Heresy mans!
Playing a lot more with weathering on this army, the boxdread was the first yellow vehicle I've painted and the first time doing weathering on something that size. I feel like I've improved a bunch between it and the leviathan, but I've been looking at this for inspiration and still have a ways to go to get to it. Going to start on some tanks as soon as a few more paints show up.

:siren:Escape from Dalton IV after-action report:siren:
Everyone except one person has completed the survey, so I'm calling it a wrap. Thanks to everyone who attended. Final score was 113 to 94 in favour of the loyalists. RIP warmaster Panascope, who is a confirmed looser.




Most people strongly disagreed with the most important thing:


However feedback on the event was overwhelmingly positive:





People really enjoyed the new format:





:siren:Where we're going from here::siren:
The PNW goons have been playtesting Tactical Strike+ for about two years now. After about 30 games, we feel really good about it. It has the potential to catch on in the community:

quote:

Even though this was only the second time I've hammed in a very long time, it was the most fun I've ever had doing so. Smaller-scaled skirmishes with hard caps on armor and points are extremely my poo poo, and remind me of when I played in 3rd and 4th edition and we didn't have to worry about Knights, Titans, and Baneblades flying out of peoples' asses. The Land Raider truly raided the land and we had to gather round the radio at night to hear the president's address.

We're polishing up the rulebook to make sure that it can stand on it's own. Once that's done we're going to release v2.04 to the public. We'll share it throughout the 30k community and hope people have fun playing it. Later this year we'll do a 3rd revision, which will include an official way to tie TS+ into regular games of 30k, 30k campaigns, and any balance issues we might get from the community along the way.

Meanwhile, we're going to do two things:
1) Host more events up here in the PNW with smaller sized games and more alcohol
2) Kickoff an invite-only 3 month long global campaign, so everyone here can play TS+. This will include a map of places you can play missions, some light fluff, and a place you can submit results that contribute to the total score

Goal will be to kick off the campaign towards the end of April and wrap it up at the end of July. After that we can do skullapalooza 2.0

Hell yeah, he's shaped up nicely. It's a great model and using him as a rogue trader is a good way to incorporate some poofy sleeves and eccentric, giant feathers into any army. Even if you didn't know what a flamberge was...
