Happy New Years and goodbye to 2015

Again getting this in early as my cherubs have had us awake since 3am and we definitely wont see midnight in d'oh!


Another great year has flown by, ive painted a grand total of 784 models in the last 12 months, including around 350 for clients from space ships to blood bowl teams, and elves to warmaster lizardmen. Not as many as last year but i was quite ill for October and November so lost a considerable amount of time there.

I have painted three large warmachine armies for myself and made a lot of headway through my beloved wasteman range... I intended to have them all done but real life and the holidays have put paid to that!

Last years vows were:

1) Fully painted Farrow army
2) Fully painted Gators army
3) Fully painted Pulp City
4) Fully painted Darklands

1) Thats a yep!
2) Croaks and river raiders to go fail
3) Not even started!
4) About 30 to go but progress has stalled with the rulebook delays :-(



For 2016 i vow:

1) Fully painted for Warmachine & Hordes
2) Fully painted for Darklands
3) Fully painted Abyssal Dwarf army for Kings of War




See you all in 2016!!!

Wasteman: The Kritters

Firstly, a belated happy xmas to everyone, hopefully you all got plenty of new shinny for the lead mountain!


Secondly, here are the Kritters and the other themed models in the Wasteman range:

Kritters Posse Starter Pack



Crazy Katia - Kritter Queen



Maw Men



Cherub



A lot of the existing Rad Town Ruins line up will fit in very nicely with a Kritter themed Syndicate, but the best thing about this game is that you are totally free to create your force exactly how you want it!

Wasteman: Cybjorgs vs Lunar Coalition Battle Report

First in what will hopefully be of many, a small Wasteman Battle Report featuring the two starter sets i have painted up so far:

I set up the wasteland road map i picked up earlier in the year with a mix of Plasticraft games "Post Apocalypse" range and some of Thunderchilds Rad Town scatter terrain.

Jacob then had the choice of which side he wanted and which of the posses he wanted to use... being a natural gamer he just chose where he was sat already and he wanted the Cybjorgs haha.


I won the roll for deployment and so put my minis in some cover as we were both packing a couple of Assault Rifles with a big 20 inch range!




Jacob pretty much mirrored my deployment with his guys in cover, and with that we were ready to start our game. We played a turf war so had to try and get our guys across the board into the enemy deployment area!




Turn 1 and action was already hotting up with first blood to the Cybjorgs... Tobledrone at the very top of the photo gacked my Heavy mediator with his Mini Gun!!

The second photo shows our positions end of Turn 1, The Cybjorgs advancing up field with the LC cornered in the bottom left... My guy on the bottom right is seriously injured already by the Cybjorg Jarl and will take no further part in the game.





Turn 2 saw plenty of shooting from both sides along with lots of MAD cards... I was able to catch Grendel in a tornado and fling him back across the board after he tried chainsawing my Mediator camped by the bottom Vending Machine haha.

The highlight of the turn tho was my Advocate gunning down the Cybjorg Jarl, crippling Grendel then crippling a Hauser all in one activation with her OO-Z and 3AP yeah boi!





Turn 3 and we were both on four models, Grendel was poised to get to my Advocate after some fluff rolls, so it was with luck i pulled a Mutant Mutilator card and powered up my Emissary to smash out the fat angry guy with the drills!

Jacob retaliated with a foot stomp from a passing globe strider but it only spooked my Mediator and Advocate i had left clumped together. A passing Planetary Bombardment failed to kill off my seriously injured Mediator at the bottom of the board.






Turn 4 had us both short on numbers, my Advocate took out a Hauser, another Hauser seriously injured the Emissary and my superstar Mediator still camped by the vending machine was able to finally remove Jacob's Tobledrone next to the top vending machine.

Revenge was swift tho as his surviving Hauser was able to kill off my Advocate leaving us with one functioning model each!





Turn 4 i was able to seriously injure the last Hauser so he couldnt move to get anymore MAD cards so we called it there as he had no way to heal up his guys.

Despite this glum chops, we both really enjoyed the game and will be looking to play again very soon... Jacob with Kritters and me with Bandits who are currently sitting half painted hehe



Wasteman: Cybjorgs & Lunar Coalition

Last week i picked up the bulk of my kickstarter minis from Jason at Thunderchild Miniatures, only the in house resin casts of the Behemoths and custom bases are to be picked up in the new year :-D


So im now the proud owner of 60 odd awesome and characterful metal models and was itching to start work on them hahaha:

Lunar Coalition Starter Posse

It was great to be painting Wasteman minis again, having completed the existing range back in October. These were a joy to paint, just like the resins i had finished before and i cant wait to start some games as i have a couple of table set ups i want to try out.
