Hobby: Chaos Terminator Complete (Pics)

Posted on February 2, 2012 06:30 am by Thor

Disciples of Twilight EmblemSeems like I was working on this model forever. Once I had decided my paint scheme I wanted to see it on a model and began painting this Terminator. Once I had things base coated I knew I liked the scheme and left him that way for a while as I worked on models that ‘needed’ to get done. I finally got back around to him and I’m glad he’s finally done.  Read more... (214 words, 5 images, estimated 51 secs reading time)

Battle Report: Chaos vs Blood Angels

Posted on January 27, 2012 07:00 am by Thor

I’m trying to take a new approach to my Chaos lists. At this point I’m over the honeymoon stage where I feel compelled to throw down all sorts of different stuff to learn about the army. That’s not to say there aren’t still units I want to test out, still plenty of those, but that I’m comfortable with the army now at least. So on Wednesday when I got to play I brought along this list: http://cmdctr.net/lists/712. I was planning on an 1,850 game so I threw in the Havocs to make points, it was quick and easy.  Read more... (821 words, 1 image, estimated 3:17 mins reading time)

Battle Report: 2 Days, 2 Games

Posted on January 22, 2012 07:00 am by Thor

Let’s get right to it. Wednesday I got to play a practice team game for tomorrow’s team tournament at my FLGS. I partnered with a Daemon player and we played against two Blood Angels players. I was running Chaos with the following list: http://cmdctr.net/lists/678. In my typical fashion I’ll cover these games in broad strokes.  Read more...

Hobby: WIP Chaos Terminator

Posted on January 19, 2012 07:00 am by Thor

I put up some shots of this model a while ago. I honestly haven’t accomplished a ton with him since but have made progress. I also wanted to try out the small light box I made the other day so here’s a quick shot of how he’s coming along.  Read more... (99 words, 1 image, estimated 24 secs reading time)

Thor’s Workbench: January 17th

Posted on January 17, 2012 08:35 am by Thor

Since my last workbench post I haven’t managed to get a lot accomplished. The holidays impacted my free time to paint and get things assembled. I have managed to mostly get my 2nd Chaos Rhino put together though and my Beastmen (counts-as Lesser Daemons), are all together barring one arm that I need to magnetize.  Read more...

Librarium: Disciples of Twilight

Posted on January 10, 2012 07:00 am by Thor

Disciples of Twilight Paint SchemeAfter lots of thought on the fluff for my Chaos army, Disciples of Twilight, a friend of mine mentioned something to me the other day and everything clicked. I’ve struggled with their fluff and for me fluff is what helps keep the army interesting. Now I have a direction and a lot of ideas.  Read more...

Hobby: Plague Champion 2 Complete (Pics)

Posted on January 9, 2012 08:07 am by Thor

Finally got this guy wrapped up and I’m pretty pleased with how he came out. I’m one of those people who paints based on value and position. Meaning my HQs and elites see more love than troop choices. However, with my Plague Marines in general I’ve spent more time on them then I would a normal Chaos Marine. My Sarges/Nobs/Champions always get more time then the rest of the unit but still not as substantial as other models I’ll paint for the army.  Read more...

Tournament Report: Kill Team

Posted on January 5, 2012 08:32 am by Thor

Every few months we run a quick Kill Team tournament at my FLGS. There’s always a good showing and last night we had 16 of us for it. The last time we did this I ran five Chaos Terminators and got smoked in all three games. This time I opted for seven Plague Marines with two plasma guns. I gave one plasma gun infiltrate, one relentless and a bolter guy slow and purposeful.  Read more... (632 words, 1 image, estimated 2:32 mins reading time)

Painting: WIP Plague Champion & Magnet Mounter

Posted on January 4, 2012 08:54 am by Thor

This is the final model in this particular unit and he’s close to completion. Though further from completion are shots of his arms which are magnetized. I took the shots not so much to show the arms as the simple setup I have for the magnetized arms. The ‘arm holder’ is just some scrap stuff glued together with magnets on the end of the T. It’s great for holding the arms to prime, seal, let dry when using washes and to ensure my magnet polarity is always correct.  Read more... (90 words, 5 images, estimated 22 secs reading time)

December Tournament Report: The Chaos Induction

Posted on January 3, 2012 08:04 am by Thor

Originally we, myself and two other authors here, had planned on doing a joint battle report but that never came to pass. I had already written my portion of things so instead of wasting it I may as well toss it up here.  Read more... (557 words, 1 image, estimated 2:14 mins reading time)

Battle Report: Team Game with Chaos

Posted on December 30, 2011 07:00 am by Thor

Wednesday 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: http://cmdctr.net/lists/611.  Read more...

Disciples of Twilight: Minor Update

Posted on December 27, 2011 08:37 am by Thor

Disciples of Twilight Paint SchemeSo, Santa was pretty nice to me. Between the bonus I got at work and the misses’ xmas gift I can add more to my growing Chaos army. Naturally, as is the case with me when I can get something, I’m just not sure what to snag yet. At the moment I own:  Read more... (387 words, 1 image, estimated 1:33 mins reading time)

Battle Report: Planetstrike – The Forgotten Expansion

Posted on December 22, 2011 09:34 am by Thor

I recall when Planetstrike was due out how excited I was to try it. That was just about three years ago and I had only played it twice despite owning the book. Last night though at my FLGS almost everyone decided to play Planetstrike.  Read more... (1150 words, 1 image, estimated 4:36 mins reading time)

Battle Report: Disciples of Twilight vs Cobra

Posted on December 16, 2011 07:00 am by Thor

Wednesday my Chaos Marines faced Imperial Guard. His army is themed as Cobra. Wish I had a shot of his army, it’s cool, complete with Cobra Commander and Destro. You can see it a bit on the left image.  Read more... (688 words, 1 image, estimated 2:45 mins reading time)
