Four Way 40K with The Banter Boys (Necrons Vs Marines, Marines and more Marines)

Nick speaking,

I think it's fair to say that anything can happen in a four way free for all game, and well, look at that pile of tanks! Loads and loads of fun on the table in this battle report where I introduce the Table Top Banter boys to the old 4th Edition Rescue Mission.

IDICBeer/IDICBeer Jr Vs Table Top Banter (Warhammer 40k Battle Report)

Nick speaking,

Time for my son and I to battle it out against Callum and Harry from Table Top Banter, I always knew this would be a fantastic game, and it didn't let my expectations down at all! My son and I had so much fun teaming our armies up and we can't wait to do it again soon. I hope you enjoy the battle report as much as we enjoyed the game...

IDICBeer and IDICBeerJr Join Forces - Our 2k List revealed!

Nick speaking,

Yes that's right, my son and I are no longer going to battle it out against each other. We are going to join forces to take on the guys from Table Top Banter, Callum and Harry. I have already played Callum, and we had a lot of fun, so I can only imagine how great this pairs battle is going to be. If you haven't already checked out the Table Top Banter Channel, then please do so here, oh, and they also have a nice looking Blog which Harry looks after.

So, what is our list going to be? Well, as you can see from the picture above, I am going to play my Eldar, Callum hasn't seen my army before, and I thought it would be cool to play my Bat'leth Wraithknight and converted Crimson Hunter, just for the sight on the table. Jetbikes seem to be the obvious Troops choice and I threw in some Swooping Hawks, just for fun.

As for my son, he wanted to play a bit of a death star unit, so he went for Tiggy and Centurions in a pod, backed up my Tacticals and bikes! Our plan? I will push forward with the Wraithknight, along with all the Marines and deal out as much damage as we can. In the meantime, my Jetbikes will do their usual tricks offering some long range support and taking objectives, with the Crimson Hunter and Swooping Hawks adding what they can to the big push as and when they come in!

Here is our final list, this is going to be fun...

Nick speaking,

Time for some more Mechdar action, and this time I had to slim down my list to fifteen hundred point, so that I could get a little friendly game in against my sons Space Marines...

American Space Marine Free Hand

Nick speaking,

I had a lot of fun building and painting up this Marine for my good buddy Commissar Gamza for his American themed Space Marine Army. I had a blast doing a green stuff double cheeseburger in his hand and Americanising him up with some free hand on his shoulder pads, matching him into my buddies army the best I could. I hope you like him...

Space Marine Chapter Collection Update

Nick speaking,

I have been working on my entry into the Space Marine Chapter Collection that is being run by my buddy Stephen, at Quantum Studios. The idea behind the project is to bring the community together and end up with a Space Marine from each Chapter all painted up. I have been really enjoying painting this guy so far, and have done some freehand on his shoulder pad and a battle damaged eye.

Space Marine Chapter Collection

Nick speaking,

Here is my entry into the Space Marine Chapter Collection that is being run by my buddy Stephen, at Quantum Studios. The idea behind the project is to bring the community together and end up with a Space Marine from each Chapter all painted up. I was lucky enough to get in quick and put my hand up to do a 13th Company Space Wolf. This is a great project for me, as I plan on using the mini I made below as a test model for my army colour scheme, which will be pre-heresy Space Wolves grey with Emperors Children and Black Legion Chaos armour plates. There are still a few Chapters left to allocate so if you feel like joining in, just click here for more info...
