Hi all, I recently, well it’s taken a year, returned to the hobby and built an army using the new (to me) Necromunda range. I’ve linked gallery and will put up a proper post with army description at some point, I just wanted to share my allbeit limited and amateur work http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/gallery/album/17303-inquisition-army/

Hello! Ive been working on rebuilding my guard and have been developing a story to go along with them as me and my friends start campaigning. I hope this can be an area to work on and showcase the lore I've worked on for my section of the Imperium. This will be a developing area, where I'm going to add to the backstory of Vilka and the current happenings on their little globe. I hope to have regiment details, as well as short stories and such as I write them. I want to work on my skills as a writer, and hopefully get you all some entertainment along the way.

So with the release of 8th i decided to spread my wings and start another army, having only collected Space marines for the past 5 years thought it was about time for a fresh start. after looking at the upcoming codex's the astra militarum caught my eye especially with the images the community site put out with the different regiments of guard, so i had hoped that we might see some new models come out with the codex sadly that was not to be and they where kitbashes. So i started to have a look around and see what other companies made stuff that fitted in with the vision that i had for the army, which is a hybrid of British WW1/2 so something along the lines of death korps of krieg. below is the first two test models for the project. i'm using the British WW2 colour scheme think it works well and am happy with how the units have come out i plan to use them for all the troops in my army while using the GW vehicles with conversions done to them to fit in with the general theme of the army. have 3 more test models to paint up then ill post some pictures of them all together until then comments and criticisms are welcome

I'm building the Stormlord Vulcan megacannon. The instructions for that page has the 'no glue' symbol. What is it referring to? Just the cannon to the tank, or the cannon parts themselves?

Hello Everyone! The following is a 9th edition adaptation of a list that yielded good results in 8th (I mostly play in TTS until I can afford all the minis). First some notes: # I decided to put everything in a brigade because I tend to spam "overlapping fields of fire" and I need the CP. # I never see the Vindicare in competitive lists, but he drops autarchs and smash captains like flies in turn 1 or 2 and I have come to love him. # The sentinels are not only to fill slots, more often than not my opponent spends valuable antitank shots to remove them instead of targetting the TCs. So they are some insurance if I don't get turn 1. My biggest concern and the reason I am asking for advice is the infantry. I played once with 6 squads and 5 Bullgryns, only to lose because my squads were wiped out by turn 3 and despite the Bullgryns surviving I lost control of the board. This list has 10 vanilla squads, no heavy weapons, no plasma, just some good old FRFSRF wall of guns. Is this an efficient use of points or would you get something else for 200pts?
