When Life Gives You Renegs, Make Renegade: Chaos Space Marines vs Space Marines

It's been a dark age since I last fought on Drawbridge. Those darn cults are up in arms again, though, and someone's got to put them down. 
 

Own Goaliath

 The completionist clock ticks one minute closer to midnight.

Sandcastle: Emperor's Children vs Alpha Legion

As promised, it's a trial run for Kas's new army. Chaos on all sides, who is the most chaotic?

Duking for York: Chaos Space Marines vs Tyranids

 

A long time ago, a young teenager read a complicated hardback book...

The Taund of Music

Somehow, sneak previewing these two on our Whatsapp group chat turned into an extended Sound of Music pun riff. 

A Few Good Mantis: Mantis Warriors vs Tyranids

Time, at last, to catch up with my long-suffering Mantis Warrior, Captain Nampo. Will he finally get his warriors back from the traitor who stole them?

What Possessed Me?

Here's a quick transparent Archon Rampart guy who'd been nearly finished for ages as window dressing. But that's not what we're here for today.

That very nice man Stylus, as well as painting me with my octopus teacher, also sent me some spare Greater Possessed models. They don't exist anymore, see, which made the two I have a bit redundant. But with three new bodies, I could field a unit again!

Alpha T'au Omega: Alpha Legion vs Farsight Enclaves

 Rematch! Kasfunatu's implacable T'au tore through me the last time we played, and we decided that a swap of sides was in order. 

New Gun in Tau'n: Tau vs Alpha Legion

Good lord - in an usual act of latency, I played a game about three months ago and never wrote it up. Heresy! 

Weekend at Burnies 3: Ultramarines vs Khorne Daemons, Harlequins and Necrons

Pootle here again with a write-up of my first few games at Weekend at Burnies against Khorne Daemons, Harlequins and Necrons.

Made Like You And Me

 

Needs must - when you're low on stuff to paint, you get creative. 

Legion the First Day of Christmas

 

The 25th is kind of like Boxing Day back home, and therefore not too early to start painting again. Although I said that during the Julbord as well, in fairness. 

I Get Back Up Again

 It's the Plumbawumba decider battle - Alpha Legion back against Mantis Warriors to determine an eventual winner!

I Get Knocked Down

 A visiting challenger - General Plumbawumba is working in Gothenburg for a couple of months, and hasn't played for about nine years. He took me up on the offer of a introduction to 9th, and we had a couple of quick 500 point matches over lunch. 

Alpha Strike

 

General Kas wants to learn more about Tyranids, and I am quite happy to be practised on! Battle time. 

Alphantom Menace

Too many spare parts!

Operation Torch Them: Alpha Legion vs Tempestus Scions

Homebrew mission time! 

The Importance of Good Hydration

 

That's the last of my short burst of resin - it's Lernean Terminators!

Maelstrork of Waaagh! Orks vs Alpha Legion

Bludteef's Evil Sunz have been fighting on two fronts on Bagot Prime against the Ultramarines and the forces of Nurgle, but unbeknownst to the Orks, there's something fishy going on: today's marines are armoured like the Purge but are actually from the Alpha Legion. Kraken will be piloting the Alphas over Skype whilst I, Pootle, take command of the Orks. We're testing out the new Maelstrom of War rules, but my big question for tonight is simple: can Bludteef actually survive a battle?

Lords of the Dance

Been a while since the Alpha Legion did any recruiting. Time to remedy that!
