First of Many

Well I am finally going to get my lazy butt into gear and post a few army lists that I have come up with. I will start with my 40K armies and go into Fantasy as well. Also next week expect a lot of new pictures and discussion on historical figures in 28mm and 1:72 plus lots of pictures! So without further adieu I present my attempt at a more competitive style of list for my favorite (and very first) army, the Dark Angels

Warhammer 40,000 25th Anniversary Model (minus head)

In all the headless glory

Sad Day

So I recently purchased the Warhammer 40,000 25th anniversary model. I beautiful model sculpted in the new Fine Cast range. I was really looking forward to painting this thing when low and behold, a defect!The head as you can see is off center! After recovering from my disappointment and sorrow I took these pictures and sent an email to Games Workshop customer service and I hope to hear back from them soon. I will upload pictures of the model unpainted and minus the head to show off just how awesome it is

Adding to Technorati

Hi folks just a quick update. I am attempting to get listing on the site Technorati so here is my claim token number for them to check. RDMMR8E9V9YP

New Additions to the Site

Ok so I just added a links section to the site. I included the gaming sites I tend to frequent as well as my friend Madival's blog that I am now a contributor to (and he will be on here soon as well). To give you a break down I have included the main Games Workshop pages including Forge World and The Black Library (for those interested in the fiction of Games Workshop universes) as well as the Warhammer Historical page. The Warhammer Historical systems are an excellent rules set for 28mm war gaming in a variety of time periods (more on this in the near future). I also included an excellent site called Plastic Toy Soldier Review. They have excellent reviews of many products in the 1:72  scale from many different manufacturers. Finally I included a link to the excellent company Warlord Games. They offer a range of 28mm historical models and accessories of their own manufacture as well as products from a host of other companies. I encourage everyone to give these sites a visit and feel free to comment on what you discover! 

Ok so I have to apologize for not getting a video up from my game Friday. My friend forgot to bring the camera (d'oh!). I will get my list up and my friend's list up and provide some info on how the game went and some of my thoughts. Also for any complaints about the lack of video please rage post over at my friend Madival's blog (see link) as he was my opponent and the dude who owns the camera http://lesserofallevils.blogspot.com/

Hey folks just a brief post for the moment. I will be playing a game of 40k with a friend today over at our local Hobby Town and I will likely be posting a video battle report of it in the near future. It is going to be chaos space marines (me) vs necrons so I don't anticipate good things to happen for me.
