Monster Hunting Bikes and Space Hulk

Allow me to start off saying that I really like the Space Marine codex, there are a ton of options which is only a good thing. Just like any release there are part that someone won't like, for me that is most of the new options. I really like the anti air tanks but the Centurions of both flavors don't really do it for me. Grav guns have been on my negative view roster until the other day when I was thinking about using them on bikes. I will go into that later on in the post. In my free time I have been watching a few videos on the Spce Hulk video game and while they are entertaining to watch the comments section bugs me due to people's over zealous nature in attacking the game and trying to poke holes in the logic of terminators in spcae hulks. Instead of getting into arguments all over YouTube that won't do anything I am going to address it all in this post. If you follow this link it will take you to GW's website and you can view an army by a gentleman named Teemu Valve who has a BEAUTIFUL Carcharodons space marines army. It is well worth a look. http://www.games-workshop.com/gws/wnt/blog.jsp?pid=11000026

Moving on Up in the World 2,000Views!!!!

2,000 page hits is awesome! Thanks to all of you that have visited the page. I didn't do anything special for 1,000 views so I decided to do something different and allow all of you wonderful people to hear the sound of my voice. I took my most popular post and made a YouTube battle report out of it. I will be the first to admit that the result is not perfect but for a first attempt I am somewhat pleased with the end product. If you amazing people like it please let me know and I will see about converting past battle write ups into these video reports as well as doing it for future games. As always I have a ton of ideas for what to do in the future so your input is always appreciated and let's me know where my attention should be. The link to the report is below. I hope you enjoy it and as always have an Emperor blessed day.

Evolution of a List

For those that have seen my battle reports my list has essentially stayed the same with only minor changes. This particular build has been getting modified for a hell of a long time by this point and I am sure that there will still be some modifications that will be made in the future. In this post I really just want to look at the evolution of my current list starting from where it began to where it was at in my last battle report. This has the potential to be a rather long post so don't say you weren't warned hahaha!

Space Marine 1500 points; Iron Hands and White Scars

Developing lists is a huge part of this game and one of my favorite things to do in my copious amount of free time. I built this list with the purpose of creating something balanced, fun, and hopefully a little competitive. It's a little bit of mech with a lot of bodies, 52 Space Marines with a few vehicles seems like a good balance to me. Continue reading to see the list and my analysis of how the list works as a whole.

Space Marine Codex Review: Chapter Relics and Custom Characters

Just like the title suggests I will be going over the 6 chapter relics and the 7 regular characters you can make. So far I am really liking this book, I will never complain about having so many options and we are not even out of the HQ section of the book yet. There are some awesome characters that you can make yourself with the inclusion of the relics so instead of hinting at it let's just get to it.
