The Deathwing!

I discovered this past week that I will be out of a town for a mate's 30th over the weekend of the club tourney. I am devastated. However, this means I can move away from tuning a list and instead just bring random (often bad) 1500 point lists to our regular game nights for people to practice against. This week I was playing an opponent who uses weak CSM lists so I thought I'd bring something a bit more funky as well: The Deathwing!

Playtesting the mediocre demi-company

Sup y'all. I've played a few games with my battle company list and thought I'd document the results. My first game was against Eldar and I made a mess of things strategically. I won my next two games against Tau and space wolves. Drop pods really hurt my list. Here's what I've been using:

Hobby Time: Chapter Master on bike

Sup y'all? Time for a hobby post. Today I am showcasing my 90% finished chapter master. The fluff for my chapter (the emperor's ghosts) is that their bike company have a different colour scheme (crows on tombstones) to the rest of the chapter (metal armour with white faces). This is because the chapter eschews ridiculous ancient warfare tactics like charging around on bikes (fluffy ghost armies use a lot of planes and mechanised infantry). The Chapter Master, brother John Smith, utilises the typical colour scheme, except that when he mounts up he gets on one of the crow-wing bikes. That is what you see here.

Playtesting lists for the next 2 months

I have narrowed down my list for my local club tournament to the following two battle company lists, which I will be playtesting over the next two months. There is a warm-up tournament at the end of August and then the main event is at the end of September. I will be posting a lot of pictures as I prepare my lads and my display board because I realise I don't do enough hobby articles on this blog, more below:
