Metallics all done. Didn’t take as long as I feared.

Next is the red shoulder pad, then any frou-frou bits.

5k of NetEA Minervans versus Tyranids, E:A GT scenario. A brutal affair, with the Guard eventually taking the field through weight of kills after no-one could attain a clean victory on the main objectives.

Don’t mind me. I’m just here to FLEX!



All painted, and displayed.

How much is that? A Chapter's worth of infantry and tanks? Two?

I honestly don’t know. But I can try to work it out.

4 x 12 strong Taccies, that’s 240 bodies.
2 x 12 Strong Taccies with Missile Support is 120
2 x 12 Strong Taccies with Plasma Support is 120
2 x 8 Strong Assault Marines is 80 bodies
2 x 8 Strong Cataphractii is 80 bodies
2 x Command is 10.

So already that’s…erm…650 individuals.

39 Saturnine including one Command base

Then there’s 12 Rapier Platforms with two gunners for 24 bodies.

36 Bikes, 40 Jetbikes and 48 Landspeeder Crew is another 124 bodies.

So not faffing with vehicle crew? 827 Astartes.

There’s 64 Dreadnoughts, 8 Araknae platforms and 140 Tanks, plus 6 one pilot Fighters, 4 Gunships with at least 3 crew, and a Thunderhawk with again at least 2 crew.

Even allowing just a single driver for all the tanks? That’s 1,069 Astartes.

Heyoo, battle report time!

Epic: Armageddon, 4k NetEA lists, Imperial Fists vs. Minervan tank legion.
'Ill met by moonlight' expansion, 'Blitzkrieg!' scenario.

Good ol' written battle rep in the blog with ~20 pics of hot tank on tank action in the grim darkness of the far future. Enjoy

You just need to get your army into glorious battle too!

It awaits, out there, somewhere!

It's not the shape of the headwear, but how you use it. Wait, err...

But yes, you simply need to get your fellas out more. How can they live their best tiny war criminal lives if they can't run free, touching grass and burning civilisations on the wide tables of the great yonder?

More TS done!

Some recent terrain progress.

That barbed wire is so cute.

I also have some, for my Baran Siegemasters.
