Built two Rhinos this evening.

These, + the one I built a few nights back, and that finishes off the 3 needed for my DW/agents force.

Things left to do for this force:
Build
3x Vet Bikers
3x Warglaives
Add assorted bitz as they arrive in my mailbox.
Paint at some point (maybe in 2025?)

Finally packed away the last board for my last game of Five Parsecs from Home and set up the board for my next one.

"The best way to lie is to tell the truth." Attelus Kaltos.
My story! Secret War
After his organisation is hired to hunt down an influential gang leader on the Hive world, Omnartus. Attelus Kaltos is embroiled deeper into the complex world of the Assassin. This is the job which will change him, for better or for worse. Forevermore. Chapter 1.

The Angaran Chronicles: Hamar Noir. After coming back from a dangerous mission which left his friend and partner, the werewolf: Emilia in a coma. Anargrin is sent on another mission: to hunt down a rogue vampire. A rogue vampire with no consistent modus operandi and who is exceedingly good at hiding its tracks. So much so even the veteran Anargrin is forced into desperate speculation. But worst of all: drive him into desperate measures. Measures which drives Anargrin to wonder; does the ends, justify the means?

Working on my LI terrain at long last. Found a simple enough and rapid paint scheme courtesy of Battle Bunnies. And building a load, using the 2nd Ed Space Marine buildings as inspiration for shape and height.

It's cool & damp here at the moment wich leads me to procrastinating on doing more important things, SO....

I'm painting up the grenades/equipment bitz from the new KT equipment box.

Also starting the painting on a group of AoS goblins that've been here on the desk for a bit - I think they were one of the Underworlds teams. Just the green of their skin atm as I already had that pot of paint out & handy thanks to painting those grenade tokens.

Played through my 23rd Encounter of my Five Parsecs from Home campaign. I was too tired at first but made myself. I rolled up a new crew member in the last Post Game who was Precursor Psionic so it was the 1st game using a Psionic from the Compendium and I really liked it. It's a simple, easy system to understand.

Getting my kicked 40k wise.
My Deathwatch hit the table this evening vs Tau.
1500pts.
For the first 3 turns the game was nice & close. We alternated being ahead/behind by a point or two.

And then came turn 4.
The Tau player couldn't miss, wounded with most rolls, & I seemingly couldn't roll higher than a 2 for most saves.
He scored 19 pts in one round.
Naturally this had quite the adverse effect on my turn 4 scoring..... I managed to eek out a meger 5 pts.

Turn 5 he tabled me & scored max for the round.

Greeblies and Noodlies on my LI scenery. I lucked out paints wise, as I had part used Nuln Oil and Agrax washes, which now share a single pot, with a little airbrush thinner added to, well, thin it just a little bit.

So once the Greeblies and Noodlies are done? It’s wash city, baby! Straight from the pot with no apologies.

And if you’re in the UK, and wish to marvel at just how reasonable a result a complete idiot that put in very little effort can achieve, in person? Join us at Bac-Con, a Dakka meet and play event, 1 March 2025 at Firestorm in Cardiff, raising funds for Paul “Fat Bloke” Swayer’s chosen charity.

Just think, you could call me a knob to my face!

Going to put some Wood Elves on the table soon for Old World.

So finally building an ancient Wood Elf battalion box from back around the 5th/6th ed WHFB days.
Picked it up way back when for an Escalation style league.
The league fell apart before I needed to build it & it's been sitting in storage ever since....

Unsure.

My LI Buildings need their wash, but I’ve the excitable idiot Nephfloof from around 11am. He’s normally very good about not knocking my painting table, but his tail can be a menace, and he’s a sod for shedding.

So might just build some more examples from the remaining bits on sprue.

Completed the 24th Encounter of Five Parsecs from Home. The game was a victory for my crew, but one crew member was taken off as a casualty and one "got lost" meaning she just disappeared, lol.
I also did the Post Game stuff and most of the next Campaign Turn. It was funny, during the Campaign Event Attelus was ousted as leader and I decided that the new Psionic Precursor (basically Five Parsecs version of the Eldar) named Faleaseen took over as leader. Then I rolled the Character Event, got Attelus and then rolled that he got into a fight with another crew member and that happened to be Faleaseen. Attelus beat the crap out of her in the fight, lol.

Was a lot of fun!

Then set up the battlefield which I think turned out pretty cool.
