Goatboy- Sunday - Survived an Apoc game - yay!

So we played a big Apoc game this Saturday. I played a goofy Grey Knights list and we got lucky versus a crap ton of Ork Super Heavies. My Dreadknight killed an ork Warboss thingie, Dreadnought and finally a Stompa with the power of the foot fist way. Woohoo!

So yeah - good times indeed. Beyond that I am up to my normal painting nonsense.

This week - here are the plans

Me
Cryx Boxed seet - I got one guy done need to do the others
1 Inquisitor in Termie armor build out.
10 Chaos Termies to at least get and build etc.
5 more Evil Purifers - Built and primed

Michael N.
Kommando Batch 1 - 7 Metal Dudesmen - DONE!
Snikrot - DONE!
Kommando Batch 2 - 5+ more guys - need to build

Scott M
Get those flyers on bases so I can paint them up.

Brandon S.
Stompa - Finished it this weekend! Woohoo!

Jens
Build some Herald thingies - the design will be awesome.

Artwise
Finish a Plastic Dudesmen much to the internets lament
Do a business card - did the initial design
Do a big flyer - got some ideas
Draw up a few character designs - Did one today - more to come

So a busy week I can only hope I get most of it done. In fact I should build more guys tonight haha.

So I bought my plane ticket for Rochester, NY and Da Boyz tournament. Currently I am thinking of this list. I lose 5 points cuz I need two leaders for the table design.

HQ: GKM, Psychotroke Grenades, Rad Grenades, Psycannon
HQ: Inquisitor Malleius, Psyker, Hammerhand, Psycannon, Terminator Armor, Force Sword
Troops: GKT X 10, Psycannon X 2, Bro Banner, Halberds X 4, Daemon Hammer X 2, Force Swords X 3
Troops: GKT X 10, Psycannon X 2, Bro Banner, Halberds X 4, Daemon Hammer X 2, Force Swords X 3
Troops: GKSS X 10, Psycannon X 2, Psybolt
FA: Inceptors X 10, Psycannon X 2, Psybolt

That is 75 pts on the rubric - no vehicles and full of nonsense.

Other thoughts are the following.

HQ: GKM, Psychotroke Grenades, Rad Grenades, Blind Grenades, MC both weapons
Elites: Purifiers X 10, Psycannon X 2, Daemon Hammer X 1, Halberds X 5, Razorback, Psybolt
Troops: GKSS X 10, Psycannon X 2, Daemon Hammer X 1, Psybolt, Razorback, Psybolt
Troops: GKT X 10, Psycannon X 2, Bro Banner, Halberds X 4, Daemon Hammer X 2, Force Swords X 3, Psybolt
FA: Inceptors X 10, Psycannon X 2, Daemon Hammer X 1, Psybolt
Heavy: Dreadnought, TWL Autocannon X 2, Psybolt

This hits at 80 pts too. Oh yeah the Rubric is here!

And finally another one that is nutty too.

HQ: GKM, Psychotroke Grenades, Psycannon
Elites: Paladins X 10, Psycannon X 4, Weird Free Weapon Load out
Troops: GKT X 10, Psycannon X 2, Bro Banner, Halberds X 4, Daemon Hammer X 2, Force Swords X 3
Troops: GKSS X 10, Psycannon X 2
FA: Inceptors X 10, Psycannon X 2, Daemon Hammer X 1

Yeah lots of weird options. Not sure - I just know I will probably have to paint up 10 evil Chaos Terminators damnit. Which means I need to get 10 of them - unless I play the middle list.

That one hits at 80 pts too.

So yeah - don't know what to do really. It just means I need to paint stuff. 20 Terminators does sound fun.

Models!






So yeah - lord more things to paint and do. Blargh!!

And finally stuff for sale still.

5 Hive Guard - $15.00 each
2 Boxes of Termagaunts - $17.00 each

So yeah - all in all a good week so far. Woohoo! I will probably do some more stuff later on this week as I try to chill out and rest a bit. Been running a bit too much lately and need my mind and body to chill out. Most likely Kill a bunch Space Marines too haha.

I offered some stuff up for sale. I got some more if people are interested.

Reaver Jet Bikes - 3 of them - they are already clipped off and in a bag but not painted/primed - $20.00 for the lot

2 Boxes of Termaguants - $17.00 each

So if you are interested shoot me an email to goatboybols@gmail.com - we can cut a deal.

Lord I keep opening up Army Builder. I am trying to figure out a list for Da Boyz as well as Feast. I am tempted to just scrap a lot and go Space Goats damnit (or Grammar Wolves hah). Currently here is my dumb thought Boyz list.

HQ: GKM, Psycannon, Rad, Psychotroke Grenades
Elites: Paladins X 5, Apocathery, Psycannon X 2, Daemon Hammer X 1, Halberd X 2
Troops: GKT X 10, Psybolt, Bro Banner, Psycannon X 2, Daemon Hammer X 2, Halberd X 3
Troops: GKSS X 10, Psycannon X 2, Psybolt, Daemon Hammer X 1, Rhino
FA: Inceptors X 10, Psycannon X 2, Psybolt, Daemon Hammer X 1
Heavy: Dreadnought, TWL Autocannon X 2, Psybolt

That hits at 80pts on the nose. It is ballsy and that looks like fun to me. Plus it says FU to Dedicated Transports - which I won't see nearly as much as I would at other events.

Here is a Wolves list I thought about. Or Grammar Wolves - not sure what I would want to play. It hits at 70 points

HQ: Wolf Priest, Bike, Runic Armor, Meltabombs
HQ: Wolf Priest, Saga of the Hunter, Runic Armor, Plasma Pistol
Elites: WG X 10
Wolf Guard 1 - Combi-Melta, Powerfist - X 3
Wolf Guard 2 - Combi-Plasma, Powerfist - X 1
Wolf Guard 3 - Normal - X 3
Wolf Guard 4 - Terminator Armor, CML - X 2
Wolf Guard 5 - Bike, Storm Shield, Powerfist X 1
Troops: Grey Hunters X 9, MoW, Power Weapon, Wolf Standard, Meltagun, Rhino
Troops: Grey Hunters X 9, MoW, Power Weapon, Wolf Standard, Meltagun, Rhino
Troops: Grey Hunters X 9, MoW, Power Weapon, Wolf Standard, Plasma Gun, Plasma Pistol, Rhino
FA: Swiftclaw Bikers X 10, Power Weapon, Meltagun, Attack Bike, Multi-Melta
Heavy: Long Fangs X 6, ML X 5

1850 on the nose - 70 points according to the Rubric. It really feels Goatboy like to me. It is aggressive and that is what I like. Plus 10 Swiftclaw bikers just sound fun.

Of course I got other ideas too - will see if I can come up with something interesting for Feast. But for right now Da Boyz is on my mind hah.

Things I painted the last time we talked.

Goatboy - it isn't Sunday - it is Saturday

So Ard Boyz came and went. Two bad match ups and bad missions later and I got beat by decent players. It is life - and makes me rethink some army lists and build designs. But hey - when you over think your army list you just get boned. And I think I need new dice for this army too haha. But oh well - good times.

I went to Dallas to play and ran into Brent from Strictly Average. Man I want that guy to move to Austin so we can have some battle reports. Either way it was worth it going to Dallas and seeing some buds as well as letting my wife hang out with old friends. Good times.

First game I played MSU Space Wolves based off of Andy's list. Good list - and with the VP mission I couldn't do much to catch up the points as my army would fail some saves. I did well with the Rogue Psykers but it just wasn't enough. The second game was verus 50 GK termies and two Inq with rad and Psychotroke. That one was bad as I failed a crap ton of saves. I fought the good fight and did kill a bunch of guys so that is good too haha. It is one of those armies that work versus certain things and then others they just don't do as well. Good guy too.

But enough of that - Ard Boyz is well - Ard Boyz.

Currently I got Feast of Blades and Da Boyz GT to do in the coming months. One is heavily comped the other is well not. I am doing one to try and get into the ETC - the other is cuz it was a cheap flight and Chandler is a good dude. So good times indeed. Currently I am looking at a Coteaz list mixed with Termies. It is a good guys versus bad guys type of board design that I hope looks good and plays decent.

Current Boyz thoughts - Rubric gives me a 70. Click here to see it.

HQ: Coteaz
HQ: Xenos Inq, Plasma Siphon, Rad Grenades. Psychotroke Grenades, Servo Skulls X 2
Elites: Vindicare Assassin
Elites: Venerable Dreadnought. TWL autocannon X 2, Psybolt
Troops: GKT X 10, Psycannon X 2, Brotherhood Banner, Halberd X 7, Daemon Hammer X 2, Psybolt
Troops: Henchmen - Rogue Psyker X 8, Warrior Acolyte X 2, Meltagun X 2, Rhino
Troops: Henchmen - Rogue Psyker X 8, Warrior Acolyte, Rhino
Troops: Henchmen - Warrior Acolyte X 3, Meltagun X 3, Razorback, Psybolt, Assault Cannon
FA: Inceptors X 10, Psycannon X 2, Daemon Hammer X 1, Psybolt
Heavy: Dreadnought, TWL Autocannon X 2, Psybolt

1850 on the nose. Might be good - might be bad but it gets a 70. Which is awesome. But is it good? Who the hell knows. Need to make sure to get some new dice.

Feast of the other hand is a no comp event. I don't know if I want to play Grey Knights or Wolves. Who the hell knows. Might do a Crowe build for that one. Lord I just don't know haha. I got two months.

Alright that is it.

Goatboy's Monday Post

Should have been Sunday - but I painted this one dude and I wanted to show him off. Lord I am feeling out of it. The fires in Texas have made for a rather evil Allergy season for me. Boogers are pouring out of my nose like crazy. It sucks. But I am still painting away like a mad man!

Anyone watch True Blood? It was a nutty ending. Other then that Dr. Who is kicking some ass too. I can't wait for some of my other shows coming soon too. How I Met Your Mother, Big Bang Theory, Cartoons, etc. I watch a lot of TV sometimes, but I dvr that shiznit to keep it real. Should we do a BOLS reality show with model building? Hrmm...

Alright - Paint week then Ard Boyz thoughts.

Me
10 Evil Inceptors - Got all the pieces built out - need to put them together and paint em up maybe for Ard Boyz
1 CSM Nurgle Champion from Fantasy into 40k - Done!
1 Test Evil Purifier - Done!
Khador Battleforce Box - In pieces
Test Rhino - Mental Phase
Plastic Dudesmen - Script in need to work it through

Michael N.
10 Ork Boyz - Done!
1 Ork Trukk - In pieces

Randy M
3 Infinity Figures - In pieces

Luis P
Pull out first batch of Mordhiem Figures to Do - In Pieces

BOLS
5 Khador Chainsaw dudes - Done!

I might do some more but will see as I will be heading out to Dallas to play at Ard Boyz this year with some Grey Knights. I played some test games Vs. Darkwynn and won both missions. My army is just designed to work the missions well enough and it is harder for Nick. Plus Black Templar are not the best match up against Grey Knights. Ini 6 and str 5+ hurts. Plus the Psycannon should have stayed Str 6 instead of Str 7.

I tested out some Rogue Psykers and I think they work out pretty well. I am going to play two squads. This whole thing is why I have been creating an Evil Rogue Inquisitor army. I can't stop painting something Chaosy and when I started doing a much higher level of painting I had to go to Chaos for sure. After Ard Boyz it is back to cutting down playing mean lists and probably bringing out my old Fabius Bile army to have fun with.

For those interested - Current Fabius Bile list.

HQ: Fabius Bile
HQ: Kharn
Elites: Possessed X 5, Mark of Tzeentch, Rhino
Troops: CSM X 10, Meltagun X 2, Mark of Nurgle, Powerfist, Rhino, Bile Upgrade
Troops: CSM X 10, Flamer X 2, Mark of Slaanesh, Power Weapon, Rhino, Bile Upgrade
Troops: CSM X 10, Meltagun X 2, Mark of Khorne, Powerfist, Rhino, Bile Upgrade
Heavy: Obliterators X 3
Heavy: Havoks X 5, Autocannons X 5, Icon of Chaos Glory
Heavy: Havoks X 5, Autocannons X 5, Icon of Chaos Glory

I might need to fit another troop choice in - drop Kharn and the possessed but this looks alright at 2000 points.

I broke my Full of Monkey site last week but got it fixed up and tweaked it. It is finally just a central site for all my stuff which is probably for the best. So change your links to http://www.fullofmonkey.com - it will just be the central hub for anything I do. Art, Minis, etc.

Alright enough of this look at these minis!










Look for more models this week - I got some cool ideas for my Evil Inceptors. Hopefully I will have the full - Good VS. Evil army board done up soonish too for next month. I plan on hitting Da Boyz this year so look for some thoughts on that comp filled system. Yeah games within games for the goatboy.

Welp it is a Sunday

Watched True Blood and Dr. Who. Damn fine episodes. Been kinda meh on True Blood but I think the Season Finale will amp it up pretty good me thinks. I can't wait for Boardwalk Empire. Yeah you can tell I get free cable cuz I love me those cable tv shows haha. Dexter is coming soon too and that shit is awesome. But enough of that - my paint list. I am working tomorrow and I finished a ton of stuff today.

Myself
Rogue Psyker Squad # 2 - DONE today!
Chaos Lord/Thousand Son Lord/Evil Psyker Lord - Built and Magnetized!
5 Rat Assassins - Built and Primed

Jens
3 CSM Bikerz - Built
3 CSM Asp Champs - Built
4 Noise Marines - Built
4 CSM Guys - Built

Michael N
10 Ork Boyz - Done!
1 Zapp Gun Guy - Done!
1 Trukk - On Sprue

Randy M
3 Infinity Bikerz - Need to be built
5 Infinity Guys - Need to be built

Plastic Dudesmen - Need to do one - maybe another.

That is my plan for the week. I should get all the CSM done tomorrow - that is my plan as the client needs it fast. Woohoo. Lots to do.

Beyond that I need to call the Dallas store I plan on playing in. Hopefully I can get in there and not go to San Antonio. That is my plan to try and win a new army haha. I have 2 in pieces army - DE and Nids. I need to finish them at some point.

I wanted to try and test this one GK list but the player I threw down against quit after my initial assault. He just wanted to get the game of 40k desire out of his system and I brought the list to do it. He had Death Wing and I hate playing against that army. It is either no fun for you or no fun for me. All based on rolling that 3+ inv save.

The list I wanted to test.

GKM, Psycannon, Rad, Psychotroke, 3 Servo Skulls
Coteaz
Ven Dread, TWL Autocannon X 2, Psybolt
Ven Dread, TWL Autocannon X 2, Psybolt
GKT X 10, Thawn, Psycannon X 2, Daemon Hammer X 2, Halberds X 6, Bro Banner
Henchmen - Rogue Psyker X 8, Warrior Acolyte X 2, Meltagun X 2, Rhino
Henchmen - Rogue Psyker X 8, Warrior Acolyte X 2, Plasmagun X 2, Rhino
Henchmen - Rogue Psyker X 8, Mystic, Rhino
Dreadknight, Heavy Incinerator
Dreadknight, Heavy Incinerator

2000 pts or so. Could be good. I think it has some interesting interactions and lots of bits and pieces I normally like. I might run something similar for Ard Boyz with 10 Inceptors and another Ven Dread maybe. Who the hell knows haha. I think that is where my list building is going right now. I might just have two Rogue Psykers as I think I don't need the 3rd. I run into Eldar and I lose it.

I want to paint up some Goat Riders with those new Ogres. I think they will look awesome. Anyone see how the new Ogre book is? Is it actually decent? I hope to get some games in on Thursday. I played local Minus67 with his Venom spam army and I played some GK bullshit to help him test it out. I shot a lot and my dice rolling was hot. I would get one penetrate through and I would roll a 6 or 5 every time.

Not sure what is next for my brain - too much to think about haha.

Models!

Woohoo! Thursday Post as I am at Work!

Rarraagghh!!! It is Thursday and I am at work super early. I am changing up my shift in a few weeks and I wanted to test it out to see if I could wake up and check out the traffic etc. So far so good so hopefully by October I will be in my new shift and my wife gets to see me more often haha. So yeah - enough of that onto some Warhamms.

Lord I am excited about Ogres. I will buy the book to at least see if I want to dip my hoof into the gaming Fantasy waters. I have a WOC army but I really didn't want to play the new edition. The idea of big monsters running around just sounds awesome to me so I might just jump in and paint up a crap ton of Moobies.

Speaking of painting - here is the weekly list. I should have lots of time on Friday and this weekend to get stuff done. Hopefully.

Me
Rogue Psyker Squad 1 - Built and Primed
Rogue Psyker Squad 2 - In Pieces

Mike N
Zap Gun - Built
10 Boyz w/Nob - Pieces
Trukk - Pieces

Randy M
6 Man Infinity Squad - Done!
1 Biker Girl - In Pieces

Jens
3 Bikerz - Need to put on a base and prime
Some CSM - Need to base and prime

That is it for now - most likely more will get added on as I work late on Friday. Wife will be out of town with a friend that just lost her mother. I will be up there later on Saturday for the memorial so most likely I will be looking to work on things that keep my brain occupied.

Lately I have been working on Grey Knights lists over and over. Ard Boyz is coming and it looks like I will be trying to play in Dallas. Will see I need to call them today to set it up etc, if not there then San Antonio. The missions look pretty meh so most likely I will continue with a massed Troop/GKM list that helps set up enough options for everything I need. I do think I will end up with less extra bits then the last one - more just simple and efficient beatings.

Current Thought design.

HQ: Crowe
HQ: GKM, Psycannon, Psychotroke Grenades
Elites: Vendread, TWL Autocannon X 2, Psybolt
Troops: GKT X 10, Psycannon X 2, Bro Banner, Halberd X 7, Daemon Hammer X 2
Troops: Purifiers X 10, Psycannon X 4, Halberds X 4, Daemon Hammer, Rhino
Troops: Purifiers X 10, Psycannon X 4, Halberds X 4, Daemon Hammer, Rhino
Troops: Purifiers X 5, Psycannon X 1, Daemon Hammer, Razorback, Psybolt
Troops: Purifiers X 5, Psycannon X 1, Daemon Hammer, Razorback, Psybolt
Heavy: Dreadnought, TWL Autocannon X 2, Psybolt
Heavy: Dreadnought, TWL Autocannon X 2, Psybolt
Heavy: Dreadnought, TWL Autocannon X 2, Psybolt

2500 points on the nose.

So yeah I can get lots of troops - some shooting and other nonsense. Not sure if it is worth wile so will see. I could go to 5 Paladins with two psycannons if I wanted - saves me 100 pts or so but not sure if it is worth it. Might do some DreadKnights to get some teleport action - which makes me think some Inceptors might be alright. Arghs!

I plan on getting some games in today. That is my hope. I will be playing Knights as usual - need to keep on playing if I hope to make the ETC team this year. I want to test some nonsense as usual. Not sure if the Coteaz builds are worth it. Just not fully sure as things get more anti psyker and the Rogue Pyskers become less effective. Here is one of the lists I thought about messing with.

HQ: Coteaz
HQ: Libbie, Shrouding, Might of Titan, Warp Rift, Sanctuary
Elites: Ven Dread, TWL Autocannon X 2, Psybolt
Elites: Ven Dread, TWL Autocannon X 2, Psybolt
Troops: Henchmen - DC X 6, Crusader X 4
Troops: Henchmen - DC X 6, Crusader X 4
Troops: Henchmen - Warrior Acolyte X 3, Meltagun X 3, Razorback, Ass Cannon, Psybolt
Troops: Henchmen - Warrior Acolyte X 3, Plasma X 3, Razorback, Ass Cannon, Psybolt
Troops: Henchmen - Rogue Psyker X 8, Warrior Acolyte X 2, Rhino
Troops: Henchmen - Rogue Psyker X 8, Warrior Acolyte X 2, Rhino
Heavy: LR Redeemer, MM, Psybolt
Heavy: LR Crusader, MM, Psybolt

2000 on the nose too. If I set up for Ard Boyz I might Run a Paladin squad and another dreadnought. So no idea - but this might work well too.

All it means I need to make more jerks. MORE AND MORE!!!

Um - paint stuff later on this week. And I need some food too. FOod!
