Happy Holidays, Podcast and WAAAAGHHH!

Hey Everyone,

Just your General’s here to talk about a few things before the holidays. First off I was a on podcast done by my friend where I was a guest talking about general hobby stuff. I also finally have some pictures of General Havoc’s Imperial Fists. Lastly have a joint project me and Havoc are going to start that will probably take the next 2 years. So lets get to it and check out a few things.

 

Wrong Side of the Maelstrom

So I had the pleasure of being a guest on my good buddy Ian’s podcast, Wrong Side of the Maelstrom. It’s a General Gaming Podcast with a focus on Warhammer 40k gaming and its branching off into other games. It was really fun to get into and I enjoyed the segment and you can check it out the podcast I was on here https://soundcloud.com/wrongsideofthemaelstrom/epsiode-5-campaigns-the-romanov-heresy . In addition you can check them out on their facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/wrongsideofthemaelstrom/?fref=ts . So hope you enjoy this new podcast and will see you on the Wrong Side of the Maelstrom.

Orks

As the title suggests Havoc and I would like to present one of our projects we will be working on, the ORKS!. We are going to be creating a green WAAAAGH! To be used as an adversary force against are legion forces. This is part of the narrative we want to build and we want a general force we can use in campaigns and for random battle reports. This is one of our goals we want for the blog and I think it's going in the right direction.

So the primary design is pretty much to get a lot of bodies and Boys in this as possible. Despite being a first draft we really want this is be a nice force that is roughly about 5000 points so we can have both our legions fight it. The other thing is it's just designed to be a fluffy fun army representing 2 war bands and we may expand from here. Lets get to the design list and see how this goes. Now as a disclaimer this is subject to change depending on how our army budgets go.

General Soban’s Goals.

So before I got into the Heresy I lucked out and bought a ok amount of orks and this influenced my portion of the army design. The army focus around anything that would either be a walker or a boy unit that would charge into combat.

Warboss – Heavy Armour PowerKlaw and Bosspole

Mek – Just basic mek

Painboy – Basic Pain boy who fellows the boys

Nobs – Heavy Armour and one nob with a power claw and bosspole.

Boy Squad – 20 Boys with a Nob with Power Claw and Boss Pole

Boy Squad – 20 Boys with a Nob with Power Claw and Boss Pole

Boy Squad – 20 Boys with shoota’s and 2 Big Shootas

Boy Squad – 20 Boys with shoota’s and 2 Big Shootas

Gretchin Squad – 10 Gretchin with 1 Nerf Herder

Gretchin Squad – 10 Gretchin with 1 Nerf Herder

Killa Kan Squad – 5 Killa Kans

Killa Kan Squad – 5 Killa Kans

Killa Kan Squad – 5 Killa Kans

Stompa

Dakka Jet – with supashoota

 

So as you can see its 80 orks with a body guard unit and just a bunch of Killa Kans. Pretty much its all the Killa Kans run first with the boys charging in behind it. I think this is will be a fun army and will be a fun project to work on.

 

General Havoc’s Orks

Hey Havoc here just want to talk about my orks and I have a slight change compared to my fellow generals' list. So my is focus is on getting more boys and having my main warboss just rocking a killer ride and showing off he is the biggest meanest warboss ever to walk. I will also be focusing on more boys per units and I really want to max them out. Last there's not going to be much else in the list.

Warboss – Mega Armour, Cybog Body, Boss Pole

Warboss- Heavy Armour,

Mega Armour Nobs- 9 mega armour nobs 1 with a boss pole.

Boys- 30 boys with a Nob with Power Claw and Boss Pole

Boys- 30 boys with a Nob with Power Claw and Boss Pole

Boys- 30 Boys with Shootas and 2 Big Shoota. Nob with a Big Shoota and Boss Pole

Storm Boys – 16 boys with a Nob with boss pole and big choppa

Dakka Jet- Supa Shoota

Stompa

So with this army its just a lot of boys charging in with the Warboss and his Nobs rocking in the Stompa. The Storm Boys will hopefully be able to outflank rushing up a flank while the main force slugs it out with the other side. Its not the best build but I hope I have enough bodies to carry across and get into close combat.

 

So here we have the ork project, one we are hoping to work on the side with our legions that one day we can go against. I hope you like this and we know they're not competitive but we still want to hear what you think of this large ork army and anything you think we may want to add/change. Looking forward to what people post below.

Imperial Fist

So we finally have some more pictures of General Havocs Imperial Fists. So his force is built very much as an infantry force with a few support vehicles. It is also backed up by a large amount of terminators with a thunderhammer/storm shield set up to take advantage of the Imperial Fist Rite of War. Last thing is that Havoc will keep building it up, alongside his Imperial Fists he is looking to get some defense works and some better anti tank options to follow up with his infantry. Lets get to the pictures.

Closing

So we have another new project on our plate and we were able to have some new fun. I do hope you check out my friends podcast and like the content since it was a blast to record.  We also hope you like the pictures and we appreciate any feedback you can give us as we try new things and get more people to help us out. Just keep posting either on the comments section or on the website you may be viewing our blog.

From both Havoc and myself,  We wish you a Happy Holidays! Whatever your holiday is we hope you fully enjoy it with friends and family and as always be safe out there. Lastly even if you don’t celebrate anything this time of year we hope you enjoyed our blog and hope you enjoy some amazing war gaming.

Till Next time,

Your Generals

World Eaters!

Hey Everyone,

So Havoc and I here with another update and projects plans for General Havoc’s World Eaters. This is going to be a neat project for Havoc and his a nice contrast to his Imperial Fists and my Luna Wolves.

 

The project it self

The initial part of the force will be  heavy infantry with a lot of it being supplied by the new Battle of Calth set. The Main focus of the army will be closing in on the enemy and engaging at point blank range. This will be followed up eventually by some drop pods. This will be really cool and fits with the fluff on the army but let’s get to the list itself.

 

HQ

Praetor – Terminator Armour, Chain Fist, Combi Weapons.

Consul Chaplin – Power Mace, Plasma Pistol

Elites

Veteran Tactical Squad – 10 Marines with Flamer.

Terminators – 10 Termintors, Lighting claws

Troops

Tactical Squad – 20 Marines, Bolters, Chain Axes, Vexilla

Tactical Squad – 20 Marines, Bolters, Chain Axes, Vexilla

Tactical Support Squad – 10 Marines, Plasma Guns

Tactical Support Squad – 10 Marines, Melta Guns

 

So from this force we have a very heavy combat force that focuses on close quarters. Only down side is trying to get to the close quarters but eventually this will be augmented by droppods and other drop abilities. This is a very cool force and am excited to see how Havoc pulls this fluffy force.

 

As always hope you enjoyed this project report and curious what you post below.

You’re General’s

Signing off till next time

Wolves and new beginings!

Hey Everyone,

So it’s been a long wait but I have some fun and exciting info coming up and some new things that are going to be in place for the blog coming up. Some exciting news is regarding new material and new project plans.

New Member

So first thing that is up is my good buddy General Havoc is going to be helping me out with the blog. He will be adding content as well, being my partner in crime for the heresy experience. A recent player in both 40k and 30k he started out about a year ago taking his first steps as Imperial Fist player and will soon be working on his second legion, the World Eaters. I think this is going to be very interesting since he has a both a defensive army and one that is going to focus completely on the assault.

Now according to Havoc he is going to be almost done fully painting his Imperial Fists and when he does we are going to do the full army post up here so you can get a change-up. This heavy infantry army is going to be cool to see and we both hope you enjoy it when it’s up.

Campaign

So have both good news and bad news on this front for the narrative campaign. First is the main campaign that I want to be worldwide is going to be pushed back abit while I wait for a few local gamers to purchase and paint up some minis since the Battle of Calth set was a big hit locally. Now this is not the end of the campaign and will be next year for a worldwide campaign. On a bright note I will be doing a fun narrative one with Jesse hopefully posting the first battle report next week if everything goes well having the brave 14^th Company of Luna Wolves going against his Imperial Fists in a series of grudge matches for some fun and entertainment.

Luna Wolves

So as promised I finally got update photos of both the company as well as some additions to the army that I’ve been dying to show off. A good friend of mine was able to take a photo of the entire army minus the Storm Talon.

As you can see it really is shaping up to be an armor spear tip which fits with the narrative and idea I thought about for my legion. The army has a lot of things I want so far for the legion, with speed and fire power being pretty fierce and a slow grow of good dedicated anti tank. This is backed up by a very stable assault force which am finding the 16^th Legion shines at. I think there's more I'm going to add to the legion but for now I think its pretty stable.

In addition to this I got Abbadon and Loken finally painted by Bearbox studio and am very happy with how the models turned out. Extra Bonus is I love Loken in the Luna Wolves Color scheme with Abaddon in the black. In addition this is going to help me out with

the narratives' ability to field elements of both the 1^st and 10^th Company of Luna wolves so that’s an extra bonus.

Whats Next?

So coming up next on the blog will be taking about army projects and the gear up of our little narrative campaign. We have Imperial Fists, Luna Wolves, and World Eaters to talk about soon plus, of course, some Raven Guard. Hopefully this will get us right on track and we can really get this going. Last but not least I’ll leave some photos showing the brave Imperial Fists fighting the Luna Wolves and fighting side by side with them in 2 battles we fought.
