I’ve finished another one of my Imperial Assault miniatures,
specifically Obi-Wan Kenobi. Here are a
few photos of him.
I’m really happy with how he turned out and he
makes a fine addition to my collection. I’m hoping to get some more games of IA in soon
as it’s a game which I have neglected of late, and with the new expansion
coming out soon I’d like to get some more experience of playing.

I recently purchased the Gaslands rulebook with the aim of playing
the game very soon. In the run up to this however I’ve been converting
up some Hotwheels by putting some weapons on them. Having read the rulebook whilst I was away in
Manchester I’ve concluded that it looks like a really fun (and cheap) game to get
into, sort of a cross between X-Wing and
Necromunda. So far I think I’ve spent around
£30 on it, including the rulebook and plastic templates. Now to find some time to play it.

Last weekend I played in a local Shadespire tournament . I decided to use my Stormcast warband from
the core game (As I’ve had the most experience with them and more importantly
they’re fully painted). Regrettably Shadespire
has been another game which I’ve not had much time to play, and this showed as
I had forgotten half the rules and my deck build wasn’t very good. As a result I lost my first 3 games. Fortunately we were playing a swiss round tournament
so my games got more evenly matched as I progressed and in the end I managed to
win my final two games (although they were very close) and ended up coming 6th,
which is more impressive than it sounds as there were only 8 people in
the tournament. Still I got some cool
prizes out of it.
I also purchased the new Farstriders warband (Which I have now finished painting) I’m hoping to get
some more games in with them soon, so I can see what they are like.

Today I assembled my new Choas Blood Bowl team. Having just finished the Rygas League with my
Lizardmen I’d been thinking of a new team to try out and I really liked the
look of the new Chaos team so opted for them.
I think I’m going to paint them as a Tzeentch team, especially as I’ve
converted up Ogroid Thaumaturge to be my Minotaur. I’m
hoping to get them painted up relatively soon, though I have a lot of other
projects to finish as I’ve been finding it hard to stay motivated recently so
who knows how much progress I will make.
