August 2025 Gaming Summary

 August was busy month despite my Summer Semester courses ending in the first week. Zoe's school started on the day my summer semester does, and then Ceren started work a week later. So my short summer break was busy. Still I cannot complain a got in a lot of games:

1) Multiplayer 40k game pitting my Death Guard (1000 points) in a free for all vs. Necrons, Space Marines, and World Eaters. I was not the winner, and while I had fun, I think 40k multiplayer really needs alternating activations.

2) A game of Battlefleet Gothic pitting my Imperial Navy Battlefleet Gothic (1120 points) vs. an equal Chaos Undivided force. A victory for me. 

3) Two games of Battletech. A learning game demo at Challanges Games and Comics, and the final game of the thrid season of the Affordable Atrocities Campaign at Level Up -Duluth. 

4) Multiplayer Kill Team: Pitting my recently finished Rogue Trader Entourage and Voidsmen vs. Brood Brothers vs. Kriegsmen. The Brood Borthers won. I did not enjoy the game not becuase of losing, or my opponetns (they were great) but the sheet number of things I needed to remember to play my Kill Team overwhelmed me. And RT one is one of the least demanding one. This pretty much led to my decision to back off skirmish gaming (Trench Crusade or KT) in preference for investing into 40k Boarding Actions. It is not that I will not play KT or TC, but I am not investing for them, and they are not on the monthly rotation (which is pretty much 40k, Battletech, and Battlefleet Gothic) 

Small Project Finished: Eldar vehicle and ships

 Every since the great and late, and much missed Kyoteblue had gifted me several worths of DBA armies in miniatures, I vowed to follow his example and when possible gift stuff to fellow players. A fellow palyer gifted me his overflow stuff. Among them were a Eldar Falcon, and many Dorpfleet Commander bits. I do not play Eldar but now one person in my local store community that does. I decided to entice them to join my Illustris War BFG/40k campaign, by building them a Eldar inspired BFG fleet from the bits, and painting the Flacon (and fixing it) in their army colors. I thoroughly enjoyed this little project. 

Small Project Finished: Rogue Trader Entourage and Voidsmen at Arms

 A small project done. Rogue Trader and Voidsmen at Arms. These were built with the idea of representing the Rogue Trader elements of the Imperial Fleet I was building for the Illustris War. But I decided to focus on just a Navis Imperialis force. I gifted those fleets to Adam at our store community, and will gift him this as well. 

It was fun collecting and paiting. There is Reaper, Alternative Armies, Carnavale, and Necromunda Escher in this unit. 

Edit. In the end my friend told me to keep them, so this part of the collection stays with me. 

Project Re-Imagining Completed : The Twin Seeders Vectorium -Death Guard

 I need to learn not to claim projects are completed . The new codex of the Death Guard led me to a radical rethinking of my collection, dividing it into two forces. A Chaos Space Marine Codex, Cult themed force under Athalika, and the Twin Seeders Vectorium a orthodox Death Guard force. Each is around 1000-1200 points.  I have now compelted the Vectorium. So this part of the re-imagining is done. Here are pictures. A full narrative will be made available under the Illustis War page.
