Painted Circle Orboros: Tharn Bloodweavers, Shifting Stones UA, Warpborn Skinwalkers

Posted on May 21st, 2013 under , , , . Posted by

Even though I have figured out recently that circle may not be "my thing," I am determined to continue painting them because I love my scheme.

Battle: Vladimir Tzepesczi Great Prince of Umbrey vs. Lord Carver the Bringer of Most Massive Destruction

Posted on May 19th, 2013 under , , , , , , , , . Posted by

I can’t remember if I was playing Jeremy Patterson or Richard Grady, but we played this game at the now defunct Valhalla Games.

I was testing out Prom King Vlad with Conquest and Drago. I don’t think I had finished painting the second set of Uhlans yet, so I’m probably running this combination with "just" Fenris, Markov, Uhlans and Doomreavers.

Uhlans take the flank and the Doom

Painted Khador: Battle Mechaniks, Marauder

Posted on April 11th, 2013 under , , , . Posted by

This is pretty much one of those things I was supposed to paint in time for Adepticon. Guess I finished that goal back in December!

And this I painted just because. The Marauder is a sweet model. I just haven’t been able to bring myself to field…

Battle: Supreme Kommandant Irusk vs. Captain Gunnbjorn, 50 points

Posted on April 10th, 2013 under , , , , , , , , . Posted by

Another day another league game, this time against Derek’s Gunnbjorn army.

Brick up vs. guns! Sure it seems rock solid, but the Heavy Armor Battlion just means that the Trolls get more opportunities to shoot at it.

Scattergunners with Snipe get…

Unbound games are rather enjoyable.

Just a pic from a recent Unbound game.

Battle: Supreme Kommandant Irusk vs. very strange Karchev list, 50 points

Posted on March 12th, 2013 under , , , , , , , , , . Posted by

In this league game vs. Chuck Harris, he fielded a Khador list that tries to run Karchev as a super solo supported by Khador’s impressive infantry.

On my side of the table, I’m still running the heavy armor battalion because I’m too lazy to unearth …

The Thing About Kossites

Posted on February 27th, 2013 under , , , , . Posted by

Dan once told me that Anastasia di Bray was a bad model for me to play with because she’s a finesse piece. And sure enough, every time I’ve fielded her, I’ve forgotten to Ambush her or activate her after she’s ambushed, losing me at least one game.

Battle: Supreme Kommandant Irusk vs Master Ascetic Naaresh, 50 points

Posted on February 22nd, 2013 under , , , , , , , , , , . Posted by

Ben Lang and I played our Summer League game at the Dice Dojo. I brought Epic Irusk the Supreme Kommandant and he brought a motherload of Pain Givers.

Master Ascetic Naaresh Theme Force. It’s a thing.

Please ignore Butcher and the Revenger. …

Battle: Supreme Kommandant Irusk vs. Captain Kara Sloan, 50 points

Posted on February 20th, 2013 under , , , , , , , , , , , . Posted by

Continuing the 50 point Round Robin League last summer, I fielded my Irusk list against Dan’s Kara Sloan shooty list. And while you might think it’s a ‘jack heavy ‘beast, it’s actually a well rounded list that has many options for ranged attacks.

Painted Khador: Great Prince of Umbrey, Torch, Spriggan, Demolisher

And a wild Prom King  appears!

Pretty much this might be the last of my Khador painted for the year.

Battle: Supreme Kommandant Irusk vs. Lich Lord Terminus, 50 points

Posted on February 4th, 2013 under , , , , , , , , , , , . Posted by

At the start of our summer league at the Dice Dojo, I fielded Supreme Kommandant Irusk’s Heavy Armor Battalion hoping to make something happen with Man’O War. In my first game I got to play Alex Dunning’s newly minted Terminus list.

What Irusk …

Painted Khador: Winterguard Field Gun Crew, Iron Fang Pikemen

Posted on January 29th, 2013 under , , , . Posted by

Man,I STILL haven’t fielded my regular Iron Fang Pikemen in anything. I had ideas for them, once, but I so dearly love the Black Dragons! Ah well, maybe some day.

Battle: Supreme Kommandant Irusk vs. Grand Scrutator Severius, 35 points

Posted on January 25th, 2013 under , , , , , , , , , . Posted by

In the final game of the June 9 Steamroller , I got to play former student, Tom Brien.

And he kicked my assets all over the table.

Motion blur!

He had a solid Severius list with two Reckoners, a pocket of Exemplars for Severius to hide behind…

Battle: Kommander Orsus Zoktavir vs. High Exemplar Kreoss, 35 points

Posted on January 23rd, 2013 under , , , , , , , , , . Posted by

This was round 3 of that Steamroller.

Not much to say except that shooty Menoth is a thing.

Battle: Supreme Kommandant Irusk vs. Madrak Ironhide World Ender, 50 points

Posted on January 21st, 2013 under , , , , , , , , , , . Posted by

Supreme Kommandant faced Nate Young’s epic Madrak force. Irusk had a Devastator and Beast-09 backed up by ManOwar, a Mortar, Great Bears and a Manhunter and faced a Krielstone supporting Kriel Warriors, Fennblades, and a Mauler.

Fire for Effect on t…

How ’bout that Faction: Khador

Posted on January 21st, 2013 under , , , , , , , . Posted by

Khador is sort of a contradiction for me.  I love the look of the big chunky ‘jacks and the defining characteristics are slow and high ARM.  While this is cool, competitively speaking I don’t see them on the table a lot.  I find Warmachine to be a difficult game to play casually, especially in our

Painted Terrain: Hills

Posted on January 21st, 2013 under , , , . Posted by

I don’t know why I always return to terrain. Ever since Aaron Schmidt and Jason Misuinas showed me the way of terrain, I have built stuff up and never looked back.

Battle: Kommander Orsus Zoktavir vs. Forward Kommander Sorscha, 50 points

Posted on January 18th, 2013 under , , , , , , , , . Posted by

Played in a 35 point Steamroller run by Micahel Plummer at the Dice Dojo back in June. This event marked the end of my Trollbloods tenure (hot on the heels of getting a pre-released Mountain King and Sons of Bragg, too!) and I brought a 35 point Mad …

Featured across the table are John Christensen’s Menoth

I’m really stoked to actually play in a tournament style event this weekend. 35 points theme forces!

While 50 points of themes is where it’s at, I can’t complain. After all, I get to play.

My last game at Lock and Load 2012 was against Nathan Philipps. He brought an Evayl force against my Family Reunion theme force. The whole point of my army is to make Boomhowler’s an Iron Fleshed uber unit.

The Wall of Done 2012: Batch Ten

Posted on January 15th, 2013 under , , , , , , , , , . Posted by

Batch Ten of 2012 is kind of a mess. Cliff Etters asked us to make a painting pledge and I just said, "Paint 100 models" without really thinking about it.

So I painted 150 of them.

Super Dungeon Explore: Hatchlings, Dragon, Treasure Chests, Druid, Sorceress, Mage
Resurrectionists: Shikomi, Night Terrors, Gaki, Kirai Avatar of Revenge
Malifaux: Taelor, Bishop, Johan, Viktorias, and a

Who’s the Boss at the Dice Dojo! Results

Posted on January 15th, 2013 under , , , , , . Posted by

Andy Welton and Moe came down from the Great White North on a playoff game day to run Who’s the Boss? for the Dice Dojo. I participated with Searforge and ended up drawing eMakeda in round 1.

The awards were varied and various. I can’t even tell wh…
