    AdMech Patrol #2 - Progress report

    By Bouargh

    Blog entries pass and sometimes look like very similar to some previous ones. It is one of the issues when dealing with army building on base of multiples buy outs of the same Patrol Box...   Yet we might eventually expect some variation if the models are fitted in different fashion, ain´t we?   The Onagre DuneCrawler as already been spoiled in the FOrums, but it has been the major progress of the past week so I will "proudly" republish it there. It is also an unhonorable  wa

    Dakota Minor Defence Corps (PDF)

    By Mike Zulu

    Introduction Like many established Imperium worlds, Dakota Minor has a planetary defence force simply known the Dakota Minor Defence Corps (or DMDC). Most of its number are conscripted from the local population; a small number of citizens willingly join to escape the tedium of farm life that is prevalent on Dakota Minor. The DMDC is organised in a manner similar to Astra Militarum regiments, albeit more limited in their makeup. For the most part, it consists of dozens of infantry battalions

Necromunda: The Rampage of Hive Primus

The Forgeking has been killed. The underhive is in chaos. What little order that was has now been replaced with gangs warring to obtain a piece of his smoke Blackened empire...     Hi all, I'd been thinking about getting into Necromunda for a long time, playing one game in ~2021 or so and getting mashed on a 2x2 board by some corpse grinders, when someone at my local club proposed a new campaign. About 6 of us were interested, and it took off from there.    The star

"Pain is the sister who fights at my side......"

".....Pain recalls to me my wrongs that I might strive in pursuit of penance. Pain insists that I stand my ground, steady my aim and fight on though my life blood falls like rain to the thirsting soil. Pain is an ally. Pain is a friend. Pain is truth." — Sister Erynica N’botu, Order of the Valorous Heart       The more I thought about it the more I rather have one large Order of the Valorus Heart Commandery under Canoness Commander than Smaller Commanderies or Missi

"The absence of faith is the mark of the heretic."- Ephrael Stern

With the Adeptus Ministorum models coming out for Kill Team: Blood and Zeal, I may really need to revisit my Adepta Sororitas.      With the amount of unpainted models and just the amount of models I have, I can either do them as 2 Orders or One giant order. The 2 Orders I would do are The Order of the Valorous Heart and Order of  Our Martyred Lady. If I go with a single order it will be Valorous Heart.      So I guess I need to build lists....and buy mor

The Strifes of the Matteus Subsector

Defence of Dakota Minor (884M41) II

+++ INTRODUCTION +++   The Defence of Dakota Minor was a series of conflicts in 884M41, that saw the Imperium defending the Matteus Subsector’s primary food provider against invaders. With only a token battlefleet and planetary defence force to protect it, Dakota Minor was expected to fall to the invaders in less than three months. Fortunately, intervention by local Astra Militarum regiments and the Adeptus Astartes saw the invasion quelled and the planet secured for the Imperium.

AM Not-Stygies - A Blog about building a new Army

A new Marshall in town

Hi folks,   After a while developping my AdMech Aemy, I've reached a point where I can consider that the mustering is now completed. It means that I am now entering in the cycle of Blobbing the army: buying more stuff that I do not necesary need but that I need for FOMO. Or, as an excuse anyone can believe, in order to get more options in order to gain flexibility and align new units adversary are not used too.   A typical example might be 3 Armingers instead of 1l Styrix Kni

Void Dancers: Narrative for "Knives in the Shadows" challenge

Hi Folks,   Today's contribution will be a different one: the narrative due to come along the painted minis for the "Knives in the Shadows" challenge. An exercice I am not very familiar with. Let's see how it sorts out:   ____________________________________________   The master of the Esdainchii was carefully watching at the stage. The troop was jumping and flipping around, dancing a Masque very few had seen played, even among the near immortal Asuryanii. As f

Necro-fun-Da: Rad Reavers Rise

I think I might have shared these already, however since October I've been involed in a Necromunda Campaign at my local club, which has been very fun and rewarding, and captured my imagination, attention and obsession like a GW game hasn't since maybe, mordheim? Early heresy 2.0 is up there also as I collected a brand new Alpha Legion Army.    My blog has so far been primarily battle reports, however none for necromunda so far, so I'll be having a go at typing up reports of my games so

All about the base!

Intro   With the Knives in the Darkness Kill Team event looming, I have been assembling my chosen team of Inquisitorial agents with a squad of sisters of silence. The inquisitorial agents I have already built on standard plastic Sector Imperialis bases, but sisters of silence I have left unattached to the bases, as i find with big cloaks such as theirs they are easier to paint when you can get to them from below. Anyway, I decided I would have a go at 3d modelling my own 32mm bases for

Happy Golden Days - Armies for 4th Edition

Into the Forest

Theoretical While building an army, one might find themselves having crossed a line, where the project begins materializing beyond the Kill-Team or individual squad level. Like models in their squads, the units begin to coalesce into a recognizable force. It's not something I can really visualize with grey plastic - the painting lends itself to the phenomenon. The small slips and errors made on specific models goes away, and the trees become the forest.   Practical With my Ta

CRUSADE GAME 4 - TAU VS IMPERIAL GUARD Spending a lot of time in close combat in this Crusade...   My next game was a rematch, of sorts. Not for the armies so much as for the two most intimidating hulls currently in the Crusade! Yes, Andrew's Rogal Dorn - now a commander - against my Hammerhead, Shi'ur Monat. Oh, and some other things happened, I guess, but the two big tanks having another shooting match was the main thing.   At this range it was practical

In Service of the Imperium- W.A.Rorie's Blog

A Great Unclean One almost took me down.......

Wow this cold/ Flu is freaking brutal.....chills, sinus pressure, cough, congestion, phlegm, exhaustion, fevers, all of it. Hit my house like a ton of bricks. All the kids got it along with the wife and me.  And as I was recovering, Wife and I went to Disneyland with my Bestfriend and his wife, for a mini moon without kids and of course it was cold and rainy (misty rain) so Nurgle's blessing did not go away.  And now that I am back home and back to work we are dealing with a high 80's this past
