All quiet on the western front?




It’s been quiet on the blog since the GR invitational tourney but its actually been quite the opposite here in our gaming world.

Well firstly we heard about the closure of my favourite gaming haunt, this led to our many discussions about what to do etc, we haven’t an answer yet. 

Because we have built up a nice little community of regulars who are both fanatical about wargaming and modelling, we really want to keep the community going.

Also we had a mad run to stock up on mini’s and supplies in the said shop’s closing down sales.
Whole shelves cleared in a few days! Ray in his earlier post, obviously helped to clear the shelf too!

We even had a chance to celebrate the opening of a cool bakery in the Kg Bahru. Lots of yummy cakes! Thanks Swarmlord and JE!

Something that got me excited is the announcement of the 1500point ‘Last March of the Titans Tourney', I really want to give it a good run.

I decided to give myself a few goals of
1.)    Putting together a decently competitive ork army
2.)    Play competently (heh)
3.)    Fully paint every one of them green skins..

Grey? tide..



Tall order? Miracles happen in Ork-tober! We’ll find out. 4 weeks left to the 1500pt battle …


Here's the new banner for the all up coming Orky posts!
 

Last but not least, heres a photo by special request..  =)

Breaking News: Age of Sigmar Leaks

Before I returned to 40k, I was dabbling with my Orcs and Goblins for quite awhile. Age of Sigmar is the new Fantasy and there are obviously changes coming and I welcome it. I guess everyone is excited about the release and here are some amazing leaks. 


GW really made it simpler

Formations for Fantasy. I like it already! 

Legiones Custodes?

Meoew!


FOR SANGUI....


I hope 3D scenery comes back into play instead of those 2D cutouts




It's hammer time!

New Space Marine Sprue Leaks - ABO Exclusive

Kinda glad I held out from getting the old Assault Squad. Although I expect prices to go up, these new Space Marines are certainly much nicer. Enjoy the pics boyz!

Ultramarines getting their own upgrade sprue

New Assault Marines on elevated bases

Dark Angels get their own upgrade sprue too

I wonder if all major Chapters will get an upgrade sprue akin to the ones above. It would sell like HOTCAKES

Breaking News: Mars Adeptus Mechanicus Spotted

Here are some leaks! Sure look like they have been influenced quite a bit by the current Imperial Guard line especially the limbs. Enjoy! 






Its a walker with 4 armoured mechanical spider legs. The crew compartment is large metal box angled in the front. There is a small robotic arm in the front with tools and drills on the appendage. The visor for the drivers inside is a slit with optical lenses on the the left hand side of the opening. The Eradication Beamer is big, and looks like a giant conversion beamer, up top there is a gunner with a heavy stubber. I don't know the optional guns, but there are a couple. One that looks like a long barreled autocannon, but has some sort of array attached to it. None of the weapon options look like standard Imperial Weapons.

Adeptus Mechanicus Skitarii

box contains 10 new plastic models. They can be made up as either Skitarii Vanguard, or Skitarii Rangers. Both units contain special and close combat weapon options. 

Adeptus Mechanicus Ironstrider 

Said to the backbone of the Adeptus Mechanicus Scout forces. It's a dual kit allowing you to make either the Ironstrider Ballistarius -long ranged heavy weapon walker, or the Sydonian Dragoon which is a close combat version. 

It comes with a riptide size base and stand just as tall as the Riptide or an Imperial Knight. 

Gun options- 
Replace the Eradication Beamer with 
-Twin linked heavy phosphor blaster 
-Neutron Laser and Cognis Heavy Stubber 
-Icarus Array 

Admech Skitarii - 10 minis can be built as Rangers or Vanguard. €31 

Admech Ironstrider €38 

Weapons 
the plasma pistol described in your previous article is not an odd looking plasma pistol. its an arc pistol. arc weapons will be available for the skitarii in both pistol and rifle. the arc rifle is rapid fire with haywire. rifle and pistol both are s6 ap5. 
Cognis Weapons are normal weapons with the Cognis attached to it, like Cognis Lascannon. They simply use a BS 2 when firing snap shots because of an awakened machine spirit. 
Burst Pistol rules allow for 5 shots to be fired instead of just a single one. 

Galvanic Rifle looks like an ornate flintlock rifle with a canister on the side. R30", rapid fire, S4. 

Onager Dunewalkera heavy choice walker called a Onager Dunewalker will be part of the skitarii. they are an armor 12 walker that comes with overlapping forcefields that give an invulnerable save. each additional walker in the squad increases the save by 1. they come with a conversion beamer type weapon that is more powerful up close and disperses to a large but weaker blast at longer range. squadrons up to 3. 

Dragoon WalkerThere is also a Dragoon which looks to be a dual kit with a rider on top of a bipedal machine. It has legs similar to the IG sentinels, but has a grafted human in the center of the machine. I am not as fluent in the background with the skitarii as I would like to comment much more. 

Ive seen a walker bearing the ad mech symbols on it. The walker has a horizontal pilot hooked up to the machine with optical lenses for the pilots sight, and little mechanical grabbers that extend out from the pilots hands. There is a gunner on top in red robes and odd looking armor that reminds me of the tempestus armor except for larger eye lenses. The walker has sentinel legs, and the weapon up top is a ornate twin-linked lascannon.
