I've been list building for a 2,500 point tournament coming up in October. I'm either going to play my IG, Wolves or Blood Angels. Out of my armies that are in playable condition, the current meta suggests I should run IG with some Wolf allies but I detest allies so I'm going to play a pure list - I just haven't made up my mind which one yet.  My IG would be fairly standard, lots of mech, lots of troops with a sizable psyker unit that usually catches my opponents off guard. I haven't played them since 5th because I can't cast while in a chimera anymore. My Blood Angels dreadnought/drop pod army is a lot of fun, but I had an idea to field 30 Death Company with power weapons and power fists. I know they are expensive, but not much can stand up to that... except a lot of barrage weapons first turn. However, I think I'm going to try the Logan Wing list. Here's roughly what I've got on paper now. *Logan *Run priest - Jaws, Living Lig...

One of the games that I've been obsesed with, yet can't find an opponent to play is, "1938: A Very British Civil War" from Solway Crafts and Miniatures . Panzerkaput at Blog Spot describes it as: VBCW or Very British Civil War is an alternative history created by Messers Jones, Mortimore and Douglas and published by Solway Crafts and Miniatures. In this scenario Edward VIII refuses to abdicate triggering a constitutional crisis which divides the nation and results in Civil war. As a result instead of going to war in Europe Britain is facing a very British crisis.  This is just up my alley! British, alternate history, fighting fascists, mustaches... Basically, Edward the 8th marries his American girlfriend, does not give up the throne and the United Kingdom splits at the seams into civil war. The loyalists to Edward join up with the goosesteppers in Germany, the Reactionaries take up arms to oppose him and support Parliament, the Anglican church doesn...

Yesterday I broke out the new Praetorians and took them to a tournament at the Gatekeeper. 1,750 points is an OK limit for the IG. I can easily get my core Troop choices in the list and still have room for the usual tricks. My Blood Angel drop pod army isn't really any good until 1,850 and I had played my Wolves in the last tourney. Plus, I just picked up my favorite flavor of IG so I was thrilled to put my moustachoed models on the table! Roughly my list: CCS with grenade launchers (I'm working on some conversions.) PCS with grenade launchers 30 Man blob with flamers 1 Heavy Weapon squad with las cannons 2 Veteran squads, meltas, chimeras 2 Hydras 2 Basilisks 1Leman Russ (stock) 1 Vendetta 1 Defense line (no gun) My first opponent was a new guy to the area and he brought his orks. We played the long ways on the table and my barrage weapons were eating him up. However, we only got to the top of turn 4 and he held two more objectives than me for the win. I feel l...
