Ork Green Tide hits the table!

If all you have is a choppa, everything looks like it wants to get crump't.

I took the boyz out for a game against Jim and his tricksy Eldar. It was a narrow loss but I love how the Orks Green Tide play. They are more durable than expected and the Go Get 'Em strategem is incredibly problematic for my opponents. Jim's flop sweat was hilarious because he was afraid to shoot anything...

I'm super pumped for my Orks at the moment. After 25 years, I've finalized my ork skin process and Deathskulls blue scheme and I'm enjoying the heck out of painting my lucky blue gits. I can paint 3 Orks in the same time it takes me to paint a single Space Marine so now the volume of painting isn't intimidating.

Salamanders Badab War Veteran

Primaris Marines are great sculpts, but they will never have the soul of the old hand-sculpted models. The Badab War is my favorite battle in the 40k universe and its one of the reasons that the Salamanders are my favorite Space Marine chapter. #miniaturepainting #paintingwarhammer #grimdark #warhammercommunity #salamanders #salamanders40k #28mm #spacemarines40k #oldhammer #badabwar #astartes #armageddon40k

Callidus Assassin

This is my newly painted Callidus assassin, Mary Poppin-yourbackfield. She scores points. I hate that I have to play one of these to stay competitive. Yar.

Bad News for Deathwing

The new Balance Data Slate was released today for Warhammer 40k 9th edition and my beloved Dark Angels Deathwing list took a beating. If you don't have the codex, the fourth bullet point was the rule that gave Inner Circle infantry units, like Deathwing Terminators, Transhuman Physiology. Basically, the key feature that most players loved about the list. Rest in peace, Deathwing, we hardly knew ye. Also, what a crappy way to write that rule?! Why not simply include a sentence that says, Inner Circle models do not benefit from transhuman without use of a strategem? I know 10th edition is supposed to be cleaner and easier to understand, but this does not bode well. I'm not really a loyal Dark Angels player (see what I did there?) so I'll just shift back to playing one of my other Marines armies or orks. I've been day dreaming about a Thunder Warriors army again and dug out some bits to work on conversions. I'm loving the idea of a Age of Stryfe White Scars/Star Hunt...
