Agggghh blog wont work

My blog keeps not working so I havn't posted for a week but hey things happen and I will be posting more regularly now.

Painting: done ( nearly )

another little post just to say that I have painted everything in my army except a rhino.

Necrons vs marines, Marines vs gaurd

Hi guys this is just a little post to tell you that I have played the next two games in the Archon campain and won against the gaurd but drew against the Necrons.

The scoring stands like this:

Marines: played 3 won 2 drew 1 Lost 0

Necrons: played 1 won 0 drew 1 lost0
gaurd: played 2 won 0 drew 0 lost 2

White Dwarf: early

I got white dwarf early it was on the 15th I guess that makes up for it coming on the 30th last time. have any one else got it early let me know.

my army: Rhino

Just letting you know I went down to GW yesterday and bought a new rhino their was also a mini five- hundred point tourny so I played with my termi chaplain 5 termies and 10 marines I only played 2 games and they both were against chaos, I lost both games but one was against the best player their; that lash of submission is nasty on a deamon prince.

Painting: assault squad

I've finished painting my assault squad and here it is.

sorry about the pic quality but you get the impression.

My army: vangaurd vets ( scratch built )

News: Bell of Lost Souls, marine update

Thanks to bell of lost soles we have this amazing piece of work

In the words of Blade Runner's Roy Batty "I've seen things you people wouldn't believe". Here are a short list of things I've seen regarding the upcoming Marine codex:
Marines: 16pts a pop. ~Goodbye 15 pts, it was great knowing you for all these years!

Vanguard Veterans may not assault the turn they deepstrike if an IC is attached. If they decide to do the charge they also cannot run or shoot. ~You better work on your hoping skills, or have a locator beacon close by!

Sternguard Veterans are going to be popular. Their ammo is pretty much custom designed to take out Orks (Dragonfire), Monstrous creatures (Hellfire), Tau/Aspect Warriors (Kraken) and MEQs (Vengeance). ~They are pricy, but a single squad in good cover could really achieve great things.

The Terminator Cyclone missile launcher is indeed a 2-shot weapon in either its krak or frag mode ~Expect to see some of these reappearing from dusty shelves onto the tabletop.

The Ironclad dreadnought is a nasty piece of work. AV:13/13/10, deadly in assault, can run and mount not one but two hunter-killer missiles (and the potential for two heavy flamers). ~Add a drop-pod and you have an instant party!

Scouts + Techmarines = Poorman's Eldar pathfinders. ~Its possible to get 2+ cover saves with this combo!

Scout Bike Squads are one the true standouts of the codex. These go from zero to hero. Three Astartes Grenade launchers combined with outflanking will be a real problem for enemy vehicles. ~Everyone will want a squad. Can you put a price on 1001 tricks up your sleeve?

Razorbacks: Four words... "twin-linked assault cannon" ~I can't believe it but its in there.

Land Raiders: Its true... Power of the Machine Spirit fires at full BS:4! ~Expect to see lots of Land Raiders forging ahead at full speed popping off single sponsons in your face.~So much more to talk about, but the codex is just beautiful.

Thick, really thick and full of lavish color plates. It almost feels like 2 codices. I am impressed! First Impressions are that Marines will finally live up to their fluff. Aggressive, lethal, mobile, but woefully outnumbered. As the horde armies continue to drop in per-man cost, marine players should get used to operating in a heavily outnumbered way against almost any enemy army.

Polls: what shall I add to my army.

Hi guys thanks to every one who voted on my poll it seems I will get alot of the stuff on their because I have a birthday coming up so see ya

Off Topic: not much

I haven't had much time lately because I started back at school recently, my assault squad is coming along nicely and I will post about it soon I have read white dwarf and have done a bit of painting.

Painting: Assaulters half built.

I build and paint at the same time, as I build a body I paint it. You end up with the model being a little bit more detailed because you can get anywhere.
Any way I started building/ painting my assault squad and their coming along nicely, my men could do with a little bit of a special job so I'm taking more care than I usually do .

Just on the section at the top do any of you do any weird things with your painting let me know?
