March?? Really?? Really handn't realised it had been that long since I posted anything.
Ok, as I've said, my laptop died a hard death a couple months ago. So some of these have been finished a while, just haven't been able to upload till now.

First up;

BA Tactical Squad led by Sergeant Daleal.

Figures of note are these 2 converted from LotD figures.



BA Assault Squad led by Sergeant Garibaldi.

Figures of note.

So latest Tempus Fugitives took my Worldeaters with new Angron model to battle against the loyal forces of the Emperor.
Angron turned out to be a beast, but also found 20 man squads to be very effective.

Game 1 - Blood Angels - single planet strike
Defending my Indomitable Fortress against a horde of Blood Angel Assault marines with a couple of Custodians. Angron got into the fray - game over
Win for the Worldeaters 157 vp to 64 vp

Game 2 - Salamanders & RavenGuard - double planet strike
I was joined by a DeathGuard player from my faction.
The Salamanders were joined by some Mechanicum and launched a Teleport attack killing 19 of 20 Worldeater Devastators....
Then it all went sour for the Imperials as Angron and Typhus went on the rampage.
Win for the Warmaster Forces - 223 vp to 22 vp.

Game 3 - Dark Eldar - single heavy assault force 2500pts
Never faced Dark Eldar with the Worldeaters, had a terrible time with reserves with only Devastators and Angron on the table for 3 turns. This...

I thought a blog would help me keep on top of my project!

So this last weekend I went along to Conflict 2011 - a new type of FoW event, instead of Tournament based line ups, each Player had to decide if they were going to be on the either the Allies or Axis side; armies and scenery would be themed to be Normandy & 'Hells Highway' era's.

So I decided to throw in with the Germans and planned out 4 lists to try my skills with:
1 - FestungKompanie defending the Atlantic Wall
2 - PanzerKompanie racing to intercept the invading Allies.
3 - Schwere PanzerKompanie defiantly blocking the Allies advance.
Day 2 - my FallschirmjagerKompanie led by Von der Heydte would try and inflict as much damage on the Allied forces pushing towards Arnhiem.

A great weekend was had, managed to win 3 games of the 5. But really liked the theme that the weekend promoted in peoples armies.

Next Year sounds like it might be a Bagration Themed event - so I might have to pull out the Russian hordes for that one.

Anyway, attached is a write up of my battles and opponents....

Hey folks.

I'll start by saying, I'm not hugely into historical modelling. I prefer Sci-Fi and at a push, Fantacy. Don't get me wrong, I do enjoy watching war movies / series and documentaries. And I have built model aircraft both WW2 and more recent over the years. But as far as table top is concerned, it never interested me.

However... After having a couple demo games that I really enjoyed, and seeing the level of interest that Bolt Action is gaining at a local gaming store... I decided to get a bit of a small force. My favourite WW2 show has always been Band of Brothers. I don't know why, but it just clicks with me. So my first set has to be the Screaming Eagles.

The set is of 21 men and includes:
An Officer, Platoon Sergeant, Radio Operator and a Medic.
10 Parratroopers including 2 Sergeants. 1 with Thompson, the other with M1 Carbine. The othe 8 have M1 Garands.
2 man .30 Cal LMG team. 2 man Bazooka team. And a 60mm Mortar with 3 crew.

On to pictures. To be noted before anyone...
