Swinging the Lead: Year in Review


Blimey, that was a quick year. Yet so much happened! Was this really the same year that the Age of Sigmar Snakewomen released? And Adeptus Titanicus? And Kill Team? And... and... and... Too much!

But how did I fare?

The Tally of 2018

And we're finally done with 2018. An experience not dissimilar to riding on that bus at the end of The Italian Job.

And this is the update to "Project: Micawber", let's all say it together...

"Annual leadpile twenty terminators, annual painting nineteen terminators nineteen marines and a cultist, result: stagnation.

Diorama: I Am Norman

It's a familiar tale: a confrontation in the midst of a great battle, an end-level evil boss, a plucky protagonist.

"I Am No Man": a Warhammer 40k diorama between a Black Legion Chaos Lord and a space marine of the Thirteenth.

How will it all end?

Magnus the Red? My 'Gaunts Sneer: Tyranids vs Thousand Sons

It's late in the year. But what better stocking filler than one last chance to try and beat a Daemon Primarch? 

Warhammer 40k battle report - Chapter Approved 2018 - Maelstrom of War - Tactical Cascade - 1750 points - Thousand Sons vs Tyranids.

Yes, it's time for a final Skype rumble with Kraken (bold), 

and I, Stylus, as plain as can be

as we pitch our respective forces against each other, freshly armed with the new rules update from Chapter Approved 2018!

Magnus with your Mega-Smite
Won't you pull my sleigh tonight?
