The Instrument of His will!

Well what a month is has been. Little hobby time, long vacation from work, massive 12,000 pt Horus Heresy game, and got Married! But work vacation time is over so back to work at my real job....   So I have been thinking about updating my Grandmaster De Sonnac and well I do have another Voldus...     Psycannon Grandmaster   Well then since I was building him I figured I would build some the Inquisitors I have laying around.       I built

"I am His sword as He is my armour." Part 4

Well Nemesis Dreadknght Galahad is done and had his first battle. And like all painted models seeing the table for the first time died. Killed some models, took 10 wounds in bottom of turn 1 and killed a couple models in the melee then was shot to death Turn 2.

"I am His sword as He is my armour." Part 3

Welcome to Part 3 of my Nemesis Dreadknight paint log.  I have 3 more to paint (1 Grand Master Nemesis Dreadknight and 2 Nemesis Dreadknights) and I will apply lessons learned to those ones. Most importantly finish build the bases before starting painting. I need to pick up more 3d printed basing bits as it did speed up my basing process vs me making them. I really like the Army Painter Fanatic Effects  Plasma Coil and Data Slate Glows. I may have to repaint all my Nemesis force weapons glow eff

"I am His sword as He is my armour."

Trying to get back in the swing of painting has been tough. I have been dealing with the stress of being a new  (step) dad, wedding planning, normal life, and work. While it is not depression or it may be a slight depression, it kept me from getting motivated in the hobby.  It also could be the pile of Grey plastic sprues, base coated models and boxes of unbuilt models.  So with Imperial Agents coming out I knew I would be going to the LGS to pick up my preorder, I figure why not get a game or t

"Armoured in faith, shielded by devotion and armed with purity of purpose."

My previous blog post I talked about getting third of my  6 kids the start to their Armies (Blood Angels, Genestealer Cult, and Death Guard).  The remaining 3 are a little too young still.    Well Saturday was preorder day as we all know. I had a huge list of what I wanted and only missed out on 2 things.... both the Daemonbreaker and Oath of Damnation novels.       I will get the soft cover or audible versions eventually.   While that was what

The Daemon has many forms. You must know them all.

I should be working on my CTA 2024 Vow and I just don't have the motivation for some reason. I have been sitting around trying to paint my Ravenguard, Grey Knights, or working on my Adepta Sororitas and nada. I was looking for a Grey Knight parts and found a bag of stuff I have been waiting to build and well it they are built now     Inquistor Hector Rex and his retinue, Astropath, Black Ship Captain (count as Rogue Trader)

With Codex: Imperial Agents on the horizon, in a previous Blog post, I talked about my Grand Army idea......  that was almost a year ago.... so I guess it is time for an update. According to the WarComm article :   "Should you instead wish to field an entire army of Imperial Agents, the Codex offers four new Detachments which add their own Detachment rules, Stratagems, and Enhancements to the mix, allowing you to support a full Inquisitorial force with no limitations on the number of u

"One Unbreakable Shield Against The Coming Darkness"

So last night I sat down to organize my Grey Knight Terminators to see how many more I needed to make my Brotherhood Terminators 10 man......cause why not. There are 2 squads that have 8 men, 2 squads have 7 and the last 2 have 6 men. I have 2 unopened boxes of terminators so another 2 more would allow me to max out the 6 squads with Apothecaries and Ancients I could then add ancients to my Paladin squads.    Below is my Terminator Armor 2nd Brotherhood.

"We fight for the Imperium, not our souls!"

As the threat of Combat Patrol against my kids looms ever so closer, the more I feel the pull towards my Grey Knights. I have lots of little side projects for them including more banner bearers and increasing squad size. Plus all the vehicles I have for them          Plus getting some of the servants from Skaventide to add to my Inquisition.  I think I may have to revisit my Kill Team and I am hoping for a codex soon....

"Too the righteous, we bring hope. To the tainted, we bring fire!"

Well we had a surprise leak today in the form of Imperial Agents Codex pages. And well I am happy to see that, as it justifies me continuing down the path I am headed.   My tenure as an Adeptus Astartes' player has ended.  It's been coming down the line for a while. It started when Scouts were removed as Troops so I was forced to replace them with Phobos. And then the rule of 3 came into effect so I lost scout squads. Now that Phobos are not troops, I see no reason to play Adeptus Asta

Reinforcements inbound!

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

The Daemon has many forms. You must know them all.

You must tell the Daemon from his disguise and root him out from the hidden places. Trust no-one. trust not even yourself. It is better to die in vain than to live an abomination. The zealous martyr is praised for his valour: the craven and the unready are justly abhorred.     Well back from the first family vacation with the kids and had a blast at Disneyland with them.  While there I kept thinking about my projects and more more I leaned into focusing on my Grey Knights a

We have returned!

Well the desk is usable!!! I have to pick up a few more things for it, Mini vortex paint mixer, Neatfi magnifier/ light, display cabinet and well empty boxes under desk but I can return to painting and building models.        I think I need some Raven Guard HH art and maybe more Adepta Sororitas and Joy Toy Grey Knights.

Call To Arms- UPDATE- Vow Failed

Well, I have 15 days until the Call to Arms is over and I am officially declaring I failed. Normally I would have to push through but every time I go hobby time it is interrupted.  This is not a complaint, adulting sucks, but I went from having a GF with no kids and lots of free time to having a GF that  has 6 adopted kids that all have special needs and need my time to help her. She is the love of my life so hobbies had to take a back seat. And this is on top of being short handed at work and w

At what price did we succeed......

Well game 2 of 10th ed is in the books. I lost. It was not even close.  After pulling gambit cards at the end of turn 3 no way I could win as the 1 card I needed was removed at random. I only had the Interceptor Justicar and Librarian left.     Game was a moral victory as I took out most of his cultist and the Noctilith Crown   Highlights-  Ven Dread (lascannon/ Missile Launcher)- rolling 2's to hit turn 1 and turn 2.  Greatest 155 pts spent in list.  190 pt Purg

For Titan part 2

Yesterday I talked briefly about this weekends game. Originally it was supposed to be 1k but we decided to make it 1500 pts instead. My opponent, Entropmancer, is playing his Iron Warriors, which will have Terminators, cultist, Chaos Marines, Chaos guard, hell brutes, master of possession, and other units. With that in mind I began recalculating my list as needed.    List 1:   Brother- Captain Brother Librarian (Warlord and Domina Liber Daemonica enhancement) Brothe

For Titan!

So with game time this weekend I was leaning towards My Raptors, but I switched it up and I am playing my Grey Knights, as they are painted and I don't need to paint anything. Still toying with lists. Happy I have so much done as it gives me a lot of options. I believe I am playing against my friends Iron Warriors.
