Orcs and Empire fight it out in a bloody battle

Warhammer Tuesday pitted my in progress Orc & Gobbo army against my own Empire army, played by one of my mates.

Ended up being one of the most bloodiest battles I've played with almost all figures gone from both armies.

2 fanatics and a mangler!! I'm outta here

Battle report is on Youtube

Rock lobber #1 arrives for the Orcs

Picked up a rock lobber last week to replace my scratch built ones, and got it painted this past weekend.

Quick job but happy with how it turned out.

I still have to post Game 2 & 3 of the tournament I went to last week. You can find game #2 on Warhammer Youtubers already but haven't got around to posting game 3 yet.

Game 1 of 3 - March 2014 Good Games Tournament

I've posted Game 1 of 3 of a local one day tournament up on youtube. I hope to have the other 2 up in the next day or so when I fix my computer woes :( SSD corrupted

Hope you enjoy

New Arch Lector Finished

Here's my newly painted Arch Lector model. I've been using an old Warhammer Quest model for my Warrior Priest/Arch Lector that I painted about 8 years ago. The new model fits in better to the style of my Empire army.

The yellow cloak ties him into my Averland theme

Kept the cloak fairly dark. All my warrior priests sport a red cloak.

I rushed him a bit in the end so not totally happy with the gold, but the cloak came out OK and most importantly, he strikes a good figure from a top his War Altar :).

Arch Lector hears the call of (tournament) war, this weekend

Mangler squigs hear the Waaagh!

Finished my two mangler squigs this weekend. Here's a shot with two of my old doom divers that I previously stripped and repainted.

Getting very impatient for my Orcs to be ready for the table. I think I'll have to start playing with them unpainted though, to get in some practice.

Empire vs Daemon Battle

I got a game in this week against some Nurgle daemons. Sigmar and Karl Franz will be proud.

Here's a few pics below and you can view the battle report on youtube.

Hobby time update

Finished off my textured gaming board. Replaces my old 8'x4' felt covered table. I think it came up ok. I'm thinking I'll add some more different types of flock for some variety as well as I can use the flock on some new terrain I'll be building to blend everything in a little better.

New Textured Gaming Board

Here's my Averland army displayed on the table, just itching for an outing.

Man Day!!

The last Sunday of each month is Man Day. I only was able to get one game in due to having to leave early. Played a game against some High Elves where I royally screwed up some rules that really cost me. Good way to learn though

In future I'm going to try create some video battle reports of my club games so stay tuned.

Youtube Channel

I also created my first YouTube battle report on a new channel - Gommo's Itchy Nuisance. See the link over to the right. The first match here was against a new opponent which is getting back into Fantasy (He's very experienced, just took a break).

Take a watch and let me know your thoughts, feedback etc..

And finally, some greenskin updates....

First 5 of 40, savage orcs done. It's going to be another horde painting slog, but looking forward to seeing my O&Gs on the table soon.

Savage orc champion furious he can't find the rest of his horde!!
