You sound like a grizzled starsailor preparing his vessels for another cold year in space.

Built the Enforcers and Plague models for DeadZone boxed set today. Luckily I have Enforcers from WarPath built and painted so I only had to build the specialty Enforcers to have a viable force for the humans. Next, it's time to paint.

Bit of a mix today. Did some freehand and cleaning up on a DA tactical squad, and got another game of Deadzone. It was a complete bloodbath, with both Strike Teams slaughtered in the opening turns. By the end of round 4, the Plague were all but tabled (1 guy left), a Reb human had bagged 2 Stage 2's at point blank range and the Terraton was on a record kill-streak (4 models in 2 rounds)

Waiting on delivery of a new folding table that won't warp in the middle like the last one. If I can manage to keep the painting clutter on it from getting too messy, I'll be able to quickly clear it off for boardgames and maybe even some smaller-scale wargaming in (it's 6'x2.5').

Might do some painting (ogres) or even play Zombicide...
