So I met up last night and we showcased our small armies... My small Black Legionish army has a chaos terminator lord and two 10 man Chaos Space Marine squads...

He is playing Eldar and he had a few squads and was working on a wraithlord (I think I really don't know Eldar that well) and a seer... He hadn't quite finished painting them up but they are turning out nice.

I am going to finish up the metal today and...

I have assembled my 5 man unit of Possessed Chaos Space marines. One thing that I have noticed is that the foot position is not really condusive to pinning. While it can be done I didn't think it would be as secure as I would like it...
