Hi Gang! This month we have a real variety. Renee played a bunch of different games, and the Staff painted Warhammer, Historical, Infiniti, and Battletech models. I also couldn’t resist using the D&D prepainted minis to make yet another Diorama!

Hi Everybody! The month may have been short but you would never know it. Andrew painted a BUNCH of miniatures for a variety of different games including Necromunda and Trench Crusade. And if that wasn’t enough, Sean rivaled Andrew’s accomplishments and painted a bunch of Roman and WW2 Historical models.

Every Thursday we have Battletech here at the store and Dan got some great pics of that, as well Dan and Chloe started a D&D campaign. There continues to be strong interest in Legions Imperalis and Uncle Mike painted a bunch of terrain for that. Anyway, without further ado, here is what people thought about their projects this month:

In the grim darkness of the 41st millennium, where war rages across the galaxy, the Dark Angels emerge from the shadows with a resounding roar. As the enigmatic First Legion of Space Marines, they bear the weight of a turbulent history, marked by loyalty, secrecy, and a relentless pursuit of redemption.

After a harsh cold cycle where YYC Hive was often cut off due to static storms and desperate raiders along key supply routes, hivers rejoice as Tithing Season brings warmer weather…perhaps ‘rejoice’ is too strong a word. As the season progresses and the temperature rises it is not uncommon to see Barbed Venomgorse and other carnivorous plants growing in the disused sections of the Hive.

Way out past the Palatine Cluster, beyond the safety of the barrier city-domes, stands the YYC Hive. A black spire rising out of the ash wastes of the Stormlands. A rough and ready breed of Necromundans call this hive home, bred strong in a region as beautiful and wild as it is deadly and unforgiving.
Geographically set apart by harsh climate and grueling distance, is it any surprise that the flora and fauna of this storied hive are often unique, seen nowhere else on Necromunda? Trade routes through the wastes are limited and highly maintained, a perfect opportunity to eradicate pests before they enter the hive proper. And thus the Rat Patrol was created.

A new edition of Warhammer 40,000 is here and it’s a great time to get into the game or start a new collection. However, building up an entire army in 40k can be a bit of a daunting prospect – especially considering the cost in both money and time. Fortunately, the new 9th Edition has put some new emphasis into playing smaller-scale games. Combat Patrol is a specific size of game requiring a force of no more than 25 Power (or 500 points) worth of models. This translates into a compact collection of around a couple squads, a character or two and maybe a vehicle.
Better yet, most factions in the game have a ready-made starting point in the form of Start Collecting boxes. But which offer you the best bang for your buck? In this series, we’re taking a look at all 25 Start Collecting boxes available for 40k, and evaluating just how useful they are when building a Combat Patrol. We’re using Power here to compare the different boxes (just to keep things simple) but building your list with points instead will still come out quite similar. The values used here are also from the recently published Power level updates, so these should all be up to date with the latest info.
Today, we’re polishing off our series with a look at the Xenos factions. As befits a category of entirely different alien races, we have quite a variety of options to cover. Let’s dive in, shall we?
