    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

    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

“I am His sword as He is my armour” Vol 2 Part 2

So there I was working on my Adepta Sororitas  painting my Retributors and building my Sanctifiers (which are finally done). Next thing I know, my Adepta Sororitas are back in display cabinet and Grey Knights are on the table! They just teleported on to my desk…I swear.    See I swore. Truth is I love my Adepta Sororitas army, and Monday my wife and I leave for the UK, Scotland, and Ireland for almost 3 weeks and I don’t want them lying around in our office in case of little hands or p

When Prognosticars detected that the Great Unclean One, Co'vid, would descended on Khymara Prime and only the Forces of the Grey Knights could stop it. The Prognosticar decided that a Rapid Strike force be deployed and waiting Co'vid's appearance could save humanity. Led by 2nd Brotherhood Landry De Lauzon and 2nd in command by Techmarine Talus and his 2 servitor squads Montessa and Calatrava, Venerable Dreadnought Draper, Strike squads De Caux, De Monglane, and De Hautville, Purgation squad Des

"I am His sword as He is my armour." Vol 2 Part 1

" TO THE RIGHTEOUS WE BRING HOPE. TO THE TAINTED WE BRING FIRE."     Well my group is diving in to Chaos. One member has a full Daemon Army Led by Be'lakor and may have Thousand Sons, one is building Emperor's Children, @The_Oni_of_Hindsight has started World Eaters, and finally one is thinking about building Death Guard. If I was every to return to Chaos it would be Black Legion or Night Lords but I have enough armies and I serve the Emperor of Mankind.   With the

Reinforcing the Hammer, the preface

Wow, It is December already.....    As I look toward 2025, I am thinking what the future holds in the Terms of the Hobby.  I know part of the Hobby will be going to Warhammer World (and maybe a stop at Element Games has been suggested) in April/ May 2025 as part of my honeymoon excursion across England, Scotland and Ireland. The wife and I are discussing turning Office/ Hobby area into a spiritual room/ Library/ Office and moving hobby area to garage, which means garage remodel which m

"The machine spirit is prepared."

Back in June 13, 2023 I posted about building 5 Land Raiders (here). Well outside of the weapons, I only built a Hybrid Mk IIb Land Raider (Forgeworld, GW, and Blood and Skulls back vents and tracks)  for my Purifiers.        Well playing with different builds and needing Lascannons to deal with armor threats,  another Land Raider was in order.     Finally using the FW brass etch from years gone by plus FW Grey Knights Doors

"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

"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....

My last blog was vague.......

So in my last blog I was vague. I found some 3d printed parts I thought would perfect for the 20 Leviathan Terminators I have but it turns out they are not for the easy build. Good thing I looked again and did not order them. But I am going to do another project instead, more on that later.    With me cancelling my terminator plan and my house is in the final days of being sold, I'm looking at adding more stuff to my hobby area: Vortex Paint mixer, Neatfi Light/ Magnifier, airbrush spr

Grand Army part 4

Hello Frateris,   Today I am discussing the 4th Installment of my Grand Army Idea.  Part 1 covered my Inquistorial Forces, Part 2 were the Scions, Part 3 Sisters of Silence. While this is covering my Grand Army idea, right now the internal debate is do I add Order of the Valorous Heart Adepta Sororitas army and My Raptor Space Marines to the Grand Army or leave them as separate forces that are planet side (Adepta Sororitas) and reconnaissance force (Raptors).

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.

"Why should I fear the Daemon? He has no power over me."— Brother-Captain Castavor Drak

Well I wanted to get some modeling done the past few days but was not able too. Adulting  . Would not recommend. Zero out of Five stars. Actually it was fun, spending time with girlfriend and her kids, and since she is leaving for a cruise in a week, modeling has to take a back seat for a few days more.    We are  approaching the Call to Arms event, 10th edition drops on 06/24, and possibly more fun things.  My Grey Knights are the most completed of my owned armies, so they will be my
