Industrial Terrain

So I recently picked up the coolest kit from Games Workshop.

I was thinking oh, that will be a pretty cool building to work on. But I didn't realize exactly how big it was. I mean this thing is enormous. I thought it was just a little wall section. But check out how big it is with the Primaris marines next to it.

That seems rather significant.

I had picked up the Renegade Knights box. Actually the very last one at my local GW shop. So that is part of the reason I decided to get some of the new terrain Games Workshop is making. It is one of the greatest boxed sets ever. You get two Knights cheaper than you can buy them and it comes with this as well which is totally free at the price of the kit.

So that gives me a Galvanic Magmavent and the Sector Imperialis Manufactorum. So I thought that was a pretty good start.

But in sticking with my desire to add some AdMech to miniature collection (I had previously picked up Forgebane), I thought I would grab this new Kill Team for the special character that isn't available anywhere else.

Theta-7 Acquisitus also comes with some of those cool Ryza pattern ruins which I think look very cool. Here is a better picture.

Lots and lots of great things. This gives me some scatter terrain to work in. But since it is still a small set. It is just needing a little something more.

It would be really nice if I had some more of those Ryza pattern terrain bits. Maybe something like the new Killzone: Sector Fronteris Environment Expansion. Yeah, that is perfect.

Here it is spread over a 22” x 30” mat:

So you can imagine it is a lot to paint. Like an enormous amount of glue, etc. Will be very cool to get all of this stuff done with a similar style though. I think I will probably go with a technique like this : YouTube link.

Ah well, picking up Theta-7 and Sector Fronteris today from my pre-order. Hope everything is going well, happy gaming.

War Machines in Age of Sigmar

Well, I've been trying to figure this out because with a dwarf/elf army it becomes pretty important- usually like first turn important. After our first game it became apparent that war machines are very dangerous in Age of Sigmar. Something has me puzzled though- and it is part because of the streamlined rules and in part because of conflicting reports I've uncovered on the internet. Let's start at the beginning. WARSCROLLS & UNITS “All models are described by warscrolls, which provide all of the rules for using them in the game. You will need warscrolls for the models you want to use.” “Models fight in units. A unit can have one or more models, but cannot include models that use different warscrolls. A unit must be set up and finish any sort of move as a single group of models, with all models within 1" of at least one other model from their unit.” When I first read this it seemed very apparent that you would never have more than one unit in a warscroll.

Grumlock & Gazbag

Move 5” Wounds 8 Save 4+ Bravery 7 Grumlok & Gazbag are a single model. Grumlok is armed with a Slaughter-choppa and carries the night goblin shaman a top his shoulders. Gazbag is armed with a Moon staff and carries a stash of Madcap Mushrooms. Attacks Slaughter-choppa range 1”, attack 1, hit 3+, wound 3+, rend -2, dmg d3 Moon Staff range 2”, attack 1, hit 4+, wound 4+, rend -1, dmg d3 Abilities I’m Da Best You can add 1 to all the hit rolls for a Black Orc Big Boss if it is within 10" of any other Orruk Hero from your army in the combat phase. Madcap Mushrooms When a Night Goblin Shaman attempts to cast a spell he can eat a Madcap Mushroom. If he does so roll a dice; on a 2 or more add 2 to the casting roll. On a 1 the mushroom was bad and he can do nothing else until your next hero phase as he starts hallucinating. Magic A Night Goblin Shaman is a wizard. He can attempt to cast one spell in each of your own hero phases, and attempt to unbind one spell in ea

On the Trail

As we moved through the forest, we had a sense that we were being watched. The trade route in the Drachenfell is ominous enough, but pushing off the road into the wood definitely gives you a much bigger sense of dread for those who are sensitive to those things. I remember thinking that Otto was probably blessed that none of this seemed to phase him. He just plodded along jingling and crashing through the primeval forest without any notion of fear or stealth. Dox was particularly quiet. I wasn't entirely sure what he was focused on. He is often very intense like this. Kind, despite his infernal origins, but also very focused and serious. It's as if he has a lot on his mind. After traveling for half the day, the trail led to a clearing. The ramshackle tower seemed quiet, it had a scaffolding staircase, and stretched to the sky over three stories. Concealed in the leaves was a large bear trap. The steel spring trap was set to deter any pursuers, but we considered it w
