Not the best all round list, but fairly fun to play with I hope. I'll add new things into this list as time goes by, and will most likely never field all this in one go, or at least not unless it's an Apocalypse game when I can add my Titan in as well!

More building!

My Sergeant upgrade packs arrived yesterday! I now have enough bits to build another 10 man tactical squad, a devastator squad, and all but the combi-flames for a seeker squad! Hopefully my missing dreadnaught parts will arrive this week so I can field a full contenptor dreadnaught talon in my next game, just because it will look awesome.

I've built stuff

Yes, Sunday was a good day for the VIIIth. I managed to build all 5 Destroyers and the 5 remaining tactical marines, which I think is a new record for me; 10 marines in about 9 hours. I'm really slow when it's put like that. But anyway, the bases have arrived so I can get on with building the rest of the FW order whenever I have the time.

Destroyers being awesome 

 
The other tacticals 

And with their friends

Better get on with painting them, whenever the weather here allows the use of the spraygun.
C+C's welcome as always

We are coming....

So this arrived today, so the army is almost all here now. Only issue being Secret Weapon haven't dispatched my bases yet so I'm limited to the 15 ones I have spare from my last order. So what to build first? It'll definitely be the other 5 tactical marines from the first squad but that still leaves 10 bases left. So I think it'll probably be either (1)the destroyers and another 5 man squad or (2)the other tactical squad. Either way, it works out as 10 bases used. Decisions, decisions...
This Emperor's Children Centurion is saddened at not having any men to command, that and not being a Night Lord.

So much resin.......

Expect updates over the next few days depending on how much I get done before the weekend and hopefully our next game.

Update Mk2

I've finally been paid so my order to FW is now in and soon to be on it's way here.
So soon to be awaiting work will be;

  • 35 marines in various armour marks, mainly Mk4
  • 10 assault marines
  • and weapons for this lot
Once this is combined with the stuff I already have, I'll have almost everything I need for the 2000 point list on here as well as the 2500 list I'm going to work to next, see below. There's also a Legion Contemptor, Librarian and Destroyer squad that currently appear nowhere but will be available for deployment as needed. Actually, there's a bit more probably going to be added over the next month or so, read Typhon and maybe Fellblade.
Now to get the Secret Weapon bases ordered for all this lot.
