1st Stormtrooper Squad finished!

So here are the final results of my fist Stormtrooper squad. I’m considering adding some special weapons to the team in the future, possibly some Meltaguns or Plasma guns. I will also add on to the squad with a Rhino later on, for now they are walking along with the other grey knights.











Enjoy! :)

The To Do List for 2010

Well it's time to sit back and take stock of where I stand and where I am going. Being the beginning of the year it’s a good time to make a fun To Do List of my most wanted projects to finish. March is rolling around soon, and this will mark 2 years since I took the dive into Chaos, and slowly I'm getting close to the magical 10K number of fully painted and based points. So many projects and so little time, but this is the battle plan, at least till the middle of the year when I will cook up a new To Do list to focus on. Of course this is never solid, as other things are bound to step in and take priority. The biggest issue right now is what I will be doing for our club to help out with in this year’s Games Day event. If I can finish at least half of this list victory will be MINE!

Reinforcements from the Warp!

My Grey Death Legion grew last month with the addition of 21 plague bearers as lesser daemons. During the last open customer market at the bunker I was able to score two squads of these little buggers in a good deal, along with a greater daemon of Nurgle. The GD is currently being built, but these guys were easy to paint up and ready for tournament use in my army. I've always wanted to field some demonic forces along with my Plague Marine troops, but I never had the right models to use with them. Using other none nurgle models never felt well, and I didn't want to convert something. I was hoping GW would make these guys in plastic soon, but then I got this deal and figured why not and got at least 21 daemons, which I can use in future Codex: Daemon armies if I should ever try that dex out for a test drive. With the ability to assault on the turn they appear on the table, these guys will be an annoying unit for anyone to deal with, and fun for me!


For Grandfather Nurgle!


Guts....Guts...and more Guts!


I'm thinking of the #1.....


Which way did they go....

New Allies to the Anarchy's Heart

Arkos looked on as the Stormbird finally finished landing and the assault ramp slowly dropped down. "I believe these are the the new allies the High Command informed us of Captain Arkos" The Shredder said as they stood waiting for the envoy to disembark.

"The Markings reminds me of the Slaanesh Subjugator we saw in battle last year." Arkos said quietly. "Perhaps we were being tested then. This should prove to be an interesting alliance."

So after finishing my Subjugator last year, I gave some thought to creating a small Emperor's Children force to go along with my engine of destruction. After a few deals here and there, gathering up some bits online, and getting a cool mounted model for the commander, I began to scheme up this new army. The Subjugator provided the basic paint scheme of this new force. Here is my prototype model, the only one finished so far. I have a mix of both current noise marines and some previous edition ones too I plan to work into a combined force.

This is will be a change from the Grey Death Legion with more expensive models points wise. Noise Marines are the cheapest cult troops in the CSM Dex right now, and I think under-rated in my opinion. A good squad of these guys with noise weapons might be a boost to my regular Alpha marines in a battle, in terms of firepower alone. Along with the marines I have a squad of daemonetts I plan to add on as lesser daemons.

Hive Fleet Eclipse Awakens.....

This past weekend marked the return of one of my all time fave armies in 40K, TYRANIDS! When I first began playing 40K the two armies that stood out for me were IG and Tyranids, because of the movie Aliens being my fave movie of all time. Nids are just a fun and crazy change from the usual humans of 40K, be it IG or Marines. Due to my other armies being more of a priority to paint, I haven't given my bugs that much paint time. I just enjoy gaming with this army for the most part.

The new Codex is just awesome, the new background is cool to read. To read up on a Nid vs Necron battle is killer cool! Some of the Ork, Chaos Forces and even Daemonic forces under siege by these buggy monster was awesome to read about. The new characters and units now available have really spruced up this army a lot. Not to mention all the conversion ideas that are now floating about. Along with picking up a codex I grabbed up 2 boxes of the new Gargoyles, and a new Trygon. The models are some of the best and most unique product put out by GW. I have already built one box of Gargoyles and they look fantastic! My rolling horde of gaunts will be seeing time on the table soon once I digest this new codex. Can you tell I'm excited....

My own creation Hive Fleet Eclipse will be awakening once more to devour all in its path again.

The FW Trygon is the Coolest looking Bug put out there...in my opinion...

"Greetings from Eskrador....Wish you were here!"

Among the few the things I got finished over the holidays was this battlescape terrain. I'm usually not an owner of a lot of terrain simply because I have an entire GW Battle Bunker down the road from my place where I can play with tons of terrain there, but sometimes a cool piece will catch my eye. This one was one of those, and I grabbed it up when it came out. I finally got around to finishing the work I started a few months ago, and here are the results. Now it's time to have some fun with the camera and some models, to show it off a bit.

The trees are all pinned to the terrain for ease of transport, and one of the sticking points for me for a while was what would the Rhino be painted. So this one goes out to all of those Ultramarine players out there. Heh Heh Heh! The Alpha Legion is here......

Dreadnought Baltar!

Baltar is the first dread I put together for my chaos forces. A standard metal Chaos dread armed with a Plasma Cannon, and close combat arm. I'm not a fan of the current chaos dread rules, but again its always a gamble when you put it on the table, especially armed the way this one is. I got him with what he had at the time, and had no other options, but I think the paint job worked out well and he looks great.


Unit Name: Baltar
Quote: "By Your Command"
Type: Dreadnought
History: Baltar the Techmarine was an agent for Alpharius during the heresy. Working on Terra gathering technical and scientific information for the legion, Baltar was present during the great siege of Terra. While Baltar was not on location at the Imperial Palace he was involved in the fighting on the Merican front when the forces of Horus arrived. He fought his way out of the Terra system during the chaos of the siege to rejoin his brothers.

Baltar was gravely injured during the Eskrador campaign against the Ultramarines. Because his injuries were too serious, the apothecaries had no choice but to entomb him in a dreadnought in order to save his life. From this day forward the Techmarine that was Baltar was no more, now he was Dreadnought Baltar.


Fear the Plasma Cannon!



On the attack with the Legion of the Dragon!
