Contrary to the title of this post it is not about the details of painting the Legion of Everblight. Rather it is about the importance of keeping painting notes. Below are my notes for painting the Legion -
Nyss Basecoat (Undercoat Black) a) Codex Grey / Chaos Black 5:1 b) Codex Grey / Kommando Khaki 1:1 c) Kommando ...
This miniature wasn’t as bad to assemble as I thought it’d be. 24 pieces (including the base) makes for a pretty big metal miniature, but it goes together quite nicely. The pieces slot in logically and there is little green stuffing required. The green stuff is drying at the moment. Once it is I’ll ...

I was going to say that making a set of wargames rules available for download wasn’t exactly unprecedented as GW have done this with their Specialist Games range. However, that’s not quite correct, GW punted the games they no longer wanted to fully support onto the web as free downloads and left it to the ...
I’m pretty good at keeping the ‘lead mountain’ under control. I only have about €150 of unpainted Warmachine and Hordes stuff. In order to get ready for MkII I’m not going to buy any new Warmachine bits before the Forces books start to roll out in 2010, so this is an opportunity to get all ...
It’s 4am and I can’t sleep, so here’s a quick (and basic) guide to basing. It’s weird but quite often I see armies that are quite well painted, but haven’t been based. Basing a miniature is analogous to framing a picture. A simple, yet cohesive basing scheme in an army gives all of the miniatures ...

I’ve had this miniature since the No Quarter promotion and just didn’t make time to paint it until now. That’s probably because I’ve been proxying Eiryss with the Ordic Pistolier miniature which I quite like. I didn’t pick up the original Eiryss because I really didn’t like the sculpt. This ...

Okay – I’m too tired to write a proper battle report, so here’s a quick narrative review of tonight’s game. Dave’s army consisted of -
I had a slightly altered list from that which I ran recently -
Here’s another ...
I recently blitzed some unpainted Cryx models I’d been stockpiling. Cryx is a faction I’ve had for a while, but it’s always been secondary to my Khadorans (and probably in third place if you count my Legion of Everblight). So, I’ve recently started using the faction and decided to start with the Iron ...

During the week Phil and I fought a 750pt game over my newly constructed battle board. The last time we played my Cryxian force got the better of his Menites, but this time I would be using my old reliable Khadorans. We rarely play 750pt games, so I took this opportunity to field ...
I finished this guy this evening and I think he turned out well. He’s consistent in colour with the Greylord Ternion, so will compliment that unit nicely. I need to reread his rules as other than being a pretty decent ‘jack marshal who has some spells and buffs the Greylords, I’m not sure ...
