Battle Report: 3rd Annual Inner Circle High Stakes Jamboree

Inner Circle Gaming Club

A week after my wedding I was given the nod by my new wife (I guess I did a good enough job to warrant a day pass).

The Details!!!
2000 point 3 round tournament, random missions and game length. No painting but WYSIWYG
$25 Gate Fee, includes lunch (surprisingly good in the past!)
Each win gets you $10 in store credit, additional prized for Most VP killed and Least VP given up.

The Prep:

Breaking from my 1850 list I normally field, I chatted with Brandon about ideas about what to do with the extra 150 points. Being very underwhelmed by a Librarian on Bike (too expensive and weak psychic powers) Dropping the Typhoon I gained another 90 points and decided to add 9 scout bikers with a power fist… So pulling from the junkyard of broken toys I stayed up late and repaired and based 9 “scout” bikers…

I promptly forgot them that morning…

I know its poor excuse but it’s true…

I know its poor excuse but it’s true…

Totally not related to the hobby, and everyone runs behind in projects.

Hell I have seen many a thread about how no one wants to hear the excuses as to why but damn mine’s good..

I’m getting married this week…

The Adeptus Mechanicus Project

The Skitarii Warrior..P

 WIP Part 1

Starting with a basic paint scheme I started to play around with the “Prototype” Admech warrior.. I only call him a prototype, considering I have 40+ fully assembled and another 70 staged, because as I mentioned before this is the model I plan to use to test the paint pallet on.

I did end up taking some of the provided advice, trimming off "most" mold lines etc..

The Adeptus Mechanicus Project

The Skitarii Warrior..

 I have been saving bits, bobs, drawing sketches and planning this out for the whole 3 years I have been in the hobby. The insanity includes collecting over 200 servo-skulls from every line (25mm, battlefleet gothic, forge world and even the inquisitorial scale); 155+ “power plants” and practically thousands of bits to make this happen.

Woot!! Voted for top list of 2011 by interwebs celeb..

Shameless self promotion, but is there any other kind?

Post on Blood of Kittens by TastyTaste, I was nominated one of the top five army lists of 2011, then reposted by my friends at White Scars I finally found out yesterday when my friend Andrew dropped me a PM..

Shameless Self promotion over, back to drinking eggnog.. Happy Holidays everyone

New Round of Bases.... AdMech Factory Ruins

Adeptus Mechanicus Bases!!

Sorry for the delay in posts, I won’t bore you with all the “fun” things I have keeping me busy at the moment but I am hoping to make a couple big announcements in the next several weeks..

Bases are WIP pre-cast. I did a nice sloppy wash to bring up some of the details due to the white on white plasticard work.

25mm's

40mm's

Bikes's

60mm's

I am really happy with the 60mm and the 40mm bases, “like” the bike’s and am as happy with the 25mm’s as I can be… The small size and making them generic enough to fit any type of standard foot on them is pretty restrictive.

The 120mm Ovals are coming in the next two weeks, I ran out both the base size and time for this production run.

As always feedback welcome!
