I did just buy a box of Blightlord Terminators to go with my Death Guard. Though I will be playing Grimdark Future rather than 40k. Just not a fan of their rules or the 3 year edition churn cycle. Attached File I'd love to play some Rogue Trader. I need to paint up those 2e tactical squads I have. |

My good friend is very into 40K and he got a few of us into playing the Deathwatch RPG. He's running the game and has done as awesome job writing our campaign (we're about 6 months into it). He even built and painted minis for our individual space marine characters and it's been a ton of fun. We just had our most recent session on Sunday at my place and I grilled up some steaks for lunch  We've also been playing Space Marine 2 a lot on PC/Steam. |

I need to paint up those 2e tactical squads I have. Great looking figs. I am also stepping off the 3-year cycle, and will be playing OPR, too. I just need to find a player group. My Knights will become Titan Lords. I bought the Horus Heresy Mk.VI Tactical Squad box (20 figs) just because I love 2e Beakies so much. I shelled out for the re-print of the Rogue Trader book, too. Ah, memories. Best, JBR |

Not to mention some 28mm old west figures for my cowboy games. |

| I decided not to buy any more stuff from GW a while back due to how over-priced it is. But I'm definitely getting the new Vulkan model and the Salamanders combat patrol that's coming out. I started my 40k collecting during 9th so this is the first opportunity for me to buy a specific box for my chosen Army. |

You had me confused for a minute and I thought that Vulkan was announced to return, not Vulkan He'stan.

In happier news, my brother bought me a JoyToy Custodes Dread. The Achillus. Naturally, I can't let him be home alone, so I ordered a Galatus too. The size, detail, and range of motion is impressive. Plus, it costs less than a Forge World kit, and is 1/18th scale. Attached File Attached File Attached File Attached File Attached File Best, JBR |

Work in progress. Just finished printing and assembling this Chaos Knight Despoiler to use in my Death Guard army, Mortarian's Hammer detachment. Two d6+3 battle cannons, with rapid fire. So possibly 4d6+12 attacks (36) if within 36". Any thoughts on how to paint. Base entire thing in Death Guard green? Or more of a cream/green pattern like 30K death guard? Ignore the flowers in the background! |

I like the idea of using 30k colors and making them chaos-y in some way. That's what I did with the Knights I've painted so far. I used bone white, instead of bright white as the main color and washed it so it's grimy. |

Then hand paint or airbrush the Death Guard green. Great minds think alike. |

As far as I know, no word has been put out on if they're covering The Scouring or covering other events. It's just assumed they're going to cover The Scouring. |
