Past Collections: 28mm Fugures. Many of which I should never had parted with.

Photos form the old blog of 28mm figures I paid. These are gone now, sold or given away. I regret selling my Space Marines especially, as the new owner stripped off the paint work.

Thirteenth Game of the Year: Three Player Combat Patrol

 Today on Saturday we played a three way Combat Patrol game between my Death Guard, Darren's Necrons, and Stephen using the Khorne Berserker CP I had painted for XP. We played at XP. Darren and me were also babysitting, which explains the loss of two miniatures (thankfully extra poxwalkers, it is the thirteenth game)

All in all a good tense game using the Combat Patrol Multiplayer Rules (in White Dwarf). By the end most of our armies were cut to piece, Darren's and Stephen's warlords were dead (we were playing Clash of Champions), and Stephen won with 60 VP vs my 50 VP, vs Darren's 20 VP.

Project done for now: Tau Force for Warhammer 40k/ Inter-Species Security Organization Vanguard Conflict Cadre for Xenos Rampant

 For the time being I am done working on my Tau/ISO force for 40k/Xenos Rampant. I have enough miniatures for the first Tau Combat Patrol for 10th edition Warhammer 40k , about 600 in points, and more than 24 points for Xenos Rampant. I am quite happy with this force, and have ideas about how to expand, using the lore of the Tau in 40k to buy and use miniatures from a wide range of manufacturers. But I am not in a hurry to do so. It was a fun force to collect, including miniatures from three deferent manufacturers.  

The Xenos Rampant army list can be reached through this link. In Xenos Rampant this is a Inter-Species Security Organization Vanguard Conflict Cadre, which I envision as the scout forces of an alliances of many species, including humans, that face various interstellar threats (including human ones). Here are the photos.

Twelfth Game of the Year: Legion Imperialis again

 This Tuesday we played another game of Legio Imperialist at XP Games. I once more lost playing the Astrates, this time by Turn 2. Vern played the Imperial Army. I am starting to understand some concepts though. Comapred to 40k, it has a steeper learning curve. I played with Tasos a 1000 point Incursion game on TTS, and despite losing with my DG, I gave it a good run. This after about six-seven games of CP. LI is definitly harder.  Some random photos from the action.
