large.20240629_105455.jpg.1c84b1f3293bf1e32d80ecaa8f3b58c7.jpgJust a quick update from me today. Since I had a few moments in this busy week, I thought I'd tackle some low-hanging fruit for the Sigmar VI project and do some bases, this is generally because the Howling Griffons are Imperial and therefore lazy, where the Secessionists have to work for a living - er, I digress.

 

I haven't really done many of the desert-themed ones before, so it was something nicely different from the lunar Khymara set ups I've been working on, and the warm tones are hopefully interesting to the eye. These are for the Eliminators (or true-scale scout snipers...) I mentioned, kindly donated by mad scientist, Huron advocate, and friend, @Xin Ceithan

 

Of the actual lore and significance to the Badab War of Sigmar VI, again, I could find nothing. Once more it's one of those throwaway little titbits, (like the mission legions, IMHO, I was there in the beginning, when Horus slew the Emperor, and to be honest he's doing a bad job of it, because he's had a four goes so far...ahem) that serve to just deepen everything.

They had lost one of their Strike Cruisers and much of their heavy materiel at Khymara, so this makes a lot of sense, and opens up a few possibilities.

 

Anyway, thanks for reading, and have a good one!

“From the streets of Badab Prime to the sands of Sigmar Six…

We will kill the dogs of Terra, if not with boltrounds than with sticks…”

 

Well, this is obviously one of these “gaming in the gaps” opportunities, then :thumbsup:

Or, you know, gaming amidst the dunes, or something like that.

 

I always like the idea of putting the narrative somewhere out of the obvious comfort zone of the Chapter/ Legion portrayed, so I’m looking forward to these downed and probably doomed Griffon Guerrileros
