My 40K Prospects for the 2020 Season.

Well we’re getting close to 2020…. er, I guess I should say we’re a few months INTO 2020, and I haven’t seemed to fall in love with anything I’m playing. I like to rant with the assistance of pictures, so let’s have a look at what I’m painting, and considering. First up the joke that has become the Custodes. I

Eldar Craftworlds: Do Wraith Units Work? 10 Game Competitive Summary over the Christmas Break.

Well this little piece comes as a reminder, to myself as much as anyone, how my Eldar seem to function from the point of view of getting Wraith units to work. The core of the list is loosely the following: 2, and then 1 squad of Wraiths (now on foot, x10 with Axe and Shield). 3 Vibro Cannons. (Cheap and

Chaos Black Legion at ITC: Day 2 / Game 6

Finally we’re at the last game. After a close game, but still a loss vs triple Knights/Custodes I felt like I would get a break on match ups. But instead I would hit the Deldar Airshow once again! (Similar to game 1/day 1). My opponent’s list: HQ: Archon x 2 Troops: Kabalite Warriors x 3 Venom x 5 Warlock +

Chaos at ITC. Day 2 / Game 5

So with that last victory I somehow managed to find myself in a very strong match up… Triple Knights, 3 Shield Captains on jetbikes, a Vindicare and an AdMech Batallion! How I get this match up at 2-2 is a bit weird. Anyway this is another game where I really wanted to go first, and for the 5th game in

Chaos Black Legion at ITC: Day 2: Game 4 vs Imperial Fists

So day two comes along and deep down I’m hoping my more or less, ‘fun’ Black Legion list gets to dodge some of the stuff I’d been seeing… the hardcore Astra, the flyer spam Eldar, etc. However I must have had high battle point differentials because I found myself against some tough competition. Starting Day 2, I played against a

Post ITC Tournament: Quick Pics

Finishing a 6 game tournament seems a lot more grueling than 5 games for some reason. It’s only one more game but I think taking you into that Sunday evening, knowing you gotta work tomorrow can play on your mind. It’s a lot of thinking… or in my case drooling. Nevertheless it’s a lot of fun. I will do a

ITC Tournament Considerations… Black, Gold or Blue?

I normally don’t do posts of me thinking out loud, but I wondered if I’d get any feedback. This year an ITC event has snuck up on me and I’m trying to figure out what I could bring that’s painted. The problem is the last ITC event I was at I did well enough, but I sold 3-4 armies that

A Prot 40K Battle Report: Deathwatch vs. Genestealer Cult 2K + FAQ / Abominant testing.

Greetings everyone. I typically do Battle reports on the Bolter and Chainsword but we’ve been down for a while now however we should be back up sooner rather than later with any luck. In the meantime I thought I should put up a quick batrep based on my trials and tribulations with Deathwatch. They’ve been surprisingly difficult to play and

New Deathwatch Kill Team Releases!

Just a very quick update because I’ve been waiting with baited breath for this one… Deathwatch have been spotted in the release rotation for Kill Team. As we know every race is getting their own box set which basically follows the pattern of: A Squad of your faction’s Kill Team. A Set of Terrain pieces which come with their own

Should you take Mortarion in ITC format tournaments.

Well I’m far from an expert. Aside from playing the army for quite a while, and on and off for several editions, I really don’t play ITC format a ton. In fact, if I’m completely honest, I can only run ITC in small doses, and then I’m good for a while. With that said if you’ve been following my trials
