Space Marine: The Video Game (review)
Ok, so this weekend I purchased Space Marine for the PS3 and gave it a run. Previously I was a consceintous objector, as I really believe that all space marines should rot in Commorragh. However, I am a gamer first, Dark Eldar second. So here goes my objective review of the game. Continue reading
Game 59 Daemons vs IG
Well with the holidays screwing up everybody’s schedule it’s been hard to get in a game of 40k. But we bust the dry spell with a Daemons vs IG game and it was a knock down drag out fight the whole game. We even throw in a little tactica at the end for our devoted viewers. Continue reading
Apocalypse Update
Well with the game right around the corner it was time to improve our selection of super heavies. The budget was slim but we couldn’t have a game of apocalypse without some titanic war machines, and as luck would have it we were able to track down a couple of really good deals on eBay for just that. Continue reading
Grey Knight reappearance
So with everybody’s crazy schedules it has been hard for all of us to get together and get 40k games going, in particular for AG. So in order to get more battle reports with the Swiss Knights, I mean Grey Gouda, I mean Cheddar…. Grey Knights, I have stolen AG’s armies and will now be working them into the rotation. Continue reading
The True Nature of Chaos
So Victor and I have reached a stage in our Friday afternoon gaming where simply playing normal games of 40k will appease our need for carnage. So in an effort to mix up the normal order of pick an army, set up the table, and play the game we have decided to throw a little bit of randomness into the mix. We have made a list of the 10 armies available for us to play with and we both roll a d10 to decide which army we’ll be in command of for that day. The only real rules for this new system is you can only re-roll once every other game to get a different army, and once you have rolled your army you have the rest of that day to build your list. It’s turned out to be a great way to expand our knowledge of tactics, as well as giving each of us a new insight into each others armies. As it is quite possible to roll an army you don’t normally play you get the opportunity to try something new, use a fun list not based off of how strong it is, and play against an army that very well could be your own.

Space Wolves House Training
This last Friday the mighty Space Wolves received yet another chance to prove their abilities, this time against the Tau. We played a 2000 PT game, a hammer and anvil deployment Emperor’s Will game, and it wasn’t an easy game for either side. Continue reading
Another Daemon Incursion
Well this week Victor got in his brand new Space Wolves army and we couldn’t wait to get them on the field to see how they would do. The original plan was to play them against my Tau army to fulfill a request for a batrep from youtube, but at the last second I decided to change to my Daemons. Continue reading
Daemons in the 40k Universe
Well I have once again expanded my forces, this time with the addition of the chaos-y goodness that is Daemons. I have set the army up to play Warhammer 40k but with the help of some special movement trays they just might find their way through the warp to the world of Warhammer Fantasy Battles. I have already managed to get in two games with my Daemons, the first against Space Marines was a solid win though the footage of the game was unfortunately lost in the Warp. My second game was against the Tau Empire and it was a close game that showed just how solid shooting has become in the new meta of 6th Edition. Continue reading
New happenings: A personal log from the drunken gremlin
I’ve been a laggard when it has come to updating the blog on the Aelland campaign, which is entirely my fault. It’s not due to lack of inspiration to visit the blog and update, but instead it’s more like an overabundance of inspiration. So here’s what’s on my laundry list: Continue reading
