Waking Dead

Its been a while since I’ve posted but I promise you I’ve got a very good excuse. OK, I haven’t, but you weren’t bothered anyway. I’ve been locked out of my site for a while now due to some problems with my anti-spam software, but now that’s all sorted I can get back to posting.

On the gaming front its the Warhammer 40,000 Doubles Tournament in Nottingham this weekend, at Warhammer World no less. Apparently this will be a lot better organised than Conflict North, and with it being over the course of the weekend, each game has a two hour time limit instead of one hour. Myself and Mark R will be taking a joint force of Witch Hunters and Tau, with some nasty little surprises in store for our opponents!

Away from Games Workshop I’ve actually took the plunge and bought the Warmachine and Hordes main rulebooks. Some of you may remember a post from a while back regarding Warmachine, but its taken me this long to actually go out and drop some money on it. I’ve decided that this year I’ll put together a small battlegroup and hopefully play a few games of something different.

Actually, speaking of the new year, I’ve made some plans already. First of all our gaming group has decided that since we concentrated so much on 40,000 last year, this year we’re going to go Fantasy. To this end I’ve decided to go ahead and paint my massive Empire army. I reckon it should take me a good six months, so we’ll see what happens after that. I’ll also probably assemble and paint my Khador battlegroup (once I’ve bought them, obv.) during the first half of the year.

One last thing: I picked up the Dark Angels limited edition army deal over Christmas, so that’s my new 40,000 force ready. Of course this means that I’m selling my Elysian Imperial Guard army – and lo and behold they’re up on eBay! A bargain if I do say so myself…
