Fulgrim - Primarch of The Emperor's Children

/

Warhammer 40,000 - Fulgrim has ling been one of my favorite Primarch’s, back in third edition I had a pretty cool force that had sonic weapons on bikes and summoned daemons for melee. I’ve long since parted with the force but the memories from playing it are fond. So much so that I’ve been looking at the current Index to see if I might want to try and recreate my old force.

Sadly this model isn’t usably in 40K proper so it’s going to live on a display shelf with the other Primarchs.

Warhammer Underworlds - Next Wave

/

Age of Sigmar – Warhammer Underworlds is a really cool system, with each rotation the warbands get more and more impressive. I was happy to hear that cards would rotate out of the system over time, which was one of the biggest barriers of entry for new players. Of course that doesn’t change the need to but each new set to get all the cards so players that only pick up one set will still be fighting an uphill battle.

I just wrapped up the Orks, Lumineth, Daughters of Khaine and Slaanesh warbands. Each of these are really nice push fit models that go together easily. I’m really impressed with how far plastic push fit models have come.

Is a Leadership Based List Viable? - Chaos in 8th

Warhammer 40,000 - Early in 8th edition I decided to do a Night Lords list, my idea was to do a ton of Raptors that messed with leadership to force my opponents to run away. Sadly with the rule of three spamming a ton of minimal Raptor units isn’t really viable. Another issue is that “assault troops” with a single base attack don’t really do well in assault, nor do small specialized units. While they’re vicious and great in combat in the lore and other background; in reality Raptors are a mobile firebase that can max out on special weapons.
