This weekend I had the pleasure of playing an awesome game that Steve, the owner of my FLGS Meeplemart, has developed. He calls it Xeno-Terror and has put a lot of work into developing the rules, board, pieces and components used to play. The game looks and plays like a amazing combination of Space Hulk, 40k, Aliens and the Doom board game. Where this game really shines is the level of detail put
Read More...Leave a CommentEven though I haven't been posting much these past few months, I've been hard at work getting my Dark Eldar army put together. Due to our 40k League starting up back in November I pretty much had to get my 1500pt army built quick. While everything isn't quite 100% built, the majority of it is. The core of my army revolves around 2 squads of 5 Wracks in Venoms and a 20-man Warrior squad. Since

So I dug out the Dark Eldar models I ordered so long ago and got to work. My plan is to run two squads of 3 Grotesques in my Dark Eldar army. I thought that with a little converting, the GW Finecast Grotesque could be a decent start. But still, I wouldn't want 6 of the same model. So with 2

If you have not yet, please go read the summary of Day 1 before reading this post! Fourth game: Chris - Underworld First game of the second day was against the Tournament Organizer! This was a really interesting game, as up to this point I was playing against fairly bashy

My buddy Tristan from GWPertinent has been trying to convince me to attend one of the many Bloodbowl tournaments he goes to every year, but I was always a little hesitant to go. But with Blingtoof being held at my local gaming store, I didn't
Read More...View Comments (1)I'm finally done painting my Nurgle Rotter Bloodbowl team. I first bought these guys at least 9 years ago. I quickly painted them up back then and used them for a long time. Then, a couple years back, I had the urge to strip and repaint them all which I did... but only to about 75% completion. Now that I'm going to Blingtoof's Bloodbowl tournament this weekend for some reason, it was time to

It's took longer than I would have liked, but I finally finished up a pack of plague marines for the Death Guard army I'm building for Astro next year. At least my list small enough that these nine guys are already close to 1/3 of the total infantry. The look I'm aiming for with these guys is a heresy/early post-heresy look by using the pre-heresy Death Guard colours, but with lots of areas

We've been playing a lot of non-warhammer games at an awesome local gaming store called MeepleMart. We've been thinking of switching gears back over to 40k and the owner of MeepleMart (Steve) overheard us talking about this and suggested we run our 40k League there in the store. Not

I won't be going into too much detail, but by then end of this post you should have a good idea of how exactly a game of MERCS actually plays. Each turn is carried out on a per-model initiative order. Each model, on both sides, roll a d10 at the beginning of every turn to determine each model's initiative
Read More...Leave a CommentSo I think it's settled. Even though I'm going to be working on a Haemonculi Coven themed Dark Eldar army, I'm still going to have to work in a Court of the Archon. Between the amazing Medusae and Ur-Ghul the unveiled a few weeks back and now these amazing Sslyth and Lhamhean Poisoner models... I just don't think I can help myself. I... must... paint... freaky alien things! No announcement
