Pure Terminators for 6th

Still trying to wrap my brain around 6th ed, I find writing lists helps a lot. Not saying pure TEQ makes for a good list necessarily, but I do really want to build this list.

Primary Detachment: Dark Angels
Belial, Master of the Deathwing
5 Death Wing Terminators, all Thunder Hammers and Storm Shields, Cyclone Missile Launcher
5 Death Wing Terminators, all Thunder Hammers and Storm Shields, Cyclone Missile Launcher
5 Death Wing Terminators, all Thunder Hammers and Storm Shields, Cyclone Missile Launcher
5 Death Wing Terminators, all Thunder Hammers and Storm Shields, Cyclone Missile Launcher

Secondary Detachment: Grey Knights
Ordo Whatever Inquisitor
10 Grey Knight Terminators, 2 Psycannons, 2 Nemesis Daemon Hammers, 8 Nemesis Force Halberds 
10 Grey Knight Terminators, 2 Psycannons, 2 Nemesis Daemon Hammers, 8 Nemesis Force Halberds

Combat Squad the GKT, now you have 40 scoring TEQ in eight units. This list really shouldn't be able to shoot another army off the board, it needs to mop up in CC. But, 20 TH/SS Termies, soooo yeah.

Converted Rifle Dreads

So, I have been working on some dreads for my Grey Knights list and my first two are ready for the table top! They are not finished mind you, still some detail work and ammo drums to be done.

Do you want a tutorial for these? I still have three more to go, so if enough people are interested I will make one for you guys.

The Coolest Thing That Does Not Exist! But Soon!

Seriously, go check this out. Now. Stop reading and go follow the link!

The intro video is not the best. But, a table top war game played with models assembled out of lego? Hell yes. Cheap rules, all in one pdf/book? Yup. Model aesthetics that you get to choose based on the rules? Aaaaaaaaaw yeah! No more of that "I take unit X because it looks cool" nonsense.

Did I mention it is mech based? It is mech based.

Now, I am not saying you should just drop whatever you are playing and get on this game. But when the rules are between 0-10$, and an army will cost you ~12$... well you can play this alongside your other war games with ease.

I know you have lego somewhere, and I know you want an excuse to play with it again.

A how to, by Jitsu: Plasticard Bases

Want custom bases for your whole army, but don't want to buy the sweet expensive ones online? Try this.

Left to right? Nope!


1) Trace the bases onto the non-textured side of the plasticard and cut them out very roughly from the main plasticard sheet.

2) Cut the card a bit more closely to the base outline, but not all the way.

3) Glue the plasticard on to the base.

4) Cut all the excess card off the base with your hobby knife. Go slowly, cut right up to the base and all the way around. It should all come off as one piece, but don't worry if it does not the first time.

5) You are done. Simple yeah?
