Gone Fishin'

Okay - not fishing, but camping for the weekend. I won't be back until Tuesday, June 1st. So the no updates thing doesn't mean that I've fallen off the face of the earth...
Unless I fall off one of the trails at Zion National Park - some of those trails get up there!

Winning the Game

How do you win a game of Warhammer 40k? Is it simply a matter of throwing some models on the table, lining up like 18th century gunlines and blasting away until everyone is dead?
Hardly.

Know When To Walk Away, Know When To Run


I was reading Goatboy's article on How Not to Be a Douche over on BoLS and one of his bullet points stood out to me.

Miniature Review: Sanguinary Guard Box Set


This weekend I started assembling my Sanguinary Guard models that I got back here. Three boxes in, and it occurred to me to do a bit of a review. So sit back and enjoy.

Blog Roll - What's That?

I'm looking to expand upon my BlogRoll over yonder =>

If you have a blog and would like to be on my mini-roll, I would love to exchange links. Leave your blog URL in the comments.

Social Wha-? Look Man, I Just Want To Play a Game


So if you're here, it's likely that you have come from a source where you have read these articles. If you haven't, get thee hence.

Warning, it's quite a bit to digest.

Myth: Foot Slogging = Static



Based on this comment from Mercer:
"Can you explain how your troops as they appear to have lack of mobility."

I would like to talk about this for a minute, enough so to bring it into its own post. This is, of course, not to pick on Mercer as I have had this comment from a lot of people - whether about my army or about foot armies in general.

Ardboyz BatRep

Sorry about the lack of pics - my camera died in game 1, sigh.

My list:
2500 Pts - Space Wolves Roster

Ardboyz Results and Thoughts

Mmm, overslept this morning - needed a recharge after yesterday.

On to the stuff! I placed 2nd - so while I can't crow about it, my YTTH creds won't be revoked.

Oooooh, Goodies!

Ok, so I wasn't going to do another entry... but out on the lawn I heard such a clatter, I rushed to the window to see what was the matter, and what to my wondering eyes should appear? GOODIES!

Ardboyz Missions, part deux



Seriously people? Getting this worked up about it? Granted, Andy tends to go overboard on his criticisms, but I have spoken to many people that feel the same way: Scenario 1 & 2 are tailored to specific army types and Scenario 3 punishes mech.

ArdBoyz Kill Point Wackiness


So I have read a lot of whining about the published scenarios for the upcoming Ardboyz Tournament. To be fair, I wasn't overly thrilled with the rules for mission 3 either (let's see... I can take my 43 KP mech Eldar, or my 42 KP shooty Space Wolves). But after a bit of thinking, I'm not so much on the "THIS SUCKS!" bandwagon.

Budget Scissors


This is a fun army... I've played with it and it can really hit hard, but it can also get swept under the rug. The great thing about it is that it doesn't cost a lot to acquire.

First, the list:

Star Wars Day

Yesterday was Star Wars Day (the original Star Wars was released May 4, 1977). In celebration of that day, I bring you the single greatest car wash.
EVAR.

Logan Tricks or My Ardboyz Army


So I decided to run a Logan-wing army for Ardboyz. Less emphasis on the Wolf Guard, more on shooting crap up.

Here's my 2500 pt list. Oh yeah... this army can SHOOT.

A.W.O.L.

Ah life. She is a harsh mistress, no?

Anyhow, I've been gone long enough. I won't bore you with the emo-drama. I'm back now.
