A New Chaos Iron Warriors Test Theme.

The new Chaos codex is officially released as I write this. The sheer amount of combo’s and interesting army ideas buzzing around my head make me feel like Huron with that Hamidraya constantly nattering in his ear. Here’s what I’ve come with for the new look Iron Warriors. I used the new(er) Warpsmith model of course, and a couple of

Black Legion Chaos Space Marine Army up for Sale.

I figure I have built and painted this army for years, and it’s time to part with it. I thoroughly enjoyed it, and even won a few awards along the way; winning best painted mini at a GW store event (Abaddon) and Best Painted Army at a tournament I took them to. So it’s up for sale, it’s about that

Grimdark World Eaters Re-dux

(And Crowe isn’t happy…) So I decided to pull out some old, unfinished World Eaters from back when we had that awesome Daemonkin Codex. My goal was to start using some of the ‘Grimdark’ techniques I had picked up during my White Scars project. This meant more oils, enamels, and isopropyl/mineral spirits reduction methods on top of some of the

Battle Report: Black Legion Vs. Orks (competitive)

Here’s an attempt of mine to be better with the battle reports. This is going to be a quicker version in hopes of getting more batreps done! First off I was bouncing some ideas off of people on the Bolter and Chainsword forums, and I keep getting some advice to give a real shot to some units that I personally

Black Legion Heldrake and Ultra WIP’s.

My last post included a WIP picture of a Heldrake and a Lord Discordant. I decided that for the Bolter and Chainsword painting challenge that I would try to paint the Heldrake as quickly as I could while retaining some sense of quality to the appearance. I didn’t want it to look anything like my other Heldrake so I went

Hobby Update: Ultramarines and Black Legion WIP’s

Although I probably only play my Ultramarines in the area of once or twice a month, I still like the new kits that came in Shadowspear. I think the one I use most often in lists is certainly the Infiltrators. They feel a bit heavy point wise, however they’re a great push back tool on some aggressive alpha striking armies.

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
