Hive City 5-0

 

Cop that, lead pile. 

Own Goaliath

 The completionist clock ticks one minute closer to midnight.

Wasted

 Something was missing. 

Enhanced Men vs Enhanced Machines: Ultramarines vs Chaos Space Marines

It's been a while since Kraken and I played a game of 40k but I, Pootle, had a spare evening and threw down the gauntlet...

Knockramunda Semifinal: Corpse Grinder Cult vs Cawdor

Jarri, I'm more jittery than a juve on flects! 

It might just be our shared metabolism, Blaargh, but I feel the tension too. It's the second and final semi-final night, Hivers, and we're out in the wastes!

Sandcastle: Emperor's Children vs Alpha Legion

As promised, it's a trial run for Kas's new army. Chaos on all sides, who is the most chaotic?

Marvel Crisis Protocol event - Maximum Shenanigans

 I'm taking MCP out of the house and on the road!

Kakophoning it in

 

It's the last batch!

Falling With Style

 

Random conversion for you today; very silly but tremendous fun and I'm really pleased with how it's turned out.

What's That Noise?

I think you all know the answer to this question. 

KnockRat SemiFinal: Escher vs Chaos Helot Cults

Ahey heidi-halloooo, Hivers! You're wickedly welcome to the very first Semi-Final - and we're down on the farm!

Floosy Flawless

 

Onwards, to victory!

The Bad Guys Too

 More X-villains!

Hydra Ingenuity

It doesn't shoot, but you can certainly throw it around.

As a Matter of Infractor

 That Emperor - always having more children. 

KnockRat Quarter Final: Slave Ogryns vs Cawdor

 ...which is why you need to remove the poison glands before you stew it, otherwise you end up paralysed. 

Sorry to interrupt you there, Granny Bilgeputter, and thanks for keeping the listeners entertained during that short hiatus. But we're back, live at tonight's arena for the final KnockRat quarter-final!  

I Tormentor Do It

 Stuff to paint!

The Mild Robot

Back in the 1960s, if AI wanted to destroy the world, it created giant robots to stomp around. 

In those days, we had standards.

Paint The Town Red

Some more characters for Crisis Protocol coming up, and I seem to have picked a colour scheme with these guys.

Eldar you kidding me?

 

More old lead today: Eldar this time! 

Bring out yer lead

 

Q: How long can you keep old lead before repainting it?

Squat's that coming out from under the hill?

 

I never collected Squats back in my RT days, but always loved them...

What's that coming over the hill?

 

This is definitely a *proper* monster!

KnockRat Quarter Final: Goliaths vs Chaos Helot Cult

 My eyes! What's happening to my eyes? They burn!

Calm down, Blaargh - it's just the radioactive glare of dead skies. Yes, we're outside! Welcome to the ash wastes, violence fans, for a very special quarter final match in this, the KnockRat tournament. 

The Kids Are Alright

Greetings, fellow young persons!

EXT: Bridge

 

It's in downtown Manhattan and I'd like to sell it to you.

KnockRat Quarter Final: Corpse Grinders vs Genestealer Cult

 

Ancient terran legends told of a mechanical saviour, one who theorised time travel was possible in his own lifetime and leaped into a primitive quantum portal to save mankind. Rejected by the very folk he came to save, they murdered him for crimes he didn't commit. But as he himself foretold, death alone would not hold him - so if his disciples had a problem, if they could find him, and if they could wait three days, he'd be back. 

Blaargh, name that prehistorical religious icon!

EXT: Crossroads

 

I believe I'm sinking down.

EXT: Storage Tanks

 
I don't need any more scenery. Here is some more scenery. 

KnockRat Quarter Final: Escher vs Outcasts

 

There it is, Blaargh, our first glimpse of the fabled KnockRat Trophy!

Is that a real ersatzium crystal, Jarri?

It certainly is - fifteen credits' worth of the finest plastite gemstone available at the trading post!

Carnage In The Old World: Orcs & Goblins vs Empire

This one was absolutely crazy...

A 3,439pt clash of Empire vs Orcs & Goblins in the Old World.

EXT: Forgotten Highway

Hit the road.

Leave No Goblin Behind

They may do nothing - but they cost nothing!

Sideboards

 A swift assortment of freebies and rewards!

KnockRat Qualifier: Goliaths vs Venators

And we're back! 

Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water!

Nobody thought that, Blaargh, and it's certainly not water - this is Necromunda! Welcome back, violence fans, it's been a long spring. The annual carnibou migration is behind us now, and with our stadium finally free of flesh-eating mutant deer, it's time for some summer fun with our summer guns. I'm Jarribix Clabbs, the scab with the gab, and with me as ever is Blaargh the Garrulous Goitre. What are we here for tonight, Blaargh?

N-N-N-KnockRat!

EXT: Junkyard

 Still on the cheap resin train.

INT: Crew Quarters

 
More cheap resin prints!

NAIS-DAKKA 100: Nurgle Daemons vs Orks

It's been a while since we've published a 40k batrep on the blog, but Kraken and I (Pootle) are back to write up the story of a game we've just played: Nurgle Daemons taking on Orks.

Red God's Choice

Spring had been bad. Talair knew the red priest wouldn’t be pleased at what he was bringing him, but it wasn’t like there was an option. 

EXT: Ash Wastes

 What can I say? There's always room in my heart for more terrain. Just not on the shelves. 

A Little Something X-Tra

I've getting ever-closer to actually starting my X-Men...

I Can't Believe It's Not Mutants

I've been filling out my Brotherhood of Mutants affiliation with some larger models, who don't really fit the definition of the word...

Parasite for Sore Eyes

When he wounds, he does flatworm three damage.

O Brotherhood, Where Art Thou?

 As promised, I begin my foray into the mutants of Crisis Protocol.

Naturally, I start with the bad guys.

Black Orc Done

I know I've made a big deal about long-lasting projects, but I started this one when the Millennium Bug was a thing... 

Onwards to the future!

Orlock be a Lady Tonight

 Bit late on this one!

Voulez-vous Escher Avec Moi?

 Ce soir?

Cherchez le goblin: Bretonnia vs Orcs & Goblins

It's time for another round of Joust A Minute!

A 3,000pt clash of Bretonnia vs Orcs & Goblins in the Old World.

Malstrainuous Links

 

Unexpected horrors!

Advansaar Party

 Necromunda! Because why wouldn't you?

KnockRat Qualifier: Spyrer Hunting Team vs Slave Ogryns - Fight!

Blaargh here, KnockRatters! Jarri's out this week, he caught the hyperleprosy that's been doing the rounds. Doc says he'll have him right as rain soon as he gets creds, so scabbedy-roo, I've bet all our savings on tonight's match!
