We now return to our regularly scheduled programming.

And now, back to what this blog is really for: pictures of miniatures! I set up all the painted Planetfall models I have on the dining room table at once so I could get some group shots. so with no further ado, here they are:

the group shot
The Core

The Heavy Support


The Recon

and The Leviathan
There is more to paint, of course, but this is enough to field fully painted forces in quite a few games. I have another spire painted for the recon infantry (the yellow and green guys), but I didn't include it since I haven't painted the second squad of infantry. There are two more squads of little walkers yet to paint, since the Leviathan and Core helix Hex can each take two squads, and two more sets of Core infantry, which are probably up next.

First full game with new Tau

I finally got in a full game of 40k with the new Tau codex, thanks to the patience of Jason from Battlefront Games, who was willing to stay up far later than he should have. My thanks, sir! My army consisted of 3 squads of basic fire warriors, a single squad of kroot snipers, an ethereal, a crisis team with missile pods and fusion blasters for anti-armor, a pathfinder unit, a commander with drone controller escorting 8 marker drones, one bomber, and one of each heavy tank option. Jason's force was 3 tactical squads of space marines in drop pods, an ironclad dreadnought in another drop pod, a land raider full of assault terminators, a thunderfire cannon, Vulcan, and another special character I'm not sure of: Master of the Something-Or-Other. The game was Relic, which never moved the entire game! Basically, Jason's drop pods would come down, their contents would kill some of my stuff and get to touch the relic, then I would aim most of my firepower at it and wipe them out...

Hordes minis shaping up nicely

Image
Just a quick update now that I got a bunch of pictures off my phone. These are my first three painted models from Hordes: Circle Orboros. That's Winter Argus and two Reeves.  There are more of them in progress, but these are the first finished ones. I think this picture was taken before I painted the Argus's eyes yellow, and they don't have base rings because I haven't decided what color to make them. I'm thinking maybe a dark orange or brown? I'm also unsure of whether I need to add any pattern to the cloaks or whether screaming yellow is just fine!

Well, it's been a while...

Apparently, I never got around to posting my thoughts on prepping for Adepticon, which is fine since Adepticon has now come and gone. Did I run my event? Indeed I did! Was it successful? In my completely biased opinion, yes it was. The information packet for Firestorm Planetfall: Renaissance at the Renaissance can be found here , and it has some aspects that I am fairly proud of. I talked to a few representatives from WarCradle, who now own the intellectual property for Firestorm, Dystopian Wars, and a few other formerly Spartan Games assets, so maybe some of my ideas will make it into the rules when Firestorm rises from the ashes in a year or so. The main rules change, which was very well received, is the "non-rolling start" described on page 2 with a record sheet on page 7 of the tournament pack. Basically, instead of rolling opposed initiative six  freaking times at the start of each game, you do it once. The winner of that roll gets to choose one of the six things that...
