You read that right, I have not only completed my April Goal for my army, but I have completed the entire 1850 point army. Now, this does not mean I am done, I am still painting up Daemons, but I have painted 1850+ points of Daemons since January. First we will start with a look of my April Commitment and then the whole army. Read more »

Once again, Matt and I were down at Warhammer World this weekend for the 40K Battle Brothers (which replaced GW’s doubles events). After toying with taking a Tau/GK list, we tested it out against Graham and Andy from Claws and Fists and decided that it wasn’t as good as we thought. Therefore, we returned to our old faithful Titanic Fenrisians (GK/SW) with the following list: 1500pts of Titanic Fenrisians Coteaz 10-man Strike Squad (Psybolt, 2 Psycannons) 2 x 3 Warrior Acolytes 1 x 4 Warrior Acolyes Nemesis Dreadknight (Teleporter, Heavy Incinerator, Greatsword) Nemesis Dreadknight (Teleporter, Heavy Incinerator) Wolf Priest (Saga of the Hunter, Plasma Pistol) Rune Priest (Runic Armour, Jaws, Lightning) 10 Grey Hunters (Plasma, Melta, Wulfen, Standard) 9 Grey Hunters (Melta, Wulfen, Standard) in a drop pod Not a huge difference from the previous incarnations of our doubles army. The thunderwolves are gone sadly but they’re replaced by a Rune Priest and the Purifiers are swapped for a full strength Strike Squad. As you can see, some lists would be no problem for us whilst others, particularly flyers, would be almost impossible for us to beat. Flyers don't bother us too much though as they're mostly geared up for

Hello all, Although I was fairly productive last week I haven’t made a lot of progress on the tanks.
Had an interesting conversation last night at the Vine Inn Gaming Club; was about conversion models for existing models i.e Carnifex-Tervigon conversion. Generally in tournaments you need the actual model so no proxies or counts as etc and if an actual model doesn’t exist i.e Tyranid Harpy then conversions are fine as long as they are suitable representation. Now what happens when an existing model that wasn’t previously released i.e Tervigon and people did a crap load of conversions i.e from Carnifex model? The Tervigon model has been out over a year now and is more than enough time for people to replace their conversions if they want to. There’s some some big differences between the Tervigon model and Carnifex model, one of those differences is the sheer size of the model (Tervigon is as high as a Trygon’s chin) and comes on a large oval base. I guess you could put the conversion on the correct base though still you have the size difference. Personally I think if the model exists then no conversions should be allowed in tournaments, there’s just too much varying factors and you can see allowing conversions of existing models is just like opening a can of worms. What are your thoughts on conversions for existing models when being used in tournaments?
