Today's Bit Of Truth

by SandWyrm


As the inevitable conflicts rage over what the 'true' way of 40K is these days, I would remind TOs of this simple truth. The problem isn't the players who aren't having fun. The problem is the game itself, and how the leaders of the 40K community are responding to its many problems.

Don't evade, deny, and cajole. Step up and unite instead! Form a counsel, decide what's kosher, and get every event out there on the same page. Otherwise your efforts will only further fragment what's left of the community, and keep your potential attendees in their basements.

Adepticon Team tournament

By TheGraveMind

 Some of us from the Battle Mallet gaming club decided we were going to go to Adepticon and partake in the Team tournament. We went with no display board, no real theme. We didn't even fully know what our other team members were bringing in their lists. Guess how we did...

Getting Ready For Adepticon: Wolves Or Knights?

by Spaguatyrine


So Adepticon is less than a week away and I am second guessing my army list.   My original thought was space wolves as they are my best army overall at this point.   I also hadn't played in nearly three months until this past Saturday........................

Friday Night Tabletop Fight: SandWyrm vs. Dethtron At Adepticon

by SandWyrm


Most of the 40K blogging elite at Adepticon were busy on Saturday with the Team Tourney. But I managed to get a pick-up game in with Dethtron of Dick Move (part of the Ego of Tasty network). He'd brought along his Elysian Drop Troops. Which were aptly named, as he dropped a box of them on the way to the open gaming hall. Knocking quite a few bits off of one of his Vendettas. Fortunately I brought along some superglue. :)

There's No Crack Like ForgeWorld Crack

by SandWyrm


I was going to call it quits on the Imperial Guard for a while post-Adepticon and concentrate on other things (cough... Emo Wing... cough...). But just when you think you're free, they pull you back in!

Adepticon: LustWing vs. Tallarns

by SandWyrm


Chambers and I finally got a game in! Though we had to travel to Adepticon to do it. We played after my game with Dethtron on Saturday. The battle report for which will be coming on Friday. :)

Do you hate "Counts As" armies? Well prepare for your head to pop! He runs his Slaanish Terminators (Lovingly modeled and painted by Ron at From the Warp) using Space Wolves rules. Kirby would be proud. :)

Adepticon: Armies Of The (Vanilla) Space Marines

by SandWyrm


Despite the newer flavors, armies from Codex: Space Marine still had the largest showing at Adepticon. With Blood Angels a very close second, and Wolves a distant third. So at 17 armies of the 92 I photographed, here's what people had:

Adepticon: Armies Of The Imperial Guard

by SandWyrm


There were 246 players in the 40K Championships, out of which I got pics of 92. Most of the rest didn't put their armies on display prior to game one. As there's so many pics, I'm going to break these up by type. We'll start with the Imperial Guard at 10 of the 92 armies I photographed.  Of which only a few were true Leafblower builds.

Adepticon Pics: The Siege Of Terra Diorama

by SandWyrm


BoLS already posted some pics of this beauty, but the flash they used totally killed the lighting and  color. So here it is in it's proper glory and in every possible angle. To say this diorama is awesome is an understatement. Click on any image to enlarge it. Enjoy!

Wow. I'm tired.

I forgot to bring the right card reader for my computer, so pics will have to wait until I get back to Indy. But here's how I did:
