Happy Holidays

Had to end the year with the greatest video of 2010. Enjoy!

IFists vs. Slaanesh cult noise marines 1850

Themed Armies

Rogal Dorn and his Fists




For the past couple of weeks, ive been playing themed chaos lists: All khorne berzerkers led by Kharn, All noise marines and Lucius, etc. Ive got to say that playing Fluff themed list are so much fun and i recomend it to everyone. Although i do enjoy playing with competitive lists, the games are just not as exciting. Like a few days ago, i played my Noise marines led by lucius against an Imperial Fists army (also themed). I wont go into detail but towards the end of the game, lucius and his remaining noise marines charged into lysander and 10 terminators. the fight lasted 4 assault turns with lysander and lucius going head to head. Eventualy, lucius was killed by lysander, but not before dealing 3 wounds on the first company captain. It was truley an amazing game.
It just reminded me of how much fun this warhammer 40k really is. Replaying epic battles with great special characters. With this being said, my next project will be a Typhus zombie plague army( with the zombies being lesser daemons rule wise). So i will be updating progress on that, and expect a battle report of the Noise marine, Imperial fist battle!

Chaos Wolf Lord

This is just an HQ for my chaos wolves whenever i play them. I used, a chaos havoc body, huron blackhearts arm, a bretonian shield with the iconography shaved off, and a khorne hound as a thunderwolf.

Angron, Primarch of the World Eaters

Kharn the betrayer conversion #2

Heres my second and final incarnation of kharn. I personally hate the origional model beacause the pose is too static and not very exciting. Also with this one i put a lot more time in painting it. This was originally supposed to be my HQ for the BFS tournament, but changed my mind at the last minute. I used a chaos havoc body as base, ork arm converted with an old chaos terminator chainaxe, a converted csm head with kharns bunny ears, and a csm khorne shoulder pad to top it off.

Hope you enjoy it as much as i had making it!

Question : What does twin-linked mean?

*stupid question* This is something thats been bugging me for a while now.

In a couple of games ive played my opponents always rolled two dice to represent something that is twin linked. I personally have always thought that twin linked means that you roll one die, re rolling it if it fails and accepting the second result. But some people tell me that you roll 2 dice with no re roll. Doing this means that there is a better chance of hitting the target than just re rolling one dice.

How do you play twin linked weapons? How are you supposed to play twin linked weapons?

Update! + Finished Angron + Space wolves

Now that the BFS tournament is over, i can finally get back to posting. Hopefully getting new readers with some of the new content i will be putting up in the next few weeks. But why is there a space wolf codex in the picture?

As far as the tournament goes, i did very well and met some great people. My record ended up being 2-2(could have been 3-1 but my opponent in the last round took very long in doing his turns, i think on purpose, so we only got up to turn 4. I, without a doubt would have won that game) for day one. Only to lose in the bronze bracket in the first game the next day. It was a very close game though! we tied on the first 2 objectives, but he beat me by kill points. And above is my finished Angron, Primarch of the world eaters. It did more than turn a few heads at the tournament!

Another shot...

And to explain the space wolves codex, at the big apocalapse game that was hosted by Fritz on sunday, i won the headhunter award for killing 4 HQs. Not to mention that i only did it in 2 turns, with 8 obliterators! So i won a 20$ gift card to CBH. I didnt really want any models so i just bought the space wolf codex figuring it would be a good read. but as i was reading it, i became more and more inspired to make my own space wolf army/list.

Chaos wolves of course, so i made this guy as a wolf guard battle leader on a thunderwolf. Its a good change from playing CSM all the time. Plus, the conversion ideas are endless!

Since im using my chaos army to represent them, im making custom twin linked lascannons to put on my rhinos so they can represent razorbacks, but still remain rhinos so that i can use them when i play them as CSM. I think they came out great. Im probably going to be playing them as wolves for a little while just to get the feel of the codex.

Also, if anyone was wondering the list i ran at the tournament, here it is:
