TAU KX139 TA'UNAR SUPREMACY ARMOUR....... OMG

Ok.. First things first sorry for the hibernation, I just needed to recharge my modelling batteries, but how about this to get the blood pumping again after a big slumber, true it would only last two turns, but how much fun would those turns will be..... :)

Rules here

Forge World's Chaos Knight is on sale...

My new love of all Knights has not wavered recently and definitely not now the Chaos Knight is out with new chaos rules and a slight tweak to the Reaper Chainsword, called the Foe-reaper Chainsword.  Also posted are the rules:-

KYTAN DAEMON ENGINE OF KHORNE

The Kytan Daemon engine has finally been released from the dark depths of Forge World, including the new experimental rules. (click here) At just 525 points WS5, I5 and four 'D' attacks, then add rage, it's a formidable opponent for the Imperial Knight and the Wraith Knight.  But will it do the business or should we all wait the the Chaos Knight?  

To be honest I'm undecided, if only I had pots of money then I could buy them both.  But I do think the legs are a little to small for the torso and if I had my time again I would have given my Lord of Skulls hind legs like the Kytan (I should have thought of that).  The legs on my Lord of Skull are a little chunky with giant feet compared the FW kit.  

Additionally the two major differences between the Kytan and the Lord of Skulls (apart from the Stomp rules) is that the Kytan has lost the Hellstorm template weapon and the extra attacks for being wounded, which to be honest were the only good rules for the Lord of Skulls, but it is 300 points less, swings and round about.  

P.S. I am very interested in your opinion on what you think the best lord of war would be because I cannot make my mind up:-  Lord of Skulls, Kytan or the Chaos Knight 

New Battle Fleet Gothic anybody? well almost

I was so excited when I saw this on BOLS, at last I thought 'GW have seen the light and have re-invented Battle Fleet Gothic and may be 40K Epic would be next.'  Alas they haven't but it could just be taster for things to come, At-least that's what I'm hoping anyway :)

The playing pieces look cool though, maybe I could buy 10 boxes of Forbidden Stars and use them for both Epic and Battle Fleet Gothic :)

Blast from my past, Ebay sales.

As some of you are aware I have been collection figures for some time now and there comes a time when you just need to let some stuff go to make room for the new shiny shiny and for the funds topay for it :)

After selling my Warlord Titan to Dave at Weemen, who I had the pleasure of finally meeting at Blog Wars 9, with a little help from Alex who organised another great tournament. It came to pass that the Imperial Knight was once again a top tier codex at the event and that got me thinking!  It also came to my knowledge that I have not played Apocalypse for some time and as these are primarily for the Apocalypse game,  by buying a Imperial Knight army they can be used for a standard game and Apocalypse it's a win win situation. 

So it's with some regret that I have decided to let these go, for another commander to take them into battle, I hope you like my auctions.  Good luck and happy bidding :)

Chaos Knight and Lord of Skulls with legs?

A very interesting and expensive day for me today, not only the new Warlord Titan, but look what almost got missed in all the excitement.

Hang on a moment that's the exact pose I used for my Lord of War, well almost :)

I took these images while I was teaching my son how to play with Lords of War.  4 Riptides vs a Lord of Skulls, that was an interesting match up and to be fair it could of gone either way except my son wanted to use the Lord of Skulls and once again he rolled out of his skin.  I'm trying to teach him the rules and I've yet to beat him..... beginners luck :)

The Forge World "Warlord Titan" has been spotted OMG! Part 2

I know these images are doing the rounds but I just had to share, I WANT ONE :)

More images can be found here and the price :)
