Christmas Reinforcements!

Well my next venture into my parent's bank account has proved very handy, but it's only because I convinced them to spend £250 to gain free postage!

I wanted to add a Caestus Assault Ram to my collection, and that was the fist thing that I placed in the basket, expect countless posts about this bastard kit (from what I've found on YouTube) later on. I also wanted to add some Cataphratii Terminators to my army, but when my parents went to place the order they were out of stock... enter thoughtful mode. When the Deimos Pattern Predator Infernus was first released my first response was that I wanted at least on of these beauties in my army at one stage, so with the Cataphractii's out of stock, I decided to throw in a unit of 3 of these, just because they fit the flaming fluff of the Salamanders. With £11 pounds to spend to gain free shipping, I was stuck with what to do, all my infantry weapon sets are complete, all my characters are built at the moment, so there was nothing that I desperately needed. Fluff wise my Contemptor Dreadnought Talon aren't the best, so I thought it would be appropriate to have the option to have two multi-melta's within the talon.

Order arrived yesterday, and I cannot help but want to open to box and start to dry fit all the kits together. I'm going to magnetize the multi-melta's for the dreadnoughts, and see if I can magnetize the predator turrets for added variety, but I'm presuming it won't be possible though... as for the ram, this will not be my priority over the next couple of months, at least I'm not planning for it to be, as the predator's will be as they will give me a gaming style that I've never played before - Tank Squadron.

Pictures of the building process' will appear after Christmas, and I'll try and put up some images of everything I've got so far before Christmas, but there are no promises!


Daniel: You're an evil git and I hate you. Luckily I have planned for this eventuality....
I shall also try to do a whole army post before Christmas, just the assault squad to make now.
