Currently starting work on the Proteus. :)

That's a bit of a change from the Armoured Spearhead you were going to do, can't wait to see it finished man

[Sandlemad]

That is a preposterously cool centurion conversion. One of the only ones I've seen to reject the model's original pose. Grim confidence, looks great.

[Caillum]

@Sandlemad - Thanks heaps man! Yeah, don't know how, but I saw the potential in there somewhere.

 

@Rangaman, we missed that about Lachdannan's list. Not a big deal - luck played a much bigger part in the game! And yes, I had some wild ideas to run 30 Breachers in Land Raider Proteus', but couldn't justify the points-cost or the £-cost. :)

[Lachdannan]

Great write up. That was a very interesting game, very cool and that saboteur totally deserves man of the match. Such a jammy fellow! Now you just need to do the other characters that have done exceptionally well in the other games!

 

 

Good to see life back in this thread, will you be re-configuring any parts of your list or are you happy with their performance? Would love to see everything all lined up, even if they are unpainted.

Edit: Also is Lachs list legal? I count three non LA units and three LA units, where I think LA must be in the majority...

Woops! My bad, totally didn't see that when I was making it. Next game though, I'll leave Horus on the Vengeful Spirit to lick his wounds and let a subordinate do the dirty work. Thanks for picking that up.
