The Bride and Groom… from Hell

baph 1aI’ve been carrying these two around for years and I FINALLY spent about 5 hours getting them done today.  Meet Baphemut and Cassandra, my greater daemon and/or daemon prince model!  Baph is an old-school GW minotaur I got for cheap (cuz he’s so old) and Cassy is an old-school Dark Elves slave girl.  I just thought it’d be really cool to make this big blue monster with a hotty girl friend stretched out like a cat in heat on his base.

Rok Da Vote: Chaos Daemons Codex (Closed)

Chaos DaemonsIt’s been a little over a month since I put up the poll asking what you all thought about the new Daemons codex. The results are interesting. So far it’s the lowest rated codex in 6th edition based on the polls I’ve done here anyway. Here’s the results.

Tournament Report: Chaos Climbs to the Top

Chaos LordTournaments burn me out. I enjoy them, don’t get me wrong, but after one I’m hardly in a condition to write-up cool reports. That being said, I didn’t do one for the previous month so something is better than nothing, right?

Chaos Allies: Giving Imperial Guard a Go

Imperial GuardI held off on making my preferred choice on an allied detachment until the Daemons codex came out. Let me be honest, I have not looked over the Daemons’ codex thoroughly. I have gone through it all but trying to create a list is something I have not done. The reason being that nothing caught my eye. I’m definitely not saying it’s a bad codex or anything like that, just that nothing jumped out at me and made me want to try them.

Rok Da Vote: New 40K Daemons Codex

Chaos DaemonsThe highly anticipated Daemons codex is here. I have not had the chance to look at it yet but I know it drastically changes everything. How that plays out in the long run will be interesting but for now I’m looking to get some initial reactions to the new codex.

Battle Review: Chaos vs Daemons

Chaos MarinesI opted for a different approach with my Chaos list this time out. I have been struggling with my Chaos Marines lately, for various reasons, and something had to change. Long story short, I needed to play a list I enjoyed. I don’t often make balanced lists, they bore me, and the lists I’ve been playing lately have been going in the right direction (for me), but just not cutting it.

Hobby: Bloodletters Complete

Khorne IconThis past weekend I managed to get in a lot of painting and knock out a unit of 10 Bloodletters. First up some shots, which aren’t very good. I’ll get better quality ones later when I have time to set up my light box and everything. They do also look better in person. These shots are washing them out. I just wanted to get some quick shots up while they were still on my painting table.

The Agony of Choices

helpAs everyone is well aware, the Chaos codex came out this past Saturday. As excited as I was for it, and am to have it, it creates a problem for me. Next month is my FLGS’ large annual 40K tournament. Last year I couldn’t play Chaos because I was far from having the army completed in terms of painting. This year I can do it but I need to nail down a list ASAP so I can get the needed models painted for it.

FLGS Tournament: Quick Report

Greater Daemon of Slaanesh - 1Yesterday was a 2K tournament at my FLGS. Normally our tournaments are packed with anywhere from 16 – 20 players but yesterday there was just 7 of us. Guess everyone was busy!

Battle Report: Space Marines vs Daemons (Video)

Fate's Angels: Battle ReportI decided to try my hand at doing a video battle report, my first ever. In this video I played Steve’s Daemons in a practice game for Feast of Blades. I won’t give away the game but let’s say it was very one-sided.

Quick Re-cap: Final 5th Edition Tournament

Explosion: TournamentThis past weekend was my final tournament in 5th edition. We were playing 2K and I brought along my Chaos Marines. I was hoping to go out with a bang, and I suppose I did…

Battle Report: Team Tournament Practice

Battle Report: ChaosNext month a bunch of us from my FLGS will be traveling to Massachusetts for a team tournament hosted by the Dorkamorka club. It’s a 2K team tournament, so 1K per-player. Each player has the normal compulsory choices and then, basically, share the rest of the force org.

Spectre Studio: Video BatRep Episode 2 (Video)

Spectre Senence: Video BatRepThis is Spectre Studio 2nd BatRep. Spectre Wile takes the lead role with the Sisters of Battle. It’s a large fight consisting of 2,000 points a side which we agreed to because it showcases one of our favorite players at CrossRoad Games, Steve “Hippie” McKenna. Steve does an awesome job in building and painting his army [he regularly wins painting competitions]. Steve will be playing his Chaos Daemons and this report features one of the tables he created for the “Standish Standoff” in 2011.

Battle Report: Team Game with Chaos

Battle Report - ChaosWednesday night at my FLGS I played a team game. January’s tournament will be a team game with 1,250 per-player and random pairings. The force org is restricted to avoid breaking it and make pairings easier. It’s 1 HQ, 0-1 elite, 1-3 troops, 0-1 fast attack and 0-1 heavy and you can add 1 more to any of the 0-1 selections. In my continuing effort to test things out with Chaos I brought this list, the same one I used last week: .

Battle Report: Dark Gods and the Inevitable

Battle Report - InevitableThus far my Chaos Marines, Disciples of Twilight, have had a really strong showing in the handful of games I’ve managed with them. By far the best start, win/loss ratio, I’ve had with any army. Part of that I feel is honestly because nobody plays them at my FLGS with regularity. Players are on a bit of a learning curve when across from them. Once people become more accustomed to them the harder it will be for me.

Battle Report: Chaotic Christmas

Battle Report - Daemon PrinceFor my FLGS’ December tournament we’ll be playing at 1,225 (12/25, get it?). So on Wednesday I brought in my Chaos Marines to get them ready for their first ever monthly tournament appearance. I’m pretty excited to see how they do as I’ve been doing really well with the army thus far.
