The Enemy does not sleep, nor shall we. - Chapter I part 5

"How dare you," screamed Deputy Governor Reeta Nirom at the robed man. "Colonel, I suggest you stand down immediately," calmly said the Black Armored figure standing next to the robed man holding a Hot-Shot lasgun aimed at her. There was 20 of the Black Armored figures in the room. All carrying Militarum Tempestus Scion style weapons. their eye glowed red, bone skull paint on their facemasks. No ranks, no ribbons, no markings at all. Their sudden appearance as they

The Enemy does not sleep, nor shall we. - Chapter I part 4

The air was thick with lasbolt rounds from lasrifles, las pistols, multilaser off the chimera, auto rounds from autoguns and auto pistols, Heavy stubber rounds, solid slug rounds from the combat shotgun as the unknown assailants and the Vigilant squad 83 and Marshal Mat Dylon engaged each other. It felt like thirty minutes of combat had passed but it was less than 2 minutes since the gunfight had started. "Vigilant Phard, I know your busy, with this gunfight, but anything on Comm

"Planetary Governor Augulant, Planetary Governor Augulant," screamed Governor's Senior comms operator Van Der Flint as he ran down the hall. Mord Van Der Flint and his family has been serving the Planetary Governor and his family for centuries. Mord has known Corvin Augulant since they were kids and have been friends since then. While Corvin left for to the PDF, Mord went into the family business. Eventually Corvin took over as Planetary Governor and saw his old friend, Mord, he

Iron Hands Rhino

I have finished up a 5th rhino for my Iron Hands: I've gone with a different dozer blade and a havoc launcher on this one as it is for the Graviton Shredder Support Squad so it stands out and I don't lose track of them. The Havoc Launcher provides a bit of anti-infantry firepower to a squad which is very anti-tank focussed. As I can only run the Graviton Shredder squad in a Head of the Gorgon list, this will only get a run out then (unless I buy some plasma guns or something t

Jetbike Command Squad

I finally finished my jetbike command squad for my Iron Hands using the now OOP Iron Hands Mark III Torsos, Shoulder Pads, and Heads: Their weapons and shields come from a variety of sources: 1. The power maul on the left model as you look at the photo is from the new 30k melee weapons upgrade set. 2. The power fists are from the Mark IV kit. 3. The banner is from the old Cadian Command Squad with the detailing filed off and a brass rod as the banner pole.

Land Raider Proteus

I have also assembled and started painting a Land Raider Proteus fto carry around my Gorgon Terminators (this is the only shot I have of it right now). The Cataphractii Terminators will be in the Phobos so I won't forget which unit is in which transport on the tabletop. I have to say this is a much nicer kit to put together than the Phobos Land Raider, the parts just fit together much better. I have started painting and will post a photo of the progress soon.

Militia Discipline Master

I have kitbashed up a discipline master for the militia, this guy is made up of 3d printed legs (I do not know the STL I got them from a friend), the laspistol arm from the now OOP Krieg HQ command squad, a closed greatcoat torso, veteran beret head and power axe (all from Anvil), and the Scion coat. I have had to greenstuff the waist joint a bit as the 3d printed legs were slightly larger than Anvil or old GW Cadian legs but it is not noticeable now that the model has

Marshal Mat Dylon of the Adeptus Arbites 8th Precinct on Khymara Prime sat in the transport area of the wheeled Chimera. Vigilant Squad 83 sat with him. Vigilant Proctor Yin Pliskec was sitting across from Marshal Mat Dylon, his winged helmet on his lap. His black armor, while normally shiny, was showing some damage from a recent encounter against a gang ambush, as was the entire squad. Dented and scarred armour, green fatigues torn. Vigilant Proctor Pliskec shaved head had beads of sweat rolli

"We are at War with forces too terrible to comprehend......."

"We cannot afford mercy for any of its victims too weak to take the correct course. Mercy destroys us; it weakens us and saps our resolve. Put aside all such thoughts. They are not worthy of Inquisitors in the service of Our Emperor. Praise His name for in our resolve we only reflect his purpose of will."

The Exorcists- Enochian Guard

The Enochian Guard is an elite formation of Orisons* in the Exorcists Chapter. Making up the Veterans of the Chapter's 1st Company, they typically are equipped with Terminator Armour. The Guard is named after Enoch Trismegistus, the Exorcists very first Chapter Master. The Enochian Guard pride themselves on being Daemon slayers, and membership to its numbers carries a requirement of having slain a manifested Daemon in single combat. So I keep running the idea of running Exorcist

Blue Stuff testing - an alternative for repairs and missing parts

Hi folks, As CtA25 is coming, I started refraining my painting activity for anything related to 30/40k or associated universe. Target is to get enough material to gather them in a single faction and try to get them painting while competing for enough points. And, maybe, get a badge. Yet getting painting on standby does not mean getting all other tasks associated with hobby on standby. After all I still have some models to build or kitbash. Plus some plasticard job awaiting. And

"After a period of recuperation,...."

"....the subjects were instructed in the methods of combating the Daemonic, trained in the use of the 666 verses of the Book of Exorcisms and equipped with the weapons of an Exorcist. The two companies were then put into action on a Daemon-infested world on the northern fringes of the Eye of Terror. With a squad of the Grey Knights held in reserve, the Exorcist Space Marines achieved a kill ratio of 97:1. Impressive under normal circumstances, but against the Daemonic, I'm sure you'll agree that

Warhammer World- Nottingham

OMG.......Store #2 of the Honeymoon. WARHAMMER WORLD, such an unreal experience. The exhibit hall, the gaming area, the store, and even with Bugman's being remodeled it was still cool thing. The Rhino, the Space Marine statue, and LT. Titus such a site to see in person. Yes I am wearing a Grey Knight shirt. I was shocked to see the Tyranid invasion of Fenris was in the main lobby one of my favorite pieces in the lobby was this mode

The Enemy does not sleep, nor shall we. - Prelude

The planet of Khymara Prime was quiet. While the Hive cities may had some light activity to them, the main city, Khymara Prime Proper, was quiet. Khymara Prime Proper consisted of Imperial Adminstratum buildings, Ecclesiarch buildings and an Adeptus Arbites Precient and the older ruined Imperial buildings. Nothing visible stirred in the buildings, ruined or not. The Convent of the Valorous Heart with it's high walled fence had limited torches lit. The Governess's Palace was dark along with the v

Warhammer- Dublin

At this point on the Honeymoon it has became a hunt for me to find Warhammer stores near our hotel. Originally our plan was to stay at the Zanzibar Locke Hotel in Dublin (99 meters away) but changed it to Trinity City Hotel (850 meters away). This store was about twice the size of my home state stores. But had some really nice models on display. I thought I got a pic of the amazing Iron Snakes that the staff member did. Store #5

Warhammer- Edinburgh

On 04/30 the Wife and I were in Edinburgh, Scotland.....Warhammer store 0.1 mile for hotel, wife was slightly annoyed which I was very humorous to me. Awesome Kill Team display board. Store had a limited amount of Forgeworld and was about the same size as my local stores. I did get to hang out with the employees for a bit. Plus look at that view of Edinburgh Castle!

Warhammer - York

Saving Warhammer World for the last.... So on 04/29 My wife and I were walking to our hotel in York, I laughed as we were 280 feet from Warhammer York. This would be Warhammer store #3. It was a little bigger than the Warhammer Stores here. And I loved their store display. I did purchase my Astra Militarum Codex here.

Warhammer Store- London

While I was trying to keep a blog while on my 19 day Honeymoon in UK/ Ireland and I really disliked typing it out on my phone and trying to keep it forum related. My Wife and I planned on going to Nottingham for a day (04/28) and going to Warhammer World while there. We arrived in London on 4/22 and crashed out. The morning 04/23 We were about to begin our tour of London, I was curious where the closest Warhammer Store was. Turns out it was just under a mile away from hotel.
