Dragonlover Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 This week in the hobby I won a game against Space Wolves to propel myself to the top of the ladder I'm running. I also finished my first squad of eight Chosen for my Black Legion. I'll get pics up once I fix my phone.

Captain Antonius Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 YITH I began playing with altering the basic 40k rules and making a genehanced version combining the best parts of both Bolt Action and WH40k. I have yet to play an experimental game with the rule changes, but I'm fairly confident that it should play very well and very different from the current edition of 40k. paulJam 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/274679-today-in-the-hobby-i/page/199/#findComment-4530344 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pr3Mu5 Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 As an update to my earlier post TITH my Marines of the 2nd company of the Ultramarines performed well. Had to rush a guard gunline to score the two objectives I needed to win the game and a lone marine weathered two turns of withering hail of fire from a guard platoon and a Leman Russ Punisher to hold the objective as he tried to force me off it before the other half of my army rolled up his line. He scored me the point that won me the game. Think that brave Brother will be getting a new purity seal and maybe a medal or commendation of some description if I can fashion something for him. We had an hour left after that bloodbath so we set to a quick aggressive 500 point game and I proceeded to bloody his nose a second time. End of turn 5 left him with just a Leman Russ this time at the cost of just 7 assault Marines.

TITH i got a new army painter brush set (dry/regiment/insane... can't get enough insane). also picked up Conquest by chance. $30 (AUD) for new in box on the bargain table seemed too good to pass even if i never play it... what with FFG/GW about to become a thing of the past.

Chaplain Raeven Posted October 15, 2016 Share Posted October 15, 2016 Today in the hobby I discovered Who--sorry, Wargame Exclusive. I had a look out of curiosity. My first impressions was that they had decent mini's, apart from the obvious ripp-off. But then I browsed through the non-SM mini's. Strange guys... Naked female techpriests? Tau in bikini? Really? And who had the bright idea to place boobs on Necrons? Too bad really, since their non-female mini's are actually pretty decent.

Chaplain Raeven Posted October 15, 2016 Share Posted October 15, 2016 TITH I was lucky enough to find a Seraphicus model for €20 on ebay. Considering the second cheapest one was €50, I'm a happy man.

CommodusXIII Posted October 15, 2016 Share Posted October 15, 2016 Today was my first Armies on Parade event. I didn't place, but sneaking a peek at the final tally almost all the votes that I got were for first choice. I just didn't quite get enough of them. So, at the very least, I had a cult following.

Soldier of Dorn Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 Last night in the hobby I realized I probably need a new detail brush.

Knight of the Raven Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 Today out of the hobby I discovered the song Luna's Future and thought it could easily be adapted to suit the Horus Heresy. I see a cold wind blowing throughI see days neither just nor freeI see a future caused by youI see a path not meant to beThe future should be filled with reasonDreams and wishes brought to lifeBut the days ahead echo with treasonNo time for hope when all is strifeWhatever might have beenAll the dreams that humans shareBecause of you, LupercalNow the future is a cold nightmare Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/274679-today-in-the-hobby-i/page/199/#findComment-4536212 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Viridia Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 TITHI got my second copy of BaC delivered, going to split it with my dad to see what he can do with the characters and the Contemptor. While working on a Battlescribe file, I was lead down the random path of musing on whether the Celestial Lions are actually Dark Angel successors just because of the link between Angels being heavenly beings and the chapter being led by the Lion. Tenuous, but it makes an interesting counter against the normal 'super-secretive' First Legion successors.
