New Ineptus Astartes Forum

The main local club I belong to has now opened up a new forum with its own URL location. In the past we have used Yahoo groups as our main site on the net, but as we expand and add more active members the Yahoo site is just too restricting. So check it out and jump in on the discussions or just check out the new site.

Ineptus Astartes Club Battle

Another Game Day has come and gone this past weekend, and a good time was had by all. I was a little late to the battle, but I did bring my digital camera this time, and got lots of pics of all the action. I wasn't sure how big the battle way, but I'll guess it was easily somewhere around 6-7K. I only was able to deploy 1050 points of the Grey Death Legion. I didn't deploy a whole lot for the points, but I still got my new lesser daemons into the battle, as well as trying out a greater daemon. I really need to get on top of finishing my greater daemon, my prince wants to go back to being a daemon prince I think. Anyways, the mission was kill points throw down. we had one new member attend and wouldn't you know a new army hit the table, we finally got a Eldar player in the club who is willing to admit it. He took a beating for the first 2 turns and held out much better then me that's for sure. I was tabled and cleaned out by the time the games end came around. I guess that comes with being an assaulty type nurgle player. Alright then, lets check out some of the action!


Who forgot to tell those Striking Scorpions Vulkan was in the house...Ouch!


Are those Eldar I see! WOW!


Ah! The Reven Guard has arrived...although this was after they lost all their Rhinos to Dark Lances....


Raven Guard and Salamander Chapy's rough combo!


Now that is a real Daemon Prince your seeing there.....


No those are not Grey Death Legion...they are some other Legion...


Even the Guard was invited to this throw down....Oh well...


That's not a Prince, but a Greater Daemon, and Necrosis was present. He went one vs one with Shrike and they both knocked each other out, Force Weapon vs Lightning Claws = Double KO!


That's what I call a swamp...Saly Marines...Raven Guard Scouts...Eldar...and Grey Death Legion! Oh My!


My Lesser Daemons arrived! Then proceeded to rout some guard!


Not much left after my forces were wiped out of the table.....

Enjoy!

Expanding My Blog Empire

Well it’s a new month, and I am expanding my internet Empire! Recently I’ve been posting a lot of imperial content on the blog, and with the addition of the Grey Knights last year it’s gotten larger. So now that this site has grown and gotten establish, I am expanding to add a new Blog. This blog will cover my many Imperial Projects, including such things as Titans, Aeronautica Imperialis, and even some xenos like Eldar. Since I will be very involved in my Club’s GamesDay 2010 project this year for the imperial side, I thought I would take that work to that site as well.

The site is going to be primarily an Imperial Guard site, since that is my most active of my imperial forces. The theme of the site will be the Rynn’s World conflict between Orks vs Imperials. This will also include my Crimson Fist space marines, and my older Rynn’s World Heavy Guard, that will be turning into the Rynnsguard IG Force. Inspired by the recent Rynn’s World novel as background this site will be a counter to the Anarchy’s Heart. As always enjoy and comment a lot! Thanks!

Alpha Legion Chosen/Stealth Squad

The Governor stood up as the marine captain and his second entered the office "Welcome heroes of the imperium, it is my pleasure to welcome you to our world." He said
The Captain looked at the Governor and nodded as he looked around and the office "I am Captain Galen of his most glorious Inquisition, Ordo Xeno and we are here to assist the local forces with your current xeno problem." He said
The Governor nodded "Yes, a new Hive Fleet has begun to assault our sector, segmentum command has begun mobilizing the local forces, but it's going to take some time, and our PDF is preparing for a possible invasion, Hive Fleet Hydra they are calling it."
"Our Salamander Chapter forces will soon follow I expect, for now we will begin making plans to hold out." The Alpha Legion commander grinned as he looked at the Governor.

One of the things that seem to fit the Alpha Legion style was sneaking troops and using them to flank your enemies. With the current codex the one unit that excels at this are Chosen Chaos Marines. They are an elite choice, so your limited to 3 units in the FoC, but still this unit has Alpha Legion written all over it. You can pack a lot of firepower into this unit and cause major mayhem with them once they outflank your enemy forces. Arkos chosen were notorious in the Vraks campaign for landing behind enemy lines disguised as space marines and crossing the lines into rebel territory to join their master. Legion also had a unit called Stealth Marines, that were elite Alpha Legion marines who used stealth to strike from unexpected directions. These two examples inspired me to build my own variant of the Stealth Marines in disguise, I took the Chosen Marine entry and built a squad to look like a unit of Ordo Xeno Deathwatch Salamander Marines. I broke out all the bits for this squad and armed them with everything Chosen marines are armed with, and keeping them in the guise of Loyalist marines.



Commanders Codename: Commander Galen "Black Knight"
Unit Name: Stealth Squad RX-79
Type: Arkos Elite Chosen
History: Known for their skills in stealth and disguise squad RX-79 has conducted many infiltration missions behind enemy lines with success. Commander Galen has built a core of troops who have trained and fought together for so long that each marine knows his brothers move before they are made some times. Galen often will employ the disguise of the Ordo Xeno Deathwatch, because its a lesser known branch of the inquisition orders, while applying the authority it comes with to get behind enemy lines and accomplish their mission without giving themselves away to the enemy. The Salamander Chapter has for a long time known of this unit, but has had little luck tracking them down and wiping them out for all the offense they have cause in their name.











Compared to REAL Deathwatch marines, what do you think?

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....


Nurgle Provides more Plague Foulness to the GDL!

Enjoy!
