A Warm Welcome

To all of you who have found my blog through Faeit212, I bid you a welcome. I thought I would take a moment to just quickly throw out the welcome mat and explain what I hope to achieve through this blog.

Showcase: Crimson Hunter

I've finally finished a miniature! I know that this blog was initially a painting blog, but over the summer I've not had much time to paint, so I've been playing a lot more. But I can say that this model can be ticked off now.

An Open Letter of Apology

This is a letter that I feel inclined to write given recent games, and one that I think perhaps is expected from my opponents as penance for recent games.

Writing Army Lists, My Way

I've recently posted my list for general viewing, but, in lieu of a long awaited post on another subject, I thought i'd take a side track and go through how I would write an army list in any game, for any situation.

A Simple List

A few posts back I mentioned that I was in the process of designing a 1000 point list that would pretty much stand up to almost anything and be something to fall back on whenever I needed a list to play an impromptu match. Coming off the back of a fourth straight win without reply, albeit all against Space Marines, I thought i'd share the list and what I look to each unit to do.

Grudge Match!

Well, this Sunday came and went with one of the most eagerly anticipated games of recent times. My Eldar taking on the Master Of Sanctitiy's Dark Angels, and away we go.

Eldar Vs Blood Angels

After the last game, I made some changes to my 1k list in an attempt to make it more all round for the purpose of just having a competitive list I can put on the table without having to write a list every time. Plus it gives me the goal of getting that small part of my painting list completed.

This game however, would end up being one of the best and most brutal games that I had ever played with hardly anything left on the table come the end.

Back to War Part 2

As I left you last time, I had just deployed. When I saw Imperial Guard, I knew tanks would be an issue, but I hadn't reckoned on a large blob squad of standard guardsmen. I hadn't rolled an Eldritch Storm for Eldrad and he was pretty much a support Farseer this game (damn you random tables), but I reckoned seeing as I had first turn I'd be able to do some damage to start with, I used Eldrads Redirection power to move the Wraithknight closer to the large scary missile on the right corner of the table and he would be going right for it....
