Matt Daemon

Just a quick post, both an update and for testing my mobile blogging via my phone!

Here's a couple of pics of my recently completed daemon prince.

First test model!

So while doing my project wotk this weekend,  I got a little side tracked as you do!
So ended up doing the first of my new avatar's of war chaos warriors.

First mobile blog!

Just downloaded the mobile blogger app so thought I'd try it out!

Here's a pic of my chaos sorcerer, 99% complete. Only a tiny bit if highlighting left to do.

RG3 - The Christmas Project

Last night while putting together Juggerloons in the Hobby Shack, I was introduced to the single most amazing individual that I'd met that day - no not Big Mo but Robert Lee Griffin III, otherwise know as RG3.

Ah Yeah!

Now this has inspired me.
In fact, it's inspired me so much I'm going to create this daemon of wonderousness by wrecking converting an Exhaulted Hero into RG3.

Now I only have one Exhalted Hero, the Nurgle dude, and I think he's a bit too gigantic to do but if I can't find any other one then it'll do, SURE YOUR GRAND!

I had a quick flash of using a Bloodbowl player but that'd be a complete cop out really so it has to be a Warriors of Chaos hero model....except Sigvald as I'm not wrecking him, he's to beautiful!

I'm excited about this! I've never converted a model before or ever created anything using green stuff, so this is going to be interest to say the least!

Thursday Night in the Shack

Down in the Hobby Shack last night for our usual Thursday gaming.

I took on Dave H's Dark Elves again, it's becoming a weekly match at this stage! Which I love as Dave is such a cool guy and we have the best games of Aggressive-hammer ever every week!

Short report I sent via TLC maiing list...

Quick report for myself, I played against my now Arch Nemesis Dave who have a host of DE fancyness; Corsairs, a hydra, lvl4 with snipy rod bow thing, cauldon of blood, spearmen, crossbowmen, 10 Cold One Knights ... I have to say it was great variety!

I brough a lvl4 Sorcerer of Tzeentch, Exaulted Hero BSB, 24 Warriors, 5 Knights, 5 Warhounds, an 'invisable' (due to it not being ready yet!) warshrine and 3 Trolls (oh deary me I hear you all sigh).

Rolled Dawn Attack and Dave jacked the first turn of me, AH HERE!

I'll quickly sum this all up in the words of the watching PQ 'You're playin' shite', and right he was! I had no idea what was going on with the 800pt jump and kind of got lost without a map!

Dave battered me to bits, perfectly picking off my units and leaving the Warriors til last, hitting them in the flank with the Corsairs and the Hydra.....BOOM!

I made up for it a bit you Gatewaying 2 units but the damage was done and all was wiped out except for the Warshrine.

13 - 3 to Dave ..... I'll get you next week Dave!!!

Bought another pack of Skullcrushers too so I'll be having 4 of those beauties next week!

Games in the Shack

Was in the Hobby Shack last night for the usual Thursday games, so got 2 800pt games in with Dave and Elliott.

Elliott's report:

My second game was against Eoin's WoC. 

His list was a lot better this week. Level 2 with + 1 to cast. 12 or so WoC of tzeentch. 5 Knights of tzeentch and 2 units of 5 Dags.
My list was slightly different. I dropped my warriors and added loadsa RxBmen into the unit I had. Dropped shadow for metal and the rest was the same as previous weeks.
Again I castled in a corner. Hoping that my metal magic would help. It didn't. Eoin played a cracking game and used his magic very well to remove my shades and whittle down my RxBmen. He kept his knights an WoC together and made sure he got the charges he wanted in about turn 4. He got the knights into the corsairs and destroyed then in one round. The WoC and a unit of Dags went into the RxBmen and killed them outright. Great game and again I was outplayed and out thought in the magic phase. Well done to Eoin.
Eoin got everything.
I got nothing.
It ended 10-0 to Eoin. 

Also what he didn't mention was that unlike last week, I didn't fail every armour, difficult terrain and panic test I rolled!

A good evening was had by all!

Paintathon is on Sunday week (25th Nov) so I'll bring the rest of my Warriors, Hellstriders and a Sorcerer to paint.
I'll bring 800pts with me too for a quick game with Dave to break up the day. I can't sit and paint for 11 hours straight!!!

It's hard to keep this up!

It sure is hard to keep up this blogging! What with work and home getting in the way!

I will however have some time this evening to finish (hopefully) a third Chaos Warrior and maybe even get the Sorcerer started too.

So here's hoping!!
