pt2 leaking

so this mainly covers units that I use and solo's  etc!



so lets get str8 into it with

annyssa ryvaal!
main card - unchanged some icons added but unsure wat they are now 8pts
skills still snap fire has gone (but may be an icon now)  prey unchanged  veteran leader changed to  +1 while in command range (same for warmonger chief) which is gd  and  5" reposition

my elylth list is 55pts  and its

2 ravagores
1 naga
striders x2 +ua
raptors

now converted to mk3  I get 5pts left over which means I can buy something else

leaky mc leakface!!

so some evil genius has  leaked the mk3 cards and gd job coz I was feeling a little down about legion but here are some awesome things that have happened!!

so I'm really mainly covering the casters n things I have or have on order lol

the latest caster is the first on the hit list abby2  daughter of everblight!!

from the main card the 2 main changes are wb5 increased to wb28 and lost abomination

skills card - conferred rage got a name change to alpha hunter but remains unchanged rules wise gained reposition 5inch

spells - fortify name changed to bracer lost teleport and gained hex bolt if hit cant do special attacks, power attacks or special actions

feat - slightly changed as range is now 2" for melee rather than gaining reach

so I'm happy that abby2 should still run the same really

next post units!!!

painting necrons!

god its bin ages since ive done anything to do with necrons and whats happened?

iv finally finished the spyder!




I'm super excited with how it turned out!

I'm now working on the character segment  starting with black then doing the colour so iv started working on the lords doing the green first iv done extra areas like the vents on the bodies to make them look more animated as I like the old fluff of the standard warriors being more like drones and the lords more animated so here are my lords all the green is near enough done!

hypothesis on wb/wj points!!

well  cryx  was  teased in the latest insider and if ur reading this before that why!!!!

http://privateerpress.com/community/privateer-insider/insider-04-28-2016

here it is!!  give it a whirl then come back!! ready good!

so  spoiler! denegrha is now wj28 rather than 5 to counter the increased costs off warjacks which is quite interesting bcoz this technically is x5 +3  so if they did this for every caster this is what you end up with

so casters that are WJ/WB
+3 are now +18
+4  are now +23
+5 are now +28
+6 are now +33
+7 are now +38


this is interesting especially with points bein roughly doubled  for beasts n jacks  the casters go from a difference of 4 to 20  which in itself is a free heavy/light jack or beast so with 75pts being the new staple

well have to hope that the  lower end casters get lots of spells n things to make them worth it as  18pts gets u a heavy n a light  and 38pts gets you 3 heavies and 1 light maybe more! depending on cost

but this will all be revealed when the rules drop in 6 weeks give or take!

cryx painted! nearly

so I had a lil go at the battle group half way roughly through the jacks and here is how they turned out!



the next bit to work on is the grey for the black areas then the eyes n other detail n they are done!  nice quick n easy. not sure if ill do the casters as dead looking or humans that control the dead have to do some research n find out

painting Update

so with mk3  ready to batter down the doors iv near enough finished my models for the journeyman league!!!

to day I finished 10 hex hunters
painted letters on the raptors bases
did arcs on the shepherds
and painted thaggys base
and re did arcs on all heavies

so I only have bayal the hound of everblight left 2 do

warmahordes mk3

well damn !!  mk3 the secret is out and OMG I had so many plays to reboot my legion and start a cryx force but that's out the window! 

so whats happened well  EVERYTHING is changing from premeasuring to points costs gargantuans new casters!!  and battle boxes  and this all kicks off in june!!

here are the battle boxes for cryx and legion






this also shows you all the juicy extras  like tokens n things that were previously an extra you had 2 buy separate  also  new casters are shown   ill also need 2 buy both faction decks so iv got the updated cards as well.

its all exciting and well see wat happens when it drops!
