Thought that it was about time that I actually wrote something on here.
I will post up the details of the Tallarn 117th soon. Sufice to say that I have about 15,000 armies on the go at once and I am constantly switching between them all.
To prove that I have a Tallarn army here are some preliminary pictures of a basic colour scheme and squad.
So anyway, to business.
5th Ed 40K is just around the corner. I know people who have already got their hands on the new rules and am very jealous. I will be visiting my local GW to pick up copy on Sunday. (I have prior arrangements on the Saturday). I have planned to play a game with the new rules in store that day against a friends Orks.
This means I need an army. Now it would be very easy to pull together the pieces of my Dark Angels or World Eaters, but new rules deserve new armies. So, after digging around in my countless boxes I have decided to make a start on the Apocalypse size pile of Tyranids I have.
A Genestealer Army.
Broodlord with feeder tendrils and toxin sacs
His retinue of 6 'Stealers with scything talons and toxin sacs
A Brood of 6 'Stealers
Another Brood of 6 'Stealers
A Brood of 8 Spinegaunts
and
A Brood of 8 Termagants
nicely rounds of at 500 points. Now, I have looked at this over a long period of time and I know that my mate will be bringing as many Orks as he can fit into 500pts. This is around 40!
I will be out-numbered, but if I can get a charge of with the Broodlord, retinue and another Brood I should be able to eliminate 20 Orks at a time. Ha, wishful thinking.
Anywho, will post pictures of the Horde when I have taken some. (Only 5 days to go and have painted approx. 6 'Stealers. Oh dear.) I will also post a report on my first foray into 5th ed. 'Till then,
Cheers,
Bloodthirster
