I didn’t really need an excuse to organise a game with Nico but a rematch from our game last year felt like a valid one. I still have this headcanon floating around of my Sons of Horus army being a splinteredelement of a greater one, a shard of the speartip that was landed on Tallarn in 010.M31. Perturabo’s forces would have had representation from Horus’ armies for sure as the XVI were so invidious in the conflicts over the galaxy at that time. His Dark Angels are beautiful and terrifying to behold so I had been looking forward to getting some models on the table again with him :)

I’ve told you a dozen times and I’ll tell you again, Captain - tell the Old Bear I’m going down there. We saw the IV move in to that sector twice in the past hour on Auspex and have confirmed eyes on from nearby Seeker squads. They’re going for those Archaeotech clusters man! and yes I know we can’t stop them but we can at least harry them until you can meet with the other elements of the chapter and organise an appropriate practical response. Don’t look at me like that. Tell the old man I’ll see him in hell. I hope the Olympians have bought enough tanks to make this worth my while. ~Stelos Titus, Praetor 12th Chapter XIII Legion Assault Element

Work work, zug zug, Lokar! Took the opportunity one sunny afternoon to stick my airpods in during a particularly long work presentation/meeting thing and crack out the rattlecans to get some basecoats down. Specifically: θ-⍴ Elysium Mechanicum and the Theta-Garmon CXI.

I’m actually getting somewhere with my XIII Legion army.

Springtime is a funny time of year down here. We’ve had some days of AMAZING sunshine (yay rattlecan priming!) and some days of truly terrible grimy rain (yay excuse to disappear into the cellar and paint). I’m looking forward to Kindergarten-virus season being well and truly over and being able to go out with the kids regularly.

‘I was there,’ he would say afterwards, until afterwards became a time quite devoid of laughter. ‘I was there, the day Horus slew the Emperor.’ It was a delicious conceit, and his comrades would chuckle at the sheer treason of it.
I haven’t run a website for YEARS. When I was at uni (and weirdly had loads of time) I found the time to regularly write stuff. I’m hoping to get into the groove of updating this site more often and posting about my hobby journey.
