Caballistic Skill: The Cabal vs Scions and Marines
Fortune favours the bold!
Hoping that battle fatigue would bring the Cabal (plus their evil overlord, Stylus) to their knees, I rounded on them firmly before they could recover from Weekend at Bernies. I, Kraken, brought the good old Tempestus Scions under Badger, along with a few Mantis Warriors.
Like an ageing crook in a heist movie, I, Stylus, will find out if The Cabal have one more job left in them...

Curbstomp: Alpha Legion vs Imperial Knights
Enough of the tales of Stylus's Victories! I, Kraken, now return with more familiar fare.
Having got enough of the Alpha Legion painted up that could put a trial force together, I reckoned the best thing to do would be punish them relentlessly for their very existence. So I challenged Kas's Imperial Knights to a scrap, for I am a glutton for punishment.
Feels like an age since picked up some 40k dice and was eager to get back in. I had not tried either mini, or daddy knights, and so was good with the suggestion.

Weekend at Burnie's 2 - Round 4 - Chaos Space Marines vs Iron Hands
It’s the second day of the event, and I have activated my secret weapon of not-getting-drunk-the-night before, which should put me ahead of the competition.
Perhaps it's in poor taste to mention getting ahead. My next fight is with Iron Hands.

Weekend at Burnie's 2 - Round 3 - Chaos Space Marines vs Ultramarines
Round 3 of the Battle for Nayala, and its time to go to blue alert!
I’m thrown into the deep end for this mission. Not only will I be facing Macragge’s finest, but my opponent will be the face (as opposed to the beard) of Moarhammer – none other than Brom!

Weekend at Burnie's 2 - Round 2 - Chaos Space Marines vs Raven Guard
Round 2 of the Battle for Nayala, and they've already sent the hit squad after me.
Something ominous from Deliverance is coming after me. I hope those aren't banjos I hear.

Weekend at Burnie's 2 - Round 1 - Chaos Space Marines vs Salamanders
The battle for Nayala starts here!
All back from my Weekend at Burnie's, I'll do my best to recount the tales. There were five battles in total, so hopefully my camera's memory and human memory will hold up.

Weekend At Burnie's 2 - This Time It's War
I'm off to another tournament, grizzled veteran that I am, this will be my second.
This is a follow-on from the very successful Weekend at Burnie's earlier this year. And, like any sequel, the body count is always bigger.

And Now ... The Cabal!
There is a reason why I'm popping out different-coloured space marines like a heretical Pez dispenser...

And Now ... The Purge!
It's not what you think!
Unless you think I've started another heretic astartes army, in which case, it's exactly what you think.

To kick off the next 1,000 posts, here's a Maelstrom of War battle between Pootle's Death Guard warband, The Second Law, and...
Kraken's new army of Mantis Warriors! Yes, an army I have no experience of using against the unbeaten Second Law. A New Challenger Approaches!
Their Scars aren't quite White,
But it's All-Skype Fight Night!
