A ten pack of D20's
5x sang guard bare heads
kneeling command legs
10x calth backpacks
devastator arms with extra hands

After waiting a while until everything was in place, I put through a nice terrain order:

1x Blackstone Fortress
1x Thermic Plasma Conduits
2x Promethium Refinery (and not the Promethium Forge, which is what I ordered by mistake last time)
2x Derelict Factorum

So many more buildings!

Picked up some stuff from a local store on their Black Friday sale.

Basically all for Kill Team, unfortunately an awesome excuse to add to the pile of grey.

Luckily my son called dibs on the Orks, so hopefully that inspires him to start painting with me again.

Mantic's new nightstalker warband booster, can't wait to get an army of these.

Preordered knight command terminals so that I can actually play with cerestus knights, mortis transfer sheet and box of ceresteus knights for 3rd one(after getting 2 from FLGS) to get free postage. Figured might just as well pay 25 for knights rather than 10 for just postage. Basically 2 knights for 15 euros.

Will have to see rules before deciding how to paint the 6 lancers. Is max unit size 4? If yes might initially paint them in 2 colour schemes and get later another box for 4 per banner. If 6 will be more of Q do I do 1 big banner or 2 small ones.

A pot of leadbelcher, AT Cerastus Knight Lancers and a set of 50, 5*1mm magnets.

The magnets are for two warhounds and for later purchases involving reaver titans. Not sure if they will fit the Warlord titan, but I doubt I would get one to be honest.

I think I'm going to leave at that until the new year...

I just bought 3x IG Start Collecting packs, 4x Cadian Infantry, 2x Demolishers, and a Shadowsword. Should be a nice way to start an army

My Black Friday purchases were a Tabletop Tyrant foam case backpack (at 20% off), 3 Mek Gunz and 2 Start Collecting! Flesh-eater Courts. Also backed The Everrain kickstarter.

You will want at least 1 warlord ;-) If not 2 or 3!

More seriously those are the magnets I use for all my titans including warlords and indeed 5mm diameter is what the pre-designed holes are for so no worries on that front.

Black Friday for me was Booster Gold, Blue Beetle and Gotham by Gaslight Batman from Knight Models. Been meaning to pick up Blue and Gold for a while and the exclusive Gaslight Batman was enough to tip it over with a group order.

Trust me, if I had the wonga, I'd swap my three dinky Questoris Knights for four of those bad boys. Decked out with guitars, drums and a micro(?) phone, sat on a custom built display diorama that has a button which plays Queen's "Princeps of the Universe" .

Cheers for the magnet advice, because there have been times since the release when I've thought "goooo on! do it! treat yourself!". That new Warlord variant almost pushed me over the line...

After my bits supplier lost my package of bits, reordered more ork arms. This after the first seller refunded me after discovering the stupid arms weren't actually in stock after all.

At this point I may be forced to lurk the gaming tables with a pair of model clippers and an emergency smoke grenade.

Picked up some tanks and bits on the warlord games Black Friday sales which are in the post and grabbed a bag of those cheap Christmas pine trees that people use for the displays at Xmas.
They are pretty basic out of the bag, looks like they are dipped in plaster on the ends of the branches and hot glued in to a crappy plastic base. So pulled the base off of one, hit it with some hair spray and covered it with some woodland scenic snow flock. Then some varnish and repeated a couple more times. Not to shabby looking now.

Bought the SAGA Anglo Saxon plastic starter, a unit of archers and some dice

Traded for nine old hybrid Ork Stormboyz.

Cheers,

CB

After all of this nonsense arrived I noticed I'd been sent a set of Regulators rather than another set of Conduits.

Thankfully they're sending a set of replacement Conduits for free, and they said I can keep the Regulators!

And I also went and got that new Necromunda character, the two big Van Saar weapon sets, and the Mechanicum transport.

Most of the Flesh-Eater Court armies I've seen really benefited from Mek Gunz. Good choice.

Last buy were 5 Scourges.
I figured that there is only one special weapon of each type in the box.
So I will need 4 boxes in total.
Not bad anyway since I could also play them as Shadow Spectures.

Just got my copy of Highlander: the boardgame in the post

(although technically it was purchased probably about a year ago!)



Bagsy the Kurgan

I went a bit mad at a FLGS holiday sale and purchased essentially two FoW armies; buy 1 get 3 free on older sets and blisters is an irresistible siren's song. I then needed to order in more stuff to finish off a few choices I was missing which in the end cost more than I spent acquiring the other 2/3s of the armies even with a holiday sale at that vendor. Because what I really needed was more WW2 stuff to not paint...

Still, with some other things that were free on the purchases I ended up only spending ~50% of retail total on everything which is none-too-shabby.

Why did I only learn of this now!?!

My recent buys have been blackstone fortress, box of gsc neophyte hybrids and gsc brood coven hq box.

Bought a box of Scourges yesterday.
Need 4 boxes for 3x 5 Scourges (bomb) and 1x 5 Shadow Spectors (proxy).

Well I "bought" the necron half of forgebane from a guy here but the post office seems to have lost it and he says he will refund me the MO i sent him.

Kill Team: Rogue Trader
Box'o'Electro Priests
Box'o'Gargoyles

Bought an M3 Lee to turn into a battlewagon

My beyond Coldfront has finally gotten to my corner of Africa.
Splitting it so just getting the ALEPH. Gunbot away!

*le sigh*

Got sent the regular (non-backpack) case. Now I probably get to do the jolly dance of international returns and hoping I get reimbursed for the 20-30 euro postage.

I bought a box of Empire Flagellants on a whim. They look like they'll be fun to paint but I'm fairly certain they're not very useful. Ah, well, I collect the Empire for their looks mostly. And to blow the hell out of stupid elves/norsemen/other humans with inferior hats.

Got this pretty cool ratmen team from Meiko Miniatures (Comixinos in Spain had quite a good Black Friday discount on). Right that's it now - no more miniatures until the ones I have are painted! .. Really!

Had some stuff turn up from warlord games from their Black Friday sales, two kits of which are the Sherman v.
Took a quick look at them and thought I’d seen the kit somewhere before, then it dawned on me that they are upscaled Plastic soldier company kits.

Having built their 1,72 scale Sherman it’s still going to be fun getting them on the table.
