The evils of Facebook compared to the evils of Ebay

And they are not really evil... unless you considered how your wallet feels after a... um... proactive session of shinies acquisition.

Sisters are doing it for themselves

This last weekend just gone was not a successful tabletop weekend. First I played Ramskull vs his Dark Eldar and was hammered flat and then took a completely differenct army against Damian's (my flatmate) Sisters of Battle. I was allied with Ramskull's CSM and we got kerbstomped by the end of turn 2 I suspect....

I did hobby and it was GOOD...

Finally got some hobby in.... aaaaaaaahhhhhhhh oh boy did that feel good.

I have a squad finally with three colours on it hurrah, my birthday came and went. Not without acquiring more stuff bucking the current trend Atttack bikes for my ravenwing and rhinos for my tacticals. Parental units gave me some money which went on a case and that helps with my lack of carrying capacity. Im figuring I need another one and bucket loads of foam from KR Multicase. Of which I ordered another 400 slots and pick and pluck this should go a long way to sort out the over flow of Imperial Guard, High Elves, Dark Angels and Blood Angels at least in the infantry. At this point I think Im going to have to have a suitcase full of pick and pluck for my vehicles. Today is my day off from the universe. Domestic stuff today if Im lucky some hobby too.

Things that make you go hmmmm....

So I was typing up the ANZACs rules and began to realise that the entire write up was heavily slanted with regards to Australian flavour and none towards the New Zealanders... As William Wallace said as Mel Gibson "We shall have to remedy that."

Reinforcements arriving

Ok so I mentioned that was getting some Mordians and vehicles. I got them last week Friday from Ramskull who picked them up for me as he got some good deals on some CSM and terrain from the same bloke, arent I a good enabling friend. When I got home there was a package that was a week late from the uk...

Its clobbering time.... but this time it wasnt me...

So this post is going to have several things about hobby, games and the fantasy battle campaign. It's going to be a little all over the place bare with me and follow me below the cut line.

Guard after Guard....

So I had my first 40k game in a while and it wasn't with my beloved DA, it was with my now large Imperial Guard with a whole whopping 500 point game. I still managed to fit a Executioner in there...

Have fun storming the castle...

So hobby has been slow since last report. Very slow non existant other than my required games for the campaign which was fairly epic....As I had to do 3 games because I challenged and was challenged in return and subbed for a team mate. If you were wondering about the he reason for the title...

Quick time

It's been a while, things have happened...

I blame Commando Comics...

No really I do, I once read a Commando Comic... well a lot more than one but still that's not the point anyway this story featured a British artillery unit using the above pictured 25 Pouinder.

It's "Only war"

Just a quick update...

To go with army A or army B...

Well it's been awhile... I thought I would catch you up on what I was doing, mainly 40k putting together my Auztrailians, yes spelt that way so not to get confused with anyone else or any other writing that I may or may not be doing for miniature companies... Along with an announcement of the latest WFB campaign in our local group. This time it's a smaller size with only 16 players. But first my beloved ANZACs...

It's about time you got here

Dark angels and their allies. Obviously Space Wolves are not going to be the ally of choice, if nothing else a fluff point of view. But allies ought to fill holes in your list, if you're aiming to win. If you're aiming to fluff, fluff away. With my ANZAC Imperial guard I'm aiming to do both.

But lets start with my other army Orks ...
