Forgworld love Continues: Corsairs and Dark Eldar

It looks as if Forgeworld kept some Edlar stuff back across the pond while I was at Adepticon.  We have some glimpses of the corsair forces and some Dark Eldar stuff as well for Imperial Armour 11.

Corsair Special weapons

It looks as if the corsairs are going to have jump infantry of some sort.  These guys looked  to be armed with fusion guns and flamers.

Raider with Haywire blaster

A Forgworld raider armed with a Haywire Blaster.  I really like the look of this so far.  I am very interested to see how different it is stat wise form a normal raider or if this is just going to be an alternative upgrade kit for a standard one.

This Raider looks awsome.  I can't wait for Imperial armor 11.  I would run this just as my normal raiders.  I am really wondering about price point.









Just a quick update.  Remember later in the week I will discuss the multi tiered mission .



Until then................

Adepticon 2011 In Pictures

Ok folks I have a nice big chunk of pictures from the convention.  It was great meeting Goatboy and Team Snake Eyes and finally meeting one of our local Fantasy power houses Rhellion.  In fact it was so cool he is now writing fantasy articles for DFG.  So go check it out.  In the mean time check out our adventure vicariously through our photos.

SO there are a few to look over.  OST took a ton and I don't want to hog them all so look for more here and at DFG.  I will be talking about the multi tiered mission next time.  It really is the future and what the tournament circuit is doing now.  They really make any army competitive and I think its time we talked about them.


Until next time............

The End is Nigh: Adepticon 2011 Winds Down

The convention has been fun.  As I sit here the GT is in the final four.  Tyranids, Guard, Space Wolves and Orks make up the final four.  We got to meet up with Team Snake Eyes who is still waiting to see how they placed in the Team Tournament.  Chaplin Aerion got a entry this morning in the Battle Force raffle by getting OST a very much needed cup of coffee.  We even had a few drinks and swapped painting techniques with Goatboy in the executive lounge.  We also were 3 sheets to the wind pretty much all weekend.  A very good weekend.  I will have pictures up in massive numbers when I have a better internet connection.

The Sexy Phantom Titan

Until then..................

Adepticon Forgeworld Sexiness

Wraithseer

As I promised I have pictures of some of the impending models form Imperial Armour 11:  The Doom of Mymera.  The one that has me the most excited is the Wraithseer.  A Wraithlord Seer which is armed with a d-cannon and a force weapon.  Yup thats right a force weapon.  I am really anxious to see the rules on this guy.  From my conversations with the Staffers at the booth Imperial Armor 11 will be dropping in August.  I also have to reiterate how big the Phantom titan is.
  This titan is massive.  It is armed to the teeth.  Price point seems to be about $583 for the body and $83 per weapon.  The Wraithseer is clocking in at $56.

Dan Abnett and I

Also I got to meet Dan Abnett.  He is my favorite author form the Black Library and The Guants Ghosts series is one of my all time favorite series next to the Heresy series. 
OST has been snapping tons of photos so keep your eyes peeled her and over at Dark Future Games for updates.








Until then............................

Adepticon: Almost LIve pt 2

I come to you from the lobby of the Westin Lombard at Adetpticon.  After my GT debacle I am back up to party mode for the convention.  Old school and I kind of dropped the ball on posts yesterday due to lots of tournament shananigans and lots of adult beverages.  I ended up with a rank in the 150's with 28 total battle points.  Vogrin somehow, despite actually playing all his games, with the same score.  I am sure we will have some discussions about soft scores again after this.  OST took second overall in the Killzone Tournament.  His Genestealers led by his Brood Lord Slaughtered the opposition.  The game has really captured the interest of the group, especially OST so look for more posts involving Killzone in the future.  Well more later, Check out Dark Future Games for posts throughout the day.  Also if it happens apparently we may have a couple battle reports later tonight as Goatboy of BOLS threw down the gauntlet with OST and myself.  I am not sure why I got challenged, but hey why not.

So stay tuned until next time.......

Don't Forget To Bring a Towel.

Well I made it two games into the GT before my temper started to show itself.  I managed to keep it professional and all together for my 2nd and now final game.  With a tie in round one and a massive loss for round two I have no chance to place or qualify for Sunday.  So even though I know I will get some flak I have withdrawn from the GT.  I want to have fun and I am starting to feel tired and rather ill tempered.  I think its best as I want to enjoy the convention.
The rest of the group is doing well though.  Vogrin has posted two victories and OST is tearing it up in Killzone.  The Phantom Titan is large and in charge as well as dead sexy.  I also have to get a pick up of the Warlock Wraithlord Forgeworld has here in their display case.  Looks like Imperial Armor 11, which according to the Forgeworld staff will drop in August, has some nice surprises in store for us.

So even though I will probably regret dropping I want to enjoy the rest of my weekend.  Stay tuned for more updates as the weekend progresses.


Until then........

Old School Terminator with Dan Abnett

Well I come to you from Harry Carry's in the Westin Lombard.  We are sitting down to breakfeast before our long gruleing day of laying 40K in the GT.  I also got in a really late night game with Farseer Re-rolls after long last.  It ended in a tie.  Now enjoy some pictures from Thursday night and look for a video report on Dark Future Games.  OST and I give a report from the floor and some shots of the awesome siege of Terra Display in the Grand Hall.
