So the dust has settled and I finally have some time to collate some of the photos I took of the Strike Team Kickstarter box. There was a lot, I haven't started on the scenery yet, so here is a short update of the models I have unboxed. More photos to come but that will be another blog post.</div>

Here we have the Enforcers Captain - REALLY nice model but not well cast. Sadly the cloak has a huge cast line through the back of it and its very thin, so I doubt will file down very well without the use of green stuff to bulk it out and smooth over. There were a few casting lines over the model, but on the whole, he is pretty cool. </div>

Ok these will make great substitute models for Orks - particularly Mega Armoured Nobz. I particularly liked the buzz saw and the captain model. These were actually fairly good casts, very little casting lines were left on them, just a little tidying up required.<br />

I did get asked to throw up some scale shots, so we could compare these models to other 28mm stuff - here you can see how the Enforcer Captain and Sniper Specialist fare to an Imperial Guard Captain and Dark Reaper Exarch model. Not bad!</div>

Within the Kickstarter box, you get all the rules and counters you need to play and not one, but TWO gaming mats. First the paper version, which is fine but the really great one is the printed mat - it's so much better to play on and has much more durability. The scenery sprues are great from a first glance, they are very very tough plastic (I think most of the models are a weird mix of resin and plastic - plastic glue was useless on them - use superglue instead)</div>

<a name='more'></a>Saving almost the best until last for today... The Third Gen Plague... this thing is huge. It's bigger than anything else in the box set, even the Reb's Terraton doesn't max to this thing! Sadly mine came with a bent foot - but I found if you drop the model just for a few seconds in boiling water, you can repose them without breaking anything, they set within seconds of coming out of the water and you can't tell they've been changed. It also worked for various small weapons that got bent in transit - just heat them up and gently bend them back to shape. This model will be used a lot... in fact when I get my first retailer shipment I will personally order 5-10 of these for converting to my 40K Possessed...</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
That's it for now... I will get more photos up soon of each faction in more detail - please make requests and I will try my best to photo the bits you want me to.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Now to decide how much of a discount to give off on the Deadzone boxed sets...</div>

As Games Workshop announced the festivity treat of the Advent Calendar - rumours are abound the Internet of the coming of old characters, one of my personal favourites - Cypher.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In it's fairly well done (IMHO) but very obvious spoiler, here's the GW video:</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
When Dark Vengeance hit, the first thing I did was to convert the DA Librarian to a counts as Cypher, I couldn't use him, but damn - the model looked cool and I'd have it anyway.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Here's a snap of the WIP - I plan to go to town on this one, including tidying up the armour and making it look like an older suit, complete with studs and much more detailing to the sword behind. I'm thinking of adding chains and green stuffing some more details.</div>

To go with him, I have a lot of the DV Dark Angels to shave and tidy up, then make them more ancient and heresy era with studs and green stuff. I can then play them as either pre-heresy Dark Angels or Fallen Angels in my Black Legion force. Win/Win! </div>

<h3>
Inquisitor Hellyos</h3>
First up is an old model I created when Daemon Hunters was released... yeah... a long time ago! I really liked the idea of a book worm inquisitor with a large pistol. This guy is pretty basic, but in mind fits the role nicely.<br />
<br />
<br />
Not too bad for a model I painted a few years ago!<br />

Brother Armond</h3>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Now we move onto a recent WIP of mine, a Deathwing Leader painted up as a commission piece in the colours requested. I still need to add a layer to the whites and blues, then tidy up the whole armour. Then I will crack on with the sword - possibly painting it up in brown and bone effect, to create a nice relic blade.</div>

<h3 style="text-align: left;">
Traitor Lord Commissar </h3>
<div style="text-align: left;">
My real passion though is my Black Legion, which has just taken on a whole raft of new recruits from a defeated Imperial Guard force. They are now traitors, and this chap will be my Traitor Lord Commissar - even they can fall from grace... This one has suffered some minor mutations that mark him out for greatness! I wanted to kit bash an old Vampire I laying around, this fit perfectly. Cadian legs, bit of green stuff and hey presto... fairly "smart" uniform to denote his previous rank and bits to tie him to my Black Legion and he on his way. Just need to tidy the clothes up a little on the green stuff, but this will be done soon. </div>

I took the standard model of Typhus and cut into it, removing the torso (the metal one! not the finecast one). When I had the legs free, I then cut into Archaon (Warhammer) and trimmed his cloak, bent it down and added a bit GS to tidy it up. I grabbed the Ork head from an Armageddon Steel Legion Sgt, and built the scythe from the Warhammer Nurgle lord and plasticard. Guitar wire was the used to provide pipes as above, then lots of GS to bulk out the stomach and sculpt minor details like hair on one of the skulls and the back pack. I had to build that entirely from GS and plastic tubes to mimic the destroyer hive on the normal Typhus model.</div>

<br />
I have always wanted to write a book, and the Horus Heresy and Gaunts Ghost's books really gave me the bug to get on with it.<br />
<br />
So here is my first attempt, it doesn't have a title yet, and this is only 3000 words (give or take) but it's from the first chapter.<br />
<br />
Be kind. Well, don't be kind but appreciate my spelling isn't the best in the world.<br />

<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-size: x-small;">The first dawn had passed on Zyphas, the
planets sole star passing overhead to warm the bitter cold ground from the
nightmare that had been the dark hours.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Men and women cowered with fear as the last remnants of the evening
vanished, allowing them a brief moment of almost peace – the calm before the
storm as it’s often called.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>As Morgaph
looked out over the frail forms of nearly thirty survivors making the journey
to the fields and shanty towns down river, he paused for a moment to look up to
the sky.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>As the light from the dawn
broke the darkness, the scene reminded him of a childhood story where light
fights the dark, and eventually a hero emerges and destroys the darkness
forever.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Never had he thought the story
could come true, until they arrived.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-size: x-small;">The voices of the survivors rattled
around the small confines of the shanty town hall, the largest building in the
area capable of holding such a rabble in any formality.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Morgaph was the first to break the noise with
a calming yet overpowering voice – <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">“They
will be here soon, the landing was not far from here and we know of no other
settlement that has survived.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We need to
find shelter, we don’t know which side they are on”</i> <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-size: x-small;">As he spoke, the gathering quietened,
the look of sudden understanding spreading like fire throughout every face in
the room.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Not one soul needed reminding
of the terrors that hunt in the night on Zyphas, the thought that something
worse had come for them in the daylight didn’t sit well.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>A riot broke out, first just a scream, then
panic and rushing to exit.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The larger of
the survivors pushed through the masses and inflicted more harm than good,
bones breaking and any sense of order diminished – a free for all riot of fear
and the very real need to escape taking over the small amount of control that
remained.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">

<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-size: x-small;">Morgaph exited from the rear of the
building, lighting one of the very last smoke sticks he had left.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>All things considered, he thought to himself,
there may not be another chance.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The
stick never made it to his lips, his body fell backwards with a small wound
just starting to trickle blood down his brow.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">

would remember his death.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-size: x-small;">Watching in complete silence, save for
the voice in his mind, Ancronir the silent studied the scene.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The human had been easy, he had to die as he
showed the traits of one who could lead the rabble.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>That would only detract from this exercise
and delay the coming of the Majir.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>He
settled the scope of the long rifle, breathing gently as he sourced his next
target. The voice in the back of his mind suddenly came to the fore <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">“Do it… Kill it!”</i> “<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Quickly!”</i> Ancronir fought the urge to just shoot everything wildly,
remembering less often that his body was own his and his skills were still
useful to the Majir, despite the growing voice within to forget the past and
just shed blood.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>No, this time he
thought to himself it would be his way, not the voices way.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Ancronir put pressure to the trigger grip,
squeezing slowly as if savouring the joy of every moment, watching down his
scope as he sighted the next prey, he felt the mechanical pull of the spring
beneath the grip, the inner workings of the long rifle as if in slow motion –
the sudden acceleration of the projectile firing down the barrel.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>He held is breath just enough to watch the
moment of impact, a split second after pulling the trigger the prey fell. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

the whites of their eyes, they ran on, Moira put her hand to her neck and tried

Its been awhile, which is both good and bad. I have recently started a new company (www.M247.com) and hobby time has dwindled down to very little!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Although, pleasantly I have found the staff receptive to trying new things, so almost every Thursday night we have a games night. My regular opponent had to ditch, so I made the most of it, with 5 other eager volunteers.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
M247 have a great space that they are happy for us staff to use, so we set about turning our conference room into our gaming room for the night. The scene was set for a 6 player "Intro Game" to 40K.</div>

I had about 3K of my Black Legion with me, so I split this into 2 roughly equal forces (One themed more around traitor guard than CSM's) led by a Tzeentch Sorcerer. The other side was a smaller more hard hitting force that had come to punish the upstart sorcerer and his rebellion. The game would last a random amount of turns from turn 4 onwards, and the objective was to hold the temple in the middle of the board with a unit at least 50% or more strong.</div>
