the only constant is change

demons update!!!!!!


so iv finally  got a lord of change to lead my demons into battle goin full circle!!  the only difference  is belakor is out of retirement to give the deamons a hand its a great combo!!


the lord of change carries the book and is my warlord his job is 2 boost the screamers up and cast psychic scream on sumthin lol


belakor is their 2 cast invisibility on a unit and shrouding to give my DP/LOC a 2+ re-roll cover save


so the deamons are now technically all bought I need a new belakor model and maybe 2 on foot heralds of tzeentch for more dice and summoning power and fateweaver but well see on that 1 !


sit rep with painting these bad boys most of the drones are done now  and all the bases are done so ill be starting horrors soon

1 squad will be purple
1 squad will be blue

the demon princes will be purple blue and a mix of blue and purple


lord of change will be a full mixture of blue and purple

path of the laughing god

so harlequins are nearly upon us and at the moment I'm thinking they'll not be that gd simply bcoz from the book they have no solid anti tank at the min al we have seen so far is a av10 gun boat with str7 lance now I know that from playing DE  str8 lance is terrible so str7 is laughably terrible beyond belief.


but some thing has maybe pulled it back for the clowns 


firstly a 6 formations  mostly poo  except the first  that is 3 troops  3 death jesters 3 shadow seers  solitaire and some other stuff  this is the best as after turn 2 they get the old school fleet  run then charge  which makes them far faster than anything out their  as most units that are running aren't charging


this is also well worth adding to an eldar or dark eldar army for some CC punch if u wanted it also as u don't need a HQ  in the army this formation pretty much covers all the bases for the detachment as well


well have to wait and see wen it drops

necrons drop!!!!!!

iv got my necron codex and heres the low down !!!


set up of the dex back story etc is really nice lots of pictures and breaks down organisation its quite nice


but enough of that wats changed!!!


first thing the 2+ save is now a 1 per army
mind shackle scarabs now cause fear on a 3d6 ld
snap shots no longer effect tesla
wraiths are T5 beasts
annihilation barge is 30pts increased
imotek is a LOW
deathmarks only get 2+ to wound on the turn they DS and if they DS on opponents turn they have 2 shoot something that arrived from reserve
inv save cant carry over to a chariot which is gd!!


wat does this mean for my list ??? well here is a 1850 list


destroyer lord
nightmare shroud
warscythe
phase shifter


190 pts previous lord was 140pts with a 2+ warscythe and no inv save


destroyer lord
warscythe


troops
warriors x10 130pts still the same
warriors x10 130pts


ghost ark x2 210 (105 each  down by 10pts)


FA
wraiths x6 240pts  up by 5ppm
coils x6 18pts down by 7ppm
x2 units

HS
annihilation barge 120 up by 30pts
x3


this will get changed as I want 2 squeeze in 2 night scythes

necron stuff and painting

so iv got my codex  pre ordered jus needs collecting  cant wait soon my pretty soon!!


so cool  stuff that's back gaus now does  auto wounds on 6's as well as glances  which is awesome


the old CTANS are back  night bringer and deceiver  which is awesome


inv saves with chariots has finally been clarified and nerfed!!!


whip coils are now +3 inv which makes them worse than they were but wraiths now get T5 and beasts and still ignore all terrain with re-rolls from fleet its awesome  so ill still be getting lots more of them


tesla was also fixed  on more  snap shots getting u more hits  it only works now if ur not snap shooting so flyers are now safe!


iv also bin hard at it painting my deamons the micro art bases are half way completed



 the nurgle deamons  them selves need the wood for the banners finishing and the teeth painting then the metal will be silver will be dry brushed a bronze colour and washed brown to make it look rusty


ill b looking to have these done in the next week or so then ill start some other units

necrontyr stuff

I recently bought another annihilation barge that means iv got 3 barges and 3 destroyer lords when I finally build up the last one.


having read the rumours that are floating round i'm mainly excited to see all these inbuilt formations for the units  as it maybe something that will take effect with future books. (excited for deamons I want flamers to be awesome again)


the other thing I'm looking foreward to is that night bringer and deceiver are back  as upgrades I think from wat iv read and so are transcendant's as well which are rumoured to be 10pts more than normal ctans which are roughly costed at a landraider not sure which variant but either way  transcendants will be mega cheap if the top 2 upgrades are 100 and 120 which makes them cheaper by 200 pts from escalation which is huge!!!!


I also need some more warriors to make more death marks and immortals then more wraiths lots more wraiths and their done!!

5k views!!!!!!

well  im still here and surprisingly  people are still reading wether u follow or it game in a google search than for reading my rantings etc etc




wat ive done 2day




wat are these!!!! its 30 plague bearers 9 plague riders and 3 heralds 


the top pic is a plague bearer  and herald - the idea for the paint scheme is to be darker the higher up it goes so the their all based with caliban green or army painter dark angel green


nurglings - moot green and biel tan wash
plague bearers - warpstone glow moot green biel tan
herald -warpstone glow beil tan


ill be following this for all other units  deamon  princes and above will be base coat and wash I think but I haven't decided yet I may make DP  like heralds


next ill do the detail guts then swords/banners etc so they'll be up in the next few days


n that's it  keep calm and praise chaos!!!

more dark edar musings

iv now got an 1850/2k list that im semi happy with and that is looking like it cud do well


wat ive changed - less flyers im now running  2 void ravens their easier to manage and the turn they come on they can easily kill a unit of power armoured jerks each!!  my new personal best is 36 wounds caused with shatter feild missiles oh yea!!!


im no longer running the real space raiders detachment for 2 reasons -  the first is I need the re-roll on warlord trait  I want strategic as that's the only table worth while lol - the next reason is I want to control the board more and go for objectives so having  obsec troops means I can do this a bit better


so this is my 2k list that ill slim down to 1850 if needs be
