ok, so today i managed to get my army together and get a practice game in with my provisional army list (a couple of proxies [BOO!] were required) anyway I thought i might just share a my views on the units i used and what my future plans might be..
Typhus- OK, this guy is a MONSTER! he seems to able to shred through most things and just shrug off all but the worst of wounds. for my powers i rolled Plague Wind and Weapon Virus and I have got to say I am very impressed with the discipline. Memorable Moment; rolling a 6 for his Daemon Weapn on a turn he charged meaning he had 10 attacks! brilliant! He will be staying in the list for sure.
Cultists with Mark of Nurgle- They just sat there, not doing much. pretty much a wasted 113 points!
Plague Zombies- Brilliant tar pit unit, just sit there and occasionally take a couple of models down. well worth it. the useless Cultists mentioned above will be replaced with another unit of Zombies (provisionally i will have 2 units of 21 instead of one of 28- but more on this in a few days when i present my revised army list).
Plague Marines- to quote Boris Johnson "VERY NICE" this guys are solid and are staying. The 2 units functioned perfectly and my god can Plague Marines shrug off gets hot rolls! staying in the list, maybe tweaking but not quite decided.
Heldrake- LOVELY! the Vector Strike is amazingly useful and i must say that as a unit they have a huge psychological impact. plus the crazy flamer is brilliant and clearing out entrenched units and objectives! definitely staying!
Forgefiend- A mixed result for this guy. Love the twin autocannons, they kick out sheerly staggering amounts of fire. The additional ectoplasma cannon was only used once i think in the entire game and it proceeded to vapourise a tree three feet to the right of where i wanted it! Will give it another go before dropping it though.....
Havocs- Another beautiful unit that was cut down a bit early in this game. i just couldn't pass armour saves with these guys but it wasn't there fault.
I have received quite a bit of feedback regarding the list and have some plans for the army so within the next couple of days you will get to see my revised (and somewhat final!) army list.
In preparation for BolsCon UK 2013 a group of us have got together and decided to do a Tale of 4 Gamers (although there is more!). Follow our exploits here!

First Post in November
So i'm still hanging on to my job for now, but things have got worse, but people are taking it better than I expected. So continuing on!
November was never going to be great for me. Crazy busy at work, and Halo 4. So managing to get a lot of stuff done already
I have finished the other 5 marines in the squad (no picture yet though) and have largely finished my dragon. Just need to detail him. Hes magnetised in 3 pieces to make it easier to paint and transport.
I have also started base coating my Rhino
So I November I have finished the marine squad (60points) and my dragon (175pts). The Rhino is in progress (35pts) - bringing me to 270 points. So 30 to make up (under my current list -the marine squad could change in cost). That 30 points could either be my Dark Apostle or some cultists.
Have a doubles comp in Dec that i'm taking Chaos to. So might need to be what i need for that!

Weekend over
I know i'm finished for the month, but figured i'd share what i've been working on this weekend.
My Dragons flying base....
I know no one at To6G is being Blood Angels, but i had the piece left lying around.
I also built, magnetised and sprayed the dragon himself ready for painting! And my Rhino parts all finally arrived, and i got him built as well.
Which means I have everything i want to paint in November built and sprayed and ready to go! Good thing too cos Halo 4 is like 9 days away

Wolfie's been Painting!
Well finally getting around to painting here is the proof (that and that I can't paint):
Warboss Rotgut:
He is going to led the boyz to victory, with his fabled golden klaw of destiny.
Boyz:
and 1/2 a stormboyz squad to make up the quota
In December I should be getting a new phone with a better camera...
and the family photo:

3rd list in one month
Well now that the builders have left I can get to my boyz and write another list. The idea is to create a list that I can play with my existing stuff be they built or in boxes to minimise the cost as my BoLSConTo4g fund became my gearbox fund instead either way new list:
HQ - Warboss Rotgut - 125pts
Power Klaw, Twin linked Shooter, Attack Squig, Cybork Body, 'Evay Armour, Boss Pole
Troop - Nobz - 360pts
Shoota-Rokkit Combi, Waagh! Banner, 2x Power Klaw, 2x Big Choppa, 'Eavy Armour, Pain Boy, Cyborks, Trukk, Red Paint Job, Rokkit Launcha
This is my points sink, hopefully over Christmas I can get different units to replace this one.
4x Troop - Boyz - 162pts
Nob with Power Klaw 'Eavy Armour, Boss Pole, Trukk, Red Paint Job, Rokkit Launcha
Fast - Stormboyz -165pts
Nob with Power Klaw, 'eavy Armour, Boss Pole
Fast - Bikerz - 190pts
Nob with Power Klaw, Boss Pole
Fast - Dakka Jet - 135pts
Fighta Ace, Red Paint Job, Extra Twin Linked Supa Shoota
Heavy - Killa Kans - 150pts
Grotzooka, Rokkit Launcha, Kustom Megablasta

The End is Nigh
Hello All! hope this weekend weekend is keeping you all well! I have now finished my points for the month (after painting time this afternoon) and thought i best get some pictures uploaded! Most of these were taken yesterday evening before i got them finished but i wanted to share anyway, so enjoy!
Plague Marine Squad 1 (lacking weapons have since been added) |
Cultists (have since finished the Ogryn and the back row today- will get updated pictures up soon) |
Converted Cultist Champion converted with Nurgles blessing (Sculpted stomach, replaced head and sword) |
Right now I have decided that for my 5 objective markers that I will be modelling each of them after the armies of my fellow competitors. First up to receive this honour is DrLove42 so allow me to present my first diorama objective marker based off of the Word Bearers, tentatively entitled "The Bearer of the Word"
"The Bearer of the Word" |
A shot of the last 2 side by side. |
And finally just some nice random shots that i have taken........
one of the many "piles of delight" that one might find in my hobby chamber |
this is the window-sill, complete with Back-Up Painting Station, most of a Necron Army and more! |
Anyway that is me done for the day, thanks for looking!
I think this makes my thumb look abnormally long... |
