I managed to squeak in a game of Kill-Team at the Clubhouse yesterday, versus a Tau kill-team. We rolled for the mission after selecting our Kill-Team, and we ended up with Take Prisoners, which didn't seem so bad until we read more about it. Turns out, being within 1 inch of an enemy to capture … Continue reading Kill Team Battle Report: Take Prisoners!

Getting back on the horse!
It has been a little while! To be honest, work kind of kicked my butt, and being tired and burnt out doesn't help ones motivation to paint. But, I figured if I didn't paint something eventually I would fall back into bad habits of never painting anything! So, to get back on the horse, I … Continue reading Getting back on the horse!
A wee bit of assembly!
Just a small update today, as work was pretty tiring and I need a day to recharge the hobby batteries. But, as I came home yesterday night, a package awaited me. The big dude on the left needs no introduction to veteran Guard players, but is Gunnery Sergeant "Stonetooth" Harker. 100% grade A catachan badass. … Continue reading A wee bit of assembly!
Medic! And a sneak peek at next months big project!
Another day, another Vostroyan done. This medic is for my command squad, and while the medics aren't terribly useful he looks fantastic, and thus has a place in my army. He is younger then most of the other veterans in the command team, and his mustache has yet to grey with age. I might revisit … Continue reading Medic! And a sneak peek at next months big project!
Confessions of a Lore-Addict: The Importance of Theme and Context

It won't be for everyone... and that's OK, we all have parts of the hobby we like and don't like as much! So with that out of the way, on with the show! The … Continue reading Confessions of a Lore-Addict: The Importance of Theme and Context
Kill-Team After Action Report!
So, after a week of frantic batch painting, I finally got a chance to run the Catachan 890th in a game of Kill-Team! They passed their first test with flying colors, sure, they didn't win but they didn't fail me completely either. It was, as always in this wonderful club I'm in, a much grander … Continue reading Kill-Team After Action Report!
Kill-Team!
You folks got a sneak-peek (So far, folks = 0, so this is just me future proofing out of sheer optimism!) at my Catachan Kill-Team. When I was deciding what to play for Kill-Team, there really was only one option for me; Good old Poor Bloody Infantry. But while my Vostroyans are beautiful models, they … Continue reading Kill-Team!
A New Beginning
So I started this blog, if one could call it starting, sometime in 2013. I made one post, then, doubting myself, never continued it. I've since then both matured as a gamer and as a person, and feel like giving it another go. My wargaming inspirations are many, but probably easily in the top 3 … Continue reading A New Beginning
