Well its 2023........



Well yeah 2023 is here.....by 10 days ago...Travelling through the Warp is hard as it is.

So long time no update. House has been a construction zone since September due to another water leak from Refrigerator line (again) no time line on completion due to lack of materials, work backed up etc. While working on the 5 Paladins I had an incident that pretty much ended me working on them.  I was painting in master bedroom with poor lighting, because my hobby area is a storage area for all the furniture in my house and one day during house keeping I was not paying attention and pushed the paint pots into the 5 paladins and even though they were magnetized, 3 of them popped of the metal tray and fell off the shelf and tray. Fortunately I was able to recover all the pieces and put them on the tray. Needless to say I was :cuss: mad at myself and shelved the project.

So I dropped off posting on Blog, on B&C, Work took over life and by Thanksgiving week I had to take a break from it all before I lost it.

I did accomplish a few things during break. I was able to finally get most of my old room at Parents cleaned up. Also found lots of EC, IF, and MK IV marines for HH. Which I promptly sold or traded to the guys in Metal Head Armory. 

I was able to play my First game of HH Age of Darkness Raven Guard vs Entropomancer's Iron Warriors. Love my Seekers......but overall lost game to bad leadership rolls....and I do mean bad. While on that topic my Raven Guard are at the I need to clear coat stage of paint so hopefully I'll get some pics.

Well the next "Season" for Warhammer was announced "Arks of Omen" and Chapter Approved with massive points changes, rule changes, and new force org charts.

Book 1 of 4 is in store Saturday 




The most important thing that is coming out of this to me is this



Freaking Boarding actions!

I was cleaning and looked at the Paladins and finally decided to fix them.....Boarding actions and Arks of Omen may have have something to do with this.  I then ordered 2 more boxes of GK Terminators with a 3rd being picked up as part of the trade for MK4 marines plus other stuff I received.  The plan is to build the 2 boxes as Squad 5 and Squad 6 of terminators (halberds and Incinerator, Swords and Incinerator).  3rd box is to build the non special Weapon model for Squad Armand De Pergord, Squad 5, and Squad 6.

So with Arks of Omen and Boarding actions coming out this weekend Ill be trying to get those models ready for so Space hulk style shenanigans against my friends.  
 
As a side note I finished painting 69 models in 2022, 31 of those were Grey Knight Terminator armor (out of the 52 I needed to paint- 59% completion). Not bad for me
