Ringing in the New Year with the sound of Shurikens and Las

Hey guys and gals, i went to Hobbytown the other day for the first time in what seems like forever to actually play games !      I got to play my first game of Space Hulk (which was great fun)  and a few rounds of Soda Pop Miniatures "Super Dungeon Explorer" which is unique and quirky, but really very fun.  Then i got in a 1500 point 4 way free for all match, with  Landon's  "Hammers of Vornis" space marine chapter, another guys mis-matched space marine w/ IG proxies, and Jim Bowen's Dark Eldar. I had out the Pilgrims, and used the Jacobite and Rallen platoons, along with the Yurien tank "Sergeant at Arms".  Pics below !

The Hammers of Vornis ended up taking the day at the end of turn 3 as the store was closing. The pilgrims had a total of 12 Jacobite and 1 Rallen casualty. With the Vendetta in the back killing a Dark Eldar Ravager. I also did some damage to the Mis-Matched marine/ IG forces.


While i was up at the store i picked up some forces for the Eldar. I've got an idea for a craftworld in mind, that i'll share next post along with some pics of the WIP.  I picked up a Wraithlord, some reaver jetbikes (which i have converted to Corsair Jetbikes), and Jim Bowen sold me a retro and 4 metal harlequins, 2 have fusion pistols and one of the metal has a harlequin kiss.  I converted up the farseer with one of the Mirror Faceplated Reaver Pilot Helmets, and she looks very cool now.  Like i said i'll have some shots of the things i've got now, along with the early stages of background for the craftworld.

As for Codex: Pilgrims of Rust.  I'm still working on it so never fear !


Thats all for now guys, have a great New Year !

Harlequins Finished and some 15mm stuff

Hey guys, i finished the Harlequins and the Shadowseer (minus 1 Retro Death Jester, who i'll get to probably after the seer council)  so heres the pics

So there you have them, in all their cool, jester-assasin glory !


Also, i talked about "The Christmas War" last post, and i've been preping for it today, as i broke out some old Heroscape tiles and repurposed them for usage as a quick and easy way to make 15mm hills, (though i guess you could use it for any scale). I have bigger plans than just a badlands outpost, and i am hoping to add a forest soon, and a small town.  For now, here's what i've got

Overview of the Compound, and the path leading up to it.

Close up of the walls, some Rebel mini's  PDF, which will be the Laurentian Troops. and a Mechwarrior gunship, which has been pressed into service for the Laurentian Military, shown for a bit of scale.

A Trooper, patrols the pass.


Thats all my updates for right now.  Im still mulling over exactly what craftworld i'll be doing, Im choosing between, Yme-Loc, Alatioc, and Biel-Tan.   I have decided to incorporate, Corsairs, Exodites, and a few Harlequin themed guys.  Loose fluff, is the Farseer, sees some grave threat (probably the Pilgrims) and gets as many military forces together as he can to stop them. Its for that reason i think Yme-Loc would be cool, as they are described as mostly artisans and therefore might not have as big a military presense as Biel-Tan or Alatioc; so they might use corsairs and the like to bolster them ? 

What do you guys think about the stuff today. I always enjoy constructive critisism.

Harlequins and A random gimp creation

Hey guys. So i've decided that the rival army for my Chaos is going to be Eldar !  I've had these Harlequins laying around forever so i decided to paint them up. I've got a few more to go, but i figured you could use an update so here you go.  Also, i have a seer council, which begs the question what Craftworld should i do ?   OR  would you like to see either 1.) Eldar Corsairs  or 2.) A Harlequin themed army?  Let me know in the comments.

so theres the four i have finished right now. Still have another troupe member and the Troupe Leader to finish.

lastly, i was bored today, so i made this in Gimp, for the "Christmas War" campaign made by Chris at Dropship Horizon, which myself and Radioactive. Are going to play out for your enjoyment, in the next few weeks or so.


-another bit of news, if you live in my area. The owner of Gaming Underground in High Point, has said that he is more than willing to allow us to play up there, and will even start ordering anything wargaming you like. I'd love to help support another gaming store.   (Thanks to Radioactive for this one)
