Dark Vengance Chosen Conversions + Hellbrute W.I.P

 
 As soon as i first saw the pictures of the starter set and its contents, i thought out how i was going to convert the models. So when i got the set i started right away making the proper conversions that i had planned for so long.

Dark Vengance is Here! + Updated Pics

 Just got mine and wow is all i can say. GW has really outdone themselves. Every model has amazing detail. One that really stood out was the limited editon chaplain who has a detailed base already included. But honestly every model in the set is well done.

Alpha Legion Army Update

 Here are some of my basic marines and a rhino. All of them are based off of chaos warriors. I really like the bulky look it gives them.

Defilers in 6th edition


     With this codex reaching its end and with 6th edition out, i decided to try out some of the other heavy support choices available.The defiler has come out as a shining star in this new edition. So much so that i think it is a better choice than obliterators right now (again in this codex, who knows how they will be in the new one). In this edition, having a good defense is key and i feel that the defiler fits this role alot better right now. A stock defiler has a reaper autocannon and a heavy flamer, with the battle cannon being the primary weapon. Dont forget it still has the dreadnought ccw so it strikes at strength 10. Its initiative 3 so most likely it will go last but hopefully it wont be in combat with something that can hurt it. Ordance are really good now and not just because youcan essentially snipe out specific models,but vehicles are hit at full strength no matter where the template hits. This means that you can now take out multiple vehicles at once. Now it can fit the anti tank and anti infantry role quite well. Sitting back with at least two of them can be devastaing if placed right. Im not sure but i also think you can snap fire the reaper autocannon as well. That 72 inch range gives you free roam at what you can target, especialy in "hammer and anvil' deployments. The Defiler has found a good home in 6th edition and i hope this new codex serves this Daemon engine well.

Chaos in August and im still disappointed

Well it looks like daemons are getting some sort of update. After all these rumors of CSM coming out next month, GW changes the release schedule and put daemons ahead of chaos space marines. I was really looking foward to the chaos marine dex to come out next month but they changed the white dwarf at the last minute. So i guess Chaos marine codex September? (starter set is supposed to come out then as well) or October? Maybe CSM is still in the white dwarf but there keeping on the hush? I dont know what to believe anymore.

Should Allies and Double Force Org be Allowed in Tournaments?


There has been some talk about whether or not allies should be allowed in tournaments.While they can add balance to armies that may be considered "weaker" and  help compesate for thier weaknesses, the more powerfull armies will become alot stronger aswell. Also, having 2 force organization charts means that the best units in  codexes will be spammed quite a bit. I can see many players taking advantage of this.
