As I continue down the Militarum Tempestus rabbit hole, I have plans for crashed Valkyries as terrain pieces. So looking up the photos I found some good ideas
and all these images stoked the flames of the project. Along with My fascination of the events of Operation Gothic Serpent aka "Black Hawk Down" I definitely want to do this project. While talking to some friends, they agreed an
So my gaming group is going to do a Slow Grow League to help teach my kids 40k. Starting at 500 pts and having to add 250 pts at every increase. So stepping out of the power armor and terminator armor, I have decided to play my Psian Jakals.
So with that in mind, starting games being 500 points:
-Militarum Tempestus Command Squad
Tempestor Prime Command Rod (Warlord)
Medic
Master Vox
Plasma and hotshot volley gun Scions
-Tempestus S
So looking toward the future I will be focusing on my 54th Psian Jackals with Metal Head Armory doing a Slow Grow League. I have plenty of projects planned for the army so I figure it is time to plan out the projects:
Paint Scions- I have 30 scions waiting to be painted and still need to get a few more scion boxes (5 or 6) but I need 2 for Valkyrie Heavy Bolter gunners* and 4 Torsos for Tauros Venator**, so that is 6, plus I want to options if I decide to drop the 3 Vox
It has been a few weeks since I have touched my 54th Psian Jackals and have been focused on my Exorcists Chapter of Adeptus Astartes. Well that is gonna have to change this weekend.
Tempestus Aquilions will be acquired this weekend. Unfortunately I won't get much time to work on them due to working extra shifts at work.
Yesterday the rules for the Aquilions were released for 40k
and of course Datasheets
So as the build of my 54th Psian Jackals Militarum Tempestus Army continues I keep looking at what will be added in the future. Scions and Aquilons for sure. Maybe another Commissar, Primaris Psyker, Regimental Priests (doubtful since this will be updated with new codex). I have 2 of the 3 Taurox Primes and 2 Valkyries. I want to keep the army leaning towards rapid insertion, fast units and non standard Astra Militarum units. While looking I found this:
While it is legen
Well that was a good hobby weekend.....well 4 day weekend. My Fiancé had PRK (Photorefractive keratectomy is a laser eye surgery similar to LASIK), since she already had LASIK, done a few years ago so she was down most the weekend so I got to do hobby time while watching the kids, with exception of Monday due to wedding planning meetings and Friday was her surgery so once we were home it was hobby time.
Friday while waiting for her procedure to finish I purchased some items to make
So as build more Scions, the more I realize that I originally planned them as Inquisitorial Stormtroopers, I have been moving more and more away from that idea. With only 5 models painted, it would be the perfect time to repaint them.
I love the helmets I am using and the skull war paint on the face plates
So the 54th Psian Jackals make the most sense
Good old Duncan had a super easy paint technique for the Psian Jacka
Was planning on painting Purifiers or my Paladins, but found myself working on my Militarum Tempestus, 909th Battalion Charlie Company "Hell Rain".
I have been putting this off as my Tempestor was illegal and I would have to change out his Powerfist for a knife . I built another squad of 5 guys, and have 10 more to build and ordered another 10 more guys.
So as it stands I have planned a 5 man squad (plasma/ volley) attaching to Command (pl
So last week I talked about ordering some heads, a chimera and a few other things.....well I did order some stuff, before I did inventory on what I had and what I would need.
First off I ordered my head. I have 30 breachers to build so 2 boxes should be good*
Regimental advisors...NOPE! A mystic/ Astropath and "Rogue Trader" Ship Captain and the other guy is going to a friends army.
More Grey Knight Terminators......cause
