Manic Monday #77

 

Well another weekend has came and went. Painted models, built a model, and played a Campaign Game for the Metal Head Armory Necromunda League. 

Painting/ Hobby Time:

On Monday in the Necromunda Campaign Rackets and Crock Pots the GM Entropmancer random drew our Rackets. I got Settlement Protection and Whisper Brokers. With Settlement Protection I was able to get 1 free Hanger On. Unfortunately I am lacking the parts to make the Flagellant but I did have parts to make a Hive Preacher.

Hive Preacher Olaf

Thursday evening/ Friday morning I finished my Bolter and Chainsword 12 Months of Hobby Challenge July Vow #3 and the priest for my Plodding Along Vow.

And then began working on the 5 Acolytes remaining, and by Friday evening 2 Acolytes were completed

Saturday I did some light running around and then  had my challenge Match against Unkle Sterben's Orlocks more on that later.

Saturday evening  I was tired after playing my campaign game but I managed to build another Zealot named Dumah for my Gang.

And to wrap up the weekend I was able to finish a 3rd Acolyte leaving 2 more to get done by the end of the month. 

• Completed Model Count for 2022: 68 models
• Warhammer New Years Resolution (Paint all 52 GK Terminators by 12/31): 30 of 52- 57% Complete 
• Bolter & Chainsword: 12 Months of Hobby Challenge: Jan-Mar, June, July- Completed

Game Time

So this week I challenged Unkle Sterben to a Necromunda game. The Racket I chose was Peddlers of Forbidden Lore, since this would link my Whisper Brokers Racket (D3 additional Tactic cards), and  allow me to choose which racket we are fighting over, and re-rolling priority if I win for PoFL Racket. Lots on stack after last weeks non showing. Entropmancer rolled the mission an scenario. Luckily for me it was Zone Mortalis so Blaze could be very dangerous. Unkle Sterben rolled badly for his deployment and deployed his gang. I stacked my Gang in my deployment zone and the game Began. Unkle Sterben won the priority roll and went first. Turn outs there was only 2 doors we could use to get into combat with each other. First turn was just redeploying of models with one door open. I lost priorty again and the shooting commenced.

 Unkle Sterben open fired with his harpoon gun and missed my Deacon with an Eviscerator, Deacon with a fire pike returned fire and set the 2 Orlocks on fire with one gaining a serious wound and leaving game. Next Unkle Sterben braved the guys on fire and open fired with his combat shotgun on the deacon with Eviscerator but only managed to blast the Deacon's cherub off the table. My Next turn saw me boss open a door and fire his exterminator into the Orlock Juves behind the door. One ran 11 inches while on fire the other ran 5 and the guy closest to door was pinned. And the juve got back up and attempted to auto pistol my Boss only to knock his cherub to the ground with a injury. My Brethren with  Grenade Launcher moved up and fired at the down models my Deacon had set on fire earlier, removing a second model. We both finished moving models and looked at the table. He had his boss and pet a broken juve and 2 gangers standing with 4 models down and 2 out. He voluntarily bottled to save his guys from the slaughter.

PoFL Racket achieved. With the money I earned this game and last week I was able to buy another Zealot Dumah, armor for zealots, incombustible hambruk for fire pike deacon and skin blade for the boss.

Well it is amazing what a few days off  (Wed- Sun) will do for you. I was able to get a ton of painting done this weekend, with the exception of Sunday, but still painted. I feel rested and ready to get this week over with to take Thurs- Mon, off. Hurray Holiday Weekend. Well lets get busy talking about the paint projects and Hobby life.

With Metal Head Armory Necromunda Campaign starting soon, I really needed to decide on which gang to build. Well So Far we have: Van Saar, Goliath, Cawdor, Orlock, Enforcers, Corpse Grinder cult (questionable) and well either my Delaque or Cawdor, or Redemptionist....So full blown Redemptionist it is. I needed to restart my 12 months of Hobby challenge on Bolter and Chainsword so I vowed my Redemptionist. So step 1 ensuring I had enough models built for starting 1250 credits. I didn't so I had to convert a Brethren Specialist with Grenade Launcher

Cherubs I stole from my Adepta Sororitas before finding 2 unbuilt ones

So I primed them Wraithbone and went to work on a test model. 

Brethren Specialist Camael

I was very happy with how he came out. so I started working on more of them.

And eventually I started just working on model to replicate the Specialist's scheme

Brethren Specialist Camael, Deacon Sarathiel, and Cherub Asmodel

Well by the time the weekend was done this is where I am at with my Redemptionist Gang "By Faith and Fire"

and I did locate my "Rogue Doc" Figure I'm using for my gangs.

Model is from the old Tanith First and Only Pewter kit, Chief Surgeon Tolin Dorden.  I need to strip the model and start prepping him for games.

On the non painting hobby front, Book of the Outlands which has VDR in it was released. 

I was not going to buy it but the local Warhammer Store said it will be part of the next years campaign along with Book of the Outcasts.

So I will need to  get a copy of the Book of Outcasts too. I think I am going to pick up the Necromunda Hive War box set, for the terrain and models.

This would give me the much need 10 more Delaque models I need, Terrain, Entropmancer needs a new rulebook, and accessories we will need. And well the Eschers....Yeah I may build and paint them.

And on Preorder this saturday.......

In other Hobby news, Bolter & Chainsword has gone through a major upgrade on servers, and well they added new Moderators, including yours truly, so I will definitely be busy on there.

 Wow I cant believe I got this much done over the Holiday weekend....and it was only 2 of my 4 days off I did hobby stuff.

Thursday Afternoon, I had my knock dust off game of Necromunda as the Warhammer - Goodyear Necromunda Campagin starts this week. Well I'd love to say I won..... I didn't. I did win melee and seriously injure one of my guys due to his own bomb rat....But it was fun overall. I need to redo my list. 

I got home and started working on my Inquisitorial Section and finished Razorback #2 (no pictures taken) for 40k. Not Necromunda like Ishould have. 

This continued through to Friday and this is where I left off.

Also I am planning on entering Bolter and Chainswords 12 month challenge and My Warhammer Goodyear - New Year's Resolution was to paint 40 Grey Knight Terminators by 12/31/2022.

First Entry will be finish this squad of Terminators:

What a craptastic week. Planned keeping the momentum from last week and was only able to hobby Monday night last week and that was adding technical paint to bases. 

Lots of Doctors visits, surgeries, vet visits, etc not a good weekend or Week for that matter. I'm fine it was all my parents/

Did order more Seceret Weapon concrete wash, picked up White Dwarf # 469 still waiting on #468 tho. 

I need to work on my Redemptionist gang pretty quick for January's Necromunda League at the Warhammer Goodyear store. I am supposed to build and not prime the models but I have to figure out my list too. Off to Yaktribe I go
