Blast Scape Necron Terrain

Nick speaking,

I thought I would finally get around to doing the Citadel Blast Scape set that I was given last year. The pieces look pretty cool as they are, but I ended up doing a few conversions to match them into my terrain, one for my Cities of Death board and the rest for my Necron terrain. I have seen a few reviews on this set saying the quality is pretty poor, and I have to say, these are nowhere near the quality of my Moonscape kit I have. So just to be on the safe side I started my giving them a good coat of expanding foam on the underside, which seemed to give them some extra strength. Anyway, this is what I have done with them, and I couldn't resist adding in a LaserCutCard Obelisk. just got to add some sand and then paint them up...

Bretonnian Knight WIP

Nick speaking,

With a view to continuously improve my painting skills with my little brushes. I recently jumped at the chance to paint up this Bretonian Knight mini for a YouTube Channel that I follow, DiceMiniaturePaintGuy. His Channel is great, and he has a Questing Knight project which this knight will be part of. So far I have finished the horse itself and just base coated the rest. Once I have it washed and highlighted, I plan on doing some free hand on the shields of the horse. This mini has been great fun to paint so far and definitely has taken me out of my comfort zone, which has to be good for me...

New Flayed One Themed Decurion Army

Nick speaking,

Time to have another look at my Necron Flayed One Themed Army once again and see what I can do with it with the new Codex! With Flayed Ones getting a nice buff with an extra attack and the Shred special rule, I have to say I am very excited about my army now. Not only that but with the new Decurion Attachment availble to me, my sixty Flayed Ones can have a 4+ RP roll without having to have a Destroyer Lord joined to them.


With no points change to the Flayed ones, I will start with the Reclamation Legion part of the list, and particulary the Canoptek Harvest Formation, which has the units I need to make the list work just as it did before. As a recap, that was two units of Scarabs and a unit of Wraiths to move up with the Flayed Ones who infiltrate forward. The whole list is about the Flayed Ones, so all the Scarabs and Wraiths are there just for the distraction.


To keep the same units in my list will mean two Harvest Formations, and although I would love to have two units of six Wraiths, I only have six models in my collection, so that has dictated that I will have to go for two units of three for now. I will still run them side by side as if they were one unit on the table, and they will work with the two larger units of Scarabs. Of course, the Spyders will be issuing them all with RP for as long as possible.


This brings me onto the Reclamation Legion Detachment. Previously I was using the bare minimum of troops so that the points can be put into the front ranks to make the list work, but now I will have to take two ten man Warrior squads and five Immortals. I also have to take Tomb Blades, which I am fine with, they are super cheap now and will work well with the list giving me a little up front shooting.

Now, with the two additional Spyders, increased points on the Scarabs, more Warriors and the Tomb Blades, I really do not have many points left for my HQ! I used to take Imotekh as my HQ, taking advantage Night Fight, but at the moment I can't see how I can get him into the list. So with the few points I have left I will just run with a very basic Overlord. He won't do much except sit at the back with the Immortals and Warriors and try and give those re-rolls of failed RP rolls of a one as best he can.


Right, this is how the list now looks, I can't wait to get it on the table and try it out. Battle report to follow...

Tyrannocyte Conversion Showcase

Nick speaking,

Here is my painted conversion of turning my old Mycetic Spores into a Tyrannocyte. I am really happy how it turned out and I think it will be very playable on the table. This is just the first of eight pods I have, so lots more conversion to go yet!

The Year of the Wolf (part 4) Next Unit!

Nick speaking,

Right, straight onto the next unit of ten Grey Hunters, in my task to paint as much of my Space Wolves 13th Company army in 2015 as I can. Just like my finished first unit, these guys have been heavily converted. I am really looking forward to put some paint on them and bringing them to life, but first I need to drill out the barrels and magnetise the pack leader and special weapon guys...
