  • Next week already? *sigh* I feel almost criminally guilty.  My primary tournament this year the team tournament, and Goatboy is responsible for all the work!  It makes sense, to keep the look of the armies consistent, but there you go.  All in all though, it’s probably a good thing.  All...

  • I got all hot and heavy over the Necrons not too long back, even picking up Gauthic’s old army in trade for Tau. (Speaking of, Gauthic old chum, 4-weeks is an eternity in blogging… how about an update?) I built up a list though numerous practice games, but set them...
