1250pts

so I'm gearing up for a 1250pt tourney in January and this is what I've come up with.
literally just two troops and an HQ, this army is entirely on foot.

I'm hoping to use the special weapons team and the Colonels squad to counter attack anything that approaches, while the platoon blobs on a home objective and uses the autocannons to thin the enemies ranks. the melta-guns provide an incentive for the enemy to stay away with their transports and finally the penal squad will hopefully sneak in on a board edge and cause trouble or contest/capture objectives.

not the strongest build by any measure but with 70+ bodies 13 las-cannons 4 autocannons 5 meltas and 12 power weapon attacks from the blob it should prove a headache for any list.

Happy Christmas



Down in the city of angels for the holidays and I managed to get a few games in at the local games workshop store.

first game went fairly bad for me against Grey Knights with me giving to much attention to his assassins and allowing my battle line to be stretched thin for his assaults.

My second game went much more in my favor. I loaded a special weapons team armed with 2 grenade launchers and a demolition charge into a vendetta and between the two units managed to destroy a land raider and kill 6 space marines. This coupled with the rest of my guns saw my opponent surrender at the end of my second turn.

Happy Christmas to all.

Pictures of the 23rd

These pics were all taken on my phone which should explain the quality.

They are from various games I have played in the last year or so.

Here it goes...

So with exams all finished for the semester I have decided it is time to get started building my regiment.

My plan is to start from the top down and build my regimental command.
I doubt that I will be using them in any games so I may build them as a Diorama.
we'll have to see how squirrelly I feel over the holidays.

I'll post pictures as soon as I have them.

Planetfall

The forest was silent it's natural inhabitants knowing better than to reveal their location to the Orks moving between the trees. The Orks crashed thru the underbrush their target drawing closer. Breaking from the treeline into the clearing a cry of Waaaaaagh erupted as the Orks charged the thin line of men in red coats.

from across the clearing a their call was answered in kind "Praetorian 23rd! First rank, Fire! Secound Rank, Fire!
