Space Marine StormTalon...

So I'm not quite sure what to make of the 'artists rendition' that Beasts of War released. Not only am I pissed off that this is what I waited two hours in a que of people for but, here it is. I'm not going to show the Ork flyer nor are we going to worry about the artists rendition of the Necron flyer (the only other two announced for the flyer release) but here is the Storm Talon.

There's something about this that... I like and I don't like... It's like a Valkyrie and a Storm Raven had sex... I do very much like the design I'm just, there's something about it I don't really like. Oh well, once we see the real thing we'll be able to talk about it. There's at least one thing I can say and that is it looks better than the Baby Carrier I mean the Dreadknight... hahaha.

Dust Warfare - Painting Log 1

So I'm going to do a little painting log, preferably once or twice a week where I just upload what I've got done this week or what I'm working on. I'll happily say I love the Dust Warfare/Tactics line of miniatures despite the fact I'm terrible at painting. :) Anyways, enjoy. 

As said, WIP. They do not look amazing I am aware. :)

Warhammer 40k: Flyer Rumors

First, I would like to thank BeastsofWar and Nafkta for ALWAYS having the scoop. They are my go to guide for 40k related releases which is brilliant because I play too many table top games to hunt down every rumor out there. Natfka has an almost godly nose for he's able to smell a rumor no matter how strong it may be. So I just want to give credit where credit is do, keep up the amazing work man...

As to BeastsofWar... There are times that these guys are incredible funny, cheesey, geeky, but nonetheless they ALWAYS have the scoop when it comes to 40k. I don't know how these guys do it, they must know someone at Games-Workshop because they have had the release of products pegged before it actually comes out... You guys are brilliant.

So what we have so far in terms is a possible 3 in 1 kit for Orks, I'll talk about names later. You've got the Space Marine flyer, and you've got the Necrons. That's all that has been mentioned. Do we have the Dark Eldar kit that we have been waiting for and the Harpy? Who knows... What we do know, is that BeastsofWar knows and that's all we need to know, for now. I'll post more at 5pm after BeastsofWar has confirmed what they know on their podcast.

Now to my rant... I really do feel as though Games-Workshop is giving Forgeworld the finger because they just came out with a flyer and now Games-Workshop gets to say, haha!!! We  have one that can actually be used in our games. How's about you?! I wouldn't be surprised if the points value is dirty cheap on the Space Marine "Storm Talon" in game, but monetary value I'm sure it'll be about Storm Raven, if not a bit more.

I'm also curious to see how the Storm Talon looks. I'm not a fan of how the Storm Raven looks... I'd prefer to have a flyer that looks unlike a shoebox with wings... That's probably why I really like the Valkyrie and the current Dark Eldar flyer. I hope it's mouth watering this release, I really do. :)

Proxy Markus and Squad

I've packed up my Warhammer 40k for a bit and I'll be jumping on the Dust Warfare Band Wagon. I'm really enjoying how the game appears to play from the small proxy matches I've played with my girlfriend. I'm looking to hopefully buy two small factions, invite a few buddies over and try and convince them to play the game. I still need to buy some more units for finish up the Axis army I plan on building... Until then it is all a matter of proxies. 

Right now, I have the most epic proxy... Take a look for yourself. :) 

The gorillas are still works in progress, I haven't based them and they have some touch up work to do. In the backround are some more dust figures with their heads and half painted. Enjoy.
