Happy Halloween!

Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay session 3

We started off by talking to Ilse, the roadwarden, who we met at Rudi's decoration ceremony. She invited us over at a beer at the Exploding Pig. Seems legit.

Painting a Venomcrawler

The final element of the Shadowspear set to be painted without any major changes.

Adding a LED light to a Venomcrawler (by making a huge base)

Unlike the Astra Militarum tanks, this model does not have a large and accessible interior to hide the inner workings. Time to get creative! I learnt a lot here, the process was unwieldy, I'll do something else for my following project.

Prepare a circuit with LEDs

 

Word Bearers vs Yellow Scars, 22.10.2022

I had the honor of facing the Yellow Scars (White Scars... but yellow) during their first outing in Warzone Nephilim. This meant that the game took even longer than usual, as the mission, the secondaries, the CP stuff etc. was new to the Space Marines. Not to mention my entire army. But alas, we confronted each other in this scenario of Abandoned Sanctuaries.

The Scars deployed heavy on their left with a Redemptor and the Outriders, so I countered with my daemon engines, Rubrics, Helbrute and Bikers.

Painting a Dark Apostle in Word Bearers colors

After a copious amount of time in the box, here's a Dark Apostle to lead my new and improved Word Bearers.

Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay

This session is due to the courtesy of one of the new MAGUS members, who wanted to try out DM'ing the system. Note that this a bit of a spin on a published adventure with pre-made characters. The party consisted of most of the MAGUS team, taking on the roles of Else, the witch hunter (me); Ferdinand, the amethyst wizard; Molli, the halfling; Salundra, the noble; Gunnar, the trollslayer; and Amris, the elf merchant.

Painting Chaingun Havocs

After the conversion, paint them up!

Converting Havocs using Kromlech miniguns

Kromlech has some really nice bits, let's test these Chaos Legionary Reaper Miniguns using the old Chaos Space Marines plastic kit.

Dungeon of the Mad Mage: Into the swamp

We started off by going above ground to sell our loot. Time passed so I anxiously waited for the Wand of Lightning Bolts I ordered. Well, tough luck. The caravan was robbed. We went to investigate, only to find that the robbers used high level magic to teleport to an exact ambush location. I set the Zhentarim to work, and we went down to the next level of the dungeon.

Painting converted Havocs

More Word Bearers on the production line! This time, the converted/fixed up eBay marines.

Edit. The title is a lie, one guy is actually a Legionary on a 32mm base.

Converting/fixing eBay marines into Chaos Havocs

I dug out a bunch of old eBay marines and started working on updating them.

Word Bearers vs Custodes, 29.09.2022

The Word Bearers invade Imperial space once again in this mission of Recover the Relics.

I am not one to usually blame the dice, but let's call this game 'When the Custodes couldn't fail a 4+'.

September review and October goals

September was... accomplished as far as real-life goals go, but hobbying suffered accordingly. I barely painted anything.

At least the gaming side was great, with two games of Warhammer, D&D and MAGUS. The Word Bearers suffer defeat after defeat, so I might retire them in favor of the daemons. However, I still have some WIP projects... we'll see. D&D is back and it's great, I love it once again. The MAGUS crew is still crawling their way through a dungeon, and they're now all out of health potions. Fun, fun, fun.

As for October... I'll be working on my Furry Force inspired Possessed. Yes, you read that correctly.
