Space Wolves commanders (I hope!)

I have a Space Wolves army without any leaders, so if I haven't got anything to post here by Wednesday, I'm in trouble...

Ahah! You're in trouble anyway. Infiltrating this post to hunt down your brand new leaders, it's me, Kraken!

The Talented Mrs Stylus

And in case you were wondering how close the wire my WoffBoot XIII army is getting, I've had to outsource the painting!

And so here is the squad Mrs Stylus painted.

Air Wolves

Easter Monday! And if you're anything like 10 year old Stylus, you'll spend the day watching Sinbad movies and eating a metric tonne of chocolate eggs.

Rounding off my terrain season (thank the gods!), here's a full set of pics of the stuff from TTCombat that I've done.

What Dies Beneath: Imperium vs Tyranids

A narrative battle report for Warhammer 40,000. Space Marines, Tempestus Scions and Inquisition vs Tyranids.

Pict images flickered over the antique monitors. 

"The strike team has entered the complex," intoned the data-serf. "Watching their progress."

"Keep me updated," replied its master. He stared into the screens, their light reflecting from the lens of his bionic eye. 

"What are you thinking, Lord?" asked his adjutant, Ketch. 

"That they don't have much time," the master said. "The upper levels are still infested. It's going to be difficult for them to reach the lower levels."

"Then their mission will fail?"

"Almost certainly, Ketch. The Imperium stands in grave peril. Their success or failure will determine the fates of millions of lives."

The two of them stared at the grainy images. White armoured Scions moved in tight fire teams down the claustrophobic corridors on one monitor. Another showed hulking Crypt Angels marines, silently covering each other as they moved deeper into the tunnels. 

Ketch shivered. Those troops were the Emperor's finest. If they couldn't succeed, nobody could. His fingers reached out to clutch the silver amulet round his neck, a filigreed letter I emblazoned with a skull. His master seemed so calm. How?

"Have faith, Ketch," the Inquisitor said, stretching a hand out to calm his nervous acolyte. "His will is being done, never fear."

Ketch nodded, knowing the Inquisitor spoke the truth. And yet he still felt deeply afraid.

Time to find out what lurks in the Deep Research Station on Zamaroon!



It's the last part of the campaign, and it's a special narrative mission to finish on. What will Badger and his troops discover?

I've been meaning to do this for a while. Without further ado - the finished Jungle Terrain.

Clearing the Blacklog


Just a couple of weeks until the annual Woffboot Tourney. Which means I've got two weeks to concentrate on formulating a winning list, which means no distractions. Which means clear the leadpile.

Terrain month has nearly let up! I can almost see the finish line, and it has yellow and black warning stripes.

A Hard Rain's Gonna Fall: Tyranids vs Imperium


In the desperate last moments of the Zamaroon Campaign, the Imperium flings an army of its finest troops into the seething teeth of a Tyranid nest. Can they wrest the Research Compound from the vicious remnants of the xenos within? Or will they perish without?



Let's see!
