Lion Warriors Heavy Reinforcement

 Another Dreadnought has arrived to support the Lion Warriors .

Again from the Station Forge line sold by Hammerline miniatures.



To make it different this guy has a different claw with a flamer and a plasma cannon. Now I can have 2 dreadnoughts striding I to battle providing fire support. As with the previous post I am getting better at picking out little details to paint which make the model pop. Like the piping along the side of the plasma gun. 

Roll on next 40k game so I can play this guy

Bring on the Ale!!!

 


My awesome friend Alex bought me a 3rd party Norse blood bowl team for my birthday. I love the models so much. So now we know what team I am taking to the next season of Blood bowl don't we!!

I haven't named them yet but here they are in all their glory. 

The Team photo

The big guy. My Yeti

Beer Pig!!

Mostly lineman 

Ulfwerener and berserkers

I can't wait to try out this team as it seems quite bashy which I like. 

I went with green to make the team stand out from my other teams I have. Looking at the pictures I need to start picking out more details I've improved lots but looking at the yeti I could have painted his tongue. That would help break his face up from one colour.  Their bases I added baking powder as snow. This hopefully makes them look a bit wintery 

Overall I am happy with them and can't wait to play them.

The Road ahead 2024 (Update)

 Just flicking through my blog and saw my post about plans for 2024 ( Check it out here). So I thought I would add an update!

40k 

Imperial Guard has stayed the same apart from one unit that will be Tempest Scions. Not been tempted by the jump pack ones .... Yet. With the new codes expected in the first or second part of next year it's a kind of just wait and see now.

My Lion Warriors have been reinforced! Assault intercessors acquired and all painted up along with some other character options as well oh and a new dreadnought on the painting table. So these are going strong. 

Bolt Action

Got the 3rd edition rulebook still not managed to fully read through it so haven't played a game yet but I did buy a 25pdr and a centaur tank for my British (ooo haven't done a blog post about them!!) so plodding along nicely. 

Last Days 

Still not played this. Thought it might be a good idea to try with the kids one school holiday but we shall see. 

A Space ship game

I played battlefleet Gothic! An oldy but a goody. Had a great time 

Starship Trooper Project

Well I've gone from 15mm to 6mm!! I even have actual models. I do need more bug models at the moment. The troopers have got to be outnumbered it's the only true way. 

Star grave 

I still wanna try this maybe next year . I might start actively planning an idea for 2 crews and see what's out there. 

Anything Else

Gaslands and Rumble slam are fine, I'll play them if a game opportunity appears but don't need anything adding to them I don't think.
