Who needs prepainted terrain? I'm enjoying this Combat Patrol terrain more than I thought I would.

  This electric fence is one of two for my set of 11th edition terrain made from two boxes of Combat Patrol terrain.  I'm not a big fan of the overly complicated terrain pieces that just seem cluttered with useless detail, but it is steeped in 40k "grimdark" atmosphere. However, I'm kind of excited to field a fully set of official terrain though. 

At first, I didn't like this piece of terrain from the new Combat Patrol Battlezone Terrain set but I like how it turned out after a coat of paint and a little modification. It's busy, but it'll be fun to use in battles.

Supreme Grand Master Azrael is ready to join my Dark Angels successor chapter, the Rampant Lions.  Since it's a successor chapter , I feel like I should give him a new name...

I just finished this looted Armiger Warglaive for my Ork Knight army. This rascal is piloted by a grot who has a devil may care attitude and screams waaagh from the roof of his new war machine.

Last weekend my buddy Kyle and I traveled to Wichita to represent the Topeka Radio Symphony Orchestra in the Warhammer 40k Grand Tournament.  Boy, did I beef it. For some reason, I decided to not play Orks or Blood Angels and bring my Salamanders so I could play my Centurions one last time before they're sent to Legends. I played the Forgefather's Seekers and Vengeful Hosts detatchments, with Take and Hold disposition.  Man, I wasnt ready for a tournament and mistakes were made. I was nearly tabled in every game and I went 1-5 with my only win against a player who was throwing the match because it was his second game of 11th and he was just playing for a laugh. Also, I had a rough week at work and received bad news on the day we arrived (twice!) Instead of giving a recap of each matchup, I'll just say that I played poorly, I had a crappy attitude, and I didn't enjoy myself. It was all my own fault too.
