Update shemupdate - Woohoo! Tournament Report!

Yeah - sorry for the lack of updates.  I have been out of town at an event plus finishing up the Wargames Raffle army.  Fun fun fun.  So if you have been reading this - you know I went to the Alamo 40k Gt this past weekend in San Antonio.  To cut to the chase - I got 2nd Overall and went 4-1 and had a could ass kicking by Tau in Game 4.  Fun times!

Here is the list I brought - I would do some changes if I played it again - they will be at the end.  I don't know what to do Versus Tau but going Big will hopefully get you there.  Will see if Eldar are going to be a kick to the teeth with my flavor of Slaanesh pain.

HQ: Keeper of Secrets, Greater Gifts X 2, Lvl 3 Psyker

RD 1 - Versus - Darryl with Drop Pod Space Wolves

His list - 3 Rune Priests, 3 sets of 4 ML + 1 Plasma Cannon Long Fangs, 4 Grey Hunter Packs with Pods - Double Melta X 2, Melta X 1, Flamer X 1

Mission 

Primary - 5 Objectives - Win = 14pts Tie = 7 Loss = 4

Secondary - Control more Table Quarters - Win = 4pts Loss = 0

Tertiary Objectives - First Blood, Line Breaker, Slay the Warlord

Set up - Modified Hammer and Anvil (slightly smaller thing)

I went first, flew forward to do some damage and rolled a 3 on the Warp Storm table.  My super awesome Flying DP with Iron Arm, Warp Speed, and Endurance exploded when he roll like a 14 on the Instability test.  I think I failed Endurance too so yeah - boom there goes first Blood haha.  I still just took it with a grin (it is how you play Daemons) and move on.  Darryl dropped aggressively and he stopped like 10 out of 12 spells when I tried to cast.  Lucky for me one was a Hallucination and I was able to roll a 3 on one Rune Priest unit. That let my Keeper get in, get to killing and just allow me to grind him down.  I ended up having 3 Objectives to 1 and had 2 table quarters to his 1.  I left his Warlord and Grey Hunters group alive in the end.

Warp Storm highlights/lowlights - Rolled 3 two times in a row - one lost me First Blood the other I rolled low.  Yay!

Win for me - 18-5

RD 2 - Versus - Brian with Daemons as well

His list - Herald of Nurgle w/Locus of the Funk X 2, Herald of Tzeentch w/Locus of Conjuration, Bloodthirster with 2 Greater Reward, 20 Plague Bearers, 13 Plague Bearers, 20 Pink Horrors, 7 Beasts of Nurgle, 6 Screamers of Tzeentch, 2 Nurgle Grinders with Phlem

Mission

Primary - 3 Objectives - Win = 13 Tie = 7 Loss = 4

Secondary - Most units in no mans land in the middle

Tertiary - First Blood, Slay the Warlord

Set Up - Vanguard Strike - Middle is No Mans Land

I let Brian go first, I got some good spells and just came forward and slowly picked him apart.  It was a bit of a rough game as it seemed to just south for him.  I was able to move up with Daemon Princes, pick apart the Soul Grinders and I think the Warp Storm did more damage to me.  The Warp Storm was not nice to me this weekend haha.  I ended up killing all his models in the end.

Warp Storm highlights/lowlights - I killed a few of my guys with random rolls as usual.  I think I got one Screamer so it was a wash for me.  

Win for me - 19-4

RD 3 - Versus - Mike with Space Marines

His list - Captain on a bike with Toys, Bike Squad with Plasma Guns X 2 and Fist Sarge, 10 Man Tactical Squad with Plasma Gun/Lascannon, 3 Man MM attack bike squad, Storm Talon, Thunderfire Cannon, Devs with Missile Launchers, Rune Priest, and 10 Grey Hunters with 2 Flamers and a Rhino.

Mission

Primary - Purge the Alien - Win = 18 Tie = 9 Loss = 4

Secondary Objectives - First Blood, Slay the Warlord

Set Up - Dawn of War

Mike is a "local" from Killeen.  Nice fluffy list and a good player all around.  This was not a good match up as it is hard to get KP from me and I can easily get them from him.  The Highlight of this was stealing his Thunderfire cannon 3 times with Puppet Master.  That thing did a lot of damage for me and I wish I could have one too haha.  Still a good player and he did well for the event.

Win for me - 20-5

Warp Storm highlights/lowlights - Nothing to note - it was a pretty lame one.  Grim Book did good for me this game as well as Warp Fire

RD 4 - Versus - Brandon with Tau

His list - Broadsides X 3, 2 Hammerheads, Etheral, Devil Fish X 3 with Fire Warriors with Pulse Carbines and EMP Grenades, 3 12 Man Tau Fire Warrior Squads, Cadre Guy, Aegis Line with Quad Gun, and 3 sets of 4 man Pathfinder units.

Mission

Primary - Big Guns Never Tire - You need to get scoring units in your opponents Deployment Zone - that was the objective. Win = 16 Tie = 8 Loss = 4

Secondary Objectives - Destroy the most Heavy Support Units - 4 pts for the Win

Set up - Modified Hammer and Anvil like above

Brandon is my coworker and buddy.  I talked about this game a bit but I lost two DP's turn one.  The Grim Book did not work for me and there was no point in finishing it.  Brandon ate me a bit and gave me some ideas to try out to work versus Tau.  I don't think it is unbeatable but it is very hard hah.  

Loss for me - 20-4

Warp Storm Highlights/lowlights - nothing as I just played one round.  I ate brunch with Brandon and my wife and had a nice time - so that's a win.

RD 5 - Versus - Chris with Daemons

His list - My Bloodthirster with 2 Greater Gifts, Keeper of Secrets with Exalted Gift, Lvl 2 Caster, and a Greater Gift, 2 DP's of Slaanesh with Wings and Gifts etc with Lvl 3 Casting, 2 sets of 16 Bloodletters, and 2 sets of Daemonettes as well.

Mission

Primary - Purge the Alien - Win = 14 Tie = 7 Loss = 4

Secondary - Pick 4 total Elite, Heavy, and  FA - Kill them get 4 Points max

Tertiary - Slay the Warlord and Line Breaker

Set up  - Dawn of War

This was the game where I just had better Psychic powers.  I did do something dumb and give his Thirster a 3+ FNP (he had a 4+ and I tried to Warp Flame him out).  I played defensive, he came in to punch me, I knocked guys down and was able to control the game from there.  The one walking Iron Armed jerk punched his Thirster and I ended up winning in the end.  

Win for me - 20-7

Warp Storm Highlights/Lowlights - Rolling a 4 during your turn versus Daemons is pretty boss.   That whip becomes nasty hehe.  I really wanted a Lord of Change and the 3rd flying DP.

So yeah in the end I got 2nd Overall a new Dreadknight kit that I plan on Daemoning up and I ended up grabbing the Tau the winner got because he was not happy with his games of kicking butt and not enjoying it. I plan on making Angry Tau for the heck of it with a Farsight bomb nonsense idea.  I don't want to buy too much just looking at trying it out to see if I can get some finger flipping Tau Jerks.  I will talk about it later on.

Here is the new list I would play if I had to redo it all.

HQ: Keeper of Secrets, Greater Gift X 2, Lvl 3 Caster

HQ: Lord of Change, Greater Gift X 2, Lesser Gift, Lvl 3 Caster

Troops: Pink Horrors X 10, Iridescent Horror

Troops: Pink Horrors X 10, Iridescent Horror

Troops: Pink Horrors X 10, Iridescent Horror

Heavy: Daemon Prince, MoS, Greater Gift X 2, Wings, Armor, Lvl 3 Caster

Heavy: Daemon Prince, MoS, Greater Gift X 2, Wings, Armor, Lvl 3 Caster

Heavy: Daemon Prince, MoS, Greater Gift X 2, Wings, Armor, Lvl 3 Caster

This is what I plan on making and tweaking the Daemon Princes I have etc.  For those that have seen my cards - shoot me an email if you want them.  I plan on making Nid ones as well in the next few days for those that wanted them.

Woohoo - with that done - the Paint list - some models and well - yeah!

Paint List

Me

7 Plague Marines for Wargames Con Army - Done!

5 Havocs with Autocannons - Just built tonight - paint maybe tomorrow?

1 Lord of Change Test Design - Dreadknight is gonna get crazy!

1 Test Angry Tau - This will be fun

Plastic Dudesmen - Script done, Drawing Done - Need to color

Logo for Frontline Gaming thing - Drawn - need to tweak to figure out

Luis

2 Terminators - Primed

Some number of Vets

Drop Pod - Yup!

Jens

Build the Hammerhead/Skyray etc - it is sitting there looking at me

I think I need to email some people who were talking about commissions.  Will see if it gets filled up this month.  It has been a bit rough/slow etc so hopefully it will pick up a bit.  Wargames Con will see me try to sell off my Grey Knights - when I get a chance to count it all out will see if someone wants it.  It is a ton of Purifiers, Strikes, Dreads, and Rhinos etc.  Fun times indeed - and as usual I will be drawing etc there.

Models to check out as well.

My Slaanesh Herald - Combi Dark Eldar plus Slaanesh bits.

Converted Heldrake - much easier to fly with

Plague Marines - they got infected by some kind of parasite growth.

Friday and I got the Day off!

Which means I will be painting models.  I need to get in gear on the Wargames Army - What I have done is below.  Plus I have to mentally prepare for the Alamo.  Ok never mind I will just play games hahaha.  The Tau seem frustrating to play against.  They go completely against what I find enjoyable and if they start to infiltrate a lot of the upper tables it will be an annoying set of games.  They just shoot - which isn't very exciting hah.  But oh well - if that is what people want to play then I will just look forward to seeing them in tournaments and most likely not for funsy's.

I still think Crons are better overall as they cover more of the stuff you need to win.  Still - blargh.  I won't be playing them.  Their rules and cost don't entice me.  But for those wanting more Xenos - this is your year!  I am just waiting on Orks for right now haha.

What I sent to the Alamo people for my list.

HQ: Keeper of Secrets, Greater Gifts X 2, Lvl 3 Psyker
HQ: Herald of Tzeentch, Exalted Gift, Lvl 3 Caster, Locus of Conjuration
HQ: Herald of Tzeentch, Exalted Gift, Lvl 3 Caster
Troops: Plague Bearers X 10
Troops: Plague Bearers X 10
Troops: Pink Horrors X 20, Iridescent Horror
Heavy: Daemon Prince, MoS, Armor, Wings, Greater Gift X 2, Lvl 3 Psyker
Heavy: Daemon Prince, MoS, Armor, Wings, Greater Gift X 2, Lvl 3 Psyker
Heavy: Daemon Prince, MoS, Armor, Greater Gift X 2, Lvl 3 Psyker

Pretty basic and simple.  It might work.  Obviously I have the Book trick and the Portal.  Will see if it ends up being ok.  Blargh indeed!

I don't think the Horror blob will work - as I could easily dump them and get something else.  It is really just thoughts and I think the dog bomb might work with some tricks involved.  Will see.

This is the list that I think I should play - if you wanted just a straight forward Daemon Bomb Smash MC 4000!

HQ: Keeper of Secrets, Greater Gift, Exalted Gift, Lvl 3 Psyker
HQ: Lord of Change, Greater Gift X 2, Lesser Gift, Lvl 3 Psyker
Troops: Pink Horrors X 10, Iridescent Horror
Troops: Pink Horrors X 10, Iridescent Horror
Troops: Pink Horrors X 10, Iridescent Horror
Heavy: Daemon Prince, MoS, Armor, Wings, Greater Gift X 2, Lvl 3 Psyker
Heavy: Daemon Prince, MoS, Armor, Wings, Greater Gift X 2, Lvl 3 Psyker
Heavy: Daemon Prince, MoS, Armor, Wings, Greater Gift X 2, Lvl 3 Psyker

Basic and simple.  Fun stuff indeed.

Played a game with my Alamo list.  It did alright - I got owned the first few turns and was able to bring it back when my Daemon opponent didn't get an Iron Arm off and I had one on a flying MoS prince who enfeebled the jerk once.  Instant death whips are pretty good I hear?

You need the level 3's to help get Iron Arm when you need it - and Hallucination as well.  It just gives you more chances.  Fun stuff indeed.

The Wargames Con painted army is coming along - you should see the Dragon in a few days.  Woohoo!  It is a conversion and it should be a nice center piece for the raffle army.

With that - let's look at some models.

More Dark Angels!

30 Jerks!  Set up in small batches of 10 to allow for the winner to have 3 troop choices if they want.

Converted Chaos Lord - the Plague Marines will have the similar evil star fish gut explosion like this guy.

His sword arm was bunk - so I added this.  If you are playing Sorcerer's you should be using Force Staves.  Much better choice then a sword.

Got bored and drew this and colored it after doing Plastic Dudesmen last week.  Bubba wants his bottle!

Alright - with that in mind the paint list at the end as well.

Me

Plastic Dudesmen - Got a script - time to draw

Some Art commissions as well - banners etc.

Wargames Con - Dragon - need to build

7 Plague Marines - Need to build

Figure out my Lord of Change

Jens

Hammerhead - Need to build

Luis

2 More Termies - Primed!

1 Drop Pod - Need to build and finish

more termies?

That is it for now - I am sure there will be others as usual.

Woohoo - More stuff done!

I tweaked my army for Alamo so I didn't need to paint more stuff.  Hooray!  I even built the Chaos Lord for the Wargames Con army tonight too!  Hooray!  Blargh!!!

Alright - paint list first cuz with the wife out of town for a few days I have time to throw into painting.  I had to go to work for 10 hrs today to cover someone's shift so I painted too - thus the glut of stuff at the bottom.

Paint list
Me
Wargames Con - Chaos Lord - Built
Wargames Con - Sorcerer Lord - Not built!!
Plastic Dudesmen - Need a script

Luis
Belial - Done!
Nephilim - Done!
2 DK knights - Primed
4 DW - Primed
Maybe some vets? - Need to build

Jens
12 Firewarriors - Done!
2 Drones - Done!
Hammerhead - In a box!

Chris
3 Cryx thingies - Primed!

I am sure there will be more - this is just for now.

I am taking a tweaked list from Adepticon for the Alamo - this is what I sent it so no changing!

HQ: Keeper of Secrets, Lvl 3 Psyker, Greater Gifts X 2
HQ: Herald of Tzeentch, Lvl 3 Psyker, Exalted Gift, Locus of Conjuration
HQ: Herald of Tzeentch, Lvl 3 Psyker, Exalted Gift
Troops: Plague Bearers X 10
Troops: Plague Bearers X 10
Troops: Pink Horrors X 20, Iridescent Horror
Heavy: Daemon Prince, MoS, Wings, Armor, Lvl 3 Caster, Greater Gifts X 2
Heavy: Daemon Prince, MoS, Wings, Armor, Lvl 3 Caster, Greater Gifts X 2
Heavy: Daemon Prince, MoS, Armor, Lvl 3 Caster, Greater Gifts X 2

It is simple and basic.  I probably need a FA option but this will work for now.  I couldn't get Fiends to fit in right so will just see how this goes.  This will be simple, small and easy to play with.  I think it might work out to run a Lord of Change in the HQ secondary slot - but I didn't want to make one.  I am still working on the design in my head to see if I can get it to fit.  Too much!

Tau seem alright so far.  Very shooty but if you play smart and gut certain bits of the army you can win.  They seem high on the VP issues with lots of units to give up points.  I don't plan on building one but I do enjoy painting them.  Lucky for me a client has me doing some right now haha.

Ok some models to look at.

Cryx?

New Herald of Tzeentch - Red Armor to imply a change from Thousand Sons.

The question from the last comment - you can see his feet as he is running to gut you.

More DAKKA!

Zoom zoom with some plasma!

Locking on target with my expensive laser beams.

I make armored friends scoring!

Speed is building - painting is beginning again.

My list from last week is almost the same as this week.  I had to work extra to cover some people's vacations so I was kind of down and out paint wise.  This week should be better and I can hopefully throw 2-3 hours per night throwing some paint on models.  Plus I have two drawing things to do as well so I should have a full week.  Woohoo.  Let's break that list out.

Me
Plastic Dudesmen - Joke written - need to draw it out
Design due by Wednesday - going to start it tomorrow - woohoo
Another Logo/Mascot/Etc - doodled out one need to rework another to see which one is better
Another Logo - need to start working on it for Pat from 11th company - woohoo
Herald of Tzeentch 2 - Built him today - paint him later on - he will be an ex Thousand Son hah

Luis P
3 Black Knights - Built and Primed
1 Nephlim Fighter - need to build
1 Drop pod - need to finish building it

Chris
Cryx stuff - 2 things primed - want to do 2 - 3 others.

Jens
12 Tau Fire Warriors - Did them today!  Yay!
12 more Tau Fire Warriors? - maybe
2 more drones as well - maybe

Wargames  Con
Start building one part of it.  I swear!

Yeah my week is filled up.  I still want to figure out that stupid lord of Change.  Lots of things to goof around with.  I think I will play a game this  Thursday.  

List ideas - I want to bring as many Lvl 3 Casters as I can.  I doubt it will work - but hey... haha.

HQ: Keeper of Secrets, Greater Gift X 2, Lvl 3 Caster
HQ: Herald of Tzeentch, Lvl 3, Exalted Gift, Locus of Conjuration
HQ: Herald of Tzeentch, Lvl 3
HQ: Herald of Nurgle, Locus of Fecundity, Lesser  Gift

Heavy: DP, Wings, Armor, MoS, Lvl 3 Caster, Greater Gifts X 2
Heavy: DP, Wings, Armor, MoS, Lvl 3 Caster, Greater Gifts X 2

We have a 1500 point event as well coming up - should I just drop one of the DP's and go with some nonsense?  MC Smash!

I want my games to be quick dammit!

HQ: Keeper of Secrets, Greater Gift X 2, Lvl 3 Caster
HQ: Bloodthirster, Greater Gift X 1, Exalted Gift
Troops: Plague Bearers X 10

Troops: Pink Horrors X 10

Heavy: DP, Wings, Armor, MoS, Lvl 3 Caster, Greater Gifts X 2
Heavy: DP, Wings, Armor, MoS, Lvl 3 Caster, Greater Gifts X 2

1500 points - and it might work ok haha.  Who knows.  Blargh


Some models - and art will come later on this week.

Pathfinder minis!

His other leg is a bloodletter so it looks like he is running at you.  You want more pics?

Tau plus Cadre!  Yay!

DAKKA - the weapon is magnetized.

Goatboy - Survived the 11+ games of Adepitcon

Lord - that is a ton of games.  I am sure you read my breakdown on BOLS.  I got close to the mountain top but didn't get a chance to crush more Necron dreams.  Oh well - I did learn a lot of things on how to deal with the Cron menance haha.  I plan on breaking down some Daemon stuff on Monday before I fully embrace some reading on the Tau book.  Too many thoughts on the gribblies in my head to not use in an article somewhere.  Too many hah.

Will start the day off with the Paint list - I got back into things last night with a small local commission and plan on burning through stuff during the weekend.  Will see how much I get done.

Me
Plastic Dudesmen - Drawn - I like the punchline a lot - it is a Wyatt and me collab woohoo!
Herald of Khorne Take over CSM - Started - some layers done - need to work on the NNM on the Armor more
Mentally build out Lord of Change - I want to do some kind of mechanical monster to help match my armies more but will see - it is in the planning stages.
Start the ideas for a set of Fiends - I think they will end up being very important in the next few months of games as they stop some of the spell nonsense you will thrown around the playing field - Tau don't like spells.  I want to use Warhammer Big Ghouls as the base and add mechanical stuff.

Wargames Con
Start the first unit for the CSM army I plan on doing for the Raffle.  Woohoo - Prob a marine unit.
Plan the next few units - there should be a lot of conversions to really amp up a sweet looking army

Luis
3 more Black Knights - Plan on building them tonight
1 Attack Bike - Primed
1 Nephilim Fight - need to build - they are fun as hell to paint

Jens
Start building the Tau upgrade for him - I got a box of fire warriors and cadre guy - more will be coming

Brad
2 Pathfinder figures - Got them done last night like a boss! 

Pics will be coming of stuff as I do them.  I want to update more and my new schedule should give me more comp time at home for pics etc.  I need to upgrade my photo taking stuff at some point - but the bank funds are very stressed right now with my new glasses, wife teeth, wife heart checkup (brother had issues wanted to be sure before kid trying stuff), house stuff, and well Adepticon.  I didn't spend much at all there - due to playing the entire time which also meant I did not cover my costs with bag art etc.  If I get a chance to go back next year I will just be playing Team and let Nick and John smash face in the championship as I help judge.

Like I said earlier I got one more Daemon article for BOLS then it is onto other things.  It makes me sad as I really like the book and don't plan on playing Tau except for Team events or other things where someone else brings the army.  I had fun with all my CSM stuff at Adepticon and I got decent paint scores for my heavily converted army.  The Dragon got a lot of looks as well.  It makes me feel good that I didn't see another copy of it throughout the event. 

It was nuts that we saw so many Necrons in the top 16.  In some ways it has more action in it then GK did the year before.  Most GK lists were very similiar but with the ally system and Necrons ability to take some of the newer books meant the army having a lot more play many of the other choices.  I don't really like the GK/Cron combo too much as I feel the GK part - while good - is too easy to circumvent.  Oh well - I didn't win so what do I know right haha?

The best thing about these events is seeing some of my buddies around the country.  It is one of the few times I get to see some of the Eastern folks and it is great just shooting the shit with them.  I am glad I didn't get any nonsense pictures taken haha. 

Here is my current list of Events

May 18th-19th - Alamo 40k GT in San Antonio, TX.  I have won it and will see if I get to it again.  I will be with Daemons once again.
June 7th-9th - Wargames Con in Austin, TX.  The big one I am a part of.  Look for my Raffle army, art, and other nonsense at the show.
June 27th-30th - Spikey Bits Birthday Party event.  I will be up in Virginia shooting the shit, drawing on bags, and just doing what I normally do - throw dice.  I will probably have my Daemons as well.

From there I am planning on being at the ATC and probably another event.  If the plane tickets for the Boyz runs low I might head up to that area and freeze my butt off.  Depending on time frames I might head to the Nova too as I haven't had a chance to play in Brandt's show.  When Reese and them get Vegas going I will be out there for sure.  The wife likes Vegas so that is a dual trip so it makes it perfectly good hah.

Lists right now are all starting like this.

Keeper of Secrets, Greater Gifts X 2, Lvl 3
Daemon Prince, Wings, Armor, Greater Gifts X 2, Lvl 2, MoS
Daemon Prince, Wings, Armor, Greater Gifts X 2, Lvl 2, MoS
Daemon Prince, Greater Gifts X 2, Lvl 3, MoS

Comes out to 1140 points - which is a bit nuts - but this type of Army needs this to overpower the opponent in the mind bullet stage.

From there I think I will end up using some Heralds this time around.  It is tempting to go all flyers - but the one walker guy helps keep the Keeper Safe as they skip around causing problems.

Herald of Tzeentch, Locus of Conjuration, Lvl 3
Herald of Nurgle, Locus of Fecundity, Exalted Gift
Plague Bearers X 20
Pink Horrors X 18, Iridescent Horror
Fiends of Slaanesh X 4

The Fiends are there to allow me some psychic protection.  Like I said - expect these mind bomb lists to pop up.  Leadership 9 is the key and dropping it to below 7 will be very important to win those battles.  Plus if Eldar become the shit again - knocking them down a few pegs will be good.

The exalted gift on the Plague Bearer gives me the Portal or the Griminore if needed.  The Iridescent Horror is there to allow your Horror unit to shoot 4d6 Percision strike Str 6 shots.  Very very important to pop out other leaders and options in the Daemon on Daemon match up. 

Blargh... it will be what it will be.

Goatboy's Monday - Woohoo

I got all my stuff painted for Adepticon.  Woohoo.  I did lose my initial Portal Glyph at my local store.  GRRRR... I had to make another one that looks ok - just makes me mad.  But will see - the Portal is pretty strong.  I think the Grimoire is strong as hell too.  It makes me think that Screamers might still be ok with some Grimoire fun.  I hear a rerollable 2+ might be too good.  Interesting.

If you get stuck in combat so what.  2+ reroll is strong as hell.  Thinking thinking and more thinking hahaha.

No paint list as this week is about me finishing a Plastic Dudesmen and then getting ready to fly out on Wednesday.  I will have my art stuff too so if you want something drawn I am around.  Get ahold of me and we can get something cool :).

So let's do some list building - you will see my Daemon list for Adepticon on Bols tomorrow heh.

Khorne Dogs with Tzeentch Tricks.

Herald of Khorne, Juggernaut, Greater Gift, Lesser Gift, Fury Locus
Karanak
Herald of Tzeentch, Exalted Gift, Lvl 3
Herald of Tzeentch, Exalted Gift, Lvl 3
Pink Horrors X 16, Instrument
Pink Horrors X 16, Instrument
Flesh Hounds of Khorne X 15
Flesh Hounds of Khorne X 15
Soul Grinder, Phlem, MoN
Soul Grinder, Phlem, MoN
Soul Grinder, Phlem, MoN

You are trying to push for the 4+ inv save and then get the Grimoire to work right and get a 2+.  I do wonder if using screamers to get a 2+ reroll might be good.  The ability to do one Str 5 AP 2 attack might be ok as you can easily survive versus anything.  Hrm... it is worth a thought and I think I can get some of those screamers for cheap hahaha.

Still... more thought.  It depends on what I want to do for Alamo.  Blargh...

Alright - let's look at some models eh?

I needed 10 more letters - lucky I had some laying around

Yeah - it is a bile drone on top of some decimator legs... I be crazy!

BZZZZZZZ!!!!

Eat my plasma!

This finishes the lot!

Herald of Tzeentch taking over a poor Chaos Space Marine.

Ok look for reports from Adepticon and more thoughts on Demons.

Goatboy - Late Monday

I was sick all last week and my paint day was messed up by a bad outage at work.  It made it hard to get as much done as I wanted too.  I do have some models done - and more to do before Adepticon.  I am waiting on some Plague Drones to finish it off and get ready.  Hell here is the list that seems to look interesting to me - plus it will be fast and fun to play.

HQ: Bloodthirster, Exalted Gift, Greater Gift
HQ: Keeper of Secrets, Greater Gift X 2, Lvl 3 Psyker
Troops: Plague Bearers X 10
Troops: Plague Bearers X 10
FA: Plague Drones X 5, Plague Bringer, Greater Gift
Heavy: Daemon Prince, MoS, Armor, Lvl 2 Psyker, Greater Gift X 2
Heavy: Daemon Prince, MoS, Armor, Wings, Lvl 2 Psyker, Greater Gift X 2
Heavy: Daemon Prince, MoS, Armor, Wings, Lvl 2 Psyker, Greater Gift X 2

That looks like what I wrote up - the Exalted gift on the Thirster is to get the Portalglpyh which you will see down below.  I figured throwing out Pink Horror squads will mean I got some small little jerks that either get the Beam or 2d6 shots that are a pain in the butt.  Plus I can easily fly with this.  Woohoo!  And I only need paint Plague Drones!  Woohoo - and shit I need to get my Adepticon Team army done.  Lord.

I swear this Adepticon feels a bit off due to my buddy Nick just not really into 40k.  It doesn't help and it just makes my nonsense just seem mean.  Oh well - I will have to just move on - see if I survive and then maybe get lucky and have a nice Friday to draw on bags haha.

Here is a paint list as well

Me
Plastic Dudesmen - Need to get something done - probably work on another one too as I am out for Adepticon
Daemon Prince - Done!
15 Seekers - Maybe?? I have 5 Primed.

Luis
Black Knights X 3 - Primed
Nephillim Fighter - Done!
5 Scouts - Done!
5 more Ultramarine guys - 4 primed - waiting on shoulder pads for the last

Chris
More Cryx stuff if I have time

I will probably get some Tau soon too.  Fun times!

If I don't get the Drones in time I will then play this other list that is a bit meaner but still fun.  Will work out the Points but it will have that converted Dragon.  Blargh - I do wonder if a Demon/Typhus bomb might be the best - but I already played Typhus in an event and I am known to constantly change my army.  F practice I just roll 6's!

Some models to check out to finish this off too.

The Portal!  Greenstuff, Nid claws, and a plastic airsoft pellet I cut a groove out of.  It is pulling out of the ground to spit out some Horror

Dakkadakka!

This Dread had some wonky damage on the back - so I made it one of my DP's - he is armored for sure and the way I have it set up each are named with and idea of how they are etc - easy to play with.

Scouts???
