Lesions of Chaos: Glottkin vs Kairos

After a successful game against Kraken, and fueled by sheer laziness on my part (and not having a wife or child to disrupt) I left the battle-board on the kitchen table and arranged for another game on Sunday. Full endtimes rules again and "fun" lists. This time I would be building both sides and Reinbowarrior would be back to choose one.

The Armies

I built 4 lists, and Reinbow chose Glottkin and so for the second time in two days I was going to be facing the blessed son of Nurgle.

Given we were playing full dirty magic there is no way I was not going to give a Kairos a go... A level 4 caster who knows 72 spells! Eat that Loremaster of Hoeth and your 56 spells!

The Glottkin list had two beasts for re-directors, Glottkin as a distraction, and a deathstar of a warrior horde including a shadow sorcerer, Festus and a wargor. The warriors all had halberds, and the beast banner on the gor BSB buffed their strength. 35 ws5, i5, s6 attacks (plus additional from heroes) can not be sniffed at.

Kairos on the other hand, was far more spread out. 2 minimum size unit of forsaken, 2 units of fast cavalry marauder horseman, 2 skull cannons, a chimera, Kairos and a Tzeentchian combat Lord on a disk.

EXT: A Field

Having painted my recent Citadel Wood, I got all inspired by the potential for swapouts. Using some tinfoil to line the tree slots, I reached for the modelling concrete...

...and made Swamps!

And a hello again from Kas

Shop Floor

In a bit of a break from my usual routine of displaying what I've painted this week, I thought I'd give you a little look at where the magic happens.

Actual magic not portrayed.

My rough and ready paint station (which gives the rough and ready results I'm known for) is some newspaper on the kitchen table, an old christmas biscuit tin full of paints and a spice jar of water whose lid is also my palette. No expense spent, I assure you.

All Present and Correct

Many happy returns of the day to General Kas! Here, have a unit of painted Cold One Knights. It's on the house.

These are very nice models, I'd say. Elegant and mean in one package, and it's going to be very hard to get through this whole article without writing some kind of Clever Girl joke. They are, however, not the best Dinosaur Riders in the world.

When I grow up, I'm going to be Dr McNinja. Fact.

Kasfunatu's Cochineal Corsairs

Avast!

'Tis indeed a return to a past unit, mateys, with a second swaggering set of sabre-slinging swashbucklers! Now that the crew is all aboard, mayhap they can wreak some havoc on the high seas. Or, you know, a tabletop somewhere. Probably depicting a field. In a game with no boats. 

The Year of the Rat

It looks like the next instalment of End Times the will be featuring the most hated rat of them all...

Eahhhhhh!

Sorry, the second-most hated rat: Thanquol!

Yes, as promised, it's the Witch Elves.
