With the release of Kill Team for 8th Edition 40k, I’ve managed to get myself out of my hobby slump. At least start to anyway.
I haven’t really gotten much done since I last posted, I haven’t touched those Infinity minis except to play. I’ve been playing PanO for my clubs slowgrow, and I haven’t even primed those guys 😳 I have in the mean time assembled a bunch of Space Marines to be painted as Dark Angels, the Soul Wars Stormcast Eternals (which I’m playing a Path to Glory campaign with) and assembled and mostly painted a Kill Team.
40k:
I’ve got another 5 primaris marines and 5 Deathwing Terminators primed and basecoated since I took this. I’ve got a Venerable Dreadnought that I have to finish magnetising and a Land Raider Crusader to finish as well. Not pictured – Contemptor Dreadnought in 30k Dark Angels colours.
I’ve also decided to start Adeptus Mechanicus because the Skitariii models in Kill Team look damn awesome.
Age of Sigmar:
Stormcast Eternals. My Path to Glory starting force. Not pictured 2000 points of Tzeentch Daemons (in Daemonic plastic grey)
Kill Team:
30k Dark Angels, or 40k Fallen. Went with the MkIV because it looks neat, I’m going to add a couple of MkIII bodies to the mix as well. I’m putting together the Skitarii from the core box because they look sweet as well.
Infinity:
No pictures, because well nothing new really. I played a couple of games in the Kurage Crisis, and never bothered to report them because the social media aspect of some players ruined it for me. I’ve been playing a lot of PanO because I said I would only play them during the slow grow and I’m just not feeling it. Not sure what I’m missing, I think I’m to used to having options, whereas with PanO the options seem to be *blam* or *blam*
Tunguska released, and its… more but less than what I expected. I’ll grab the starter, but I’ll probably just stick to Vanilla. I’m having fun there 🙂
Operation Coldfront is coming soon, and it looks awesome. If only they never made the Ratnik (it’s a hideous model, then again I don’t like the other HI/Tag thing either.) I would seriously be considering playing TAK. But the ALEPH look awesome, and I’ll be playing them instead.
Games Workshop have Adeptus Titanicus coming out, and I can feel my wallet quaking in fear already. Hot Titan on Titan action, it looks amazing. It’s in a different scale to ye olde Epic and 40k, so the minis won’t work cross system. Which sucks, but I guess I’ll see what happens.
I’ve got a Kill Team night tomorrow at my local gaming store (which I literally discovered does more than MtG last week), Infinity the day after and then I’m off to Coffs to see a mate and play some 40k(500-1k)/Kill Team (and you know, meet his baby daughter) Hoping to finish my Kill Team tonight, get my other Primaris basecoated and a 5man of Hellblasters assembled before Friday when we leave.
A busy week all in all, and hopefully I’ll actually get stuff done. I’ll have to start posting weekly like the intention always was – as a hobby log/progress report.
